1997 In May, when Jiang Kairu heard Comrade Jiang Zemin's speech on TV, his creative inspiration was triggered again.
"Comrade Jiang Zemin spoke a word, holding high the great banner of Deng Xiaoping Theory and further deepening the reform and opening up, and I was particularly moved. Hearing this sentence, I think our reform and opening up will continue. China people used to be afraid of poverty. After the reform and opening up, they became rich, and they were particularly worried about whether they would change back. This is great and will not change. " Jiang Kairu wrote a new song in one breath that night.
"We stood up and sang Dongfanghong as the master, and we told the story of the spring when reform and opening up became rich ..."
This song was originally called "China is very lucky", and Jiang Kairu said, "I think people in China are very lucky. Good days let us catch up and move from spring to the foreseeable future step by step. "
Later, the Shenzhen Municipal Committee collected songs for the 15th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and the Luohu District Federation of Literary and Art Circles recommended this song "Lucky China", which was renamed "Entering a New Era" after revision.
