10-second stage performance in the style of the Chinese New Year Gala (Chunwan): “Zhen Huan & Consort Hua Talk Show”
0–2 seconds:
Medium Two-shot.
The stage setting is a “living room skit,” but the periphery is surrounded by a grand, red and gold LED main screen typical of Chunwan.
Zhen Huan (left) and Consort Hua (right) sit side-by-side on a modern talk show sofa.
Key historical accuracy requirement: Both are wearing ornate, distinctly differentiated Manchu Qing Dynasty court flag dresses (Qizhuang), with stand collars, complex and exquisite embroidery; their hairstyles are accurately restored “Da La Chi” or “Dian Zi Tou,” adorned with tassel decorations.
Consort Hua looks casual, holding a pickled cucumber (sour cucumber) and gnawing on it, wearing long golden nail guards (finger covers) on her fingers.
2–4 seconds:
Camera switches to an Over-the-Shoulder (OTS) shot, focusing on Consort Hua.
Consort Hua rolls her eyes exaggeratedly (the classic “eye roll” expression).
While holding the pickled cucumber, she points and gestures with her fingers wearing long nail guards, speaking in an arrogant tone (lip sync):
“This year, my KPI is once again defeating these little demons. What does that old man, the Emperor, know about aesthetics?”
4–6 seconds:
Quick switch to Zhen Huan’s Over-the-Shoulder (OTS) shot.
Contrast detail: Zhen Huan wears a modern white Bluetooth earphone on one ear (a strong contrast with the ancient jewelry), and is scrolling on a thin tablet computer in her hand.
She responds calmly and professionally (lip sync):
“Sister, don’t be angry, this is called workplace involution. I’m thinking of quitting and selling ‘Shu Hen Jiao’ (Scar-Removing Balm).”
6–8 seconds:
Close-up shot focuses on the coffee table between the two.
A modern plastic bubble tea cup labeled “Yi Zhang Hong” (A Rod of Red) is placed next to a traditional porcelain vase.
The camera quickly whips back to the two of them.
8–10 seconds:
Full stage view.
Audience laughter effect (presented via lighting changes / applause lights).
Consort Hua strikes her final pose: legs crossed, chin raised, rolling her eyes again.
Zhen Huan smiles professionally at the camera, like a news anchor.
Golden streamers fall from the air.
The festive red atmosphere is pushed to its climax.
Style and Atmosphere:
**Visuals:** High-saturation Chunwan red and gilded tones
**Costumes:** Museum-grade Qing Dynasty court attire (silk, fine embroidery, heavy headwear)
**Core Contrast:** The solemnity of Qing court etiquette × the relaxed, complaining posture of modern office workers / talk show guests
**Cinematography:** Sharp rhythm, clear comedic points, sitcom-style editing
**Aspect Ratio:** 16:9
