The fragrance of dangui is fragrant, and the flowers are good and the moon is full.
On the evening of September 21, the "Bay Area Rising Moon" 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Film And Music Gala will be held in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. "Where are you on mid-autumn night?" How far from home? At the moment you are homesick, and home is looking forward to you. The theme propaganda film of the party, "Bright Moon Shines Back", with a few familiar greetings, evoked the pulse warmth of countless people's homesickness.
People's hearts are united, and the moon is rounder. Based on the regional characteristics of the Greater Bay Area, this film music evening conveys joy and warmth during the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival. The evening party invited nearly 200 well-known filmmakers and musicians from the mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan to gather in the Bay Area, using classic film music as the medium, inviting mainland audiences, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan compatriots, and Chinese people around the world to enjoy the autumn sky and bright moon.
The main visual design of the evening is a glittering "viaduct" shining in the night sky. This bridge is the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, which has set many world-highest. The completion and opening of the bridge has brought closer personnel exchanges and economic and trade exchanges between Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao, and is of great significance to promoting the development of the Greater Bay Area, supporting the integration of Hong Kong and Macao into the overall situation of national development, and comprehensively promoting mutually beneficial cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong and Macao.
The bridge and the reflection in the water are abstracted into three groups of lines, 15, 11 and 1. "15" echoes the Mid-Autumn Festival theme of "August 15th Round", while "11" symbolizes the Greater Bay Area as the sum of nine cities and two special administrative regions. The choice of the image of the bridge as the core intention of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala further deepened the meaning of the party.
The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is a bridge of dreams, a bridge of concentricity, a bridge of self-confidence, a bridge of rejuvenation, and a "people's heart bridge" connecting Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. When the bridge is bright and bright- the bright moon pattern on the bridge presents the shape of the film disc and shines with soft lines like sound waves, symbolizing that the evening party will share the beauty of music, the beauty of movies and the beauty of harmony at home and abroad, and build a bridge of culture and spirit of the same heart in the Chinese Gongming Moon and the Bay Area.
"The Song of the Seven Sons" will be sung again, and the wanderer will return to his mother's arms early
Cloudless mirror Kyushu, the most reunion night is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has a common cultural bloodline, regional emotional communion and close personal affinity, which together affect the care and care of the people of the whole country. This evening will stage Cantonese songs from many classic film and television works, using the melody in memory to ignite the passion of youth. At the same time, many original innovative songs will also be officially performed.
"The bay rises in the bright moon, in this galaxy on earth; how many hearts and hearts are together, how precious..." This theme song composed by Chang Shilei and called "Bay" will be sung for the first time at the party. The song draws on the lyrics of the Cantonese traditional nursery rhyme "Moonlight": "Moonlight, Illuminating the Earth", depicting the tranquility and leisure of "Heaven and Earth" and "Borrowing Fishing Fire at Night", the happiness and happiness of "WarmIng the Heart Nest on the Shore" and "Consummating the Lights of Ten Thousand Homes", and the grandeur of "How many dynasties and twilights, thousands of miles; wanting to ride the long wind and hang up the sails to chase", which laid the overall tone for the evening party to have both tradition and modernity, inheritance and innovation in parallel.
At that time, the famous singer Faye Wong will sing the theme song of the "Bay Area Rising Moon" 2021 Greater Bay Area Mid-Autumn Festival Film Music Gala "Bay". The Song of the Bright Moon is dedicated to the Bay Area, and it is willing to share a good day with heaven.
Household names such as "Pearl of the Orient", "Crooked Moon", "Moon Hazy Bird Obscurity" and so on will be reinterpreted, and "Song of the Seven Sons", which has the special significance of Macao's return to the motherland, will also be listed among them.
Most of the audience heard this song for the first time, probably at the 1999 Macao handover party, 9-year-old Macao girl Yun Yunlin sang in a childish child's voice: "Do you know that 'Macau' is not my real surname, I have been away from you for too long, mother..." At such a special moment of national expectation, a "Song of the Seven Sons" touched the heartstrings of countless Chinese children.
"Song of the Seven Sons" is a group of poems composed by the famous poet Wen Yiduo, including "Macao", "Hong Kong", "Taiwan", "Weihaiwei", "Guangzhou Bay", "Kowloon Island" and "Lushun Dalian". Today's most widely sung version is adapted from the first of the poems, "Song of the Seven Sons, Macao".
In 1922, at the age of 23, Wen Yiduo went to the United States to study. At a time when Chinese society was withering and the mountains and rivers were broken, Wen Yiduo, who was living abroad, deeply felt that his homeland was "lost to the motherland and abused by aliens (Introduction to the Song of the Seven Sons - Reporter's Note)", and in March 1925, he angrily wrote "The Song of the Seven Sons". In the poem, Wen Yiduo uses anthropomorphic techniques, comparing the seven lands omitted by the great powers in China to seven children far away from their mothers, who are bullied by foreign races and eager to return to their mother's arms.
At the end of 1998, the premiere of "Macao Years", Yun Yunlin's childish children's voice with sincere emotions, the theme song "Song of the Seven Sons" poked the hearts of countless people, and the song was subsequently selected as the "theme song" to welcome the return of Macao. In 2006, the Chang'e-1 lunar exploration satellite also played the "Song of the Seven Sons" during its orbit around the moon. In 2019, the 20th anniversary of Macao's return to the motherland, Long Zilan, who was also a student of Macao Peizheng Secondary School with Yunlin Yunlin, became a new generation of singers of "Song of the Seven Sons". At that time, 11-year-old Long Zilan issued an invitation to the members of the choir of "Song of the Seven Sons" who participated in the 1999 Macao Handover Party through the radio, and everyone responded and re-sang the classic with Long Zilan, and "Song of the Seven Sons" realized a dialogue across time and space.
At the "Bay Area Rising Moon" party, "The Song of the Seven Sons" will be sung again, and Macao has been back for a long time.
The three places are concentric, and the Bay Area is accelerating

"What is warmer than the movie is life, what is warmer than the Mid-Autumn Festival is companionship, and what is warmer than the bright moon is the motherland." Duan Rong, the general director of the party, said so. As one of the regions with the highest degree of openness in China, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has an important strategic position in the overall situation of national development. Today, with the successive introduction of the two plans in Hengqin and Qianhai, the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is entering an accelerated period, striving to develop into a more dynamic economic zone, a high-quality living circle suitable for living and working, and a demonstration area for in-depth cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong and Macao, and constantly forging ahead into a world-class bay area.
