This year, the theme of CCTV’s May Day Party is “Chinese Dream·Beauty of Labor”.
The whole party adopted the format of one main venue + n sub-venues commonly used in CCTV large-scale evening shows.
But because it is a workers’ day, CCTV did not set the stage of the party in a gorgeous studio this time, but moved the entire program to everyone’s workplace. The main stage of
is located in Beijing Zhongguancun Software Park, and several other sub-venues include large countries such as Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group Co., Ltd., a large country's heavy equipment production and R&D base.
In addition to the stage, the program of the party also closely followed the theme. In addition to songs and dances reflecting the theme of labor, the party also arranged a national model worker award ceremony and a speech by a scientific and technological model worker on stage.
Without further ado, let’s take a look at what are the highlights of this party.
1. The opening chorus shows the simplicity and grandeur of the party
The first program often sets the tone for the entire party. When he saw the program "Starting New", Mr. Tomato knew that CCTV would be praised again this year. Yes, because this show is really majestic.
The outdoor stage does not have a gorgeous LED screen, nor is there any stage device that can rise and fall. The director cleverly used the landmark buildings in Zhongguancun Science and Technology Plaza to allow the symphony orchestra to be distributed circularly along the shape of the stage.
The choir stood on the steps on both sides of the building. The female singer wore a red dress and the male singer wore black. The entire stage was dignified in tone and had a strong sense of space.
When the steady and powerful symphony and the high-pitched male and female voices sounded: "The future has come, the struggle is now, time waits for no one, move towards better and faster, the glory belongs to the workers, the garden is full of flowers blooming for you...", go with this On the majestic stage, a song really makes people excited, and they feel that labor is the most glorious.
2. "Background" Powerful Liao Changyong
The shock brought by the first program has not subsided yet, and the party made another big move.
When the prelude of "Kunpeng Fu" sounded, the singer Liao Changyong seemed to be feeling something and looked back. The door behind him slowly opened. Outside the door, three large domestic aircraft were standing quietly. They were a powerful country with heavy weapons and a powerful momentum.
This is the AVIC Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group Co., Ltd., and "Kunpeng Fu" is a song praising the rapid advancement of the motherland's aviation technology and the aviation people's constant self-improvement.
When the singing reached its climax, many aviation people formed a queue symbolizing the march forward through the wind, appeared under the three large planes, and sang this song "Kunpeng Fu" with Liao Changyong. This was a gift to myself. It is also a hymn dedicated to all workers who stick to their respective positions and shine brightly.
3. Zhou Shen performs a large-scale cultural and creative show
If you want to embark on a new journey successfully, you must never forget where you came from.
While everyone is working together to create a better new era, CCTV’s May 1st Party has specially arranged this program called "Journey", which uses cultural relics to take everyone through the five thousand years of Chinese history and warns everyone not to forget The original intention will last forever.
Just looking at cultural relics is inevitably monotonous, so this program invited Zhou Shen to be the singer and performer. He used his delicate and soft voice to match the pictures and slowly narrated the long journey of the Chinese people over the past five thousand years.
Zhou Shen is wearing a light blue smudged suit and singing softly in the gentle rain of apricot flowers. This scene really embodies the sense of peace in the prosperous age.
4. Sun Nan sang loudly, singing the spring breeze and sparks
Sun Nan sang a song "Spring Breeze" at the party.
When he sang this song, he wore a burgundy suit and looked very energetic. Strictly speaking, Sun Nan can be considered a late-age singer. His appearance has not changed much from that of more than ten years ago. What remains unchanged is his resonant voice, which makes people feel the beauty of nature as soon as he opens his voice.
Sun Nan is worthy of being called a national team singer. He sang a song gracefully and melodiously, with very delicate emotions. Coupled with the dance of the dancers in yellow skirts, this program was a feast for the eyes.
5. Workers’ check-in show "Spring Flowers Will Bloom"
The first few programs are a bit elegance, but how can a program belonging to workers be less down-to-earth and friendly? So there is this song "Spring Flowers Will Bloom" by Ren Xianqi . The song
directly moved the singing stage to the outdoor lawn. Ren Xianqi sang this classic old song with a cheerful rhythm in the bright spring scenery. The dancers for him were not professional dancers, but workers from all walks of life. people.
Their dancing was not very skillful, and even a little inappropriate, but it was clear that they were full of joy. After all, this is a program for working people, and the smiles of working people are the most beautiful part of this party.
6. Romantic short films belonging to workers
There was a special program in the party, which was the short film "Poetry of 150,000 Kilometers" starring Dong Yong and Yang Kun .
This short film is adapted from a true story. It tells the story of a delivery boy who still retains a poetic feeling in his heart while he is busy delivering food. He uses poetry to record the small beauties in life during his work breaks and express his feelings. With love for life.
After watching this program, I can really feel the self-improvement and positive mental state of the Chinese people. No matter how difficult life is, we can maintain a sunny heart, not be defeated by life's failures, and always be full of energy. Only in this way will the days get better and better.
7. Hu Xia uses singing to record a beautiful life
The program that follows Dong Yong’s short film is "The Light Falling in Life" sung by Hu Xia . The theme of this song is still to encourage everyone to Discover the small beauties in life and feel the small blessings in life.
Hu Xia's singing voice is warm, and he is walking in the urban jungle when singing. It makes people feel a trace of tranquility in the endless flow of urban life. Perhaps this feeling is the light falling in life.
8. The party becomes younger
In recent years, CCTV’s evening parties have been committed to creating a younger stage that is more in line with young people’s aesthetics, and the May Day party is no exception.
Several programs that night were clearly designed for young audiences.
Li Sidani , Fu Longfei ’s interactive street dance program "Walking towards the Sunshine" brings together many elements of interest to young people such as street dance and visual AR. The whole program is full of youthful vitality, making people unable to bear watching it. Live and sway to the rhythm. The song "Tomorrow's Preface" sung by
Huang Zihongfan , Xilinnayi Gao chose the outdoor grassland where the singing venue is more popular. The performance format is also a band accompaniment that is very popular among young people today.
In addition, the program also invited popular Yue opera actor Chen Lijun to sing the opera song "Every Spring" together with Peking opera actor Tan Zhengyan and Cantonese opera actor Zeng Xiaomin , in an attempt to continue the opera craze set off in 2023.
In addition to the performances, the biggest highlight of the party was the awards and appearances of model workers from all over the country.
These model workers come from all over the country and from all walks of life. They are male and female, old and young, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they all shine in their positions, do their work to the extreme, and become leaders in the industry. Role model.
Let us pay tribute to these model workers and to every ordinary worker who works hard.
Everyone has worked hard in the past year. In the new year, let us pick up our mood, start again, strive for our own bright future, and contribute to the prosperity of our motherland!
