In the autumn of 1982, the family moved to the first new district in Changchun City, Jilin Province, the "Chaoyang New Area".
This is a three-bedroom, one-bedroom house.
At that time, the "Chaoyang New Area" was more than two miles east of Chaoyang Bridge in Changchun City, close to Puyang Street.
At that time, Puyang Street was very short. North to Xi'an Road, south to Xijiao Road to the end.
At that time, the Jilin Provincial Armed Police Corps was located in a compound of a four-story Japanese-style building on the east side of Puyang Street.
At that time, moving to a new house, the whole family was very happy.
In those days and months, when people talked about home, they never talked about square meters, but said one bedroom and one living room, two bedrooms and one living room, three bedrooms and one living room.
In those years, people's minds had begun to civilize. Listening to love songs is no longer blushing and heartbeating, reading love novels is used to it, and dancing ballroom dance is no longer seen as a hooligan...
At that time, few people entered the cinema, but the "video hall" was suddenly emerging and becoming more and more "developed", various "concerts" were very popular, and the dance blindness, flared pants, and toad mirror became fashionable...
Against such a background, the "Spring Festival Gala" held by CCTV buckled the "big hat", pointed out, and talked about many fewer people.
At that time, the TV in the home was still an eight-inch black-and-white TV.
January 14, 1983, the first day of the first lunar month.
This year, as soon as she entered the Moon Gate, my mother began to arrange the furniture in a sloppy manner, clean the house, wash the curtains, bedspreads, clothes, etc.
This year, as soon as they entered the small year, the second niece, the second nephew, and the third nephew came home during the winter vacation to prepare for the New Year.
In those years and months, the people's lives gradually improved, but in the transitional stage from the planned economy to the market economy, many New Year goods still relied on unit distribution.
Remember, after the new year, my father never came home empty-handed after work. My father either carried two chickens, carried a few bottles of wine, or took back one or two cigarettes and so on.
At that time, very heavy things, such as rice, white noodles, pigs, beef, mutton, beer, etc., were delivered by the unit bus to the homes of each family.
February 12, 1983, is the 30th lunar month, which is the "Chinese New Year's Eve".
In those years and months, there were "radio and television newspapers" every week, announcing the weekly programs of radio stations and television stations, one quarter of a year. Catch up with the Spring Festival and so on, generally a dime, preview half a month, two weeks of programs.
At that time, there were very few television stations, and television programs were not broadcast all the time during the day, and at twenty-two o'clock in the evening, there were no television programs.
In the Chinese New Year's Eve of 1983, the whole family sat around the TV set, laughing and waiting for CCTV to have the Spring Festival Gala.
At that time, the door of the country was slowly just opening, and people generally did not have much insight, and it was strange to see anything, curious to see anything, and fresh to see.
At that time, people could not imagine what kind of content and form the "Spring Festival Gala" was.
When CCTV's "Spring Festival Gala", a large-scale variety show, was broadcast, it was really a thousand alleys and empty people without compromise and no exaggeration!
It is said that on February 12, 1983, the 30th and 20th hour of the lunar month, the "Spring Festival Gala" of CCTV was broadcast live that year.
I still don't know whether it's true or not, and I don't have the leisure to explore.
The whole party is a hodgepodge of songs, songs and dances, skits, dances, guessing puzzles, Peking opera, cross-talk, magic, acrobatics, etc.
You know, what must be known is: people at that time, after the suffering of the "eight dramas in ten years", where they experienced this "formation", it is not surprising that the empty people in wanxiang are easy to understand.
Looking back at the first "Spring Festival Gala", there are too many deficiencies in lighting, sound, stage, host, etc., but it is understandable.
After all, this is the groundbreaking first practice, the first attempt, and the first large-scale comprehensive literary and art performance.
Since then, every year during the Chinese New Year's Spring Festival, the people have looked forward to the spiritual feast of CCTV's "Spring Festival Gala".
