Online Spring Festival Gala: Wang Bingbing's stunning voice, Da Zhang Wei sang funny, and the four CCTV mouths won the house
Recently, the flavor of the New Year has gradually become stronger, and CCTV took the lead in launching the first shot of the Spring Festival Gala.
CCTV specially chose the northern Chinese New Year's Eve to launch the annual online Spring Festival Gala, so that both online and offline are full of joyful atmosphere for the New Year.
Although it is called the Internet Spring Festival Gala, in fact, this party was also broadcast simultaneously on CCTV one and three sets, and the ratings were good, winning the first place in the ratings of the night.
This year's online Spring Festival Gala still takes a small and exquisite route, with only a small circular stage, but the three sides of the stage are hung with suspended LED screens, which can create a different sense of space according to the needs of the program.
Don't think that this is just a small Chinese New Year's Eve Spring Festival Gala and think it is average, although the specifications are not as good as the gala of the Chinese New Year's Eve, but the online Spring Festival Gala is easy and grounded in the program, and the form is more innovative.
The whole party has a unique flavor to watch, and it is full of highlights.
First, the host show
As we all know, CCTV hosts are all-rounders, not only can speak, but also sing.
It's a pity that although they appear in front of the camera every day, there are not many opportunities to make this group of hosts raise their voices, so every time they open their voices, the audience feels extraordinarily novel.
And on this year's Chinese New Year's Eve, 5 CCTV hosts were allowed to sing on stage in one breath, which is really a host show.
The first host to take the stage was Wang Bingbing, a beautiful host who has been in the limelight in the past two years, and she partnered with young actor Xu Weizhou to sing a song "Mountains and Rivers are Good".
Although she sang on stage, Wang Bingbing did not wear a gorgeous dress like a female star, but chose a set of taro-colored small fragrance suit with a bit of casual style, which neither lost the dignity of the CCTV host, nor was she as serious as usual, which was a very suitable dress.
During the singing, Wang Bingbing frequently showed her signature Wang smile, as sweet as ever, and her voice was as sweet as a person, singing this relaxed and pleasant little fresh wind "Mountains and Rivers are Good" is very infectious.
Although Wang Bingbing is sweet, she is not the most attractive host of the night, because CCTV also sent its own idol group-CCTV Boys to the stage.
The so-called CCTV Boys is a combination composed of the four pillars of today's CCTV, including Zhu Guangquan, Sa Beining, Kang Hui, Nigmaiti, such a lineup, the highlights are not inferior to those men's groups in the entertainment industry - it has been proved that the stage strength of the four pillars is stronger than that of men's groups.
The four of them sang a song "Kyushu Mythology" together that night, and as soon as they opened their mouths, they all had a round tone and a strong voice.
Although broadcasting and singing are two different things, I feel that they have been integrated, and the four of them actually sang the feeling of professional singers. Among them, Sa Beining also served as the soprano role, and a few treble notes were sung by him impassionedly and inspiringly.
To be honest, instead of inviting some actors who can't sing to sing on stage, it is better to give their own hosts a chance, their popularity is no worse than that of the actors, and their singing level is really much better than that of many actors.
2. Joyful Atmosphere Group
As a Spring Festival party, the most important thing is, of course, festive and lively, so a lot of lively programs were also arranged that night, mainly with joyful songs.
At the beginning of the party, there was a song that you knew was a divine comedy just by looking at the title of the song - "365 Blessings".
Before the opening, a sketch-style opening was also inserted, which was to let a young actor go around begging for red envelopes, and when he saw the scene of adults giving red envelopes to children, the New Year's flavor came out all of a sudden.
After the sketch, the dancers on the stage wore winter clothes, holding Spring Festival couplets and blessing characters to dance, and the lead singer Xilin Nayi Gao appeared in a sleeveless red dress around the neck, and the skirt was embroidered with a circle of fluffy decorations, which was festive and New Year's flavor.
The second program is "The Law of All Things in Bloom" sung by Da Zhang Wei, this song is like Da Zhang Wei's funny and nonsensical stage style, and the entire microphone stand is also wrapped with balloons, which can be called the most fancy microphone of the night.
Not only is he funny, but even the dancers are funny, the dancers' ornaments are folded with balloons, with the melody and lyrics of "The Law of All Things in Bloom", it feels like the whole party has become a jumping scene.
In addition, there is also "Happy Birth" sung by young artists such as Guan Chenchen and Duan Aojuan, which is also a catchy song, and the singers are all energetic young people, and the stage atmosphere is really very joyful.
Watching the party is a piece of music, the audience can't understand the dance that is too tall, and many people can't appreciate the bel canto of the spring and snow, like the Internet Spring Festival Gala, arrange a few songs that everyone will sing when they listen to it, which is very in line with the festival atmosphere.
Third, the tide of the Oriental country is full of flavor
From the night banquet of the Tang Palace to the horse-faced skirt to the Warring States robe, the tide of national style that has blown up in recent years is in the ascendant, and the online Spring Festival Gala has also taken this east wind, there are many national style theme programs in this year's program, the art of the ancestors and the aesthetics of CCTV are really very advanced.
The first program is called "My Hometown Shines", but it does not introduce the customs and customs of various places, but uses different national style instruments to play folk songs from various places.
Accustomed to the sound of piano, guitar and violin, many people have forgotten the charm of Chinese musical instruments. This program once again allowed people to see the magic of traditional instruments such as Chinese drums, erhu, suona, pipa, and flute, and used them to play the well-known modern songs such as "Kangding Love Song", which felt more charming than the version I had heard before.
The second national style program is called "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace", the program uses VR technology to integrate the dancers into the picture scroll, some people practice ironing, some people break branches and grass, and some people are playing musical instruments, and the scene in the classical Chinese painting "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace" is reproduced in a real way.
At the end of the show, the person in the painting came out of the painting and stepped onto the stage, and it became a Hanfu fashion show, and the arrangement of the whole show can be said to be very innovative, which not only let the audience understand the content of the painting "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace", but also let more people appreciate the beauty of Hanfu.
If there is any national trend in 2023, it is various stage plays and plays. The dance drama "Dream of Red Mansions" is popular all over the country, and the explosion of Chen Lijun and Li Yunxiao has also made people pay attention to Yue Opera again.
The online Spring Festival Gala also keenly captured this trend, so it also added the interpretation of stage plays to the program, inviting Zheng Yunlong and dancers Yang Yingyu and Du Heng to perform the song and dance drama "Will Enter the Wine" together.
The three actors all changed into ancient costumes, Zheng Yunlong played the degraded middle-aged Li Bai, chanting the eternal swan song "Early White Emperor City" on the boat, and the love was even more singing.
And when Zheng Yunlong was singing, a youth version of Li Baiwen appeared on the stage and danced. The middle-aged Li Bai said that he was unwilling, and every action of the young Li Bai was full of vitality, and a song and dance formed a strong collision, allowing the audience to intuitively feel the sadness and sorrow in Li Bai's heart when he was demoted.
The lighting of the show is equally powerful, with blue and red lights to divide the stage in two, outlining the two worlds of reality and memory.
The three programs show the audience Chinese musical instruments, ancient paintings, costumes, and operas, which are both new and deep, and are more beautiful than ordinary songs and dances, and such ancient style programs are more suitable for Chinese evenings.
The entire online Spring Festival Gala is both lively and in-depth, and has a national temperament.
However, this party also has regrets, that is, the lack of language programs, a lot of fun, and audiences who like language programs can only wait until the Chinese New Year's Eve to watch the official Spring Festival Gala.
