"Hahaha!"
Seeing Xiao Yunhai wolfing down the food without any hesitation, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Zhang Feng said, "Slow down. We're not in a hurry anyway. Mr. Xiao, I want to ask you, what's the deal with the last baton? Many netizens on the Internet are saying that you're fattening for personal gain. "
Xiao Yunhai drank a mouthful of water and said, "I've answered this question many times. Before I came, the chief even asked me if I had used my position to get this opportunity for myself. My answer was that I used to be a soccer goalkeeper and had the right to light the Olympic flame. My answer is still the same. "
Zhang Feng smiled and said, "So you're going to sing the theme song of the Olympic Games with Miss Zhao? Why did you suddenly change the singer? "
Xiao Yunhai sighed and said, "I had no choice. Such a big performance couldn't be done without my guidance. If I had to sing, I would have to prepare half an hour in advance. That would make the whole show a mess. "
"Compared to you and Miss Zhao, are you satisfied with Teacher Chen Huan and Miss Bree's performance?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I'm very satisfied. I know Teacher Chen Huan very well. His voice is very suitable for this song. I'd already decided on this a long time ago. Then, I used his voice as the basis and searched for singers all over the world to see who could match his voice. In the end, I chose Miss Mestre. I have to admit that their performance was better than mine and Wan Qing's. "
"Aren't you being a little humble?"
"I'm not being humble. I'm speaking the truth. The central idea of 'You and Me' is to live in harmony, to be one family. Wan Qing and I are very good at singing. Our chemistry is much better than Teacher Chen and Miss Bree. The only thing is that our voices are not very suitable. We can't express the mood of the song fully. This is one of the reasons why I gave up. "
Xiao Yunhai's words caused an uproar in the audience.
"Yun Huang, number one in the world."
"Yun Huang, number one in the world."
Xiao Yunhai put his hands together and bowed. "Thank you for your support. I was speaking the truth just now. You don't have to take it to heart. "
Zhang Feng said, "Mr. Xiao, we heard that you received this directing assignment two months ago? Do you have enough time? "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Not enough time is our biggest problem. I actually rejected it at that time. I didn't have any experience in directing a large-scale gala... and the show wasn't even confirmed. I really didn't want to take it. "
"I heard that too. After Director Mo fell ill, the government approached many directors, but none of them accepted the role. So why did you accept it in the end? Aren't you worried that if something goes wrong, it will cause your reputation to plummet? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "If I were to say some high-sounding words, everyone would definitely not believe me. In fact, I didn't think that I was a gala gala gala gala gala. It's just that my biggest problem is that I have no free time. I knew that once I accepted this assignment, it meant that I wouldn't be able to come out for the next two months. At that time, my 'Forrest Gump' was about to be released. My company also had a lot of things to do. When they called me, I rejected them without thinking. Later, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Publicity, and the General Administration of Sports found my uncle. He then found Wan Qing. Under the pressure of my wife not letting me sleep with her, I had no choice but to accept the assignment. "
"Pfft."
"Hahaha."
Both the live audience and the audience in front of the TV couldn't help but laugh.
Zhang Feng didn't expect Xiao Yunhai to say that. He smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, we're in the middle of a live broadcast now. You better pay attention when you answer questions. "
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "I'm just kidding."
Zhang Feng continued to ask, "I heard that after you accepted the assignment, you had full power and made all the decisions. In just two days, you confirmed all the shows. You didn't let anyone review the theme song. You wrote it yourself, right? "
Xiao Yunhai nodded when he heard that and said, "That's right. At that time, I really didn't have a choice. There were only two months left. The shows hadn't been confirmed, and thousands of people were waiting there. If we had to go through everyone's research and deliberation, we might as well not do anything. Desperate times call for desperate measures. In fact, I didn't want to do it without asking for their opinion. If we didn't do it well, don't you think all the blame would be on me? "
Zhang Feng nodded and said, "That's right. Mr. Xiao, you're indeed under a lot of pressure. Fortunately, the opening ceremony was very successful. For you, other than time, what's the biggest problem? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course, it's cooperation. Almost all the shows we watched required cooperation. Their movements had to be coordinated. Some of them couldn't even be off by 0.1 seconds. They couldn't do it without practicing day and night. "
Zhang Feng asked, "I really liked that Hua Xia Kung Fu segment. More than two thousand people practicing Tai Chi. That scene was simply stunning. The key was that their range of movements seemed to be relatively large. They must have put in a lot of hard work, right? "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Of course. They were all soldiers of about the same height. Their physical fitness was good, and their discipline was needless to say. Only the movements of Tai Chi required hard work. For the past two months, they woke up at six in the morning and went to bed at ten at night. Other than eating and sleeping, they stayed in the stadium. They practiced at least a hundred times a day. Go and look at their backs. None of them had bruises. That's why tonight's performance was so good. "
Zhang Feng nodded and said, "It really wasn't easy. The timer at the beginning — Corona, how did you come up with it? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Corona is an ancient timer. Including the idea of the countdown, I wanted to make it different from the previous conventional way of doing it. Since I'm the director, of course, it has to have our country's own characteristics. "
Zhang Feng asked, "Another song that left a deep impression on me was' Singing Our Motherland. 'Was that also written by you?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "'Singing Our Motherland' is a song full of positive energy. Although the melody is simple and the lyrics are not complicated, it can express everyone's love for the motherland very well."
"Then why did you find a little girl to sing? Aren't you afraid that the little girl will have an accident on such a big occasion? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "'Singing Our Motherland' was written for children. They are simple and have no distracting thoughts in their hearts. The feeling when they sing is completely different from those famous singers. As for the little girl, she is very talented. It's as if she was born to be able to hold the stage. She may be a little nervous before singing, but once she starts singing, her whole person will enter the mood of the song. This is talent. As long as she is educated well, I believe that this child will definitely be a top singer in the future. "
Zhang Feng smiled and said, "It seems that you are very optimistic about this child. Mr. Xiao, today's performance is mostly focused on that painting. Is that real paper or made with special effects? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Of course it's not real. It's a painting made up of LEDs that is more than 140 meters long and 27 meters wide. It's very high-tech and can be moved up and down. This is … "
Next, Zhang Feng asked Xiao Yunhai all kinds of questions, and Xiao Yunhai answered them all smoothly.
Half an hour later, Zhang Feng said, "Mr. Xiao, the opening ceremony of this Olympic Games has been recognized by the whole world. Are you satisfied with it?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "It's impossible to be completely satisfied. Whether it's directing a movie or a live performance, there will always be a slight deviation between what the director thinks and what he does. A good director can minimize the deviation, and a bad director can magnify the deviation. I watched the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games backstage and did find a lot of problems. Some of them appeared during the rehearsals, and some of them appeared during the live broadcast. But from the audience's point of view, these mistakes are very small and can almost be ignored. "
"I'm very happy that the opening ceremony of this Olympic Games has been liked by everyone. This doesn't mean that I can get much fame or honor from it, but that our hard work is not in vain, and the sweat of the actors is not in vain. In my heart, they are all the best actors. "
"Clap, clap, clap."
There was a burst of applause.
