New Year's Day, 1984, Shenyang City, Northeast China. A young man who had just passed his prime threw a postcard into a mailbox by the side of the road. The handwriting on the card was clear, totaling less than 200 words, like a poem, more like a piece of lyrics. In mid-March of that year, the young man was invited to CCTV. It turned out that his postcard works to participate in the "talk about the Yangtze River" of the collection of lyrics, from 4583 pieces of work stood out, was selected, but at that time he personally know nothing about it. 24 evening, in the CCTV studio, "talk about the Yangtze River" special concert hosts Chen Duoduo and Hong Yun went to the front of the stage, said mysteriously: "you can tell everyone, now! the lyricist of the theme song is in the studio, right among you. However, up to this moment, he himself is still in the dark, not knowing that he has been selected!" Chen Duo and Hong Yun walked unhurriedly toward the audience amidst the eager gazes of the crowd. They stopped in front of a young man in military uniform and said, "The lyricist is this young soldier - Comrade Hu Hongwei! Do introduce yourself!" In an instant, cameras, recording microphones, and video cameras all came together. Hu Hongwei was obviously not at all mentally prepared, and his face turned red. Just a moment ago, he had thought that this time the TV station had invited him to come to show off. He even guessed that the winner of the award should be a certain famous artist, or a certain person who lived by the Yangtze River. He said coyly, "I'm a songwriter from the Song and Dance Troupe of the Shenyang Military Region." Hong Yun laughed and passed the microphone to his mouth, "Comrade Hu Hongwei, surely everyone wants to know, what are some of your feelings at this moment?" "I'm not much prepared for this, it came out of the blue heh. My current mood, let's make an analogy, like a small stream that has just come out of the valley to the big river. The big river here does not mean anything else, that is, the old-timers and young peers here, as well as the millions of viewers who are sitting in front of the TV and watching the party with us at the moment." Hu Hongwei said. Just a day later, with the "you come from the ancient times, the giant wave cleansing the dust ...... We praise the Yangtze River - you are an infinite source. We are attached to the Yangtze River - you have a mother's feelings ......" moving song, Hu Hongwei's name is also known to millions of people. Hu Hongwei's work in this collection of activities won the best creative award. Some industry insiders have said, in accordance with the usual order of song creation, are the first to write the words and then composed, and this time it is just the opposite, the creation of the difficulty is quite large.
