Welcome song
Hua Kai's friends are here.
Flowers and wine get together to express their feelings.
New friends and old friends are honest with each other.
Love is always in spring.
Come on, come on. ...
Friends, friends, let's join hands.
Put the golden bridge of friendship on five continents.
The Silk Road connects the four seas.
Welcome Song: The Background of the Birth of Famous Songs
On August 8, 2008, when President Hu Jintao and his wife Liu Yongqing hosted a welcome state banquet for the guests and dignitaries from all over the world attending the Beijing Olympic Games, they started with the joyful and festive welcome song background music. For more than 20 years, this song "Welcome Song", written by Liu Wenyu and written by Lei Yusheng, a professor in the Music Department of South China Normal University, has become a household name. On September 25th, Lei Yusheng, who came to Shenyang to attend the celebration of Shenyang Conservatory of Music, meaningfully recalled the creation of Welcome Song and expressed his tenderness for his good friend Liu Wenyu.
Lei Yusheng said that he started to cooperate with Liu Wenyu in Liaoning Opera House in 1960, and together they created many excellent works on the opera stage. "The most admirable thing is that he has no complaints and is diligent in his creation, and his works are full of love for the people and the times. He is a good son of the people. " 1980 created the theme song for the new film "Where do the guests come from?" , reflecting the Canton Fair. At that time, flowers were everywhere in Guangzhou, and foreign friends and domestic guests gathered together. The novelty and excitement at the beginning of the reform made people have a very strong creative impulse.
"Although Guangdong was at the forefront of reform and opening up at that time, we were still very closed. When we saw the disco that the heroine bought from Hong Kong, we didn't know what it was. So I want to add some trendy elements about western music to my works. But after the creation, I felt that it was not ideal and too trendy. Instead, I lost our traditional things ... "Just when I was in a dilemma, Lei Yusheng suddenly came up with a welcome song played locally during Premier Zhou's visit to China in a movie, which had both characteristics and exotic flavor. So he re-created the welcome song, and on the basis of retaining the charm of Guangdong music, he appropriately added elements of foreign music such as the United States and Southeast Asia.
On the plane back to Shenyang from the Canton Fair, thunder and rain saw a spectacular scene outside the window: a rainbow crossed the sky and crossed the north and south. "It's so beautiful! At this moment, I can't help thinking of the ancient Silk Road that runs through the east and west. Shenyang is so far away from Guangzhou that air traffic is only half a day. The Silk Road is farther, and with economic exchanges, it will become farther. Isn't this the charm of reform and opening up? With this in mind, I firmly believe that Yu Wen must fill in the lyrics of this song, and he will certainly understand my intention. "
"This lyric is so well written."
About a week later, Liu Wenyu wrote the lyrics. Flower city, friends, parties, sincerity-the elements in the song are skillfully grasped and magically integrated by the lyricist.
"This lyric is so well written. New friends and old friends are honest with each other, and friendship is always there. Friends, friends, let's join hands ... The new Silk Road connects the four seas. "Speaking of which, Lei Yu couldn't help singing." Words like' be honest with each other' were rare at that time. The word "sincerity" embodies the sincerity of the people of China, which is a sincere attitude; It shows the honesty and confidence of China people. It shows sincerity and earnestly hopes that foreign guests will come to open China; It embodies sincerity, which is the unique enthusiasm of China people. "
Lei Yusheng believes that Liu Wenyu's lyrics embody the cultural concept of China and sublimate the theme. At the same time, his poems also reflect the grand occasion of China's economic construction under the tide of reform and opening up. "Yu Wen's lyrics sublimate the theme and explain the development of China's diplomacy from ancient times to the present."
Speaking of Liu Wenyu, Lei Yusheng said: "He is not only an excellent poet, but also a famous playwright. He promoted China's opera creation with his unique passion and was called a great paving stone."
"The most admirable thing is that he has no complaints and is diligent in his creation. His works are full of love for the people and the times. He is a good son of the people. " Recalling the friendship with Yu Wen, Lei Yusheng sighed. "I called him two days ago and made an appointment to return to Shenyang from Guangzhou recently, go to my alma mater to attend the anniversary and visit him at the same time. Unexpectedly, this became a permanent regret ... "
Sail with friendship
Wu Yanze sings.
Sail full of friendship
Look at the sea to meet the sunrise, Wan Li golden light.
People's sailors strut and ride the wind and waves.
The five-star red flag fluttered in the wind.
Wherever I go,
I keep in mind my motherland's entrustment to you.
Even if the wind blows, the road to friendship is unstoppable.
Let the dark clouds roll and let the revolutionary ships pass through all directions.
Float over the rocks and listen to the waves singing all over the world.
Break through the fog and smile at the bright dawn of five continents.
ah ...
The ship sailed in Wan Li, and the east wind blew.
A bridge of friendship can be formed at the touch of a touch.
Revolutionary people are interrelated.
Friendship in combat is as deep as the ocean.
Two poems:
firefly
Although you only gave me a little light, it was enough to make me happy.
When I see your little light like a bean on my way home at night,
I know you're lighting my cigarette,
There is a kind of warmth to take me home, and there is a lamp for me.
I read a book today and looked into my mother's eyes.
When I am far away from home, thinking of you is like watching the stars all over the sky.
Everything is interdependent when it exists.
When the light disappears, even briefly,
This is also a dark age.
Even if someone gives you a ray of light on the road of life,
Enough to remember eternal life.
Firefly, thinking of you reminds me of the past,
Think about loss, think about sadness, think about warmth. ...
Life is singing.
-Fossils of birds
Always want to fly to spring,
Keep singing, keep turning,
Seeking and pursuing is hope,
This is an eternal belief.
Always want to fly to distant mountains,
Sing clear water and new green, embellish the world,
Tired wings ache,
Whether weeping blood will change the original intention,
Is to become an ancient fossil,
Flying wings don't converge ...
