In the office of the dean of the composition department of the Central Conservatory of Music, Director Tang happily listened to Li Yange talk about his recent experience of performing in New York, USA.

Especially when Li Yange mentioned participating in the National Day Gala performance in the embassy, Director Tang slapped the table and said excitedly: "Yange, you have done a good job in this matter, I saw it on the news broadcast the day before yesterday, and the leaders of the Ministry of Education have sent documents, wanting us to contact you as soon as possible." ”

"Contact me for what?" Li Yange looked at Director Tang with a little puzzlement, what are the people from the Ministry of Education looking for themselves?

"Didn't you read today's paper?"

"Is something wrong?"

"It's a good thing for you!" Director Tang hurriedly opened the drawer, rummaged through it, took out today's "Xinhua Daily", spread it out and put it on the table, and said: "You see, today's Xinhua Daily highly praised the song "Red Flag Fluttering" that you wrote when you were in the United States, and also said that the lyrics of this song are very good, and it can be used as an after-school model for primary school students. ”

After-class sample essays?

Li Yange was stunned and picked up the newspaper and quickly scanned this article, the content of which was roughly about how a large number of local Chinese and overseas Chinese raised funds for the cause of the Asian Games in the motherland at the National Day Gala held by the embassy in the United States.

At the same time, he also praised Comrade Li Yange, an outstanding young Chinese composer, for his song "Red Flag Fluttering" composed at the party, which not only wrote the lyrics and songs well, but also greatly narrowed the close ties between the motherland and overseas Chinese.

"You don't really want to use this song as an after-school model text, do you?" After reading the article, Li Yange looked at Director Tang in surprise, if this can be used as an after-class model article, it will be amazing.

"I don't know about this, anyway, the people from the Ministry of Education hope that my side can contact you as soon as possible."

"Okay, so how do I contact them?"

"You don't need to contact me, I'll call later, and they'll send someone to find you when the time comes."

After Director Tang finished saying this, he took out a few pieces of paper from the drawer, handed them over, and said, "By the way, you have written your name on these applications." ”

"Application for joining the party? Director, this is what you arranged? Seeing the five big characters on the first page, Li Yange raised his head in surprise, he hadn't mentioned it.

"The school arranged it, you are also a junior, the school has some places to join the party, you haven't come back at that time, I will help you submit it, and now you just need to sign your name."

Director Tang pointed to the back of a few pieces of paper and said, "By the way, there are also applications from the Beijing Musicians Association and the Chinese Musicians Association, you can just write your name." ”

Hearing this, Li Yange hurriedly flipped through the back of a few pieces of paper, it was really the application of the Music Association, and after a few glances, he did not hesitate and signed his name directly on it.

"Here you are Director Tang."

handed it back to Director Tang, and when Li Yange thought it was nothing, he saw Director Tang take out a cardboard box, "This is the certificate awarded to you by the school, you didn't come to the freshman conference, so I will put it away for you first." ”

"All of these?" Looking at the box full of awards, Li Yange's head exploded, why are there so many awards.

Director Tang shook his head: "Not only from the school, but also from the city, as well as some encouragement certificates from the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Culture. ”

As the first person in China to win the Oscar for Best Composition, Li Yange has won many foreign awards one after another, and has held a concert at the Lincoln Center for the Arts in the United States.

At this time, although he is young, he is also registered in the eyes of some people, just like Zhang Yimou, who has just won the Berlin Prize, and has become a representative figure of contemporary youth.

Not to mention sending some encouraging certificates, if Li Yange hadn't spent much time in school this year, I'm afraid that the three good student awards in the school and the city, as well as some other awards, would fall on his head.

But despite this, Li Yange has won countless awards of various awards, and the cardboard boxes are densely packed, not to mention twenty or thirty sheets.

"Okay, then I'll take it back and hang it." Looking at so many awards, Li Yange couldn't cry or laugh, but he was still very happy in his heart, after all, these were not the kind of awards issued to elementary school students.

The worst of them are the certificates issued by the first-class music academy in China, and the highest is the China Outstanding Youth Award issued by the Ministry of Culture.

Speaking of this award, there is also a story, in March, when Li Yange won the Oscar and became famous in China, the leaders of the Ministry of Culture were naturally too happy.

After all, this is the first step for domestic music talents to go abroad, and it should be rewarded, but considering Li Yange's age, many rewards are not convenient.

Later, a young leader said that he would get a youth award to commend the outstanding young people who won glory for the country, so he got an outstanding youth award and sent it to Li Yange, as well as Zhang Yimou, who won the Berlin Award.

At the same time, because of the award, the Ministry of Culture has a bold idea, that is, to make a "National Top Ten Outstanding Youths" to select outstanding young talents in China, and at the same time, it can be regarded as giving certain encouragement and commendation.

It's just that this kind of nationwide award is not something that can be done by the Ministry of Culture in a word, but the concept of "Ten Outstanding Youths" has been recognized by the superior leaders.

It was decided to hand over the program to the All-China Youth Federation, which was jointly undertaken by the Youth Development Fund and dozens of major news units, including the People's Daily and CCTV.

It aims to recommend young talents, publicize outstanding young people, and set a model for the times.

……

After coming out of school, Li Yange went home, accompanied Cheng Shaojun for lunch, and went to Times Records with her.

"So many awards?" Seeing the dense awards in the cardboard box brought by Li Yange, Liang Leshu was stunned at first, and then rejoiced, it seemed that she had finally made the honor room full.

"Well, the certificate is a bit much, so you can put it in the company and hang it." Li Yange didn't want to post these awards at home, on the one hand, there were too many awards, and secondly, it was better to keep them in the company.

"Uh-huh, I'll have someone do it later." Liang Leshu put away the cardboard box, took out a document and handed it to Li Yange, "This is Cui Jian, the Baojia Street Band, and your album sales." ”

"How's it selling?" Li Yange asked as he took the document.

"The highest sales are Cui Jian, his "Rock on the New Long March" sold 500,000 copies in just two months, and if nothing else, it will be able to break one million copies by the end of the year."

"As for the Baojia Street Band, because the release date is a little shorter, only about 50 days, it has sold more than 400,000 copies."

"As for Manager Li, your album was only released last month, and it has sold a total of about 260,000 copies so far."

As soon as he heard that his album had sold 260,000 copies, Li Yange nodded with satisfaction, he was already very content to sell so much in a month, after all, it was an album of pure instrumental performance, and there were not many people who chose to buy it.

After chatting for a while about the company's business situation in the past month or so, Liang Leshu suddenly said: "By the way, Manager Li, I went to Guangzhou last month and found a good seedling there. ”

"Oh? Is it a band or a singer? ”

"Singer, a female singer, named Yang Gangli, 17 years old this year is still a student of Nanchang Normal School, although she is not a professional vocal musician, but her voice is very recognizable, our company currently lacks a female singer who can stand up, so I signed her to prepare for good training."
