Twenty-eight, make noodles; twenty-nine, steam buns; stay up all night at thirty, twist and turn on New Year's Day, and make dumplings on New Year's Eve every year.
This is a folk proverb that Xu Chuan accidentally saw on the Internet when he was on Earth. It is said to be a custom of celebrating the New Year in the north.
Xu Chuan didn't know whether it was true or not, because he didn't spend the New Year in the north.
This year is the first time.
It is now 12:30 noon on New Year’s Eve. The backstage of the Spring Festival Gala can be described as full of people. This time is also the time when lunch boxes are distributed.
The corridor in the room was full of people sitting, squatting, and standing.
Xu Chuan was sitting on the sofa in the dressing room eating a lunch box, and Cai Meng next to him was also eating a box lunch one by one.
While eating, he complained in a low voice: "It's a big TV station, why is this lunch box so bad today? It's not as good as the lunch box of our crew."
"I told you a long time ago that you don't need to stay with me here. If you don't listen, you can only eat this with me now." Xu Chuan said with a smile after hearing this.
"How can that be okay? As your assistant, you attended the Spring Festival Gala and I ran home to celebrate the New Year. Firstly, I have no professionalism, and secondly, I have no loyalty to friends. Do you think I look like that kind of person?" Cai Meng put the box lunch on the table. , said after taking a sip of water.
After saying that, she continued: "Just wait until the new year and bring me a few more big meals to make up for the hunger I've been having these days, hehe."
"Okay, you can eat whatever you want." Xu Chuan said and put the lunch box on the table.
Seeing that Xu Chuan had not eaten the lunch box after taking two bites, Cai Meng came to Xu Chuan's side and said, "How about it, Brother Chuan, do you also feel that today's lunch box is particularly unpalatable?"
"Not only does it taste bad, it's not as delicious as the 8-yuan construction site set meal next to my university." Xu Chuan agreed in a low voice.
After eating the box lunch for the Spring Festival Gala for so many days, something is really wrong today.
However, the biggest reason why neither of them could eat was probably because of their mood.
The live broadcast is about to begin, but I really don’t have much appetite.
"Yes, yes, there is a lunch box for construction workers next to my school, so..." Cai Meng immediately became energetic after hearing this.
"Shh~~" Before Cai Meng could finish speaking, Xu Chuan winked at her.
Cai Meng immediately stopped talking when he saw this action, and then turned his head without leaving any trace. Only then did he realize that a CCTV reporter had entered their dressing room.
Obviously, I came here for an interview.
Every year on the eve of the 30th, CCTV will conduct a day-long thematic report with the theme "Year After Year" starting at 9 a.m.
The content of the report includes New Year celebration scenes in various places, and of course also reveals the secrets of the Spring Festival Gala backstage.
If you come here for an interview, the questions you can ask will definitely include the contents of the Spring Festival Gala lunch.
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan and Cai Meng brought back the uneaten lunch box with a tacit understanding.
As expected, Xu Chuan was attending the Spring Festival Gala for the first time and was also a very topical figure. The CCTV reporter who came to interview scanned the people in the dressing room and walked over with the photographer without any hesitation.
After approaching, the reporter smiled directly and said: "Hello, Teacher Xu."
"Hello." Xu Chuan said with a smile while holding a box lunch, and then added to the camera, "Hello to all the viewers in front of the TV, I am Xu Chuan."
When the reporter saw Xu Chuan taking such initiative, he immediately became energetic.
She smiled and said: "Teacher Xu, many viewers in front of our TV have been very curious about the backstage of our Spring Festival Gala, and they are also very curious about the dining of our actors.
You happen to be eating right now. Can you introduce our Spring Festival Gala lunch boxes to the audience? "
Upon hearing this, Xu Chuan immediately lifted the lunch box and placed it in front of the camera.
Then he said with a smile: "Dear viewers, this is the box lunch for the Spring Festival Gala. It has potatoes, beef, tomatoes, eggs, shrimps and vegetables. How about it? Isn't it very rich?"
After saying that, Xu Chuan put down the lunch box, picked up another small box, raised it in front of the camera and said, "There are also after-dinner fruits, including bananas and dates."
Speaking of this, the corners of Xu Chuan's mouth suddenly couldn't help but twitch.
What kind of fruit is this?
Bananas and dates?
People on the Internet say that eating this together tastes like shit.
Fortunately, I didn't have time to eat.
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan put the fruit down and planned to trick Cai Meng to try it later to see if it had the legendary taste.
"Then can you describe to the audience the taste of our Spring Festival Gala lunch box?" the reporter continued to ask.
Xu Chuan was speechless when he asked this question. Potatoes, beef, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shrimps, and vegetables. Do you need to describe the taste of these dishes? Isn’t this all home cooking?
You should ask me if it tastes good.
If you ask, I will definitely reply you with the "report to eat", with the authentic accent of the old Beijing city that swallows the word.
I saw Xu Chuan thinking as he replied: "The taste of the lunch box? How to describe it? Do you know what kiwi tastes like?"
"I know." The reporter was stunned by Xu Chuan's question. Why did he ask about kiwi fruit?
"The lunch box doesn't taste like that anyway." Xu Chuan replied seriously.
"Pfft~~ Hehehehehehe..." Cai Meng, who was next to him, burst out laughing when he heard this.
Not only him, but also the photographer who took the photo was visibly shaking.
The reporter naturally realized that Xu Chuan was teasing her.
But it doesn’t matter, the effect is better than a formal interview.
Then, the reporter suppressed his laughter and asked, "Teacher Xu, we all know that this is your first time to participate in the Spring Festival Gala. What is your biggest feeling about participating in the Spring Festival Gala? Can you share it with the audience?"
"The biggest feeling?" Xu Chuan began to think again after hearing this, and then said seriously, "The biggest feeling may be that there are so many people backstage. To be honest, I have never seen so many people backstage. It is too lively.
Just now, before the lunch boxes were distributed, my colleague helped me get some buns. Six buns were squeezed in the corridor at the door. When she came in, she only had a plastic bag in her hand. "
As soon as these words came out, Cai Meng, the photographer, and the reporter couldn't help but burst into suppressed laughter.
Not only them, but other actors and staff who were eating next to them, who were watching the fun, didn't hold back when they heard this.
Before the reporter could ask further questions, Xu Chuan continued: "I was really hungry at the time, and I thought, since it was lost in the corridor, I might be able to find it if I go look for it.
Then I went out and squeezed in the crowd. When I came back, my dear, half of the more than 20 software on my phone had been uninstalled. "
"Hahahahahahaha..." As soon as Xu Chuan finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from the dressing room.
The photographer's camera was almost unsteady.
The reporter was almost hurt internally. Why did this guy talk so much nonsense?
"Every Spring Festival Gala, our backstage is really lively." The reporter concluded while suppressing a laugh.
Then he continued to ask: "Teacher Xu, our interview this year also has a theme, and that is "New Year's Eve Dinner". Can I ask, in your heart, which year is the most impressive New Year's Eve dinner?"
As soon as this question came out, Cai Meng couldn't help but frown slightly.
She felt that it was inappropriate to ask Xu Chuan this question. Wouldn't this be adding salt to Xu Chuan's wounds?
However, facing the CCTV reporter's interview in the backstage, Cai Meng could not block it over and over again.
After Xu Chuan heard this question, his mood became a little erratic.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "The most impressive thing should be the New Year's Eve dinner when I was 8 years old. I was born in a rural area, so my grandma raised chickens, ducks, geese and pigs at home.
It was that year. I don’t know why. Maybe it was because the little ducks, chicks, goslings and piglets my grandma bought and raised were so cute, or maybe it was because I awakened my love for small animals that year.
Anyway, when I was out of school or on vacation, I played with those chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs every day. To put it inappropriately, they were like my childhood during that time.
In this way, as time passed slowly, by the time of the New Year, they had all grown up. "
Having said this, Xu Chuan paused.
"Then what." The reporter asked in confusion, weren't we talking about the New Year's Eve dinner? How could we talk about this properly?
"Then for the New Year's Eve dinner that year, eight of the twelve dishes were made by me." Xu Chuan looked at the camera with a complicated expression and said.
"Hahahahahahahahaha..." As soon as these words came out, a burst of laughter broke out in the dressing room again.
The reporter actually wanted to laugh, but the problem was that she couldn't. She had to pretend to be sympathetic and looked at Xu Chuan and asked: "So, you were very sad at the time, so that's why you were so impressed by this New Year's Eve dinner, right?"
"That's true. I was so sad. Tears flowed down from the corner of my mouth. I just ate three big bowls with tears in my eyes. If my grandma hadn't been afraid that I wouldn't let me continue eating, I wouldn't have been able to continue eating. Just can't stop.
I can only say that the free-range chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs in rural areas taste really delicious. You must try it if you have the opportunity. Xu Chuan said and gave a thumbs up to the camera.
reporter:? ? ? ? ?
Do you have any serious illness?
According to the routine, you should be sensational, brother!
But will Xu Chuan be sensational at this time?
If you are not capable, the song you will sing and the commercial you will air later are already sensational enough.
It's still sensationalizing here now, but I'm not the heroine of a sad drama.
After calming down for a while, the reporter asked the last question: "Teacher Xu, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Can you send a blessing to our viewers in front of the TV?"
Hearing this, Xu Chuan straightened his body and became serious, then he raised his hands and said to the camera: "Dear audience friends, thousands of blessings are gathered into one sentence.
I wish you and your family and friends good health and safety. Health and safety are the most important thing no matter when and where you are. "
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xu, for accepting our interview. Thank you for your hard work." After the reporter finished speaking, he led the photographer to another person in the dressing room.
Xu Chuan here couldn't help looking at the bananas and dates in front of him. He said to Cai Meng in a mean tone: "Cai Cai, do you know what bananas and dates taste like when eaten together?"
"What could it taste like? Have you ever eaten watermelon? It's not that taste anyway." Cai Meng said imitating the same.
"Aren't you curious? In this way, if you take a bite of a banana and two dates and feel it, it is said that it will produce a very wonderful taste, which is a new feeling that ordinary people can't experience." Xu Chuan said seriously.
"What do you mean by a new feeling that is difficult for ordinary people to experience?" Cai Meng looked at Xu Chuan suspiciously, always feeling that he was trying to trick her.
"You'll know after you eat it. Can I still lie to you?" Xu Chuan said with a smile.
Cai Meng's curiosity was indeed aroused when she heard this, so according to Xu Chuan's statement, she first took a bite of the banana, then stuffed two dates into her mouth and started chewing.
Xu Chuan looked at Cai Meng expectantly and asked, "How is it? What does it taste like?"
"It just tastes like bananas and dates." Cai Meng said vaguely while continuing to chew.
"It's impossible." Xu Chuan was a little confused when he heard this. Are all those videos on the Internet staged?
Just when he was planning to give it a try himself, Cai Meng on the other side suddenly put on a mask of pain.
"Bah, bah, bah, what does this smell like?" Cai Meng quickly swallowed the contents of his mouth, then spit out the remains of the dates into the trash can.
"Here, does it really smell like that?" Xu Chuan was immediately surprised when he saw this reaction.
"You are really trying to trick me." When Cai Meng heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Xu Chuan.
"I'll try it too." Xu Chuan had never tried it before, and now that it looked so magical, he really couldn't control his curiosity.
Xu Chuan was not the only one who was curious.
The dressing room is not big, and the two people are making a lot of noise. Others were also led astray when they looked at the strange behavior of the two people.
Xu Chuan is here biting a banana and stuffing dates with it, and other people in the dressing room can't help but follow suit.
Ten seconds later, 60% of the people who tried it in the dressing room put on masks of pain, while the remaining 40% looked at the others in confusion, their eyes full of doubts like "Is it that exaggerated?" .
Xu Chuan is one of those 40%.
He really didn't taste the legendary "shit smell", which was the flavor of banana and dates. It was true that it wasn't very tasty.
"Oh my god, what does this smell like?" For a moment, the dressing room became noisy.
This noisy scene was naturally seen by the reporter who was interviewing another actor nearby.
The actor being interviewed was also a little strange. She turned around and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Teacher Wu, try eating a banana and two dates." He immediately encouraged with a smile.
"Is there anything special about eating like this?" the man known as Teacher Wu asked doubtfully.
"You'll know after you try it, hahahaha, it's a very novel feeling." The man continued to encourage.
Teacher Wu couldn't help but encourage him, and the reporter was also curious about what it felt like for these people to suddenly make such a fuss.
So, Teacher Wu tried it again in front of the camera.
Unfortunately, she felt a taste that was unacceptable to her taste buds, and her expression immediately became tense. Her reaction was much greater than that of others.
After reluctantly swallowing it, she immediately took a sip of water, then said with an embarrassed face: "Who did this?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately looked at Xu Chuan.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Xu Chuan thought quickly and said: "Banana and dates are called Jiao Zao. Jiao dates make people anxious. It is normal for anxiety to taste bad. So let's eat Jiao Jiao now so that we won't be anxious next year." Please tell me whether it is."
"Hahahahahaha." As soon as these words came out, the people in the dressing room were stunned for a moment, and then they immediately laughed again, creating a happy atmosphere.
"I've heard that Teacher Xu can be blind... No, it's because of his good eloquence. Now it seems that it is true."
"Teacher Xu, should you consider acting in a language program next year?"
"I think it's okay, you have the talent."
Everyone joked for a while.
After a few more minutes, the reporter left.
Everyone in the dressing room has a friendship of "eating burnt dates" together. After the reporters are gone, the atmosphere for chatting is even better.
There are still some "evil" people who think that such a good thing cannot be tried by themselves. There are acquaintances in other dressing rooms, so why don't they fool me?
Seeing the high spirits of these people, the corner of Xu Chuan's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Good guy, looking at the state of this group of people, they are planning to let all the actors backstage of the Spring Festival Gala eat once, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan hurriedly said: "Everyone, please don't say that this idea came from me. I don't want to be beaten during the Chinese New Year."
"Pfft~ Hahahahaha."
"Don't worry, eating burnt dates has such a good meaning, we will help you spread it."
"Yes, as the saying goes, if you drink water, you won't forget the well digger, and if you eat burnt dates, you won't be forgotten."
"Hahahahahaha."
Seeing how cheerful they were, Xu Chuan said helplessly: "Goodbye, goodbye, I still want to keep a low profile."
"Whatever I want, you are like a firefly in the dark, unable to keep a low profile."
"Teacher Xu, actually everyone knows that it was you who came up with the idea. When Teacher Wu was interviewed just now, it was already recorded. Based on my experience.
The content of the interview just now will appear on live television in less than 20 minutes, and people all over the country can see it. "An actor said with a smile.
In fact, appearing on live television came much sooner than the actor expected.
Just ten minutes after Xu Chuan finished his interview, the live broadcast of CCTV's "Year After Year" was already preparing to broadcast his interview footage.
"Next, let's follow the reporter's camera to see what interesting things happened backstage at the Spring Festival Gala." As the anchor's voice fell.
The female reporter who just interviewed Xu Chuan appeared on the screen.
She was seen standing at the door of Xu Chuan's dressing room, speaking to the camera: "Dear viewers, I am currently in the dressing room No. A08 backstage of the Spring Festival Gala.
It is understood that some of our guest performers tonight are inside preparing for the performance at the moment. It is exactly noon and they should be eating.
Next, follow our lens to see how the performers in this dressing room are eating. "
After saying this opening, she entered the dressing room with a microphone and a camera.
What was played next was her interview with Xu Chuan.
Although it is true that many people do not watch the Spring Festival Gala, most TVs at home are turned on during New Year's Eve.
So at this moment, many people still saw Xu Chuan's interview intentionally or unintentionally.
"Do you know what kiwi tastes like? The lunch box doesn't taste like that anyway."
"I went out for a squeeze, my dear, half of the twenty apps on my phone were uninstalled."
"There are twelve dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner, eight of which were made by me."
"Tears flowed down from the corner of my mouth unsatisfactorily... I ate three big bowls with tears..."
When these nonsense words popped out of Xu Chuan's mouth, many people watching TV immediately stopped laughing.
Even an elderly person can't help but smile knowingly when he hears "If it weren't for my grandma being afraid that I wouldn't let me eat".
As for young people, most of them can laugh at every "joke" Xu Chuan makes.
This includes Qiu Zhixia, the younger brother Qiu Yicheng said was originally very obedient.
He laughed so hard that his stomach ached. While laughing, he shouted to Qiu Yicheng, who was helping his parents prepare the New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen: "Sister, sister, sister, come here quickly, come and see this living treasure Xu Chuan."
Qiu Yicheng in the kitchen, when she heard Qiu Zhixia shouting, shook the water on her hand, and said as she walked out: "Don't bite Xu Chuan one by one, no matter how big or small."
When Qiu Zhixia heard this, she rolled her eyes, and then said with a smile: "How about I change my name to brother-in-law?"
Hearing this, Qiu Yicheng rolled her eyes at Qiu Zhixia, neither denying nor admitting.
Seeing that Qiu Yicheng didn't speak, Qiu Zhixia continued to smile and said: "Then when will you take my brother-in-law to meet my brother-in-law?"
"Shut up!" Qiu Yicheng said to Qiu Zhixia with some embarrassment.
"Shut up, just shut up." Qiu Zhixia began to whisper.
Generally speaking, he is still more afraid of his sister Qiu Yicheng. It is accurate to say that he is afraid, and he respects her very much.
As Qiu Yicheng's younger brother, Qiu Zhixia's appearance can be described as handsome. He is tall, has long legs, and has well-proportioned muscles. He is not bad compared to celebrities.
It is because of this that this guy has been very popular with women since he was a child.
I have been dating since junior high school, and now that I am in my junior year, I have had countless girlfriends.
Of course, it doesn't matter if that's all.
When it comes to dating, changing girlfriends frequently is not a big problem.
The key is that this guy likes a different type of woman.
Let's put it this way, when he was a sophomore in high school, this guy was hooking up with the new music teacher at his school.
When Qiu Yicheng heard the news, she was shocked!
Later, this guy's girlfriend became more and more mature.
People of the same age and younger are not interested at all. He loves divorced young women. If he were not afraid of being beaten to death and affecting Qiu Yicheng, he might also want to try it if he is not divorced.
Perhaps, he may have already tried it, but Qiu Yicheng and others don't know.
Anyway, you don’t listen to what you say, and you don’t change after you hear it.
Qiu Yicheng was really helpless.
His parents were even more helpless.
This is why Qiu Yicheng said in front of Xu Chuan, "Qiu Zhixia turns out to be very obedient."
When Xu Chuan heard this at first, he thought it was his brother who was uneducated and was just eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
Later, when they found out what was going on, everyone was almost stupid. Qiu Zhixia might as well change his name to Qiu Mengde.
In the living room of Qiu Yicheng's house, after chatting with Qiu Zhixia for a few words, she went to the kitchen to put away the New Year's Eve dinner with her parents.
As for Qiu Zhixia, he was really bored. It was not that he was lazy here, but he went to the kitchen to help out for a while and was kicked out by Qiu Yicheng.
As a result, he could only continue to scroll through his phone while saying New Year's greetings to the young woman he had just met and looking at something at the same time.
About half an hour later, he discovered that the official account of Station D of CCTV had also released the interview with Xu Chuan.
Qiu Zhixia instinctively clicked and read it again.
"Hahahahaha." Looking at it, he couldn't help laughing again.
Netizens who watched the video had the same reaction as him.
After reading it, he couldn't help but click on the comment area.
[Brothers, we already have the answer to what is the funniest language program in this year’s Spring Festival Gala]
[Hahahaha, please watch the sketch "Interview with Xu Chuan" below]
[If this year’s sketches and crosstalks weren’t as funny as Xu Chuan’s interview, it would be really funny]
Along with this discussion, half an hour later, the interview video of Teacher Wu was also released by CCTV.
The previous content is quite regular and not too interesting.
It wasn't until the scene of eating burnt dates appeared that netizens' curiosity was completely piqued.
You have to say that usually people don’t go out to buy bananas and dates to try.
But today is the Chinese New Year, and more or less some fruits will be prepared at home, so many people have bananas and dates on hand.
Now it's good, a bunch of people started trying it.
Qiu Zhixia is naturally no exception.
After eating, his expression immediately changed, and he vomited directly: "How the hell does this feel like eating shit?"
Soon, a bunch of people started sharing their experiences of eating this thing under this video.
Some said it tasted good, some said it tasted terrible, and of course the most common ones said they didn't taste anything special.
Anyway, a group of people had nothing to do and started arguing.
The entry "What does banana and jujube taste like together" went directly to the hot search.
The popularity is just below #InterviewXuchuan#.
It was at this time that a reply in the comment area made many people burst into laughter.
[I was backstage at CCTV. I just heard that 90% of the performers backstage were fooled into giving it a try. You can experience the taste feedback for yourself.
Anyway, according to Xu Chuan, he called this behavior "eating burnt dates", which means to eat the "anxiety" in the coming year in advance and pray for good luck in the coming year. 】
As soon as this reply came out, a bunch of people immediately commented like crazy.
[Hahahaha, this looks like Xu Chuan was just making it up because he was afraid of being beaten]
[Not to mention, the editing is really like that. 】
[I announce that the funniest program of this year's Spring Festival Gala has really appeared, the program is called "Everyone Eats Burnt Dates"]
[Then the question is, is "Interview with Xu Chuan" funnier or "Everyone Eating Burnt Dates" is funnier]
[I think the funniest thing may be "It turns out that language programs are really not as funny as interviews and eating burnt dates"]
As soon as this comment appeared, it immediately received crazy comments from many netizens.
It's afternoon now, and there are still a few hours before the Spring Festival Gala is broadcast. If you are really hit by this comment after it is broadcast, it will be really fun.
Thanks to [Cute Leaf Sauce] for the tip
