Chapter 1226 Missing Persons
Dan-Hitchens has been trying hard to calm down, but obviously, it is not easy.
Live broadcast, this is a live broadcast.
And, it’s Grammy Live!
Excuse me, what are they doing?
When Anson told the CBS live team that they needed a room to practice, the show's on-site director thought he heard wrong -
What practice? Aren’t the band’s rehearsals enough? Is there really no problem with cramming now, but what about the live broadcast of the awards ceremony?
Leaving aside other issues for the moment, what should I do if there are vacancies in the audience seats at Staples Center?
Tonight, Anson and the August 31st Band are the center of attention. The Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences does not hesitate to provoke the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The fundamental purpose is to create a topic and emphasize Anson's presence. , attracting attention and creating hot spots for the award ceremony to detonate ratings.
Naturally, the program team arranged a conspicuous location for the August 31st band so that the live cameras could record them throughout.
But now, Anson says he needs a practice room and is absent from the awards ceremony?
What are you doing!
Grammy is not a VMA or Teen Choice Awards, this is not a circus!
They are all professionals, everything is in order, everything has rules. How could they just ignore the rehearsals for two whole months so unreasonably?
Absurd. ridiculous. Be willful!
However.
No one knew what Anson said to the program director. The two stood aside and chatted for five minutes, and the program director was actually convinced.
Actually!
Furthermore, Dan Higgins, the assistant stage manager, was transferred here to look after the August 31 band and remind them of the program flow at all times.
Originally, the so-called stage manager is responsible for coordinating and managing the normal operation of the award ceremony. They need to communicate with award guests, performers, etc. to ensure that the award ceremony proceeds in accordance with the process sequence; and coordinate with the technical team to ensure The technical aspects are kept in sync with the scene.
In addition, the most important thing is to deal with emergencies to ensure that the award ceremony will not be disrupted.
As the assistant stage manager, Higgins has been running around the Staples Center all day today, dealing with all kinds of unexpected situations, but this scene before him?
Even though Higgins was prepared to deal with all emergencies, he was still confused by the scene in front of him.
Higgins: Who am I where am I and what am I doing?
Especially when the band started rehearsing a brand new song on August 31, Higgins was completely dumbfounded. He was very sure and certain that this song did not appear on the album "Midnight in the Summer" inside.
So, what is going on with all this?
Higgins was a little confused.
Then, the awards ceremony began -
In the absence of Anson and the band on August 31st.
CBS TV station believes that as long as the live broadcast does not focus on close-ups and close-ups and always maintains a panoramic view, the audience and on-site guests will not notice any abnormalities.
After all, there are so many stars tonight and there are so many seats in the Staples Center. If Anson is not seen for a while, people will just think that they have missed it and will not make a direct connection and think that Anson has disappeared.
However, they made a mistake.
It is precisely because of the stark contrast between the Grammys and the Oscars that Anson attended tonight's awards ceremony as a guest, and people paid special attention to the Grammys.
Furthermore, Anson’s dazzling appearance on the red carpet was so stunning that word of mouth spread in such a short period of time that viewers who missed the red carpet looked for Anson and August 31 at the awards ceremony. The figure of the band.
Result——
No such person found.
At the beginning, the guests at the Staples Center noticed something unusual. The center of attention disappeared tonight. No one saw them again after the red carpet. All kinds of rumors and conjectures. As the market spreads, the gossip power of Hollywood Vanity Fair has been revealed, and all the speculations are outrageous.
Why did Anson act like a big name and break up with the TV staff and leave the Staples Center immediately? What about the band members who were dissatisfied with Anson being the center of attention on the red carpet and got into a fight backstage? What about Anson's girlfriends at the Staples Center? The Pussy Center unexpectedly discovered that the superstar was in multiple boats, and the scene was full of quarrels. Bah bah bah, the more I say it, the more outrageous it becomes, the more I say it, the more absurd it becomes, and I can’t stop at all.
But what’s really interesting is that each one of them has a nose and an eye, and each one of them spreads the word happily, and it seems that they may all believe it.
At the same time, the audience in front of the TV also noticed this. They did not understand the inside of the industry, so they naturally did not know the tricks behind the live broadcast director's switching of lenses; but the audience was simpler and more direct, and could not see Anson, so they naturally became confused. There was no need to think about the reasons behind it, and one by one they started calling the CBS live hotline to complain -
"Where is Anson?"
The purpose of watching the award ceremony was Anson, but a close-up shot was broadcast live. If you don’t give it to me, what does it count? Grammy fraud?
What the hell!
All of a sudden, it was very lively.
The news spread like wildfire.
In the vanity fair of Hollywood, good things don’t go out and bad things spread thousands of miles. In less than thirty minutes, the unexpected situation at the Grammys has spread throughout Hollywood.
One or two eat melon and watch the show.
The top executives of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences sat up in shock even as they were dying of illness. They took a deep breath and tried their best but could not control their excitement and excitement——
Gray Mei, are you ready to make a fool of yourself?
Anson, are you in trouble?
Haha, they knew that those guys from the Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences deserved what they deserved. Haha, they were ready to watch and watch.
Under the calm surface, there is a surging undercurrent.
Originally, the attention of the Grammy Awards is not that high. Among the Hollywood award ceremonies, it lags behind the Oscars, and it also lags behind the Golden Globe Awards. It is barely on par with the Emmy Awards. ; But this year, all the bustling eyes of Hollywood are gathered here.
Of course, on the surface, everything was quiet, the singing and dancing were peaceful, and the awards ceremony kicked off amidst the noise.
The opening performance of this year's Grammy was performed by Beyoncé's partner Jay-Z. Beyoncé, who started her career as a solo artist, finally ushered in her own shining stage. She put out 120% of her energy and gave a gorgeous performance that lasted for more than ten minutes. The performance and the stage inheriting the visual style of "Moulin Rouge" are eye-opening.
With great fanfare, the 46th Grammy Awards kicked off. Beyoncé’s opening performance won the audience a standing ovation.
The atmosphere is pushed to the extreme in an instant.
Subsequently, the awards were announced one after another, and exciting performances also appeared in turn -
The Beatles 40th Anniversary Stage, Justin Timberlake, Black Eyed Peas, Foo Fighters .
Unlike other award ceremonies, the music awards ceremony is a carnival party, using performances to complete the connection and awaken happiness around the world.
No need to be burdened, just enjoy it.
In the party atmosphere of laughter and laughter, a message was passed to Higgins, and he pushed open the practice room door.
“Guys, emergency!”
