Little things related to Zhou Enlai.

1930, an underground party named Wu took some gold jewelry to Shanghai to pay party dues and took over. The next day, Zhou Enlai called him in and asked, "Did you lose this gold on the way?" Wu Shuo didn't. He asked, "Are there any difficulties at home recently?" Wu said no again. Said, "Comrade Wu, this is wrong. The gold content is different from what you reported. " I accidentally took out a silver dollar and a balance from my pocket and said, "Because there is no weight, I use silver dollar to weigh the horse." Zhou Enlai took the silver dollar and looked at it. It was worn out. He asked, "Do you count by seven taels?" Wu Shuo: "Because this silver dollar is worn, I calculated that it is 7 Liang 1 money 5." Zhou Enlai said, "Meet me somewhere in five hours." Wu went in less than two hours. Zhou Enlai weighed gold with a silver dollar and a balance.

After weighing, he shook hands with Wu and said, "Comrade Wu, you are a reliable comrade and you are very resourceful."

Zhou Enlai, Chen Yi and jasmine.

Text/Gu Yubao (Jiangsu)

In the past, people always regarded the Great Wall of the Yangtze River, Huangshan Yellow River and Dragon and Lion as symbols of the Chinese nation. Nowadays, the China folk song Jasmine, which is unassuming, unscrupulous and seductive and does not strive for spring, can actually reflect the spirit and cultural character of the Chinese nation, and can "smell" the land of China and spread all over the world! Zhang Yimou, a well-known film director, and his partners carefully created the film Shen Bo, which skillfully inherited and expanded the fragrant meaning of jasmine, giving the world a surprise and China a surprise!

Jasmine is wrapped in the rain and faint fragrance of the successfully held World Expo, bringing people happy memories:

In Jiangsu local operas, there is a melody similar to the melody of jasmine music, called coloratura. According to Zhou, my niece, during the period of 1962, He Deng took her to see Hundred Years Old, which was performed by a troupe in Jiangsu. In the process of watching the drama, she found that her uncle especially appreciated Flower Tune and talked to her aunt in a low voice from time to time. ...

He Fang, a literary youth of the New Fourth Army, began to collect folk songs such as Hua Diao from folk artists at the age of 14. After fifteen years of processing and sorting, it was made into a record "What a Jasmine" by Chinese record companies at the age of 1957. As the commander of the New Fourth Army, Chen Yi was beaming when he learned the creative achievements of the old people, and repeatedly praised the folk songs in northern Jiangsu!

There are dozens of different versions of "Jasmine" folk songs all over the country. If you make a simple comparison: the loudness of Hebei, the simplicity of Qinghai, the softness of Yunnan and the humor of Heilongjiang. Among them, Jiangsu edition is the most famous. According to historical records, as early as 200 years ago, John Barrow, secretary of the first British ambassador to China, introduced the folk song materials of Jasmine in detail in his book A Passage to China. Turandot, a classic opera composed by Italian composer Puccini, premiered at Scala Theatre in Milan on April 25th, 1926. He skillfully used the western opera skills, taking the melody of "Jasmine" as the penetrating motivation to portray characters and promote the plot, and achieved excellent results. Thus, the folk song Jasmine in China has distinct national music attributes, and its smooth lines, lively and symmetrical structure and periodically repeated melody are quite close to the established aesthetic habits of western audiences. Therefore, she is compatible with the charm enjoyed by both orientals and westerners.

From 65438 to 0959, the Nanjing Military Region Front Line Song and Dance Troupe, as the China Youth Delegation Song and Dance Troupe, prepared to participate in the World Youth and Student Peace and Friendship Festival held in Vienna, Austria, and carefully rehearsed the female chorus "Jasmine". Before going abroad, Zhou Enlai and Rola Chen fully affirmed this beautiful, innocent, affectionate and implicit folk song when commenting on the program. Sure enough, in Vienna, the city of music, Jasmine won enthusiastic praise from young people of all colors. 1965, in order to participate in the 10th anniversary of Bandung Conference, China sent a government delegation with Zhou Enlai as the head and Chen Yi as the deputy head. Before leaving, Premier Zhou told the accompanying frontline song and dance troupe to bring an excellent program "Jasmine". As a result, "Jasmine" is fragrant in Indonesia, a country of thousands of islands. At the party, when the song "Jasmine" started, Zhou Enlai stepped onto the dance floor and danced excitedly. When the music stopped, he deliberately turned to the actor who sang this song and sat down. He said affectionately, "When I heard your song, I thought of northern Jiangsu! I came out of Huai' an at the age of twelve or thirteen, and I haven't returned to my hometown in northern Jiangsu in fifty-four years! " Then, at the instigation of Chen Yi, the actresses happily sang Jasmine again. Zhou Enlai applauded and said with excitement and humor, "Sing it again, I'm really homesick! "

No wonder, since the beginning of the new century, the Golden Hall New Year Concert in Vienna, the APEC welcome party in Shanghai and Paalmann, who played a song with thousands of piano children, have all inspired the beautiful melody of jasmine. No wonder Russian meritorious actors sang in Chinese, American saxophonists adapted it into a solo, UNESCO was selected as a global music textbook, and humans launched spacecraft into outer space as a gift to life in outer space. ...
