This is the rehearsal place of the "Avalokitesvara" program group, Cao Xuan contacted it, and it is free to use.
The environment, logistics and other aspects are much better than those found by the Spring Festival Gala director team and the program team.
Wearing a down jacket and a mask, Cao Xuan quietly watched the rehearsal of more than two dozen girls outside the window of the dance studio.
Different from normal dances, these deaf-mute girls can¡¯t hear the music, and they don¡¯t know the rhythm without music. "Avalokitesvara" is another dance that tests rhythm and tacit understanding, which is a big obstacle to dance rehearsal .
In order to better grasp the rhythm, the dancers use their feet to feel the vibration of the musical instrument, and remember the rhythm little by little.
Then practice over and over again to familiarize yourself with every movement and every link, and all dancers eat and live together to cultivate tacit understanding and affection.
In addition, there are some other small skills, which are all explored bit by bit through time, so that dancers can know a certain melody node. .
It can also be seen from this that the difficulty of this dance training, for this reason, many people even question why it is not necessary to practice with normal dancers, and the difficulty will be greatly reduced.
But in fact, the dance "Avalokitesvara of Thousand Hands" did not appear in the Spring Festival Gala at the beginning. It was first shown on an important occasion at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic and Paralympic Games.
It was also because of this performance that they were discovered and recommended to the Spring Festival Gala.
Therefore, this was originally a program produced by the disabled art troupe, so why should it be given to other people.
Then again, let¡¯s not talk about the concept of the dance, just consider the reality, although the training of "Avalokitesvara" is difficult, but a successful program, various performances and interviews can make many dancers, musicians and related disabled staff get A job that pays well.
Give "Avalokitesvara of Thousand Hands" to those able-bodied dancers, then these disabled dancers, musicians, and staff will lose many opportunities.
Therefore, this is not a matter of pursuing "cost performance" at all.
You think it is for the benefit of these deaf-mute girls and saves them hard work, but in fact it deprives them of the right to pursue their dreams and live independently
"Director Cao, what do you think?"
Cao Xuan looked at it for a while, then withdrew his eyes, and asked the program director Zhan Xiaonan who was accompanying him.
"Very well, as long as you can stabilize this state, the rehearsal will be easy to pass, and you usually focus on encouragement to keep everyone confident."
Because of physical defects, many actors are a little unconfident or have low self-esteem, so Cao Xuan and the director have always focused on encouraging and comforting, reporting good news but not bad news.
"Where's Director Zhang?"
"He has something to do at home, come back at night."
Cao Xuan nodded, "Avalokitesvara with Thousand Hands" has two backstages, one is the special director Cao Xuan, and the other is the director Zhang Jigang.
Director Zhang is a famous dance choreographer and the first person in charge of "Avalokitesvara". He is currently the head of the Song and Dance Troupe of the General Political Department. He has a military rank of two bars and four stars. Later, he was promoted to Jinsui one star and served as the principal of the military arts.
How great are these two positions, you can find out who is taking over these two positions
? In addition, Director Zhang was also the deputy chief director of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, and directed several large-scale national ceremonies.
Before the first round of Spring Festival Gala rehearsal, the duration of the "Avalokitesvara" program submitted for review was 5 minutes and 54 seconds.
Nearly 6 minutes long, this is a relatively long program for a Spring Festival Gala song and dance program.
So the director team asked the show to be cut to less than 4 minutes. Director Zhang directly concealed the matter. On the day of rehearsal, the actors were asked to perform the 5 minutes and 54 seconds version.
Of course, the stunning program effect made the director team of the Spring Festival Gala give up the idea of ??downsizing, and won a lot of applause.
But in fact, if another person does this, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction among the director team, who feel disobedient to the arrangement, and even the entire show will be canceled by the rehearsal.
This is not an exaggeration. With such a big stage as the Spring Festival Gala, no one wants to be cut short. There are too many people taking risks, but nine out of ten the price is very tragic.
"The Avalokitesvara of Thousand Hands" has a happy ending. On the one hand, the quality is outstanding, and on the other hand, Director Zhang is full of confidence. Of course, Cao Xuan also helped to say a lot of good things.
Afterwards, Director Zhang also inquired about this, so he invited Cao Xuan to serve as a special guide, and Cao Tianwang readily agreed.
After a dance in the practice room was over, Cao Xuan stepped in. More than 20 deaf-mute girls who were slightly tired saw him, their eyes lit up instantly, and they surrounded him.
Cao Xuan used??Cao Xuan's explanation, asked a little hesitantly, Cao Xuan shook his head again and again: "No, absolutely not."
If he wanted to have real connotations, he added a section of Ding Qing who was caught smuggling, yelling about 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, health code, 100,000 blah blah blah blah blah
Sanye Han was persuaded by Cao Xuan. From the bottom of his heart, he also hoped that more mainland actors would show their faces in this kind of commercial blockbuster.
Up to now, only Uncle Ge and Cao Xuan, Jiang Wen, are the mainland film actors who can really compete with those big names in Hong Kong and Taiwan in terms of box office.
And Cao Xuan is the only one who has the confidence to win the battle.
Now, Cao Xuan intends to favor some newcomers, and Sanye Han will naturally not stop him, saying that he is very powerful, but he is just afraid that Cao Xuan will suffer a loss rashly and his confidence will be hit.
The discussion lasted for more than an hour, and Han Sanye basically focused on listening and didn't raise much opinions.
In fact, China Film Group did not participate much in this film. In addition to paying for it and distributing it, it mostly endorsed it to facilitate review. Han Sanye knew it well, so naturally he rarely spoke.
After the meeting, Cao Xuan invited Mr. Han to sit in his office.
Although the whole picture has not been seen, the office area of ??nearly 200 square meters still surprised Mr. Han.
"It's too big, it's catching up with several offices in our company."
"Who made our company so small and big? As you saw just now, the workstations are getting bigger and bigger. In order not to waste my heart, I can only grit my teeth and spend a little extravagantly."
Cao Xuan showed off a little bit, and took Sanye Han to the quiet room to drink tea. He passed by bedrooms, cloakrooms, fitness rooms, study rooms and other places, and Sanye Han's eyelids twitched, madly chasing lemons.
To be honest, I have seen a lot of mansions when Mr. Han has come to this point, but such a luxurious office is rare.
Those within the system may not be so high-profile, and those outside the system, not everyone can own a private building in the third ring road of Beijing, and the super high rent of office buildings does not allow most bosses to swell their faces to pretend to be fat.
Even if many rich people have money, they will give priority to tinkering with their own mansions instead of flashy offices.
Only Cao Xuan is like this, he has too many houses to worry about, and he has his own mansion, so he can toss around as he likes.
Let alone 500 square meters, he occupied the top floor by himself, and set up an office of nearly 10,000 square meters, and the outside is out of control
Sanye Han was used to being casual with Cao Xuan before, but today he suddenly realized that the young man in front of him is a super invincible rich man.
Although Sanye Han would not be able to curry favor with Cao Xuan because of this, he restrained himself more or less, expressing his respect for wealth.
He doesn't care about money now, but he may not be able to retire in the future, and he has children
"By the way, I was optimistic about a project before, and I wanted to pull you to vote together. Now think about it, if you are interested, just do it yourself."
"What project?"
"A small-budget film, quite interesting."
"Okay, since the third master asked, I voted. What's the name of the movie?"
