"Mom~, why are you in a hurry? It's only one o'clock, those people are not here so early."
At one o'clock in the morning, fireworks can be seen everywhere in the sky from time to time. This is people's celebration of the Olympic Games.
Under this bustling night, Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong helped their grandmother out of the villa door.
Zhou Wenqiong and her grandmother have been in Beijing for several days, specifically to see the Olympic Games, and especially to see the glorious moment when their two children pass the Olympic torch.
In the past two days, I went to the streets along the torch route in the morning and saw that the huge crowds of people were nothing compared to the sound of firecrackers going off. The people's shouts and shouts were not much worse than the loud sound of firecrackers going off.
I didn't see the torch, but the number of people was overwhelming.
It was such a crowded scene that my grandmother couldn't even see the torch even though she was sweating.
Today is August 8th, the day when two children will pass the torch.
Grandma can’t sit still. It’s okay if she can’t see others passing the torch. If our granddaughter and grandson-in-law can’t see her passing the torch, then she will regret it for the rest of her life.
The old lady goes to bed at seven o'clock in the evening and wakes up in the early hours of the night.
It was only one o'clock in the morning, so I picked up my two daughters and set off for Chang'an Avenue, with the goal of grabbing the front row.
Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong were dumbfounded by their mother's enthusiasm. They asked her to sleep a little longer before leaving, but she refused. She said: "I may only regret missing this glorious moment of Xiaoxuan and Qianqian for a few years."
For the next ten years or so, you will regret for the rest of your life that your children are doing great things, but you are not active at all as a mother, you are really unqualified."
Come on, she has been criticized as being unqualified as a mother, what else can Liu Xiaoli do?
I could only clean up with my sister Zhou Wenqiong and accompany my mother to go out to set up the streets in the middle of the night, in order to satisfy my mother's wish to come to Beijing to watch her children pass the torch.
In order to witness the glorious trip of the two children at home, it was the first time in their minds that the whole family went out together late at night. The experience of such a family going out in the middle of the night also made them feel fresh.
Just like that, my cousin drove the car, and under Liu Xiaoli's guidance, the family headed for Chang'an Street in Chaoyang District.
…
Beijing, Chang'an Street.
To be precise, it is West Chang'an Street, west of Tiananmen Square.
The lights of the police cars flashed continuously, mixing with the street lights to illuminate the sky.
Police cordons were set up on both sides of the avenue, with police and volunteers guarding the area.
While they were chatting, they all looked at the sparkling fire on the street to the west in the distance.
The flames were advancing and people were running.
After getting closer and closer, I heard someone say: "Chu Xuan, come here."
Chu Xuan handed the sacred fire to the person in front, and Liu Yifei ran slowly from behind: "Team leader, is this the last time?"
The team leader nodded: "For the last time, your drill mission ends here."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei became nervous. The exercise mission was over, which meant that the next time it would be official.
In these days of closed life, I sleep in the morning, attend classes in the afternoon, exercise in the evening, and practice in the early morning, which is very regular.
The young couple thought that running 200 meters was very simple at first, and it was indeed very simple, but this simplicity refers to behavior.
But psychologically, these 200 meters seemed like a chasm, and every step during the exercise felt heavy.
Even though the two of them had practiced many times in the past few nights and were completely familiar and proficient, they still felt unsure.
The task is simple, but it can be of great significance, which will cause behavioral and psychological contradictions.
The young couple's mentality at this time also confirmed this sentence.
"Don't be nervous." The team leader saw the two of them were a little panicked, and smiled and patted Chu Xuan on the shoulder: "I usually run in the morning during drills. I go to eat something to fill my stomach first. You are not allowed to eat or drink when it is close to dawn.
If you have a stomachache, it will be a big problem."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei nodded and walked towards the logistics team, where someone would prepare food.
It was already past three o'clock in the morning, and there were already many people on the sidewalks on both sides of the street. There was constant chatter, and the sound of individuals sleeping and snoring while sitting in private recliners could also be heard intermittently.
It is not surprising that the young couple has seen many such spectacles in the past few days.
Taking the steamed buns and soy milk from the logistics staff, the young couple sat by the flower bed and started eating.
"Qian..." A voice suddenly came from outside the police cordon on the other side. It was my cousin's.
Grandma and the others have been on Chang'an Street for a while. They could only walk outside the cordon. It was late at night and they couldn't see people clearly. They missed their precious granddaughter so much that they searched and searched for nearly an hour. Finally, they found her under the streetlight.
I saw two children by the flower bed.
The cousin wanted to shout, but was interrupted by grandma: "Shh, don't disturb them, let them get ready."
Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Wenqiong looked at each other and smiled. This old lady, I am thinking too hard. I have found someone, but I am afraid of disturbing others.
People of this older generation, at best, are thoughtful, at worst, they are worried.
But in very pure terms, this is also a manifestation of the deep love the elders have for their grandchildren.
As early as a few days ago, Liu Xiaoli called her two children to tell them that her grandmother and aunt had come to Beijing, but they could not go home. They had not been able to see their family in the past few days, and could only worry about them in their hearts.
At this moment, the young couple had no idea that their family members were watching them silently from across the street, giving them silent support and love.
"Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, are here." The team leader shouted.
At around four o'clock in the morning, the torchbearers began to take up their positions, standing every 200 meters or so.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei hugged each other and said to each other: "Come on."
Immediately, the two of them left, one on the left and the other on the right, and came to the seats assigned to them on the avenue, waiting for the start and arrival of the torch relay on the last day of today.
During this period, several women from the logistics team traveled back and forth to check the neatness of each torchbearer's clothing and provide reminders and adjustments on mental issues.
The torchbearers all wear light red and yellow clothes with a five-star red flag on their chests.
Liu Yifei has a ponytail and looks youthful, lively and full of vigor.
Chu Xuan's simple broken hair, with no bangs as always, looks very sunny, and his resolute face highlights his masculine and upright demeanor.
"Grandma, mother, aunt, cousin."
At six o'clock in the morning, the sky was slightly bright.
Liu Yifei had been standing for more than an hour, looking around slightly bored. Many tourists or fans on the roadside waved and greeted her excitedly. And among the crowd with so many faces that they almost overlapped, she spotted her family members.
The family members were at the front of the cordon, and they probably came here at midnight to watch her and Chu Xuan pass the torch.
Liu Yifei felt very warm and raised her hand to wave to her family.
Liu Xiaoli, Zhou Wenqiong, and grandma looked doting on each other. There were so many people and they were far away from Liu Yifei so they couldn't talk to each other, so they each gave her a thumbs up to cheer her up.
"I'm coming!"
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sun rises in the east.
The Olympic flame has been passed from the first group to the second group. The torch appeared on the street on the west corner of Chang'an Avenue, which means that the second group has been passed to the third group.
When she heard people nearby starting to cheer, Liu Yifei couldn't help but turn around and look around. Five or six people were just shy of her, and she was both excited and nervous.
This excitement and tension caused her hearing to blur, and she was cut off from the noise nearby.
Here, there are four more people... She took a breath and clenched her fists.
Closer, there were three more people... She paced uneasily and moved her ankles.
Almost there, there are two more people... She put her hands on her hips, pretending to be a slight warm-up gesture to hide her panic.
When we arrived, there was only one person left... She put down her hands on her hips, pursed her lips tightly, and bit her lower lip again.
"Come on, I'll leave it to you." The holy fire was handed to him.
Liu Yifei nodded heavily. It was still the auspicious cloud-style torch, which was exactly the same as the prop model used in the drill.
But when I picked it up, it felt completely different from the one I had during the drill.
It seems as heavy as Mount Tai, which is very appropriate to describe it at this moment.
"Liu Yifei, come on!!" People nearby cheered.
"Come on Sissi!!" Grandma shouted unconsciously, shouting so excitedly that she jumped up and clapped her hands even though she was in her seventies.
This is a national event, the Olympics. This is her baby granddaughter. This is the most glorious moment in her baby granddaughter's life, and it is worthy of her heartfelt celebration.
It was as if Liu Yifei had never heard of it. Even though her family often said that she was naturally unafraid of the camera and stage fright, she still felt a little frightened in such an occasion.
Global focus…
The attention of the whole country...
Tens of thousands of people came in person...
How many people can have such a situation in their lives?
She is grateful to her motherland for allowing her to have such a wonderful experience at the age of 20.
Thanks to my mother, she was good enough to shoulder this honor at a young age.
Dear Yu Chu Xuan, because of Chu Xuan's support, guidance, respect and mutual achievements, she has experienced a growth process that is above the industry but difficult for ordinary people to have at such an age.
"come on!"
"The Kingdom of China is rising!!"
Hearing the hoarse shouts of the masses and the patriotic atmosphere of national unity conveys what it means: I love this land deeply.
This is very motivating, inspiring, and heart-warming.
Liu Yifei's heart was filled with tears. This feeling gave her a deeper understanding of Chu Xuan's insistence on the industrialization of film and television. She also had a higher level of resonance with Chu Xuan's attitude towards foreign culture.
The dream of film and television culture has a firmer ambition.
At the same time, she said that those who scolded her online before, are still insulting her online now, and may continue to insult her in the future...
At this moment, with the support of tens of millions of people and the explosion of their patriotic cohesion, her mood seemed to have sublimated. She could not say that she was completely relieved of all the bad things, but she could only say that she would only care less in the future.
As long as she is born towards the sun and shows her splendor all the way... she has gained more ambition in her heart.
"Come on." Liu Yifei smiled and passed the torch to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan and her looked at each other, and her eyes were full of encouragement and love, as well as a hint of determination buried deep in her eyes, as if the mood had washed away all the glory.
Chu Xuan didn't have time to communicate with her, so he turned around and ran away after taking the torch.
"Come on!!" the crowd shouted.
"Come on Chu Xuan!!" cheered as he met Chu Xuan.
"Come on Xiaoxuan!!" Grandma raised a fisted hand and waved to help Chu Xuan.
Originally, Grandma and the others wanted to follow her, but if they left their position, they would lose sight of her at all.
They could only watch Chu Xuan's back slowly go away. Fortunately, a straight street also kept Chu Xuan's figure within their sight, allowing them to always give Chu Xuan's family members cheers and support.
Chu Xuan was a little regretful. His route would not pass through Tiananmen Square, and his route would only end at the edge of Tiananmen Square.
How glorious it would be to hold a torch and shine in front of Tiananmen Square.
But you should not be too greedy. Being able to serve as a torchbearer, and the route is still close to the front section of Tiananmen Square, is undoubtedly a very happy thing.
The sun is extraordinarily bright today, and the rising light is extremely dazzling. It shines golden on the red wall of Tiananmen Square. The golden light shines obliquely on his face. It is warm and makes him squint at the same time.
.
Tiananmen carries the traces of many years in this land.
Witnessing the country's collapse, writing the history of the people's struggle, recording the tears of walking on thin ice, discovering the fate of the people, illuminating the people's dawn, and also foreseeing the rise of the country.
Looking back on the past, it is both difficult and exciting.
Going out of the Northeast will determine the world, and two bombs and one star will stabilize the country.
The chaos in southern Burma is calming down southern Burma, and South Vietnam is being beaten up by the increasing aggression.
The wise leader had unique vision. During the period when the West was fighting against the North, and when he wanted to win over China, he launched reform and opening up in one fell swoop.
A large number of technologies were introduced, a large number of factories were built, a large number of economic operations were carried out, and all domestic industries flourished instantly.
After reaching the new millennium and joining the WTO at the end of the second year, the multilateral economy developed along the trend and it was too late to suppress suffering.
For example, in the past few years, even if the West raises soybean prices, even if the West raises trade tax rates, and even if the West wants to suppress the value of the RMB, so what?
When China becomes self-sufficient, its rise is only a matter of time, and no force or country can stop it.
If the hard one doesn't work, then what about the soft one?
I still remember the dynasty records in history textbooks back then: Yu, Xia, Shang and Zhou were divided into the east and west, and the three kingdoms of Qin, Han and Jin were divided into two.
Under the Western ideological propaganda, under the Western nihilistic ideas about history, they were fooled by a group of brainwashed intellectuals. Looking at the current history textbooks, the Yu and Xia dynasties are gone.
Two dynasties well recorded in history are gone? These intellectuals are also talented people. If they don’t believe in their own history and culture, they believe in the God who comes from the West just by opening his mouth.
You just believe in Hongjun Daozu, at least it’s something in our Chinese culture, right?
This is very helpless.
But Chu Xuan firmly believes that when the country completely rises, when the nation completely rejuvenates, China's soft culture will also completely shine.
"The Kingdom of China is rising!!"
The noisy and loud shouts continued, and the boiling and passionate roars continued.
Just like now, the whole world is looking at China, and all China is looking at today.
The cohesive power of the crowd's shouts burst out at this moment, and the five-star red flag also covered all the TV screens at this moment.
The sky in Beijing is also blue, and the sun in the sky is brilliant. Under the bright sunshine are faces of unity. This broadcast to the world is undoubtedly a powerful cultural export, a shock to civilization, and a national glory.
Ye, who was shining brightly in the light, turned away the angle of view, and the whole view of Tiananmen came into view. Even from a distance, one could feel its grandeur.
Chu Xuan inadvertently looked at the center of Tiananmen Square. The portrait looked blurry from too far away. The majesty in it was indescribable, but it filled him with blood for no reason. What he was about to say was the words that made his heart surge:
