This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 158 A Mobilization Speech for the Children

Shen Qingyi replied quickly.

"I'll keep an eye on it for you."

Then she asked, "Why are you signing so many people? Your priority right now should be to build up your own business."

Lu Ran: "How big do you think a celebrity has to be to be considered big?"

He explained his idea to Shen Qingyi.

Shen Qingyi is alone in her office right now.

Her outfit gave off the vibe of a cool and aloof female CEO, but she was holding a plush toy in her arms and had a lollipop in her mouth.

That's not aloof at all.

After reading Lu Ran's teaching plan, Shen Qingyi sat up straight.

"He is truly a very positive role model."

But upon hearing Lu Ran's idea, Shen Qingyi became excited.

There are too many rubbish celebrities in the industry these days. If Lu Ran's idea can be successfully implemented and a group of celebrities who are truly rooted in the people can be cultivated, it would be a great achievement.

This is very, very difficult.

But it is precisely because it is difficult that it is challenging and makes people want to do it.

Shen Qingyi thought to herself, "I will help you realize this dream."

After chatting with Shen Qingyi, Lu Ran had dinner with the children.

After the National Day Gala, the children of the Sunshine Choir will come into the public eye.

In addition, the next episode of "We Are Walking on the Road" will air in a few days.

The children of the Sunshine Choir's rendition of "I Love You, China" will surely spark discussion among netizens.

In this day and age, we must seize this opportunity.

Otherwise, it's hard to imagine when we'll achieve that kind of popularity again.

These next few days, we need to prepare the first song for the Sunshine Choir.

Lu Ran searched through the list of 300 children's songs.

He quickly found a suitable song.

"This is the one."

Lu Ran looked at the children and asked, "Your brother said before that he would take you to Beijing during the National Day holiday, but the plan has changed a bit. We have a new song that we need to practice. Let's play after we've practiced the new song, okay?"

The children's faces showed regret.

Lu Ran didn't really treat these children as kids.

They're all in elementary school now, and they all have their own ideas.

It's definitely unpleasant when the agreed-upon plan is changed.

He also told the children about forming the Sunshine Choir.

Some of the children were excited, while others didn't quite understand.

Lu Ran decided to make use of her public speaking skills.

"Students, we have been singing this song, 'Ode to Young China,' for the past few days. Mr. Liang Qichao said that when the youth are wise, the nation is wise; when the youth are strong, the nation is strong. Now, we have the opportunity to prove this statement with our songs!"
The Sunshine Choir not only sings for the students at the school, but also for Principal Sun and for all those who care about us!
Your parents, your grandparents, children all over the country, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, can all hear your singing!

Your voices will be like saplings planted in the desert, gradually changing the world!

"Would you like to join your brother and sing for the whole world?"

As Lu Ran spoke passionately, the children's eyes gradually lit up.

They seem to be doing something amazing!
So that my parents, who live far away, can hear it too!

A little boy raised his hand and shouted, "I want it!"

With this one person taking the lead, the rest of the children also raised their hands.

"I also want!"

"I also want!"

The children's voices were full of energy, and they shouted very loudly.

It's fortunate that we're still inside the headquarters building; otherwise, the sound alone would have attracted the attention of passersby.

Lu Ran was very satisfied with his mobilization speech.

Everyone got fired up!
"The new song I've prepared for everyone isn't difficult to sing. These next few days we'll continue practicing 'Ode to Young China.' Starting October 1st, we'll begin practicing the new song. Once we've mastered it, I'll record a video and post it online so you can share it with your parents and grandparents."

"it is good!"

The children got excited.

When the time came, it was 6:30 pm on September 30th.

The Beijing Central Radio and Television Station has officially announced the program list for this year's National Day Gala.

Everyone was quite surprised when they saw the program schedule.

"Lu Ran is actually going to perform two shows?"

"This is unprecedented; a singer actually has two shows."

"Is this really a rookie singer who just debuted this year?"

The sixth program on the program list is "The Nation," a duet by Lu Ran and Su Qingtang.

The tenth performance was a solo of "Ode to Young China" by Lu Ran. Lu Ran's name was listed among the performers, along with the Guizhou Province Sunshine Children's Choir.

The program list released at this time is the final program list and will not be changed.

This greatly disappointed the group of netizens who were slandering Lu Ran online.

After all, even their older brother couldn't get on the National Day Gala, but Lu Ran did.

Not only will they perform, but they'll also sing two songs!
"Isn't it just because of the influence of Teacher Shunqiziran? Anyone can sing this national anthem!"

"That's right, whoever the teacher writes a song for will get to perform on the National Day Gala."

"There's not much to say about this song. Lu Ran should just focus on singing his own version of 'Ode to Young China'."

The haters expressed their opinions online, but their words were laced with sarcasm.

I registered a Weibo account naturally, but I've hardly ever posted anything on it.

I only interacted with Lien Hsing-Han once before.

Some celebrities' fans even frequently leave comments on Shunqiziran's Weibo, suggesting that he write a song for their idol.

Everyone knows that the main theme songs written by Shunqizi are all masterpieces. Any singer who can get one of them can secure a spot on the Spring Festival Gala.

Previous works like "The Song of the Earth" and "Come Home Often" are examples of this.

These two songs have become the most requested songs for next year's Spring Festival Gala.

The song "The Nation" was also featured on the National Day Gala.

In fact, getting on the National Day Gala is even more difficult than getting on the Spring Festival Gala.

After all, the Spring Festival Gala has many programs and a large budget, while the National Day Gala has fewer programs and fewer people to arrange them.

This is a very precious opportunity for many singers.

Some of the critics even turned around and attacked Lu Ran's book, "A Young China's Manifesto".

The song hasn't even been released yet, and they've already started attacking it.

Lu Ran's fans didn't care.

Since the central station approved it, it means there's nothing seriously wrong with the song.

Although CCTV is not doing well with its Spring Festival Gala now, it is actually the comedy programs that are not doing well; the song and dance programs are still quite good.

In this regard, we can completely trust CCTV and Lu Ran.

At 8 p.m. sharp, the live broadcast of the National Day Gala officially began.

Backstage, Lu Ran and Su Qingtang sat together.

The children from the choir were standing nearby, and the makeup artists were checking everyone's look and makeup.

The children were all dressed in matching outfits: the girls wore dark skirts, the boys wore dark trousers, white shirts, and red scarves.

Everyone was brimming with youthful energy.

Su Qingtang was wearing a red dress today, which made her look elegant, dignified and poised.

After a while, it was the two of them's turn to go on stage.

When Lu Ran sang "The Nation," he still used sign language, which has become a characteristic of his performance of this song.

In the audience, some elderly people sitting at the front nodded repeatedly.

"This song is really good."

"Yes, without a home there is no country, and without a country there is no home."

"Who is this young man singing? I've never seen him before."

"His name is Lu Ran, and you may have heard his song."

"What song is it?"

"Serve the country with utmost loyalty."

The elderly people smiled.

"So it was he who sang 'Serve the Country with Utmost Loyalty'? I remember now."

These elderly people with special identities all remembered the name Lu Ran.

After the song ended, Lu Ran and Su Qingtang returned backstage.

The two didn't say much, and Lu Ran quickly went to the changing room to change his clothes.

The next song will be coming soon.

After changing his clothes, Lu Ran went to the children in the choir.

Lu Ran asked loudly, "Is everyone ready?"

The children shouted in unison, "Ready!"

At this moment, a staff member said, "Teacher Lu Ran, get ready to go on stage!"

Lu Ran nodded and led the children onto the stage.

On the other side, the host was also announcing the program.

"How can we respond to the expectations of our predecessors a century ago with the voice of youth?"

"How can we use today's hard work to forge the brilliance of China tomorrow!"

"Next, let's welcome young singer Lu Ran to perform 'Ode to Young China,' a song dedicated to the youth of China in the new era!"
