Li Youyuan's Personal Life

From 65438 to 0944, Yan 'an Lu Yi Yangko Team performed in Suide District, and planned to write a large-scale Yangko opera "Xian 'an Road" reflecting the theme of immigrants. At this time, Liu Chi's aides Wang Dahua, Zhang Ping, He Jingzhi, Wang Gang and others went to Jiaxian and Wubao in Yulin, Shaanxi Province to express their condolences to the independent regiment soldiers. I passed Wulongpu (now Wuzhen, jia county) and stayed in a mule shop. I learned that two immigrant models, Li Youyuan and Li Zengzheng's uncle and nephew, also live here, so I invited them over. Sitting on the kang chatting, suddenly Li Youyuan said, "We made up a song to promote immigration." On hearing the new words, Liu Chi quickly took out a pen and paper and prepared to recite songs and music. Uncle Li changed his voice and sang, "Dongfanghong, the sun has risen, and there is a Mao Zedong in China. He fought for the survival of the people, he is the savior of the people ... "Liu Chi heard this. Isn't this the tune of sesame oil? "Beautiful mountains and rivers, flat heaven and earth, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia led by Chairman Mao, welcoming immigrants to open mountains and forests, and our frontiers are all red; Three mountains are low and five mountains are high. Chairman Mao runs the country well, and the frontier cries. People praise Tang Yao; The border area is red, and the border area is red. There are no poor people in the border areas. If there are poor people, they will immigrate, dig out the poor roots and turn over ... "

On one occasion, when Liu Chi went to jia county (now jia county) Middle School to tutor students in chorus and sang "Dongfanghong, the sun rises ...", their music teacher said that they had already sung this song, and the propaganda minister of the county party committee was too verbose, so he deleted one paragraph and changed it into three paragraphs.

1945, Yan' an organized "March into the Northeast Cadre Corps", and Lu Yi organized the literary and art cadre team as the eighth squadron. Liu Chi and Gong Mu (the author of March of China People's Liberation Army) set out from Yan 'an and walked all the way through five provinces. On the way to March, everyone sang "Immigration Song" repeatedly and sang along with the editor until they reached the northeast. In the same year 165438+ 10, Liu Chi organized a performance in Shenyang and invited Gong Mu to write lyrics. Liu Chi, Gong Mu, Wang Dahua, Levin, Tian Fang, Yan Wenjing, etc. held each other and added three new words. In the first paragraph, replace "struggle for survival" with "struggle for happiness". /kloc-0 On the March in September, 945, Gong Mu wrote a 37-line short poem "Departure". The first two sentences are "the * * * production party, like the sun, shines where it shines", and the last two sentences are "where there is a * * * production party, the people will be liberated". At that time, I didn't realize that it could be a passage in Dongfanghong. Finally, we added a new word "Chairman Mao, who loves the people, is our guide, leading us forward in order to build a new China". In order to reflect the characteristics of local folk songs in northern Shaanxi, the third paragraph reads: "The * * * production party, like the sun, shines wherever it shines, and with the * * * production party, the people will be liberated." After rewriting, the first performance was in Shenyang. Liu Chi conducted the chorus and won warm applause from the audience. 1In the large-scale dance epic "Dongfanghong" filmed in June, 965, this folk song was put on the stage and became the opening song. The scene is grand and magnificent, and it has become an ode to a generation of great men.
