In 1983, the director of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala set four telephones backstage so viewers could ask the actors to perform the requested items. As the on-demand calls were so popular, the lines would literally be overheated, prompting staff members to stand by with a fire extinguisher. 1983年，央视春晚导演在后台设置了四部电话，这样观众就可以要求演员表演指定节目。由于点播电话大受欢迎，电话线路会过热，工作人员不得不拿着灭火器站在一旁。
