On October 1, 1986, a grand military parade was held in *** Square, and the power of the motherland was delivered to the people of the country through television.
It was on this day that Hong Kong-owned Haina Records, which had been established just a few months ago, released the company's first album "My Motherland" to celebrate the birthday of the motherland.
This is a large-scale album with the participation of stars. It was recorded into a 51-minute music video and was broadcast on CCTV at 8pm prime time.
The "My Motherland" album has a total of 10 songs. Except for old songs such as "My Chinese Heart", "My Motherland and Me" and our "Swinging Oars", most of the other songs are new songs.
The recording area spans Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, students, soldiers and dozens of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists. The scale of the span is unprecedented.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Yang Dongxu, who rarely watched TV, sat on the sofa with a smile on his face, watching TV lazily. Zhou Ya sat quietly next to him, peeling a banana for him, while Old Man Xuan took a sip of wine from time to time over a plate of fried peanuts on the other side. Zhou Yiren looked at the documents in his hand with his reading glasses on. No one spoke in the room except the sound of the TV.
"It's begun." When the heavy wooden clock in the room struck eight o'clock, Zhou Ya immediately sat up straight, and Yang Dongxu's expression suddenly became energetic. Zhou Yiren put down the document in his hand, and Old Man Xuan also looked at it. Come over.
The opening scene starts with a scene overlooking the entire island of Hong Kong, and then the camera keeps moving on those old buildings and old archways with Chinese and English fonts.
Finally, the camera zoomed out again, as if it was a thousand miles away in an instant. Hong Kong became a point on the map of China. The camera quickly jumped across the map. The picture of Yanjing City began to zoom in, and finally it was fixed on *** Square.
In just three or four seconds, people's hearts suddenly tightened.
"A hundred years ago I watched you leave.
I look forward to you coming back to me in a hundred years
The vicissitudes of life cannot erase my longing for you,
Calling you again and again, my year 1997
.....................”
Full of reluctance, sighs, longing, care...like a mother's voice about leaving home, it instantly rushed into the ears of people in front of the TV.
The first few sentences showed a scene of a male singer in ** Square, and the next few sentences showed a female singer's scene flashing to Hong Kong.
As the song progressed, the scene kept changing, and finally settled on the signing scene of the "Sino-British Joint Declaration" signed on December 19, 1984, which determined that Hong Kong's sovereignty and political power would officially return to the motherland on July 1, 1997. I don’t know why at this moment, everyone who saw this scene burst into tears.
After the song ended, the camera zoomed out again, this time to Macau. It was night. Children of five or six years old held lotus lanterns in their hands and slowly put them into the water. Their young faces were full of innocence.
"Did you know that Macau (Ma Hong) is not my real last name?
I've been away from you for too long, mother!
But what they kidnapped was my body,
You still keep my inner soul. "
First came the chorus of a group of children. As soon as the childish voices came out, especially after the word 'mother' was called out, countless people shed tears instantly.
The next moment, a little girl of five or six years old walked forward wearing a princess dress.
"Did you know that Macau (Ma Hong) is not my real last name?
I've been away from you for too long, mother!
But what they kidnapped was my body,
You still keep my inner soul. "
The little girl's pitch was very inaccurate, and her speech was even a little unclear, but her voice was like a child's babbling, which made many people of the older generation suddenly clench their fists.
That was a child of five or six years old. At such an old age, he still couldn't pronounce Chinese clearly. The hearts of the older generation seemed to be grasped by something.
"That biological mother who has been dreaming of for three hundred years!
Please call me by your baby name and call me 'Macau'!
Mother! I want to come back, mother! "
Finally, there is a chorus. A group of adult men and women walk behind a group of children. There are young people, middle-aged people, old people, workers in suits and ties, doctors, workers...
When the song ended, countless people in front of the TV burst into tears.
"Mom and dad, why are you crying? The song is so nice!" An innocent child looked at his crying parents with a puzzled look on his face.
But this kind of crying didn't make him feel fear, just innocent confusion and curiosity.
"You are still young and don't understand!"
............................
"Grandpa, Grandpa, you're crying." A little girl with pigtails stretched out her little hands to wipe away the tears on her wrinkled face.
"Little Ya, grow up quickly. Grandpa is getting old. When you grow up, you must go to Hong Kong and Macau..." The old man said, bursting into tears.
............................
Scenes like this happen in every city and every corner of the motherland.
The scene once again returned to Yanjing Square, where a round-faced middle-aged woman in military uniform looked lovingly at the camera for a moment.
"My motherland and I,
cannot be separated for a moment
........................”
After the song "My Motherland and Me" ends. Zhang Wen and Wu Qi appeared and sang "Pearl of the Orient" by Luo Dayou.
Then Dongzi appeared wearing a white shirt, with a confident face and a sunny smile, and opened his hands as if hugging something.
"We all have the same family, and our name is China
There are many brothers and sisters, and the scenery is not bad
There are two dragons at home
It’s the Yangtze River and the Yellow River
............."
It was still an overhead shot, with a panoramic view of the great rivers and mountains in all parts of the motherland, allowing people who were still immersed in sadness to experience the gorgeous scenery of the mainland of the motherland.
After the end of "Great China", there is a song "Spring Story".
Then came the children's chorus "Let's Swing the Oars" again,
Followed by Zhang Mingmin's "My Chinese Heart"
The penultimate song is "Five-Star Red Flag". Yang Dongxu specially asked Teacher Liu to sing this song.
The last song is "I Love the Blue Ocean" sung by Wu Aibing. Wu Aibing, wearing a navy uniform, stands on the deck of a warship with a heroic appearance.
A sonorous and powerful naval song, coupled with rows of soldiers, warships and aircraft, instantly made everyone feel the power of the motherland.
Each song is more than three minutes, or more than four minutes. It lasted a total of 51 minutes. When the last song ended, everyone was still looking at the TV in a daze, feeling lost and not knowing what to do.
The tears, which have not been tortured by too many TV series and movies, allowed them to experience sadness and joy in less than an hour. The humiliation of the motherland in the past and its current strength, in less than an hour time is imprinted in their hearts. .
"It's not bad, right?" Yang Dongxu bumped Zhou Ya, who was standing beside him, with his shoulder.
"This... was this really taken by you?" Zhou Ya, with tears on her face, looked at Yang Dongxu, as if she was watching something extremely incredible.
"That's necessary." Yang Dongxu had a proud smile on his face, but his eyes were red and there seemed to be tears, making the smile look even more proud.
As he spoke, Yang Dongxu looked at Zhou Yiren and Old Man Xuan again, preparing to accept their compliments.
"Not bad." At this time, Zhou Yiren had already stood up and walked to his room, not wanting Yang Dongxu and Zhou Ya to see his wet eyes.
"Don't forget to go over to practice tomorrow." Old man Xuan also left a word and turned to leave.
"Old man Xuan, you were crying just now." Yang Dongxu was unwilling to receive praise, so he shouted loudly.
"You've been delayed a lot by running around these days. I'll give you some medicine tomorrow." Old Man Xuan stiffened for a moment and then left quickly.
"I'll go!" Yang Dongxu's eyes widened and he felt like he was trapped in a cocoon.
Adding some medicine is not just a tonic, it will also torture Yang Dongxu to death. Listening to Old Man Xuan's gnashing of teeth just now, he knew that he was going to suffer tomorrow.
"I'll go with you tomorrow." Zhou Ya looked at Yang Dongxu with a smile on her lips. Although she felt sorry for Yang Dongxu, she seemed to also like to see him shrink in front of Old Man Xuan.
"Revenge is definitely Chi Guoguo's revenge." Yang Dongxu asked Humph, grabbed an apple and took a bite, as if biting old man Xuan again.
The album "My Motherland" is a hit. Although the synchronized tape sales have not been calculated yet, it is definitely a hit.
The next day, all national newspapers, both central and local, had reports about "My Motherland". What was even more outrageous was that the evening news broadcast actually mentioned the album and gave it about 20 seconds. introduction.
Twenty seconds, twenty seconds of news broadcast, this time everyone at Hainer Records felt like they were in heaven.
Not just the mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Canada, Singapore... wherever there are Chinese people, this album has swept across the country like a storm.
"Why didn't you sleep well yesterday?" Yang Dongxu asked, looking at the dark circles under Wu Aibing's eyes and drinking milk.
"I shouldn't have promised you to sing that song." Wu Aibing said angrily.
"Really?" Yang Dongxu glanced at Wu Aibing, especially the **** smile at the corner of his mouth. "How many times did you do it yesterday?"
"Four...go, go, little brat, don't care about these things." Wu Aibing let it slip.
But Yang Dongxu blinked and obviously got the answer he wanted.
That's right, Wu Aibing, who was preparing to continue guarding yesterday, was holding Ye Rongrong as he was getting ready to sleep. Ye Rongrong, who had always been cautious about the last line of defense, suddenly exploded. Regardless of the pain of breaking the melon for the first time, she actually wanted it four times.
So Wu Aibing not only had dark circles under his eyes today, he even walked a little sluggishly.
"Is this useful?" Seeing Yang Dongxu's smile, Wu Aibing quickly changed the subject. The man in front of him was not a simple 13-year-old kid, but a gangster.
"God knows." Yang Dongxu pointed to the ceiling, but the smile on his face was particularly confident.
Letting Wu Aibing and Dongzi sing a song was naturally not because they had talent. Yang Dongxu wanted to promote them as singers. Even Zhou Ya and Wan Jun appeared in "1997 AD", but there were many stars in this song, so they were inconspicuous and only showed their faces in the final chorus.
This is just to show their attitude, but Zhou Ya and Wan Jun's identities are more sensitive, so showing their faces is enough. Dongzi and Wu Aibing are not hiding behind the scenes like Yang Dongxu. The elders behind them like Zhou Ya and Wan Jun are capable.
So let the two of them sing a song alone, just to get a talisman.
Now it seems that whether it is reported by Xinwen Network or major newspapers, although this amulet cannot reach the level of invincible defense of the Admiralty Iron Cloth Shirt, in the future, as long as the two people do not seek death, anyone who wants to deal with them must consider it.
This is equivalent to putting a layer of defense on the business of Yang Dongxu that they manage.
