For those who are engaged in arts and culture, the Spring Festival Gala is undoubtedly their dream stage, and as for the categorization of arts and culture workers? Singers, actors, hosts and dancers can all be called literary and artistic workers. In short, those who need to work in front of the camera or those who can participate in the production of the Spring Festival Gala can be called literary and artistic workers. Why is the Spring Festival Gala a stage that literary artists aspire to? In addition to recognizing the professional ability of the practitioners, their own market share can also help artists get some work.
From the effect of the program performance of the 2021 CCTV Spring Festival Gala, language programs still failed to reverse the trend of declining word-of-mouth while maintaining high visibility. On the contrary, the dance programs that rarely received attention were recognized by the audience, and the actors involved in the programs also received attention from the audience. The case of dancer Luo Wenbo is unique because the show she participated in was not purely a dance performance. In "Shepherds of the Cocoanut Sea", she performed as a dancer, which was actually a kind of singing performance. 'Shepherds of the Cocoto Sea' was sung by Wang Qi, who actually had a hit on her hands before she made it to the Spring Festival Gala.
Compared with other singers in the entertainment industry, Wang Qi is clearly not famous enough to pull off a stage performance on her own. With the immense pressure of competition in the dance program, Luo Wenbo was arranged to participate in the performance of "The Shepherd of Cocoto Sea" as a dancer, which was both an opportunity and a challenge for her. From a professional point of view, Luo Wenbo's dancing ability is unquestionable. This is not the first time she has interacted with the Spring Festival Gala at the 2021 Spring Festival Gala. Even in the last Spring Festival Gala, Luo Wenbo was the lead dancer. The challenge for Luo Wenbo on the Spring Festival Gala stage is whether she can create chemistry with the song. On the other hand, as a dancer, Luo Wenbo clearly plays the role of a green leaf in the performance of the song, and she also needs to think about how to shine without being too noticeable.
In "Shepherd of the Cocoanut Sea," Luo Wenbo didn't have a lot of dance moves, just a few runs and jumps to the music. However, his facial expressions and body movements were well controlled, and together with Wang Qi's singing voice, he left a deep impression on the audience. Because of his performance on the Spring Festival Gala stage, Luo Wenbo became famous overnight. Different voices will appear in any type of art work. For Luo Wenbo's performance in "The Shepherd of Cocoto Sea", some viewers thought it was wonderful enough to be the finishing touch, while some viewers thought Luo Wenbo's appearance in the song was redundant.
The skepticism turned into an "attack" on Locke's appearance after the stage helped bring him into the limelight. Some viewers thought that Locke's face looked too stiff, and that the layers of his plastic face were a bit unnatural, giving the audience an overall strange feeling. In this way, the much praised and denigrated Luo Wenbo ended his Spring Festival Gala journey with popularity. It was conceivable that one day the Spring Festival Gala heat would disappear from Luo Wenbo, but it was not expected that this day would come so soon. After leaving the Spring Festival Gala stage, there was no dance program output in the variety market, which meant that Luo Wenbo could not satisfy the audience through the camera, and the loss of popularity was inevitable. There is still a gap between the way dancers and entertainers work. If Luo Wenbo wanted to get on the showbiz stage, there was no need for him to go on variety shows or to become an actor. However, judging from the market feedback after the Spring Festival Gala performance, Luo Wenbo's popularity as a star-turned-dancer may not be high.
