Chapter 115: A Visit to North Korea (Part II)

The Yanyang Labor Theater is a magnificent building, with noble and elegant flowers and pillars. The transparent double frameless glass doors give you the feeling of stepping into a palace of art. The cornice of the gate is equipped with white marble carvings. On the top is the neon sign of the Korean "Labor Theater", which is one of the places in Pyongyang where electricity is not restricted, and the flashing neon lights are particularly eye-catching when the lights are turned on every night.

Kim Jung-jung and a group of young actors stood in the far corner of the backstage, chirping about the upcoming performance, and she looked up at the wall clock from time to time. Nervous and excited, she bent down. Pull up the light gauze trousers of the red gauze pants, she likes this outfit, the red light gauze is soft and smooth, wear it and look in the mirror, just like the dragon girl under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the myths and legends of neighboring countries, as beautiful as you want.

Kim Jung-jung is only thirteen years old, but she is already an old actor of the military and political song and dance troupe, and she is a native of Sinuiju. When he was in kindergarten, he was selected by the Sinuiju Garrison Song and Dance Troupe, and this is a great honor for ordinary families in North Korea, and the ancestors of Kim Jung-jeong's family have not produced party members and cadres for three generations, and Kim Jung-jeong can join the army, which is a major event worthy of being recorded in the history of family development by Damite for their entire big family.

Last year, Jin Zhenzhen joined the People's Army Song and Dance Troupe, and when the notice was handed over to her parents, her father choked up with excitement. Her mother held her hand again and again, and Ding told her not to be proud. To strive for greater progress, if you are fortunate enough to perform for the leaders of the party and the state, you must perform well. Glory for your hometown.

Kim Jung-jung knew that when the special zone was established in Sinuiju and the population review began, her family did not pass the examination and was moved back to the mainland, which made her father, grandfather, uncles and uncles very ashamed, and the whole family felt that they could not raise their heads, because they were moved back to the mainland, indicating that their loyalty to the supreme leader was questioned.

Now, the family's hopes are pinned on her.

And tonight, it is the first time that Kim Jung-jung has performed for the Supreme Leader, and the Supreme Leader is also watching the performance with the grandson and son of the great leader from neighboring countries, the close comrade-in-arms of the deceased great leader, Grandpa Tang. Tang Yi, secretary of the Liaodong Provincial Party Committee on the border with North Korea. Listening to the people in the group, Secretary Tang may be the future successor of their country. He is not yet forty years old, and he has already reached a very terrifying place in the political sequence of neighboring countries, which is a phenomenon that has never been seen in these years, whether it is a republic or his own country.

Jin Zhenzhen also read the information of Secretary Tang promoted on TV, and saw that Secretary Tang led the people of Liaodong to vigorously grasp production and engage in collectivized agriculture, Jin Zhenzhen felt that he was very powerful, and it would be good if her country could have such a capable cadre as Secretary Tang to solve problems for the supreme leader.

Jin Zhenzhen also took out her ideas and discussed them with the young actors when she was learning the theme idea, and the political commissar who guided them to study in the troupe didn't say anything, but after finishing her study, she talked to her privately and told her not to talk about Secretary Tang indiscriminately, if it was spread out, it would have a very bad political impact, and she nagged a lot, probably because Jin Zhenzhen was young and felt that she didn't understand much. A lot of words are not too taboo, talking about the grim situation faced by some countries, how the powerful neighbor has failed to live up to the trust of his country again and again, etc., and said that if Secretary Tang is really pro-Korean, then in the future, when the supreme leader or the third-generation leader needs Secretary Tang's help, communication will be much better, and so on.

Jin Zhenzhen really didn't understand the words of the political commissar, but she could hear that it seemed that Secretary Tang's status was very high, even to the point that he could be compared with the supreme leader, and the supreme leader still needed his help? This undoubtedly subverts Kim Jung-jeong's cognition, but in any case, Kim Jung-jeong also realizes that the eastern neighbor who is not mentioned much in the book seems to be much stronger than her own country, and it is a very awe-inspiring pair

And a few days ago, Kim Jung-jung felt this even more strongly when she went to Sinuiju to visit the leaders and friends of the former garrison song and dance troupe.

For more than a month, the People's Army Song and Dance Troupe has been rehearsing this play "Sha Jialian" day and night, and it was not until the Supreme Leader's birthday a few days ago that everyone was given a two-day holiday. Kim Jung-jung went home to have a look, and at the behest of her parents, she went to the Sinuiju Special Zone to visit the leaders of the garrison song and dance troupe that had cultivated her talents.

Residents of the interior of the DPRK are required to apply for permits to go to the SAR, and the examination of permits is extremely strict, so Kim Jung-jung took the car of Deputy Head Li of the People's Army Song and Dance Troupe, and the road was unimpeded.

Coinciding with the Supreme Leader's birthday and the Lunar New Year, many old friends came to the Sinuiju Garrison Song and Dance Troupe. Some of the retired members of the regiment have become businessmen, and some have become cadres, but there is no doubt that the center of everyone is Park Yuna's sister from the Republic.

Kim Jung-jeong admired Park Yuna's sister very much when she was in the Sinuiju Song and Dance Troupe, and at that time, in the photos hanging in the training hall of the garrison song and dance troupe, almost every picture had Park Yuna's sister, and Sister Yuna's sister was not only beautiful, but also very beautiful in dancing, I heard that her singing was also very beautiful, and the head of the regiment almost always mentioned Sister Yuna when she practiced in the past. Tell some stories about Sister Yuna's hard work, and say that you should learn from her. And after Kim Jung-jung joined the group, her nickname at the beginning was Xiao Yun'er".

But then I don't know why, those photos were taken down, and the head of the troupe didn't mention the name of Yun'er's sister anymore, it seems that some people were transferred out of the song and dance troupe because of talking about Yun'er's sister, and Yun'er's sister's name seems to have been gradually forgotten by everyone. Kim Jung-jung doesn't understand these things, but she can't forget the huge photo of Yuna's sister showing off her beautiful dance.

And this time, Kim Jung-jung finally met Yuna's sister herself, but what's going on? How is Sister Yuna Chinese? But it seems that everyone didn't pay attention to this, and when talking to Sister Yun'er, everyone brought a little respect and politeness. Including the first vice chairman of the Sinuiju People's Armed Forces Committee, Commander Li Guangwu of the Worm Army, he was also polite when he talked to Sister Yuna, you must know that Commander Li is a legendary figure, Li Shuai's grandson, in the past, when he mentioned this name, it felt so unattainable.

Kim Jung-jung finally knew why Chairman Lee Kwang-mo, who had a lot of opportunities for this gathering, personally came to invite everyone to lunch, and it turned out that it was just to entertain Sister Yuna.

Sister Yoona did not disappoint Kim Jung-jeong. She is much more beautiful than in the photo, and her voice is so beautiful that you want to listen to her all the time.

Sister Yuna bought a lot of gifts and distributed them to everyone. It's all made in the Republic, it looks like everyone's expressions are very envious, and Jin Zhenzhen also got a bottle of shower gel, but it's fragrant, and she has always been reluctant to use it.

What made Zhenzhen happy was that someone had raised her power in the end, Xiao Yidong'er, nicknamed "Jin Zhenzhen, who was not very old, could also see that the sister who said this was obviously to please Sister Yun'er.

At that time, Yun'er's sister touched her head with a smile. Said: "The guy is so cute, and he will definitely be prettier than me when he grows up."

Although some people said at the time that although Jung-jeong was beautiful, she was not as clean as Miss Park's beauty, and her eyes were too charming, and she grew up to be suitable for roles such as the housewife and the fox spirit. Jin Zhenzhen also listened to the discussion of the people in the group, saying that she was charming at a young age and had a pair of peach blossom eyes. It's certainly not a good thing to grow up. In the past, she would always secretly cry when she heard these discussions, but this time she didn't feel uncomfortable, and she was happier than anything else to see Sister Yun'er.

The bell of the "Ding Ling Bell" preparatory bell interrupted Jin Zhenzhen's thinking, and she hurriedly ran to the middle of the small group to prepare, although their roles were only waving blue ribbons to play the "lake" and the appearance time was only a few minutes, but the young actors were very nervous, the longer the rehearsal, the greater their pressure, and the leaders of the group held a meeting at the end of three days to reiterate the importance of this performance. These little girls are so young, but they are really under too much pressure on their shoulders.

The deputy head of the song and dance troupe, Li, had a serious expression and asked the actors to get ready, but his eyes seemed to inadvertently float from Jin Zhenzhen's body, the little girl's figure had just developed, but it was already extremely attractive, her skin was as smooth as milk, white and tender as if she could wring out water, and a pair of snow-white little feet were practicing dance steps. Sometimes he raised a graceful arc, sometimes jumped a few steps, Deputy Head Li stared at it a few times, coughed dryly, and then looked away.

Sitting next to the supreme leader of North Korea, Tang Yi smiled and applauded the superb performance of the artists on stage.

The supreme leader is old, and Tang Yi can feel the sluggishness of his movements when shaking hands with Tang Yi, but this twilight old man is a god in the minds of thousands of North Korean people, and he did not use a lot of force when shaking hands with Tang Yi, but Tang Yi still seems to be able to feel the powerful and suffocating iron fist of the old man.

What about this old man, what was he thinking when he shook hands with Tang Yi?

The old man didn't talk much, just like the great man of the republic in his twilight years, as deep as the boundless ocean, very complex ideas, maybe expressed in a few simple words, it was every word he said, Tang Yi listened very carefully.

The old man smiled and watched the performance on stage. He spit out a few words vaguely, and the dull and expressionless Fu Ze beside him smiled this time, as if it had also infected the old man's emotions, and said to Tang Yi with a smile: "The chairman said that if there is a chance, he wants to sing a few words of Huangmei Opera with you." ”

Tang Yi nodded with a smile and said, "I also hope to have this catty." Authority. ”

The old man listened to Zhu Ze's Zhuan Ze, but he didn't speak for a long time, as if he had forgotten the conversation with Tang Yi just now. After a long time, he suddenly spat out a few more words.

Perhaps, to the realm of the old man's thoughts. Thinking activities are no longer accessible to ordinary people, are they?

But Tang Yi could feel that the old man should be very satisfied when he heard his answer, because his eyebrows were raised, which was usually a facial expression that only existed in a satisfied state.

"The leader asks, what do you think about the U.S. troops stationed in South Korea?" The translator strung together the old man's simple words into a complete speech.

Tang Yi said with a smile: "In the words of our sages, the benevolent are not worried, the knowers are not confused, and the brave are not afraid." ”

This time, I didn't wait for Fu Ze to come closer to his ear and say. The old man quickly turned around, and there was a lot of incomprehensible meaning in his eyes at that moment.

Tang Yi smiled and looked at the old man very calmly. In the same simple sentence, in fact, he wants to express a lot of content, including praise for the DPRK, as well as exhortation, and some obscure expressions of his own views.

Finally, it was Kim Jung-jeong's turn to appear, and in the cheerful music, she and a group of beautiful girls danced beautifully and won bursts of applause.

At a glance, Kim Jung-jung saw the supreme leader clapping softly at the tea table surrounded by flowers in the front row. Similarly, the delicate man sitting next to the supreme leader was also smiling and applauding, this handsome man sat very indifferently, the supreme leader's mountain-like figure could not hide the man's light, at a glance, you can clearly see these two people, and the others seem to not exist at this moment.

Kim Jung-jeong's heart was beating violently, her mind was dizzy, and her hands and feet seemed to no longer listen to her command, but just reflexively danced the dance that had been practiced thousands of times.

The chairman said that the People's Army is a well-trained team that dares to fight tough battles After the old man whispered a few words, he said to Tang Yi very quickly.

Tang Yi nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "People are still the most important factor in war, going to war and plotting, many times, war is not the best choice Tang Yi can feel that the atmosphere of the meeting created by the old man is very relaxed, and the topic is becoming more and more casual, thinking that this is also the consideration of the old man to arrange to watch the song and dance performance."

"What do you think about the development of the Sinuiju Special Zone?" The old man's mind was still jumping very much. The conversation soon turned to Sinuiju.

Tang Yi said with a smile: "It's always right to try some different development routes, Sinuiju is developing very well, and we have also benefited a lot from Liaodong, if" Before the words were finished, a little girl suddenly exclaimed on the stage, and when she landed in mid-air, she stumbled and slipped on the stage.

Tang Yi paused for a moment, then continued: "If I have to evaluate, it seems that I can't get an objective answer, because from the perspective of the development of Liaodong, I really hope that Sinuiju will be more open. small

The old man nodded slightly, but his eyes glanced at the stage.

Kim Jung-jung felt like the sky was about to fall. Slipping and falling on the stage in front of the Supreme Leader and the most honored guests, at that moment, she felt that it was better to let her die.

After a while, she hurriedly endured the sharp pain in her ankle and began to dance to the music again, and when they left the stage, the eyes of her friends made her a little frightened. She knew that not only these partners, but the entire show had turned into a failed show because of her mistakes, and that she had smeared the face of the song and dance troupe and the People's Army, and that this mistake could not be made up for in any way.

Sitting on the ground in the corner of the backstage lounge, Jin Zhenzhen rubbed her ankles that were still aching, tears couldn't stop falling, she wiped away her tears vigorously, telling herself not to cry, don't cry, the People's Army soldiers shouldn't cry nose x Xiao S said ち屋ち手ち But she felt uncomfortable in her heart, and the tears flowed uncontrollably, how to make but "six."

"Oh, Zhenzhen, you know? When you fell, the chairman just said to Secretary Tang. Say that our People's Army is a force that can fight" A little friend came to Kim Zhenzhen's side and looked at her with some pity, but they were still young. I don't know how to comfort people, but what I say makes Kim Jung-jung even more uncomfortable.

Jin Zhenzhen also saw Deputy Head Li staring at her from afar, it was so terrifying, she never knew that Deputy Head Li was so frightening.

Jin Zhenzhen didn't know how she spent the remaining half an hour, and when the choreographer and director of the play came over with a cold face and said: "The chairman and Secretary Tang want to express their condolences to all the members of the performance", Jin Zhenzhen's mind went blank and stood up blankly. Follow the choreographer to the front desk.

No one talked to her, everyone walked out silently, and the amiable big brothers and sisters on weekdays had frost on their faces, and even the best partner with Jin Zhenzhen didn't dare to approach her at this time, walking alone at the end of the line. Kim Jung-jung wiped away her tears because she was a brave KPA fighter and she didn't cry.

Finally, at the front desk, Kim Jung-jeong saw the supreme leader and the handsome man with a peaceful face again. The performers were neatly arranged, and the chairman and Secretary Tang who came over shook hands with them one by one.

When shaking hands with the Supreme Leader, Kim Jung-jung did not cry. KPA fighters have to take responsibility for their mistakes, and crying is only a sign of weakness.

Finally, the delicate man's warm and generous hand grasped her little hand, glanced at her, the man's eyes were a little surprised, and he turned back to the person next to him and smiled: "This little guy, why don't you cry your nose?" ”

Jin Zhenzhen puffed up her small chest and said in a small but crisp voice: "Report to the chief, the soldiers of the People's Army will not cry when they lose the battle!" "She has been acting in Chinese plays and has learned Chinese very well since she was a child.

Tang Yi laughed, looked at this interesting little guy, nodded slightly, turned his head to the translator and said: The little soldier is very strong, this performance is good, a little mistake, let me see the spirit of the People's Army. ”

Tang Yi patted Jin Zhenzhen's hand and said with a smile: "Little guy, next time I come, I will watch you perform." Don't fall again! KPA fighters don't make the same mistake twice, do they? ”

Looking at the friendly eyes of the beautiful man, feeling his warm big hands, and listening to his gentle words, Jin Zhenzhen's heart was inexplicably sour, and the tears that she had been holding back suddenly poured into her eyes, and she said in a crisp voice: "Yes" When the beautiful man let go of her little hand, Jin Zhenzhen was even a little reluctant.

Silently watching the handsome man and the supreme leader leave surrounded by many cadres and guards, Kim Jung-jeong's tears finally couldn't help falling.

Getting up from the soft bed in the morning, Tang Yi changed into a black Tang suit, and took a hot bath, the ancient officials had to bathe when they faced the saint to show their solemnity, Tang Yi did not go to face the saint, he wanted to go to another more sacred place.

A cemetery of the martyrs of the People's Volunteers of the Republic on the outskirts of Pyongyang.

Fifty years ago, with extremely inferior equipment, it competed with the United Nations forces composed of the entire Western world. The loyalty and courage of these martyrs can be seen day by day.

Regardless of how history can be commented on thousands of years later, this singing and weeping war is the beginning of modern China's ability to stand tall in front of the world powers.

Tang Yi didn't eat breakfast, and before going out, Li Wang whispered: "I have communicated with Bai Changzhi." There should be no problem. ”

Li Gang was talking about Jin Zhenzhen, and Tang Yi suddenly received a call from Yun'er in the middle of last night. At that time, Tang Yi had already fallen asleep in a hazy way. The mobile phone rang at an inopportune time, and Tang Yi was surprised when he saw that it was Yun'er's number, after all, it was abroad, although his and Hongyan's private calls were all satellite signals and were also encrypted, but with Yun'er's character, he would not call so lightly, let alone in the middle of the night.

Thinking that Xiao Yun'er must have something to ask for herself, Tang Yi suddenly became energetic, no matter how unfathomable she is in front of outsiders, in the face of several celebrities, Tang Yi's vanity and bad taste still occasionally pop up. Especially the well-behaved and obedient Yuna. That's a character who won't ask for anything for 10,000 years. It's still very satisfying to be able to do things for Yun'er.

Sure enough, Yun'er said timidly: "Chief." Me, I have something I want you to help me with. ”

Tang Yi smiled: "Say, what does Xiao Yun'er want to do?" I'll definitely help you get it done. Is there no money to spend? "It's still fun to tease Yoona.

"No, no, I have more than 10 million." Yun'er told her net worth very honestly, which made Tang Yi feel embarrassed for a while. Yun'er really doesn't look like a million-dollar rich woman.

"Yes, it's Kim Jung-jeong, I want you to help her." Yuna's voice is getting lower and lower, and the last thing she likes is to cause trouble for the chief.

Tang Yi was slightly stunned: "Jin Zhenzhen? ”

"That's it, it's the little girl who fell when I was performing for you and the chairman today, she, she's my junior, I just heard that something happened to her."

Tang Yi sighed, it turned out to be the little guy. Tang Yi also knew that although he said a few words to excuse the little guy at that time, he was afraid that the final result of the little guy would not be too good, but after all, it was someone else's business, and he could only do this. I thought about it before I went to bed last night, after all, I bumped into it, how can I help her, I should still do it.

"Okay." Tang Yi laughed and said, "I'll find a way." ”

"You, you're not embarrassed, are you?" Yun'er was very embarrassed, and she was afraid that the chief would be embarrassed, as for the matter. In Yun'er's heart, as long as the chief wants to do something, there is nothing that cannot be done, even to the supreme leader. Yuna has never been so convinced.

"Don't be embarrassed, I wanted to help her." Tang Yi said with a smile.

"Ah, I'll just say the chief is the best guy." Yuna was very happy and laughed a few times, very sweet.

Tang Yi was embarrassed for a while, to be honest, if it weren't for Yun'er's catty and phone call, it was difficult to say whether Tang Yi would really care about this matter in the end, but Yun'er's blank paper would always make him feel something. Don't take kindness as small, this is also a realm of self-cultivation.

"Chief, I saw you and the chairman on TV, you are handsome!" Yun'er was very excited, and she dared to be naughty to Tang Yi.

Tang Yi smiled slightly and did not speak. wW
