Chapter 402 The more I think about it, the more I feel aggrieved. Reality version of a fake

Da Lulu still had the erhu on her waist, and she didn't bother to put the instrument down first. She couldn't help but speak indignantly: "I absolutely disagree with lip-playing and lip-singing. What is this? You are just making a fool of us." Before she finished speaking, she received a roll of the eyes from Wang Xifeng.

Xie Yaning didn't notice Wang Xifeng's expression and said, "I just feel two words: frustrated. We spent so much time and effort to make this piece so wonderful. We thought we could wow the audience today, but we were at a loss on the stage and had to lip sync awkwardly in the end. I really feel that we are not as good as the dancers behind us. We seem to be their foils. At least they really dance. The more I think about it, the more frustrated I feel. This scene reminds me of Mr. Nan Guo. This is simply the real-life version of a fake performer..."

"That's right, it's too depressing. We can't act like this, we must really play and sing. Xie Yaning is right, we can't become the background of the dancers, they must know that we are lip-syncing. If this gets out in the future, we will be so embarrassed..." Bobo said quickly.

"Yes, yes!" others echoed.

The discussions grew louder and everyone became more and more excited.

"Everyone, calm down first. Don't panic when something happens. I'll talk to the director first. Maybe it's like this during rehearsal, but not in the real performance. Don't accuse them for nothing. Once I understand, I'll negotiate with them. If they don't agree to play and sing for real in the end, then we can say we don't want to participate, okay?"

Everyone calmed down after hearing what Wang Xifeng said. Lin Pin'er calmed down now, knowing that she was impulsive, and hurriedly apologized to Wang Xifeng: "It's all my fault that I was impatient and had a bad attitude. It's not directed at you. I know that such an arrangement is not something you can control. Good sister, don't mind it! It's my fault that I didn't keep my temper and took the lead in complaining. It's very unprofessional. We will wait quietly, and you go to communicate with them. Even if we don't reach an agreement in the end, we won't blame you."

Wang Xifeng's expression improved slightly after hearing what Lin Pin'er said. Although she was very embarrassed just now, it only took a moment for Lin Pin'er to help her regain her face and establish her prestige. She had to make this deal today. She couldn't let those girls look down on her.

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng walked out of the conference room without saying anything. She first found the PD in charge of their program, explained the reason, and then took her to the control room. The control room was very large, with at least hundreds of machines. The staff in charge of lighting and audio all had stopwatches. It can be seen that every program must be arranged reasonably, just like a yellow eagle catching the foot of a kite, which is a chain of links.

Wang Xifeng was brought to the control console under the surveillance TV wall. The chief director of the song program was a middle-aged woman about the same age as Wang Ziyan. The woman had a broad face, thick eyebrows, big eyelashes, and exceptionally black hair. It could be seen that she was a Uyghur from Xinjiang.

At this moment, she was getting angry at the microphone: "Where are you looking? Can't you just be united? Walk, breathe! Do you want me to shout every time?"

Wang Xifeng did not disturb her first, waiting for her to finish reviewing the program before speaking:

"You are Director Mi, right? Hello, I am Moly's agent Wang Xifeng. The show we are performing is "Spring Flower Dream", which we just rehearsed."

Director Na Mi was listening and muttering, "Every year, it is the children's programs that are the most difficult to review. If we don't let them yell, we can't do it well..."

Suddenly she looked up at Wang Xifeng and said, "Well, I know you guys. The rehearsal just now went well. The renderings of the clothes will be sent over soon. I will arrange for the person in charge of the costume team to go over and organize a meeting for everyone. I still have seven or eight programs to review, so I really can't spare the time." She thought Wang Xifeng was here to ask about the costumes.

Wang Xifeng knew that she was in a bad mood at the moment and it was not appropriate for her to offend others, so she asked tentatively: "Our artists would like to ask Director Mi if the audio we just played was the one they later adapted, because they found that the sound was wrong when they just played it." Wang Xifeng tried hard to use some professional terms so that Director Mi would not see that she was an amateur.

"Yes, that's right! There's no need to change this song. The original version is fine. We have already recorded the duration according to the original version. These programs are time-limited, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the countdown at twelve o'clock. You don't understand. We have to change this and that, and it has caused us so much trouble." After saying that, without waiting for Wang Xifeng to continue, he picked up the microphone and shouted to the rehearsal room outside: "Prepare for the next program, prepare the lights, and prepare the sound system."

Wang Xifeng took advantage of the ten seconds of lighting preparation to quickly ask the last question: "Director Mi, I'm really sorry to bother you today! Let me confirm again, we also played the audio on the day of the live broadcast, and the actors lip-synced and lip-synched, right?"

Director Nami's expression suddenly changed. He turned off the microphone and said to Wang Xifeng, "What do you mean by fake playing? This is to protect the safety of the live broadcast. All singing and dancing programs are arranged like this. This is not called fake playing or lip-synching. This is for the integrity of the entire live broadcast. I hope your artists understand."

Wang Xifeng immediately smiled and said, "I'm just confirming with you, you go ahead and do your thing." After saying that, she turned around, put away her smile, and walked out of the control room.

Wang Xifeng is the kind of person who would rather strike the golden bell once than beat the broken drum three thousand times.

Saying one more word to this Director Mi would be a waste of words and would only lead to a loss of confidence. Wang Xifeng could understand her attitude. She had been busy all day and her throat was hoarse from shouting. She had to dispatch hundreds or even thousands of people and worry about very young children, as well as other uncontrollable factors... No one in that position would have a good temper.

However, Wang Xifeng thought that in a few days, when everyone's patience was exhausted, as the chief director, she might have to step out to appease everyone and ask them to grit their teeth and hold on. After thinking about it, she felt that it was not easy for her, so it would be better to find someone who could solve the problem in one sentence to come forward, so as to save herself from arguing with her for a long time and wasting each other's time.

After leaving the control room, Wang Xifeng found the safe passage in the direction of the cold air. After looking around for a long time and seeing no one, she called Li Shuirong.

"Boss Li, there is an emergency here. The director wants to play the audio and let them fake play and lip-sync. The director is very firm and said that everyone does this. But Pin'er can't accept it. If she fakes playing, she may have to give up the opportunity to perform. What do you think?"
