The skinny old man's name is Zhang Aimin. Although he looks old, he is actually only fifty-seven years old. He is a national second-level actor. He is mainly good at suona, cucurbit and other wind instruments. His performance has been quite satisfactory since he joined the troupe, and he has been promoted to the sixth-level civilian cadre.
It all depends on qualifications.
However, Zhang Aimin is an old comrade. He is about to retire. The troupe takes care of him and tries not to arrange heavy performance tasks for him. After all, the fatigue of traveling and traveling consumes energy and energy. This makes Zhang Aimin more leisurely. He usually likes to give advice and write passionately.
, he is an authentic old man from Beijing, but he has no bad intentions and is just idle.
"Stranger Tides" has been on the air these past two days. The plot and theme song made the old Zhang Aimin burst into tears. However, he is not good at showing emotions, so although he loves talents like Zheng Qian from the bottom of his heart, when it comes to superficial
, it looks like he is looking for trouble.
But Zheng Qian didn't take it seriously.
When we first registered, it was Zhang Aimin who arranged it. Otherwise, for a young cadre Zheng Qian to register two numbers at a time and use two rehearsal halls, it would be too unruly.
Wei Yehong pulled Zheng Qian towards the corner and asked, "I heard from Director Yang that you are asked to write a recruitment song? Are you sure about it?"
Zheng Qian raised his hand and shook the document bag: "I have written it all, you can listen to it during rehearsal later!"
Wei Yehong said with a surprised look on her face: "So fast? Okay, let's listen first. With your talent, if it doesn't work, then change. There is still enough time!"
Zheng Qian smiled and said: "Then you have to listen to it later. I think this song is quite suitable now."
Wei Yehong had heard Zheng Qian's song "For Whom" and knew that Zheng Qian was also good at writing military songs, so he smiled and nodded, and then said: "The 22nd of the month is the Dragon Boat Festival, and there is a performance assignment. Director Yang should follow
Did you say that? You need to prepare two programs, mention
I will be rehearsing in advance, and I will be performing in multiple camps, which is quite tiring. I have spent almost all my food and accommodation in the military area for three consecutive days, living with the local officers and soldiers. By the way, this is your first mission, so I asked Officer Yang to follow you.
If you don’t understand anything, just ask him directly.”
"I understand!" Zheng Qian nodded vigorously.
He was still a little excited in his heart. Being a soldier was something every man fantasized about. Being able to eat and sleep together with his fellow soldiers in the camp was exciting just thinking about it. A sense of sacred mission also came over him instantly, which made him excited.
Zheng Qian's whole body was numb and he felt very happy.
Wei Yehong said: "I know you are from Guangdong Province, so I will arrange for you to perform in the airborne troops of the Guangdong Province Military Region. Is that okay?"
Zheng Qian was excited, this is exactly what I want!
He immediately saluted and said loudly: "No problem, thank you chief, Zheng Qian promises to complete the task!"
Because the sound was so loud, many people around looked over with a smile.
Wei Yehong returned the salute helplessly, and said quietly: "You are not allowed to call me Chief anymore! Call me Sister Hong, you know? You are not allowed to salute me except on formal occasions!"
Zheng Qian coughed: "This... I think it's very sacred! Sister Hong, don't you think the title of chief is majestic and dignified?"
"I'm just a sixth-level civilian cadre."
Wei Yehong gritted her teeth and said, "I am not worthy of the title of chief!"
Zheng Qian pretended to be silly and smiled: "That's how it's done on TV!"
Wei Yehong stretched out her hand expressionlessly, pinched the flesh of Zheng Qian's armpit hard.
The latter suddenly grimaced in pain, but a warm current surged through his heart.
He didn't know how the contestants who were taken away by other art troupes after "Singer" were treated, but he was very grateful that he chose Wei Yehong and the Kongzheng Art Troupe.
Sister Wei, if nothing else, is a really nice person. Her support and care for her are visible to the naked eye. Zheng Qian is not a white-eyed wolf, so he is naturally very grateful.
Soon, it was Zheng Qian's turn to rehearse.
This is a folk art rehearsal hall. Some traditional musical instruments, such as dulcimer, octagonal drum, Jingyun drum, and even cross talk, storytelling and other skills can be rehearsed, including singing of course.
Zheng Qian took out the lyrics and memory card from his document bag, handed the memory card to the staff, and asked him to play the tracks inside. Then he put on the headphones and waited for a while. After the seniors in front finished rehearsing, he walked on
On the stage, I took the microphone and gave a few greetings.
There were more and more people in the audience, all civilian cadres who came to rehearse. Time was precious. After Zheng Qian adjusted the equipment, he asked the staff to play the accompaniment.
Zheng Qian was so angry that he sang loudly in his bel canto style.
"What's the difference between us soldiers?
Just because we are all wearing simple military uniforms
What's the difference between us soldiers?
Ever since I left my hometown, it’s been hard to see my parents..."
Zheng Qian's articulation was clear and sonorous, and his pitch was very high. For ordinary people, he would definitely have lost his voice in the end, but Zheng Qian just sang it completely.
This immediately made many cadres look at him with admiration. They all whispered to each other, nodded and gave affirmation.
The basic skills are very solid.
The treble characteristics are very prominent.
It's rare to have such singing skills at such a young age.
"It's different, but it's actually the same
They are all in their youthful years. They are all hot-blooded men.
They say it's different, but it's actually the same
The same footprints are left behind, the mountains are high and the rivers are long——"
Wei Yehong's focus was different. She listened to the song carefully, and only smiled slightly at the chorus.
“A very memorable song!”
Yang Hongyi praised: "I like it! It's also good to use as a recruitment song. I think this song will be widely circulated. It seems that Zheng Qian has remembered what I said yesterday!"
"What did you say?" Wei Yehong asked curiously.
"I said that if his works can be promoted throughout the army, he will have a high chance of winning the special award for the most popular military song in the army, which is awarded annually. At that time, he will have the opportunity to be promoted."
Yang Hongyi laughed and said: "Then he wrote this song. Although it is not as touching as "For Whom", the chorus keeps repeating 'We are soldiers', which is obviously very brainwashing and memorable, haha,
In order to win the prize, this kid has a lot of thoughts!"
Wei Yehong smiled: "This song can indeed achieve a popular effect, and the key lyrics are also very good. It highlights the tenacity and selfless dedication of soldiers, echoes the main theme of the times, and it does have a chance to win awards."
At this time, when people from major art troupes learned that Zheng Qian's song was original and had the chance to be selected as this year's recruitment song, they were extremely surprised and expressed their approval of Zheng Qian's song.
In particular, lyrics such as "head resting on the bright moon at the border, covered with rain, snow, wind and frost", "for the sake of national peace, we hold the gun tightly" and the last "the same style is flying on the flag of the Republic" perfectly highlight the warrior
The meaning of being a soldier.
After finishing the song, Zheng Qian's performance was remarkable and he won applause from the audience, with many people expressing their appreciation.
"I heard that this song is going to be used as this year's recruitment song?"
"It's very good. It's full of faith and makes people feel proud. That's how the military song should be sung!"
"This young man likes me very much. Look at his posture. When he stands, he is as straight as a pine tree, and when he sings, he is as powerful as a rainbow!"
"I was a little surprised. I sang a song in such a high key without blushing or out of breath. My basic skills are so solid."
"If you tell me, you won't believe it. "For Whom" was also written by him. It's two main theme songs in a row. It's very promising..."
