Chapter 163 "Playing Lantern Riddles"
During the Spring Festival, there is also an event held every year in the Spring Festival Gala called: My Favorite Spring Festival Gala.
In this competition program, crosstalk and sketches are all language programs.
Over the years, sketches have almost dominated the top three. Crosstalk actors Feng and Niu also made changes under this situation. Although their show is called a crosstalk drama, it is actually a sketch.
As the older generation of outstanding sketch actors fade away from the screen, the language programs of the Spring Festival Gala are becoming less and less interesting. The only other sketch program that everyone is looking forward to is Shen Teng's program, which is a happy muggle.
In this year's competition, Qi Long and Dong Qiang came out strong and used a cross talk about the stock market. After many years, they used cross talk to win my favorite Spring Festival Gala, beating Shen Teng and becoming the first place.
Of course, it is due to the large number of fans of Deyun, Men's Gang, and Challenge Group, but also because Shen Teng's program this year was indeed unsatisfactory compared to previous years.
He played the role of a douchebag and was not punished at all, but in the end his conscience found out that he was suspected of forcing himself to a height, so he failed to compete.
Throughout the Spring Festival Gala, other dumpling-making sketches were naturally no match for Qi Long and the others.
As the most favorite language program actors voted by the audience, they also performed at the Lantern Festival Gala.
This year, the directors of the Spring Festival Gala and Lantern Festival Gala were bolder, and the Spring Festival Gala allowed Sa Beining to be present.
At the Lantern Festival Party, both sides of the language program were mixed. Qi Long and Shen Teng performed a cross talk, and Dong Qiang and other actors from Happy Muggle performed a sketch.
This was mentioned before the Spring Festival Gala, and Qi Long had already sent his manuscript to Shen Teng. It was a very simple task of "playing lantern riddles", with a little bit of filler added.
After all, it is an important party, and the duration must be controlled.
"Now please enjoy the cross talk: "Happy Lantern Festival", performed by Qi Long and Shen Teng!"
Seeing this mix and match, the audience was quite surprised and applauded.
"Crosstalk actor Qi Long!"
"Sketch actor Shen Teng!"
"Bow to you!" They both introduced themselves.
Next, the audience applauded enthusiastically again. When doing crosstalk in the studio, especially at such an important party, the last thing you need to worry about is no applause.
Because there are dedicated ushers, they will take the lead in applauding and lead the audience to applaud together.
In addition to the ushers, there are even so-called Laughter ushers. They smile even when things are not funny.
In other words, mainstream cross talk is simple!
"Thank you all for the warm applause. I know that this applause is not only for me, but also for Teacher Shen Teng!" Qi Long pointed at Shen Teng and introduced.
There was applause again.
Shen Teng reacted quickly: "No matter how I look at it, it's all for me?"
This sentence is a statement, not in the words, because Qi Long did not expect such a big applause here.
"Look, you fat guy is still out of breath, so the applause must be for me, right?" He said proudly, and the audience responded less.
Qi Long's smile suddenly disappeared and he pointed at Shen Teng beside him: "Shen Teng!"
"Okay!" the audience applauded.
Qi Long pointed at himself: "Qi Long!"
"Oh." The audience responded perfunctorily.
Qi Long raised his hand: "Goodbye!" He turned around and stepped off the stage.
Shen Teng quickly stepped forward and pulled him back: "Don't go, don't go, everyone is making fun of you!"
"Well, you are a cross-border actor. It is normal for everyone to applaud you. As far as I know, this is your first time doing cross talk, right?"
"That's right!"
Qi Long smiled again: "Look, you gave us the Lantern Festival Party for the first time, it's really good!"
"Can you speak without breathing heavily? It sounds weird."
"It's right to give it to me. This is your first time working with a cross talk actor. You are working with me. Today is the Lantern Festival. People say that the New Year is before the fifteenth year. But now, New Year's greetings are regarded as old age. Teacher Shen, let me tell you Happy New Year and wish you happiness in your later years! ”
"I'm still young!"
After all, Shen Teng is a drama actor, so although he can't speak cross talk, he still remembers the points of answering and complimenting after rehearsal very firmly, and the cross talk between the two is also quite smooth.
"In recent years, the evaluation of our language programs has not been as high as expected!" Qi Long said seriously.
Shen Teng pointed at him: "High emotional intelligence!"
There is no such thing as low emotional intelligence.
"I thought about the main reason. It's because what we talk about sometimes doesn't reach the point that everyone is interested in. Let's talk about topics that everyone is interested in today. What do you think?" Qi Long asked with a smirk.
Shen Teng didn't accept the move: "What topic do you want to talk about first? I'll see if I can talk about it or not?"
"How much money do you make in a month?" Qi Long asked loudly.
Shen Tengwei said, "Isn't this a bit private?"
Qi Long asked the audience: "Are you interested?"
This didn’t even require the guidance of a conductor or a laugh marshal, everyone just shouted: Interested!
"Look, the atmosphere has been heightened to this point. Let's just give a general idea!"
"Probably? Less than 100,000 yuan!" Shen Teng said slowly.
Qi Long was surprised: "You are such a big star. You are making movies, appearing in variety shows, and also acting in dramas and sketches. This amount of money is not enough for you. It is less than 100,000 a month. How much is it specifically?"
"Four thousand seven!" Shen Teng said calmly.
There is no need for an usher, everyone is happy. Of course everyone knows that they cannot make less than 100,000 yuan a month, so they know that it is a burden.
Naturally, you can't show off your wealth or reveal your nakedness at a party.
"You think four thousand seven is less than one hundred thousand yuan?"
Shen Teng looked at the audience with an innocent face and spread his hands: "Is it four thousand seven to one hundred thousand?"
"Look at his so mean face, does it cost 4,700 to 100,000? It's definitely not that!"
Shen Teng asked him in turn: "How much do you pay per month?" "For me, it's less than 10 million per month!"
"Three thousand?"
"Three thousand and five!" Qi Long's words made everyone happy again. He turned to Shen Teng and asked: "How much is your year-end bonus?"
Shen Teng was shocked: "Do you still have year-end bonuses?"
"No!"
"I would have thought you had it if you hadn't asked me!"
The two started chatting. Due to time constraints, they didn’t have time to say anything more. They just mentioned the real work. Today is the Lantern Festival. During the Lantern Festival, we have to guess lantern riddles. I, a crosstalk actor, and you, a sketch actor, guess each other’s lantern riddles. .
Qi Long asked him: "Why can frogs fly?"
"Why can frogs fly? I don't know!"
"Because he ate the magic cookie!"
"Are you talking about a lantern riddle? You're doing a brainteaser, no, it's not even a brainteaser, it's completely nonsensical!"
"This is the style of my lantern riddles, so let me ask you, why do snakes fly?"
"Have you eaten a magic cookie?"
"Wrong, I ate a flying frog!"
"this"
"Last question, why can eagles fly?"
"Eat cookies, eat frogs, eat snakes!"
"Wrong, the eagle can fly!"
A broken lantern riddle made the whole audience laugh.
Shen Teng came up with the topic and said that he wanted to give a serious one: God knows that I have it, the earth knows that I don’t have it, people know that I have it, and I know that I don’t have it!
Qi Long was puzzled after hearing this: "Are you serious lantern riddles?"
"Of course!"
"It's bad, I only know the unorthodox answer!"
"Tell me!"
"Autumn trousers, from the sky, I can't tell that you are wearing trousers. From the ground, you can see from your outer trouser legs that you are not wearing trousers. From the front, people would think that you are wearing autumn trousers on such a cold day." Trousers, in fact, if you don’t wear long trousers, you will expose yourself to the cold!”
In fact, this is not an unreasonable answer. If it were a commercial performance, Qi Long would throw away one of his burdens: eunuch!
But of course we can't talk about this party
"Am I crazy? I'm not wearing long johns today? I'm still freezing!" Shen Teng glared at him.
"The ham needs to be refrigerated!"
"Go, go, that's not there, it's the sole of my sock. From the sky, you know that I'm wearing socks, but you don't know that my socks have no soles. From the ground, you know that my socks have no soles. When people see me wearing socks, they think I'm like this Socks have soles, but I know that my socks have no soles," Shen Teng explained.
Qi Long glared at him in turn: "Are you crazy? Are you wearing socks without soles today?"
"I'm happy, can you take care of it?"
"Okay, okay, listen to me, it's neither a donkey nor a horse! Hit an animal!"
"Mule!"
"That's wrong. A mule looks like a donkey but not a horse. How can it be neither a donkey nor a horse?"
"What do you think it is?"
Qi Long shouted: "Cock!"
"Are you next to each other?"
Qi Long used Shen Teng's shameless expression just now, spread his hands, and said innocently: "Is the rooster a donkey? (Isn't it) a horse? (Isn't it) Yes!"
"What if I say penguin?"
"That's what you said!"
"Just say it, okay?"
The two played lantern riddles against each other, but neither one was convinced by the other. Finally, Qi Long came up with a big trick, saying that there was an extremely difficult lantern riddle.
He talked about a crosstalk actor who was born in Beichun City, grew up in Shanxi Province, and studied in the imperial capital. When he went home to celebrate the New Year, he met his relatives. When he entertained guests at home, there were twelve dishes and twelve kinds of dried fruits. , there is a nephew who can speak cross talk, and the two of them said a rhyme poem.
All in all, all kinds of information were pouring out, and Shen Teng memorized each one carefully, not daring to relax at all.
"Finding that there was no vinegar at home, the cross talk actor's uncle took the initiative to go out to buy vinegar. In fact, he wanted to go out to smoke. It was inconvenient at home. He put on his coat and went out of the main entrance to the south without wearing a hat. He walked left and lit it. After taking a sip from a cigarette, I went to get jealous. This crosstalk actor’s uncle has three hairs from the front and two hairs from the back. How many hairs does he have?”
Shen Teng, who had memorized it for a long time, was confused: "No, the first part is useless, right?"
"It's useless, that's the only problem!"
"It's useless. What did you say he did?"
"I'm willing, but do you care?" It's Shen Teng's gesture again: "Let me ask you, if you look at three hairs from the front and two hairs from the back, how many hairs does he have?"
"Five roots, such a simple calculation."
Qi Long waved his hand: "No, you are wrong, there is not one!"
"Why don't you have any?"
"Didn't I tell you? Look at three hairs in the front and two hairs in the back." Qi Long made a plucking motion: "How many hairs were pulled out?"
"So dirty?"
The two took a step back and bowed. At this point, the cross talk ended.
