-Interview with the famous lyricist Jiang Kairu.
"It was a spring in 1979. An old man drew a circle near the South China Sea in China, miraculously rose and built a golden mountain ..."
Jiang Kairu in Creation
With Dong Wenhua's euphemistic singing, the story of spring is like a spring breeze blowing all over China and into the hearts of every Chinese son and daughter. Those flashing words and beating notes vividly present the glorious course of reform and opening up and the people's unremitting pursuit of beautiful ideals. At the same time, they also showed Jiang Kairu, a weather-beaten lyricist of The Story of party member and Spring, his unswerving faith in the Party for decades.
Jiang Kairu's achievements in China music can be described as "brilliant". The work "The Story of Spring" and "Entering a New Era" won the Five One Project Award of the Propaganda Department of the CPC 1994, 1997 and the Wenhua Award of the Ministry of Culture. Almost everyone in the street can sing a few words of The Story of Spring, but if you ask them who Jiang Kairu is, I'm afraid few people can answer. Perhaps his works are too famous, or perhaps the singers Dong Wenhua and Zhang Ye are too dazzling. In this regard, Jiang Kairu showed a detached attitude. He said that music is the author's mental journey and can be widely sung, which is the best encouragement and recognition for the author. Perhaps it is his normal mind that makes his works look so different in today's impetuous music-it can not only impress the hearts of the public, but also withstand the changes of the times.
Writing a song is like an accumulation of life. The Story of Spring praises Deng Xiaoping's great achievements in reform and opening up, and also reflects Jiang Kairu's sincere heart to the Party.
-the story of spring.
Jiang Kairu was born in a feudal landlord family. He likes dancing and writing since he was a child, and he is called a "little scholar" locally. Most of his brothers and sisters live in Hongkong, Taiwan Province Province, the United States and other places. These complicated family relationships made him the object of criticism in every political movement after the founding of the People's Republic of China. In the heyday of 1958, he wore a "rightist" hat and went to the Great Northern Wilderness for labor reform. Later, in the "four clean-ups" and "Cultural Revolution" movements, he was criticized as "ghostly" and "ghostly". However, political persecution did not obliterate his pursuit of ideals and love for life, nor did it passivate his sharp writing style. On the contrary, during this period, he persisted in creating a large number of novels, quyi and dramas, and this catastrophe became a valuable asset in his life.
The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, like a spring thunder, awakened the inside and outside of the Great Wall, and the spring breeze warmed the banks of the great river, and the haze that had enveloped China for decades was blown away by the spring breeze. 1979 is a turning point in the fate of the motherland and his personal destiny. A drop of spring dew has quietly moistened his dry heart, and he is determined to write spring poems for the party and the people at this moment of spring. In April this year, he went to Hong Kong to visit relatives with decades of missing his loved ones. During his stay in Hong Kong, he mentioned the word "spring" more than 40 times in his diary. He felt that the spring of his life had begun slowly, and his eyes were full of vitality. It's time to show his strength. He had a four-month home leave, but he stayed in Hong Kong for 50 days before coming back. Many people think he is stupid, but he says, "I have experienced all sports since the founding of the People's Republic of China. What am I afraid of?" I have been looking forward to the arrival of spring for decades. Now that spring has come, how can I not come back? Do come back! "Under the repeated detention of relatives, he resolutely gave up the opportunity to settle in Hong Kong and returned to the mainland to join the reform and opening up of the motherland. Now it turns out that he was right to come back. If he doesn't come back, he can't feel the earth-shaking changes in the motherland and write the story of spring.
1992, Deng Xiaoping, the master of spring, made a famous speech during his southern tour. Since then, the spring tide in China has been rolling, showing colorful scenes everywhere. In order to follow in the footsteps of great men and dig up the story of spring, Jiang Kairu came to Shenzhen alone to find inspiration for music creation, which was realized in the complicated market economy. 1992 1992 At the end of February, he wrote The Story of Spring with infinite reverence for Deng Xiaoping, the chief architect of reform and opening up.
Singing the story of spring, you will feel that a kind elder is gently telling us the story of miracle spring, which sounds very kind. This song did not praise Deng Xiaoping greatly, but focused on the earth-shaking changes brought by his reform and opening-up policy to China: "The mythical rise of the city and the miraculous rise of Jinshan ……" It profoundly described the improvement of material life, the great changes in spiritual life and ideology brought by Deng Xiaoping's reform and opening-up policy to the people of China.
