Chapter 36: A Blockbuster (First Update, Ask for Collection)
Zheng Yi didn't know who he had offended, let alone that he would be plotted, he found Deputy Director Shao, who led the team, to ask for instructions, and after learning that lunch could be solved by himself, he immediately returned to the brothers to report the news, and then led the team to the nearest restaurant for lunch.

Due to the hot weather, the performance scheduled to start at half past two in the afternoon was postponed to four o'clock in the afternoon, and most of the energetic teachers and students of the Whampoa Military Academy and members of major colleges and universities participated in propaganda activities such as speeches and leaflets.
What Zheng Yi did not expect was that the headquarters of the Whampoa Military Academy and the military and political departments of the base camp attached great importance to this large-scale political propaganda activity, and dozens of high-ranking officials, who were rarely seen in ordinary times, entered the People's Park after the luncheon, cordially expressed their condolences to the teachers and students of the military academy and the performance clubs of various units, inspected the construction of the stage, asked about the installation of audio equipment, and provided sufficient material support for the first large-scale joint performance.
Surrounded by President Chiang, Director Zhou, Deputy Director Shao, and more than 10 Chinese and foreign reporters, they cordially met with the members of the participating clubs of the Military Academy, inquired in detail about the two-act drama to be performed by the Blood Flower Drama Society, and encouraged the teachers and students of the various academies and universities to have more exchanges with the teachers and students of the Huangpu Military Academy and learn from each other, so as to establish a lofty image of the military government as being close to the people and serving the people, and to expand the influence of the revolutionary army.
In order to ensure the success of this joint performance of great significance, 2,000 Whampoa students with strict military discipline took on the important task of security inside and outside the park, and Wu Tiecheng's guard army also dispatched 5,000 military and police to maintain law and order in the city.
At 3:30 p.m., the members of the Whampoa Military Academy Soldiers' Choir, who had been missing for three hours, left the cool and comfortable hotel and quietly returned to the shade behind the stage.
Because Zheng Yi rushed to the People's Park after arranging for the choir members to stay in the hotel, and participated in the inspection activities of the party-state dignitaries throughout the whole process, he had taken the initiative to explain to President Jiang and Deputy Director Shao, so he did not receive any criticism, but aroused the envy and jealousy of many people.
As the time of the performance approached, guests from all walks of life in and outside the city of Guangzhou arrived, and seats for 3,000 people to watch the performance were neatly arranged in front of the big stage full of colorful flags.
On the stage, the staff from the Propaganda Department of the base camp and the city government nervously adjusted the sound equipment, and the guards and soldiers and many teachers and students in the audience had never seen so many high-end speakers and microphones erected upright, and they were amazed with relish, and the members of the Women's Normal Performance Troupe, the Municipal Government Art Troupe, and the Guangzhou Literary and Art Troupe soon joined the ranks of onlookers, but there were no members of the "Whampoa Military Academy Soldiers Choir".
Under the shade of the trees in the northeast of the park, sixty-eight members, including Zheng Yi and Zhou Junruo, were leisurely drinking herbal tea and talking in a low voice.
Deputy Director Shao signaled Zheng Yi and the others not to be restrained, looked at the brothers who were talking in a low voice with teacups around and reminded: "Don't drink too much herbal tea, you can't hold back before the game." ”
Zheng Yi pointed to the sun in the west: "This ghost weather is too hot, and he sweats when he moves, so in order to keep water and protect his throat, he can only drink more water." ”
"Please rest assured, Director Shao, everything is in the plan and nothing will go wrong." The energetic Zhou Junruo spoke loudly.
Deputy Director Shao nodded, glanced at the brothers who were relaxed and chatting and laughing, and smiled at Zhou Junruo with satisfaction: "It can be seen that your preparations are very sufficient, you know the priorities, and the time arrangement is also very appropriate. ”
Zhou Junruo happily replied: "Our performance costumes are still in the baggage we carry, all the long riding boots, all the officer's belts, all the brand new military uniforms, and we will ask Director Shao to come and see it after the brothers change it later." ”
As soon as Deputy Director Shao heard this, he knew that the Quartermaster Department was harming the public and private interests, but he just smiled and didn't care: "Very good, on such a grand occasion today, we should show the demeanor that our revolutionary soldiers should have, haha!" Well, guests from all walks of life have arrived, and the show is about to begin, so get ready. ”
After sending off Deputy Director Shao and his entourage, Zhou Junruo immediately ordered the brothers to change into performance costumes, while Zheng Yi sat at the stone table and whispered with the director of the Political Department who sent the performance program: "Huh? How did you move us from 10th to 5th? ”
The officer of the Political Department drank half a cup of delicious herbal tea unhurriedly, and then put down the cup and replied helplessly: "There is no way, the representatives of the municipal government art troupe and the literary and artistic circles have seen so many party-state fathers and celebrities from all walks of life gathered together, all of them want to be in the limelight, all of them want to sing the finale, and all of them want to strive for the excellent program award, so we have to let our revolutionary soldiers carry forward the virtue of humility and courtesy." ”
Zhou Junruo came over and picked up the program list, and shook his head again and again after reading it: "The chief director is too level, the first program poetry recitation is just that, the next dance continues to recite poetry, and there are three soloists in the five programs in the finale, alas!" ”
"Be content, Xiao Zhou, among all fifteen programs, there are only two chorus programs, and the male and female vocal choruses of the Municipal Art Troupe have moved behind you, as long as you have a level, you can still be a hit. I'm optimistic about you, half an hour ago, Gu Mosan and Jiang Mingsan set up a bet to bet on who would get the top three in today's large-scale show, no one in the entire military academy is optimistic about your soldier choir, only I didn't blink an eye, and I made a hundred oceans to bet on you to enter the top three. ”
The political officer, who is also an instructor, is an old fritter who can speak well, and he has a good relationship with Zheng Yi, so he doesn't have so many scruples when he talks.
Zheng Yi was amused when he heard it: "Remember to invite me to drink if you win, but after a while, arrange for us to be as close to the backstage as possible, so that the place is not exposed to the sun." ”
"Don't worry, I can still do this."
Just after four o'clock, the breeze was gentle, the westerly sun and the lush greenery gradually lowered the temperature, and hundreds of party-state dignitaries, generals in the army, members of the Soviet advisory group, and guests from all walks of life made a grand appearance in the applause of the mountains and seas, and Yuguan came to the front of the stage to take their seats.
At this time, the whole park is already crowded with people, and it is extremely spectacular, and the large-scale performance that everyone has been waiting for is about to begin.
Zheng Yi and his brothers came to the back of the wide stage with musical instruments, and the two-meter-high curtain next door was the women's normal performance team, chirping and singing and singing endlessly, Zheng Yi's brothers who had not seen a woman for a long time suddenly scratched their heads and scratched their ears, and they were so angry that Zheng Yi had to scold his mother in a low voice: "Niang Xipi, if anyone is not interested in the horse, Lao Tzu will castrate him when he goes back." ”
The brothers listened to it funny and laughed, and the inside of the cloth enclosure quickly quieted down, and it didn't take long for a beautiful woman wearing a red and gold silk cheongsam to come over and look at Zheng Yi and his brothers angrily: "Who said foul language just now?" ”
The brothers all shut their mouths and looked at Zheng Yi together, Zheng Yi was quite annoyed in his heart, and his face was still calm: "You are late, the handsome guy who scolded the mother has just left." ”
The frost-faced beauty didn't know that Zheng Yi didn't want to cause trouble so she said this, she snorted unhappily and turned away, walked to the corner of the cloth waizi and suddenly turned around, feeling that Zheng Yi's voice seemed to be the same as the foul voice before, who knew that Zheng Yi didn't look at her at all, just lowered her head and chatted with Zhou Junruo, the beauty could only glare at Zheng Yi angrily, and when she returned to the cloth fence, there were immediately bursts of inquiry.
Thunderous applause suddenly rang out.
With the host's affectionate briefing, Zheng Yi heard the names of more than a dozen big figures such as Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, President Jiang, Xu Chongzhi, Li Jishen, and Russian consultants, and then introduced it for more than ten minutes, and the first collective poetry recitation program "War Youth" of the Military Academy Youth Army Association officially debuted.
In less than three minutes, warm applause rang out, and the second program was about to start, Zhou Junruo asked Zheng Yi in a low voice: "Can you hear the meaning of the poem recitation?" ”
Zheng Yi said with a smile: "People are reciting modern poems, which not only retains Xu Zhimo's Mandarin Duck and Butterfly style, but also shows the dedication of revolutionary soldiers in the war, and the difficulty is not ordinary...... Even if there are shortcomings, he can't hide his flaws, forgive him! ”
Zhou Junruo laughed out loud: "Oh, you guy is really mean, but it's very apt, haha!" ”
Zheng Yi began to talk to the brothers, laughing and scolding, and reminding them, subtly relieving the tension of the brothers.
After a circle, the fourth program has begun, the bearded chief director of the political department of the base camp and two staff members walked over quickly, asked who Zheng Yi was, and then arrogantly gave an order to Zheng Yi: "Temporarily change the plan, your three songs will be changed to two, okay, ready to play." ”
Zheng Yi and Zhou Junruo looked at each other, looked at the back of the bearded man leaving, shook their heads again and again, and after a little discussion, decided to cancel "Yan Nanfei".
At the end of the fourth program, the curtain fell, and the beautiful host of the political department of the base camp walked to the front of the curtain in all directions, and began to introduce the piece of paper in her hand: "The following performance is the Whampoa Military Academy Soldier Choir, this is a young collective, all members are from the Whampoa Military Academy Quartermaster Department......"
Behind the curtain, Zhou Junruo commanded the eight accompaniment brothers to set up musical instruments, and the experienced Zheng Yi put two microphones in front of the accompaniment brothers, and ordered a few words to start ordering the queue.
Wang Jingwei curiously asked Principal Jiang beside him: "It's very good, it's not easy to just look good...... What is the origin of this warrior choir? It can't be a hired professional, right? ”
Principal Jiang laughed in a low voice: "Where are there any professionals?" All of them are personnel of the quartermaster department of the military academy, a very nice group of young men. ”
Conductor Zhou Junruo endured his excitement, bowed to the audience, moved the microphone on the edge of the stage to the front of the chorus queue, took a few steps back, and bowed slightly to the beautiful host, who glanced at the note in his hand and announced loudly: "The first song, male chorus, "Unity is Strength". ”
Who knew that the microphone had just been removed by Zhou Junruo, and the beautiful host found out that the situation was wrong after the curtain was announced, and she looked around before she had no choice but to retreat, which immediately caused laughter from the audience.
I saw Zhou Junruo, who was dressed in military uniform, raised his hands, grabbed his fist with his left hand and shook it hard, the majestic snare drum suddenly sounded, and after striking a refreshing prelude, the neat and passionate and powerful singing voice sang loudly with the chorus of drums, piano, flute, pipa and erhu:
"Unity is strength, unity is strength, this strength is iron, this strength is steel ......"
The unique way of interpretation, the passionate singing full of male power, the perseverance of the lyrics like steel, and the accompaniment effect of the combination of Chinese and Western styles, all gathered together, like a vast and rushing torrent surging in all directions, instantly shocked everyone's heart.
Tens of thousands of spectators who were deeply resonant were thrilled after being stunned, and when they sang for the third time on stage, the excited soldiers in the audience couldn't help but stand up and respond enthusiastically, which soon infected the enthusiastic people from all walks of life, and the singing became more and more neat and louder.
Zheng Yi never dreamed that such a situation would happen, and he had an idea, and he glanced at Zhou Junruo, the commander who had already entered the state.
Zhou Junruo quickly understood, and before the end of the third pass, he gave orders to the brothers who accompanied the accompaniment with gestures and mouth shapes, and the eight brothers who accompanied the accompaniment returned to normal after a brief period of panic, repeating the magnificent rhythm again.
When the fifth time was sung, the audience stood up, let go of their throats and joined the chorus, a legend that had never been heard before was born, and a passionate song that had never been heard before was spread all over the world, not only shocking the souls of countless people, but also shocking Zheng Yi's heart.
Before that, he had never expected a song to bring such a thrilling effect.
