preface
"Chairman, do you still have an impression of that Xiaolin who came to Zhongnanhai to sing for you last time? She has been coming to me lately with gifts in the hope of singing to you again, but I have confiscated all the gifts and asked her to go back first. ”
Xiaoli of the Air Politics and Cultural Labor Corps reported to Chairman Mao and asked for Chairman Mao's opinion.
When Chairman Mao heard this, he put down the pen in his hand, pondered for a while, and told Xiaoli: "I remember her, she sang well, but I hate her style, don't let her come in the future." ”
This matter needs to be started a month ago.
Lin Junqiu met Chairman Mao for the first time
"Jinyun, you said that the scenes recorded in these magnetic disks are also sung by everyone, but why do I always feel that it is almost meaningful?"
Chairman Mao looked thoughtfully at the magnetic discs that Jiang Qing had recorded for him and said to his life secretary, Meng Jinyun.
Because Chairman Mao was busy with state affairs, but he was also a veritable "opera fan", Jiang Qing recorded many famous operas for him in magnetic films.
However, Chairman Mao always felt that listening to the drama in the magnetic film was far less beautiful than listening to the scene immersively.
Meng Jinyun smiled when he heard this: "Chairman, how can I not hear the difference inside, is it the reason why I don't understand opera?" I even think that the recorded one can be listened to and played, which is more convenient. ”
Who knows, Chairman Mao's expression suddenly became serious, and he nodded solemnly, "It's different, it's too different, the opera of our motherland contains many heroic deeds from ancient times to the present, and it can help us better understand the cultural heritage of the mainland." You don't understand history, that's why you don't understand. Jinyun, help me find a little girl who can sing, come and sing a few pieces for me! ”
Meng Jinyun nodded and asked, "Chairman, whose play do you want to listen to today?" What about Yang Chunxia or Li Huifang? ”
Chairman Mao shook his head and said that it was enough to invite someone who could sing a few pieces, he just wanted to live a life addiction, those operas were busy themselves, and he didn't want to disturb them anymore.
Xiaoli immediately returned to the Kongzheng Song and Dance Troupe to start looking for a suitable singing horn, and after understanding, she found that Lin Junqiu actually had several years of Peking Opera skills. Xiaoli, who had obtained the treasure, took the initiative to find her and expressed the hope that she could go and sing a few plays to Chairman Mao.
For them, Chairman Mao was a great leader, and it would be very exciting to be able to sing a few verses to Chairman Mao.
Lin Junqiu, who learned that she was selected, immediately agreed, and hurriedly changed into a beautiful and neat new clothes, and before leaving, she secretly put her notepad into the pocket of her clothes.
Along the way, Xiaoli repeatedly emphasized to Lin Junqiu: "The matter of singing to Chairman Mao today is not a rumor!" This is confidential, so be sure to keep your mouth shut in case it causes any unnecessary trouble. ”
Seeing Xiaoli's serious appearance, Lin Junqiu nodded wildly like a pound, but her heart was still secretly happy, accompanied by a little panic, and she was constantly practicing opening her voice along the way.
Although she has studied Peking Opera for several years and has a good voice, she has not sung Peking Opera for several years, and she can't help but feel a little bottomless.
After Xiaoli led Lin Junqiu to Zhongnanhai, she took her straight to Chairman Mao. He also introduced Lin Junqiu to Chairman Mao, who affectionately called her "Xiaolin".
Lin Junqiu, who saw Chairman Mao for the first time, suddenly felt almost untenable, but when she heard Chairman Mao call her "Xiaolin", Lin Junqiu's whole person seemed to become fluttering and about to fly into the sky.
Xiaoli looked at Lin Junqiu's distracted appearance, so she quickly secretly poked her with her elbow. Lin Junqiu, who came back to his senses, reacted and quickly apologized to them for his gaffe just now.
Chairman Mao initially had a very good impression of this polite little girl, and did not take her gaffe to heart, but like a gentle elder, he spoke to the junior, asking her which play she was good at.
Facing the approachable Chairman Mao, Lin Junqiu's heart gradually gained confidence, so he sang a piece of his previous favorite "Mu Guiying vs. Hongzhou".
"How can I talk about it privately, the generals of the Yang family are all selfless for the country."
Lin Junqiu's slightly green voice is very sweet, although he does not have many skilled singing skills, but he sings with a special flavor, which is undoubtedly a new enjoyment for the "opera fan" Chairman Mao.
It's all about it, but it's not finished.
Lin Junqiu observed Chairman Mao a little nervously, for fear of missing any change in expression on his face. But when she saw Chairman Mao's satisfied expression, she became more confident, and took the initiative to volunteer to mention to the chairman: "Let me sing you another piece of "Farewell My Concubine"! ”
Seeing that Chairman Mao nodded and expressed his approval, Lin Junqiu plucked up the courage to sing, and his voice was still so gentle.
I have to say that Lin Junqiu's mind is extremely ingenious. She also added a monologue in front of the singing part, which is very innovative and fascinating.
"The emperor and general, the story of the talented son, you have heard a lot, those feelings and righteousness, kindness and love, and I and me, are all magnificent and inexplicable, and they are not the color of the world at all. In the human world, just wipe the face of the fat powder. ”
"Since I, with the great king in the east and the west, have suffered from wind and frost and toil, year after year. Hatred only hates Wudao Qin for ruining the lives of people, only causing the people to suffer and upside down. ”
Under Lin Junqiu's emotional interpretation, although there were no props and costumes, Chairman Mao seemed to have really seen a flesh-and-blood and vivid Yu Ji.
Both are immersed in the world of opera, only to feel that time flies. After receiving Chairman Mao's praise, Lin Junqiu suddenly made a reluctant request to Chairman Mao before leaving.
She carefully took out the notepad in her pocket and handed it to Chairman Mao, expressing her hope that Chairman Mao would autograph her notebook as a souvenir.
Chairman Mao frowned, but did not say anything more, so he picked up a red pen on the desk and signed his name on it.
But after Lin Junqiu saw the three big characters "Mao Zedong" written on the page, he felt like a beautiful dream, and everything seemed so unreal.
After she quickly thanked Chairman Mao, she left Zhongnanhai with Xiaoli.
On the way back, Xiaoli also repeatedly stressed to Lin Junqiu that the matter of singing to Chairman Mao today must not be publicized everywhere as talking points, so as to avoid causing bad influence.
Lin Junqiu repeatedly agreed.
The "autograph" of the wind
Lin Junqiu, who repeatedly promised to keep a low profile, immediately showed off the autograph left by Chairman Mao in front of her husband as soon as he returned home.
At first, the husband did not believe it, after all, ordinary people like them, if they want to see the chairman as difficult as heaven, how can they still go to sing to the chairman and receive his autograph?
However, when I repeatedly studied the handwriting of the three characters "Mao Zedong", I found that the writing was strong and powerful, and it was indeed Chairman Mao's usual wild grass style, and only then did the husband believe that what his wife said was true.
Lin Junqiu mysteriously told her husband that this matter can be known by his family, but he must not let outsiders know, and his husband immediately nodded in approval.
Who knew that the next day, her husband had a conflict with others because of drunkenness, and even made a shocking statement: "Our family is protected by Chairman Mao, you can't afford to provoke it, our family still has his autograph!" ”
When everyone heard this, they instantly sobered up, Chairman Mao's status in their hearts is not ordinarily lofty, they can sing to Chairman Mao and get his autograph, how close is the relationship between them! ”
Within two days, everyone in this area believed that Lin Junqiu's family had a very close relationship with Chairman Mao. Therefore, everyone often went to curry favor with Lin Junqiu's family.
Although Lin Junqiu was a little displeased with her husband breaking his promise and leaking this confidential matter. But when she gradually became a star-studded existence, she enjoyed it very much.
Gradually, Lin Junqiu began to take the initiative to show off to others, and exaggerated, saying that because she sang too well, Chairman Mao offered to sign her autograph.
He also said that Chairman Mao recognized her singing skills very much, and said that she would go to Zhongnanhai to sing several times a week after that.
But Lin Junqiu found that since he went to Zhongnanhai for the first time to sing. I never went to her again.
In desperation, Lin Junqiu had to prepare a generous gift and visit Xiaoli's house, expressing the hope that Xiaoli could take her to sing again.
At this time, Xiaoli, since this time, also heard some rumors about Lin Junqiu, and asked her why she did not keep her promise.
However, Lin Junqiu directly sold the misery, saying that her husband accidentally stole the autograph given to her by Chairman Mao, questioned her to the end, and finally leaked the news, saying that she was also innocent.
Xiaoli is a hard-mouthed girl, she asked Lin Junqiu to bring all the gifts back, and said that she would find an opportunity to help her ask. Lin Junqiu, who saw a glimmer of hope, went back with joy and waited for the good news.
Then came the scene at the beginning of the article, Chairman Mao added lightly as Xiaoli was about to leave: "That signature, I signed it with a red pen, you go and get busy." ”
Xiaoli suddenly realized that signing with a red pen actually meant "breaking off friendship", and from the moment Lin Junqiu asked Chairman Mao for an autograph, Chairman Mao knew what she was thinking, so it would lead to never wanting to take her again.
epilogue
Xiaoli, who learned the truth, naturally would not introduce Lin Junqiu again, but directly called her.
Lin Junqiu, who received Xiaoli's call, thought that the matter was done, but she did not expect that she would never have the opportunity to sing to Chairman Mao again, and at this time, she regretted that it was too late.
