On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are lit up to welcome the new year.
The Spring Festival Gala is an old tradition in China. Seeing that 8 o'clock is approaching, countless people have turned on their TVs and locked in CCTV, looking forward to this year's Spring Festival Gala performances.
The Extraordinary Wardrobe endorsed by Lin Rui grabbed the advertising space before the Spring Festival Gala. Against the background of the huge Extraordinary Wardrobe, the clock began to count down.
3, 2, 1....
The bell rang quietly at eight o'clock in the evening, and the Spring Festival Gala that countless people had longed for officially began.
In a jubilant atmosphere, the four CCTV hosts delivered their congratulatory speeches in a relay style and walked slowly to the center of the stage.
After some opening remarks, the second program began.
"I'm coming!"
Countless people were shocked.
Wang Xuan took the stage and greeted the audience and the audience in front of the TV with New Year's greetings equally generously.
After the prelude, Wang Xuan started singing:
"There is a river in the far east
Its name is the Yangtze River
There is a river in the far east
Its name is the Yellow River
Although I have never seen the beauty of the Yangtze River
In my dreams, I often wander through the waters of the Yangtze River
Although I have never heard of the mighty Yellow River
Surging in the dream"
The first verse of the verse stunned countless people. Especially those living overseas, so is this song for them?
"There is a river in the far east, and its name is the Yangtze River. There is a river in the far east, and its name is the Yellow River. Although I have never seen the beauty of the Yangtze River, I often wander around the Yangtze River in my dreams, although I have never heard the strength and turbulence of the Yellow River. In my dreams..." They chewed on the lyrics carefully, and suddenly felt like crying, feeling like a wanderer returning home.
At this moment, they miss their motherland so much.
At this moment, their mentality of returning to their roots was so strong.
"There was a dragon in the ancient East
Its name is China
There was a group of people in the ancient East
They are all descendants of the dragon
I grew up under the dragon's feet
When he grows up, he will be the descendant of the dragon
Dark eyes, black hair, yellow skin
Forever and forever he will be the descendant of the dragon.”
The second verse of the verse also stunned countless people.
"Wow, this song...is it meant to awaken the national sentiment of overseas Chinese?"
"Not only overseas, I feel that this song is more sung to people in Taiwan, telling them that as long as they have black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, they will always be the descendants of the dragon. No one can erase this. This is to awaken the national sentiment of Taiwanese people and allow them to return to the embrace of the motherland as soon as possible."
"Wang Xuan is amazing, he can compose such a song."
"Yes. The lyrics of this song are not gorgeous, but these simple lyrics are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and can easily resonate with Chinese people at home and abroad."
Anyway, when they heard this paragraph, Taiwanese people watching the Mainland CCTV Spring Festival Gala were also stunned.
As long as he has black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, is he a descendant of the dragon? is that so? After being separated from the motherland for so long, does the motherland still recognize them as sons and daughters of the Chinese nation?
At this moment, many Taiwanese people feel really complicated. They have the desire to return to the embrace of the motherland, but they are also afraid that the motherland will not accept them. People on Taiwan still reject them.
...
And it’s not just Taiwanese who feel this way.
In Xiangjiang Times Square, many people gathered here at this moment. When "Descendants of the Dragon" played on the big screen in Times Square, the eyes of countless people were attracted.
When the lyrics "I grew up under the feet of the dragon, and when I grow up, I will be the descendant of the dragon, with black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, I will always be the descendant of the dragon", many people burst into tears.
Although Xiangjiang has long returned to China, to be honest, many people in Xiangjiang still have no sense of belonging and always feel that they are out of tune with the mainland. But at this moment, after hearing this song, they found a sense of belonging.
No matter what, dark eyes, black hair, and yellow skin are symbols that only Chinese people have. Blood is thicker than water, and no one can separate it.
Since the return of Xiangjiang, most people in Xiangjiang have not been to the mainland. At this moment, many people have the idea of going to the mainland to take a look.
...
It’s 8 o’clock in the morning in Times Square, Big Apple City.
The road is full of pedestrians rushing to work.
But I am still happy to have the class. The most troublesome are those who don't even get to the class.
In a corner of Times Square, there were two young people holding resumes and looking for jobs in front of job advertisements.
They are a couple, the boy is Chen Rui and the girl is Li Bing. You can tell by their names that they are Chinese and they just graduated from Apple University's Department of Finance.
Apple University is an internationally renowned university, ranking among the top 30 in the world. The Department of Finance at Apple University is a very strong major, ranking among the top five among all majors at Apple University.
Chen Rui and Li Bing had outstanding grades in school and received many scholarships. With their grades, they should be able to find jobs after graduation. However, they encountered obstacles one after another.
The two of them were rejected by a company just now. When they called, they hung up without even listening to their self-introductions.
This made Chen Rui a little discouraged.
"Chen Rui, don't be discouraged, you can always find a job." Li Bing comforted her boyfriend.
"But we have been rejected N times. Either the interview was rejected, or we didn't even get the chance to interview." Chen Rui became more and more frustrated as he spoke, and even collapsed, "Bingbing, I don't understand, why is this? Our grades are so good. , why aren’t they willing to give us a chance?”
"Maybe it's because we are Chinese," Li Bing said.
"But we have nothing to do with China for a long time. Our parents have come to Eagle Country to work hard a long time ago. Both of us were born in Eagle Country and are natives of Eagle Country..."
"No, we are not from the Eagle Country. Although we were born in the Eagle Country, it does not change the fact that the blood of Chinese people flows in our bodies. Wake up, Chen Rui, we must not forget our roots."
"What does forgetting one's origins mean? I was born and raised in the Eagle Country, and I received the education of the Eagle Country. Has the Chinese Country ever done me any favors? Has the Chinese Country provided me with any help?"
"That was our parents' choice. If we chose to work hard abroad, it would be difficult for us to enjoy domestic benefits, but we would definitely enjoy our status as Chinese. Since we were young, haven't others always treated us as Chinese? Chen Rui, I think we should just go back to China for development. I heard that China is developing well now, and with our academic qualifications, we will definitely be able to find good jobs when we return to China."
"No, our parents worked hard to go abroad, isn't it just so that we can have better development, a better living environment, and enjoy better educational resources and medical resources? Look at how many poor students are working hard They have been destined to go abroad. They spent ten years studying English hard, and it will take another ten years to be on the same starting line as us. We finally came out, why should we go back?"
"But this is not our hometown after all, don't you see? It's hard for us to find a job. When people see that we have Chinese faces, they reject us."
"No! I'm not stupid to leave the most developed country and return to that remote place. I want to take root here and let my future children enjoy the best living environment and the best life." Benefits.”
"..." Li Bing was stunned when he heard this and didn't know what to say. At this moment, the sound of New Year greetings in Chinese suddenly came from the big screen in Times Square, New York.
Li Bing was stunned, and when he looked up, he saw a handsome Chinese face appearing on the huge screen, greeting everyone with a smile on his face: "Hello everyone, Wang Xuan is here to greet everyone, and wish everyone a happy new year. Be happy, have abundant wealth, everything goes as you wish, and all your wishes will come true.”
"It seems like China's Spring Festival Gala." Li Bing's boyfriend Chen Rui said.
Of course Li Bing knew it was the Huaguo Spring Festival Gala, because the Huaguo CCTV logo was still there in the upper left corner of the big screen. What surprised her was that the Chinese Spring Festival Gala was actually broadcast abroad, and even the big screen in the Big Apple Times Square was broadcasting the program live...
In Eagle Country, a place where everything depends on money, how much does this cost?
This was unimaginable before. It seems that China is really different. At least its economy is developing very fast. Otherwise, how could the CCTV Spring Festival Gala have money to invest in Eagle Country?
"Wang Xuan..." Li Bing murmured, feeling that the name seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere. I remembered that the song "Dream Wedding" they learned in vocal music class seemed to be composed by a Chinese, and the composer seemed to be named Wang Xuan?
is it him?
At the moment when I was thinking wildly, a song came from the big screen: "There is a river in the far east, and its name is the Yangtze River. There is a river in the far east, and its name is the Yellow River."
At this time, there were many Chinese people hurriedly walking on the streets of Times Square. When they heard this sentence, all the Chinese people were shocked. The Yangtze River and the Yellow River are both famous rivers in China, known as the mother river of China. It is unknown how many people have been raised by these two rivers. When everyone heard these two lyrics, they felt majestic and at the same time intimate.
"Although I have never seen the beauty of the Yangtze River. In my dreams, I often wander through the water of the Yangtze River. Although I have never heard the strength and turbulence of the Yellow River in my dreams."
I don’t know why, but when he heard this second sentence, Li Bing burst into tears. She grew up in the Eagle Country and has never been back to China. Her knowledge of China is limited to the few words her parents chat with her and all the information she can see on the Internet.
But at this moment, Li Bing suddenly had an infinite yearning for China.
The same goes for others. Many people who came from China to work hard suddenly thought of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, their hometown, and their relatives and friends in their hometown.
They are homesick!
"With black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, you will always be the descendant of the dragon..."
This sentence may not have any special feelings for many Chinese people who came from China to work hard, but it just aroused their homesickness. But for Li Bing, she was stunned at this moment.
She had told her boyfriend before that they were not from the Eagle Country. Although they were born in the Eagle Country, it could not change the fact that they had Chinese blood flowing in their bodies. But in fact, when he said this, Li Bing didn't know whether it was wishful thinking on his part, or whether the Chinese side recognized her as a Chinese. After all, she was born and grew up in the Eagle Country.
But now, hearing these two lyrics, she suddenly received recognition from the other side of the ocean. No matter where they are, as long as they have black eyes, black hair, and yellow skin, they will always be the descendants of the dragon.
The song continued, and some foreigners walked away because they didn't understand.
Some were still standing there watching the fun.
"So today is the Spring Festival in China? The Spring Festival Gala is actually held here."
"A magical country."
"That Chinese boy is so handsome. Is he a star?"
And almost all the Chinese people on the street stopped there. They want to listen to this song to the end, and they even plan to watch the Chinese New Year Gala at the same place.
Finally, the song was finished. The next program was a cross talk sketch. Li Bing looked at the screen steadily, but his attention was not on the program, but on his wandering mind.
"Bingbing, stop looking. While it's still early, let's go find the next company." Her boyfriend Chen Rui brought Li Bing back to reality.
Li Bing suddenly laughed.
"Go find it, I plan to return to China."
"No? Why do you suddenly want to return to China? Don't make trouble, listen to me. China is a remote place. You are still unfamiliar with the place. It is best for us to stay in Eagle Country. Didn't we also say that we will work hard together? Is it our business? If you go back to China, what will happen to my boyfriend?"
"Langzai! If you like Eagle Country so much, just stay here. I won't accompany you anymore. Why should I stay here as a fifth-class citizen when I can obviously live an upright life?" Li Bing said.
"..."
"By the way, there is one more thing I want to congratulate you on."
"What?"
"Happy breakup! Congratulations on being single again, bye!" After saying that, Li Bing walked away with her head held high, and no matter what Chen Rui said, she never looked back. As for the stack of resumes in her hand, she threw them directly into the trash can.
She has a very foreign name on those resumes, Emily.
Fuck you Emily, from now on I will change my name whether I am in business or not, my surname will be Li, and my single name will be Bing!
...
At this time, after seeing the Chinese Spring Festival Gala and hearing the song "Descendants of the Dragon", there are many overseas Chinese who want to return to China.
Angel City, around Meilaiwu, Magic Light Special Effects Company.
At this moment, there are several young Chinese people who are packing their luggage silently and planning to embark on the journey back home.
They were all international students who came from China in their early years. After completing their studies, they stayed in Eagle Country to work hard. This special effects company was founded by them together. The technology is absolutely excellent, but it is not very popular in Meilaiwu, and it hardly receives any orders in a year.
Others don't give them a chance to show their strength. The reason is very simple, they are Chinese, and the people of Eagle Country have a natural discrimination against Chinese people. Even if their price is several times cheaper than other special effects companies, they will not give them a chance.
In fact, they have established this company for several years, and every year they can either make ends meet or lose money. They thought about closing the door, but were unwilling to do so.
In other words, they have always dreamed of one day being able to break into the world in Meilaiwu.
I also thought about returning to my country, but I was afraid that I would be laughed at by others. After all, I went to study in Eagle Country, but I still accomplished nothing even a few years after graduation. In fact, I am more afraid that what I have learned in my life will be of no use after I return to my country. After all, it seems that China’s film culture has always been very backward. Will their special effects skills be put to use?
But illusions are illusions after all, and they will be shattered one day. After years of losses, they finally couldn't bear it anymore and were embarrassed to ask their family for money anymore. So they were already planning to close their doors, go their separate ways, and apply for jobs at other special effects companies in Hollywood.
But isn’t it the Spring Festival in China today? So before they closed, they planned to have a New Year's Eve dinner together and watch the Chinese Spring Festival Gala together. Then they heard the song "Descendants of the Dragon" sung by Wang Xuan, and their DNA was finally awakened, and they unanimously decided to return to China.
"Go back to the country! Let's go back to the country!"
"Yes, go to hell with Meilaiwu. If you don't want me here, I'll have my own place!"
"Damn it, our technology has been learned a long time ago, I don't believe we can't find a use for it in China!"
"Definitely. I just saw the Chinese crowd and I heard that the Spring Festival Gala of the motherland is shown on the big screen of Times Square in the Big Apple. The motherland has long been powerful, and it is not what it used to be."
"Even if I have to work, I won't work for people from the Eagle Country!"
...
At this time in China, netizens had already finished listening to Wang Xuan's song, and their reactions were huge. The Internet was abuzz.
"Holy shit! This song is so exciting! All the DNA in my body has been awakened. Descendants of the Dragon, this metaphor is so appropriate."
"Yes. We are all descendants of the dragon, and we are proud to be the descendants of the dragon."
"No wonder Wang Xuan is invited to open the show. With this song, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala's ratings will definitely explode."
"Wang Xuan YYDS!"
