Obtaining medals and receiving meritorious service are the criteria for promotion to active duty military personnel.
Of course Zheng Qian understands this, and so do all civilian cadres, so almost everyone involved in this recruitment and selection activity has now taken action.
No wonder it is said that art troupe cadres are the easiest branch of the army to get promoted. As long as they have some talents, they can create more classic works and participate in more literary competitions every year. Once they get honors, even if they cannot be promoted immediately, they will accumulate more honors. Obviously
The probability of promotion will be greater.
If a person has achieved third-class merit three or five times, it will be difficult for him not to be promoted.
As for whether he wants to be transferred to the General Political Creation Office, Zheng Qian hasn't given it much thought yet. He can't influence the leaders' ideas. Again, I am just a brick. I can move it wherever it is needed and make a tool.
Just good people.
Xu Lian was a little surprised by Zheng Qian's casualness and indifference. If she had been favored by the two big bosses, she might have been happy for several days, but Zheng Qian didn't seem to care much about it, so she sincerely said
I admire this little brother's indifference to fame and fortune.
Today's trip is to go to the 44th Division camp to perform a condolence performance. It may be that Zheng Qian became famous yesterday, so during the condolence performance in the afternoon, the officers of the 44th Division obviously expressed their excitement and love for Zheng Qian, because
The military does not allow photos to be taken, so invitations to sign autographs abound.
The popularity of the song "For Whom" completely exceeded Zheng Qian's imagination. For the airborne troops, this song contains a huge honor.
Many comrades who sacrificed their lives seemed to have found their sustenance in this song, so when Zheng Qian sang, the whole audience sang again. The sound was so loud that many comrades even had tears in their eyes. Even those who had not participated in flood fighting and disaster relief,
Witnessing this scene, I couldn't help but burst into tears.
Later, "We Soldiers" and "When That Day Comes" were also sung one by one. Hearing the screams of his comrades made their blood boil, and they had a deep impression on Zheng Qian.
Even the leaders of the 44th Division came to the scene in person and expressed their praise for Zheng Qian: "These songs must be promoted throughout the army!"
The group leaders and political commissars behind him nodded in agreement.
This is an excellent military song!
Whether it is in terms of momentum, ideological content or other aspects, it can obviously improve the morale of the officers.
Because he was asked to sing temporarily, Zheng Qian played and sang Choi Kyung Ho's version of "Father" on the guitar.
Different from the original singer's slightly weeping singing style, Zheng Qian's version tends to be restrained and not too emotional. Although the tune is a little lower, it suddenly puts people into the mood of missing their father, and many soldiers quietly wiped their eyes.
.
"That was when I was a kid
Often sitting on father's shoulders
The father is the ladder to the sky
The father is the ox that pulls the cart
I can’t forget that I was raised on a simple diet
I can’t forget the long sigh of half a jug of old wine.”
Zheng Qian's tone is very high and full of tension, and the light piano sound he plays casually reveals a touch of melancholy, which is particularly moving when set against the lyrics.
Many of the soldiers at the scene were born in the 1980s, and more than 90% of them grew up in rural areas. This song "Father" is particularly simple and simple, reaching straight to their hearts and touching their hearts.
"When I grow up
Children in the mountains go out
I think of a letter from home written in my childhood with instructions written thousands of miles away
Pan'ergui fills the sky with a bag of suffocating cigarettes and counts the stars."
Even the leaders couldn't help but applaud after hearing this.
I think back to when I was a child, a letter from home with instructions written thousands of miles away, and when I look forward to my son’s return, I will fill the sky with a bag of stuffy cigarettes and count the stars!
He sings well and writes lyrics well, he is indeed a talent!
The image of their father in many people's memories is particularly clear at this moment, and the voice of warning is still in their ears, but the wanderer in a foreign country can only look at his father across the starry sky, and his feelings of guilt are beyond words.
"They say raising children can prevent old age.
But the mountains are high and the rivers are far away.
It is said that raising children is to prepare for old age.
But no matter how hard or tired you are, you still won’t open your mouth..."
I listened to a short piece of a cappella singing yesterday and it is still fresh in my memory.
Now that she heard the full version of this song played and sung again, Xu Lian was so moved that her heart burst out.
Especially Zheng Qian's singing, which seemed to have no technical skills but was still very beautiful, greatly impressed her.
She knew that this was a natural advantage of her voice that others could not learn. Moreover, her singing voice was very contagious, and every word and every last word seemed to hit her heart.
At this time, many people in the soldiers covered their faces and shed tears while listening to this song.
"Damn it, Teacher Zheng is amazing, this song is so graphic!"
"I miss my dad. Alas, my dad is uneducated and can't speak well. He raised me by working at the lowest level..."
"There is nothing happier than life, and there is nothing more difficult than life."
"I dare not listen! Two years ago, my father had an accident when he was working in other places to help us go to school. He was wearing abrasive shoes on the construction site and the bones of his toes were rubbed out. They were bloody and bloody..."
"It is said that raising children can prevent old age. Alas! I really don't dare to listen to this song..."
One of the deputy company commanders has a more outgoing personality and looks like a hard-blooded man. He had been shouting excitedly when he heard Zheng Qian singing before, but this song suddenly silenced him. If he looked carefully, he could not stop his tears.
stay.
The instructor next to him patted his shoulder and comforted him with a few words: "I understand you. Men don't shed tears easily, but they are not sad yet..."
The deputy company commander shook his head and was about to retort, but suddenly he felt relieved and whispered: "My dad works on a construction site. When I was in high school, I saw my dad mixing cement beside the track during school running exercises, so I
I called him, and he looked up at me, but didn't answer me."
"I was very puzzled at the time. My dad has a very good relationship with me and would never ignore me. After running and doing exercises, I ran over to my dad and asked him why he ignored me. Do you know what he said?
?”
"He said: I'm afraid your classmates will laugh at you in school if they see that I work on a construction site."
The instructor opened his mouth, but didn't know how to comfort him.
He looked at the man who always behaved like a tough guy in his mind. Tears welled up in his eyes and he was moved in his heart.
A man doesn't shed tears lightly, but he hasn't reached the sad point yet!
The deputy company commander smiled, wiped away his tears, straightened his military uniform, and acted calmly: "I cried at that time. I didn't know what to say. Really, I have grown so big that I just broke my body."
I didn’t cry when I was having my legs broken.”
"Zheng Qian is a good singer, but he shouldn't sing this song."
The deputy company commander looked at Zheng Qian performing on the stage and suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Our hearts are also made of flesh, and we also feel guilty."
The instructor's emotion disappeared in an instant, and he pointed at the deputy company commander with a dumbfounded expression: "You are a bit arrogant. You were the loudest when I asked for my signature!"
At this time, the song finally ended. Although he still couldn't control his emotions, the deputy company commander began to regain his heroic spirit and shouted desperately: "Teacher Xu Lian, come on stage! I don't want to hear Teacher Zheng sing anymore."
!He sings so well, it makes you want to cry!”
Zheng Qian was stunned.
After so many performances, this was the first time I was kicked off the stage...
The entire military camp was quiet for a moment, and the next moment, everyone burst into laughter.
