Chapter 303 Sing until you surrender
The CCTV Spring Festival Gala has produced many divine songs. Li Guyi's "Unforgettable Tonight" is the closing program of the Spring Festival Gala every year. In the same year, Zhang Mingmin's "My Chinese Heart", It shocked the Chinese people at home and abroad.
Fei Xiang's "A Fire in Winter" has also become popular all over the country; and whenever shopping malls conduct sales during holidays, Andy Lau's "Gong Xi Fa Cai" will inevitably be played on a loop.
Young friends may have never heard of "Meet in 1998" due to Faye Wong and Na Ying, but you have always seen "Charlotte"!
And the song "Good Luck Comes" has become the song of the lottery. You can open the box to draw skin identification equipment. Without this song, you will always feel like something is missing.
There are many other popular songs of the Spring Festival Gala that became an instant hit. They are all popular and have been listened to by all men, women and children in the streets and alleys. It is probably like the most popular song of "The Lonely Warrior", when you sing "Love" in public. "You walk alone in a dark alley", a stranger will immediately respond with "I love you without kneeling"
But after 2010, the Spring Festival Gala seems to have become less popular, with more than four hours of Spring Festival Gala. After the performance, you will find that you don’t seem to remember any of the songs at all.
The same is true for language programs. The older generation of artists gradually faded out after the Spring Festival Gala. Stalks such as "Palace Jade Wine" and "Sledgehammer is eighty and small is forty" may not be available for a long time. When you show up, everyone makes dumplings together at every turn. Have you ever considered the customs of Cantonese people?
Cantonese people say: I won’t watch the Spring Festival Gala during the New Year, hehe!
When Shen Teng is not funny, northerners will also say, I won’t watch the Spring Festival Gala during the New Year, hehe!
When the Spring Festival Gala Divine Comedy has gradually disappeared, the song "Where Has the Time Gone" turned out to be a rare Spring Festival Gala Divine Comedy in the past ten years.
Everyone has a different opinion on whether this song is good or not. Some people find this song so touching that they cry while listening to it. Some people think that this song is a bitter love song, a moral kidnapping, and a praising of Chinese suffering.
But whether the audience likes it or not, it is true that this song is very popular.
After appearing on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, this song was mentioned many times on the 7 o'clock broadcast, and it was even played as the closing song in one of the programs. This is an extremely rare thing on CCTV.
Later, foreign heads of state visited China and mentioned this song.
Let’s not talk about whether foreigners have really heard this song. Just say that when a head of state comes to our country for an official visit, he must be talking about fashionable topics here. It is impossible to talk to you about the recommendation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. En Ling, this also illustrates from the side how popular "Where Has Time Gone" at the time.
This song was released in 2011 and appeared in the 2014 Spring Festival Gala. It is no longer a new song. Ordinarily, three years after its release, the song has not become popular, which means the song is not popular.
And it has been released for three years and it has not won any music awards, which also shows that the company behind the singer has little strength. Otherwise, why not spend some money to buy the singer a prize?
Luck is really important in many cases. This song was spotted by the director of the Spring Festival Gala. During the special festival of the Spring Festival and the special stage of the Spring Festival Gala, it became an instant hit.
The Spring Festival is originally a day for the whole family to get together, and for some people, it is also the only day of the year when they can reunite with their parents and children. This kind of song, which can express the affection of parents, is indeed easy to resonate when sung at this time.
This is a bit similar to the song "Go Home Often". If it were played on a regular basis, it might not become a hit, but when it appears on the Spring Festival Gala stage, it is inevitable that it will become a divine song.
Imagine, I go to work early in the morning, but there is a traffic jam on the road, blocked on the viaduct, and I can't move forward or backward. At this time, your car music randomly picks up the song "Go Home Often". I'm almost late here. Do you want me to go home and take a look?
Sometimes I am anxiously squeezing the subway, switching from Line 1 to Line 2 and then Line 3. I am running like a grandson in the transfer station, and I have to be in the subway car when I get in. Canned sardines. At this time, if you play me a song called "Go Home Often", believe it or not, I will slap you?
But the Spring Festival is different. No matter whether you are on the way home or have already arrived home, this song is always suitable for the occasion.
Even if you are stranded at the airport because your flight is late, you are waiting at the train station because you did not buy a train ticket, or you are stuck on the highway on New Year's Eve, your purpose is to go home and watch Look, when you hear this song, you will only feel that you are one step closer to home, and your heart will only have the desire and expectation for home.
The song "Where Has the Time Gone" has the same effect. On the night of your thirties, when you were staying with your parents and children, it was hard not to resonate with this song.
If you have children, when you hear the lyrics "having children and raising children for a lifetime, your mind is full of children crying and laughing", you will inevitably put yourself into the role of a parent.
And if you are a child, when you hear the sentence "Half a lifetime of daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, all that's left is wrinkles on your face", you will definitely think of your parents.
The lyrics subtly instill these psychological hints into you. You can't be like Xun Wukong who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, right? Parents or children, you have to be one, or even both, and there will be a mass killing of the whole group.
And there is also the exclamation "Where has the time gone?", which is a torture that directly hits the soul.
I am busy all year round and don’t get much rest, but at the end of the year, I don’t know what I have been busy with this year, and I can’t even put together a few hundred words of annual work summary.
Then I suddenly realized, where did my time go? I feel like I haven’t done anything this year, so why did it go by so quickly?
......
Although this was not the Spring Festival Gala, the audience was still moved when Zhang Wei sang "Where Has the Time Gone".
Because the audience knows that the theme of this game is to be grateful to parents. It was also because this theme was stipulated in advance that when the contestants sang, the audience already understood that this was a song to express gratitude to their parents.
This can be regarded as a kind of psychological suggestion, but it is this kind of psychological suggestion that saves the audience time to brew their emotions and can quickly bring them into the song.
So when Zhang Wei sang the phrase "I am old before I can fully feel young", the audience instinctively thought of their aging parents.
When Zhang Wei sang the phrase "I have children and raised children for a lifetime, my mind is full of children crying and laughing", the audience instinctively thought of their parents' love for them, and could not help but recall their parents' love for them. The way you care about yourself.
When Zhang Wei sang the line "Half a lifetime of daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, all that's left is wrinkles on his face in the blink of an eye", the audience would immediately think of how his parents are getting older as time goes by, and how their hair grows slowly. Silver threads slowly appeared, thinking about wrinkles gradually appearing on their faces, thinking about their bodies gradually becoming rickety, and their steps becoming slow.
No one can resist the invasion of time. Unknowingly, parents become older. In the blink of an eye, decades pass by. Those little feet and those chubby ones are gone. The small mouth can only stay in the memory forever. The once young parents have become old, but no one can answer, where did the time go?
Finally, some viewers couldn't help but shed tears, and then more and more viewers were affected. The surrounding auditoriums were full of red eyes.
A photography club fell down and found a female audience member who was crying. This female audience member had big eyes and carefully put on makeup. She was a beauty. When she cried like this, her big eyes became teary. Wang Wang, it is really like pear blossoms with rain, but it looks more delicate and charming, making people fall in love.
Beauty crying has always been very photogenic. The director backstage immediately switched the scene to the broadcast screen and gave a three-second close-up.
Seeing this pitiful beauty with big eyes, the old perverts in front of the TV couldn't help but want to ask, whose friend is this?
At the same time, the camera captured another beauty with tears streaming down her face, and then gave another shot, and the backstage director immediately cut it into the broadcast screen.
The audience was moved to tears when they heard the song. This was indeed a very effective show.
However, the backstage director soon discovered that more and more scenes of the audience crying were transmitted to the screen in front of them through the cameras in various camera positions. There were so many viewers crying and they couldn't cut away. The picture couldn't be cut off at all!
At the same time, Zhang Wei’s number of off-site SMS votes also began to skyrocket.
Obviously, it was not only the audience who were moved, but also those watching the program on TV. They used practical actions to express their support for Zhang Wei.
Even the program planner himself couldn't help but fall into the song. The voices and smiles of his parents could not help but appear in his mind. He even subconsciously touched his cell phone, wanting to call his parents and listen to their stories. sound.
After taking out his mobile phone, he woke up. He was working here, how could he desert?
Immediately afterwards, he realized the power of the song "Where Has the Time Gone". Even I, a person who is full of hostility towards Zhang Wei, was moved. How could the audience not buy it?
Looking at the SMS voting of the audience after singing, Zhang Wei has achieved a lead and promotion is inevitable.
"The song hasn't even finished yet, and we've overtaken it?" The program planner took a breath of air, and his heart instantly felt cold.
I thought it would be over and over again, and it was impossible to produce three original golden songs on the theme of gratitude to parents. Even if Zhang Wei passed the first two hurdles, by the third song, Zhang Wei would definitely overturn.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Wei saved his ultimate move for the last song. This song made the whole audience cry, and the audience in front of the TV did not know how many people cried because of the song. Woolen cloth!
This is not repeating again and again and no longer three. This is simply that if there is one, there will be two, if there are two, there will be three, and if there are three, it will turn over!
Today's game has set so many restrictions for Zhang Wei, but it is still difficult to stop Zhang Wei from advancing. It seems that there is really no way to kick Zhang Wei out!
Now the planners have begun to think about how to explain to the leaders at the meeting next week.
...
In an urban village in a certain city, there is a noodle shop that has been open for seven or eight years.
Although it was already past the normal time for dinner, there were still a few scattered customers in the noodle shop. They were all young people, and some were workers who had just finished their work and returned to the village in the city. Some are young people who are going to the Internet cafe to stay up all night to fill their stomachs.
A young man in his early twenties walked into the noodle shop, ordered a bowl of the cheapest noodles, and ate it hungrily.
This young man looks a little embarrassed, his hair is messy, as if he has just escaped from a storm, a few strands of hair are sticking up disobediently, his clothes are slightly worn and greasy, and he has been there for many days. It has not been washed, and looking at his face, he is even more unshaven. If he were given a snakeskin bag, he would look like a typical tramp.
People with this image are often seen in urban villages. Many people living in this urban village do not have formal jobs and rely on odd jobs to survive. It is normal to be hungry and full.
Especially those who eat the cheapest noodles and are reluctant to even add an egg. They must be migrant workers wandering on the line of survival. The noodle shop owner has long been used to it.
At this time, the "Come Soon Boys" competition was also playing on the TV, and Zhang Wei began to sing the song "Where Has the Time Gone?"
As the song sounded, everyone in the noodle shop focused their attention on the TV.
“Where has the time gone? Before I could even take a good look at you, my eyes have become blurry. I have spent half a lifetime on daily necessities, but in the blink of an eye, all that is left is wrinkles on my face.”
Hearing such lyrics, the embarrassed boy couldn't help but put down his chopsticks, floated on the table and cried.
"Young man, are you okay?" The boss came over to ask enthusiastically.
“I miss my mother!” the embarrassed young man said with tears in his eyes.
The noodle shop owner sighed. He has seen many such things. He left his hometown to work and suffered a lot. In the most difficult time, he will inevitably think of his family and his mother.
"Young man, if you feel homesick, go ahead and call home! Go left when you go out. There is a public phone near the newspaper seller at the intersection." The boss continued to advise.
"Thank you!" The embarrassed boy held back his tears, swallowed the remaining mouthfuls of noodles, and drank more than half of the bowl of noodle soup in one go before asking: "Boss, is there a police station nearby?"
"Yes, when you go out, go to the right, go to the second route, turn right, and keep walking along the road. After about two miles, you will see the police station."
The guy clicked. He nodded, thanked him again, and walked in the direction pointed by the boss.
Soon after, the young man came to the door of the police station and walked in.
"Comrade, what's the matter?" The policeman on duty looked at the embarrassed young man and felt that this man must have encountered difficulties and came to seek help.
"I am a fugitive and I surrender!" Eight words came out of the young man's mouth.
The policeman on duty was startled, and then immediately shouted: "Squat down and hold your head with both hands!"
......
Not long after, the deputy in charge of criminal investigation The director rushed over.
"Suo Lin, look, this is his information. Zhou XX, 21 years old, committed four crimes with two other people three years ago, and they specifically targeted women who worked the night shift. Later he Both of his accomplices were arrested, but he absconded and has been on the list of absconding criminal suspects," a policeman said, pointing to the computer screen.
"Is the identity verification accurate?" the deputy director asked immediately.
"Don't worry, after checking, the information he gave is consistent with the information on the online pursuit. Moreover, we just washed his face, and it has not changed much from the photo three years ago." The policeman Then replied.
"Well, Skynet is very careful and meticulous. Since you have violated the law, you should take the initiative to surrender and strive for a leniency!" The deputy director paused and continued: "But this kid has absconded. It’s been three years, why did he suddenly think of surrendering?”
“He said he missed his mother and surrendered.”
“What song? ? What song is so powerful?" The deputy director scratched his head in confusion, and then said: "After so many years of criminal investigation, this is the first time I have heard that singing can make fugitives surrender!"
