I have worked diligently in the troupe for more than ten years and have written many award-winning works before I finally got to my current position.
Looking at Wang Yueheng, who was surrounded by two leaders and enjoying great prestige, and hearing the envious and even somewhat admiring comments from the other members of the group, he felt a mix of emotions.
"Special recruitment? Second Lieutenant? Just based on a few songs?"
"Who knows if his song was ghostwritten? Or if he had some powerful connections that made the leader value it so much?"
"Are we, who have formal training and have dedicated more than a decade of our youth to the military, really inferior to a pop singer? This is an insult to our professionalism and military discipline!"
Zheng Junming, who had spent most of his time in the military, was filled with resentment and doubt.
Of course, he could only think these thoughts in his heart and would never dare to say them aloud in front of a major general.
At the same time, an idea began to sprout in his mind.
We absolutely cannot let a celebrity slip in so easily!
If they really do get specially recruited, you must find a way to talk to your old leader in the political department.
Someone must stand up and oppose this kind of rule-breaking behavior!
Wang Yueheng was naturally unaware of the turmoil in Deputy Regiment Commander Zheng's heart.
Under the arrangement of Major General Tang Zhongru, Head of the Regiment Li Zhenbang, and Teacher Han Hong, he was quickly introduced into the rehearsal sequence.
The first song we need to practice together is the newly created "Ode to the Motherland".
"Next, let's invite Comrade Wang Yueheng to lead us in learning this brand new song!"
After a brief introduction of the preparations by troupe leader Li Zhenbang, the on-site rehearsal officially began.
"This song doesn't need too many techniques; what it needs is heartfelt pride and a powerful momentum."
"Imagine our national flag fluttering in the wind on the bridge of the 'Dragon Might', as our aircraft carrier strike group cuts through the waves! This is the pride, this power we want to sing about!"
Standing at the conductor's post, facing the professional band and the magnificent choir of the Navy Art Troupe, Wang Yueheng spoke clearly and steadily, personally demonstrating and explaining the key points of singing "Singing for the Motherland".
As he spoke, the atmosphere in the entire rehearsal hall became exceptionally solemn.
He then set a key, and a majestic and stirring prelude immediately burst forth from the orchestra.
"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind—"
"How loud the victory song is—"
Wang Yueheng led the choir into song; his voice was high-pitched, bright, and full of infectious energy.
Inspired by this, the choir members straightened their backs and sang along with their best energy.
"Singing praises to our beloved motherland, from this day forward we march towards prosperity and strength—"
When the magnificent chorus was sung in unison for the first time in the rehearsal hall, the sound seemed to pierce through the roof and soar into the sky!
Every note seemed to carry weight, striking the hearts of everyone present.
Zheng Junming, the deputy commander standing in the corner, who had originally been looking for faults and scrutiny, was now completely frozen.
His eyes, behind his gold-rimmed glasses, widened involuntarily.
As a classically trained composer, his musical appreciation is top-notch.
He knew all too well the significance of this song, "Ode to the Motherland"!
Melody... Lyrics... Spirit...
Simple, yet it gets straight to the point!
Passionate, yet not at all exaggerated!
It seems to be naturally imbued with a sacred sense of mission and the powerful voice of the times.
It can instantly ignite the patriotic fervor and national pride of all listeners!
