Chapter 680 He Yuzhu is becoming more and more distracted

Xu Huizhen seemed to see Jiang Yueyao's embarrassment and smiled calmly: "Zhu Zi, I'll wait for a while, no problem."

Jiang Yueyao was delighted when she heard this and said, "Director He, I won't take up much of your time. I'll just ask you a few questions."

He Yuzhu paused and said, "Reporter Jiang, I can only answer three questions for you."

Jiang Yueyao smiled sweetly: "No problem, first question, how did you write such an emotional patriotic song?"

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment, then said solemnly: "It should be out of a strong love for the motherland!"

"Second question, have you ever been to the places in your lyrics, such as the rolling blue waves of the South China Sea and the fluttering snow of the North?"

"I have been to some places, and I have not been to some places, but I have seen them in books. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely visit these places."

"My third question is, Director He, you sing so well, have you ever thought about joining the National Federation of Trade Unions Art Troupe and becoming a singer?"

"No, singing is just my hobby. Cooking is my job."

"Director He, thank you for the interview. I wish you continued success and a bright future."

"Thank you!"

……

The next day, as soon as He Yuzhu arrived at the office, Yang Xinmin came to see him.

"Zhu Zi, follow me quickly, the military is coming!"

He Yuzhu asked in confusion: "Director, the military is here, what do you want from me?"

Yang Xinmin explained: "The military took a liking to the song 'I Love You, China' that you sang yesterday, and they want you to record it and promote it in the army."

He Yuzhu understood what he meant after hearing this and followed Yang Xinmin to his office.

When He Yuzhu walked into the office, he saw a middle-aged man in military uniform, with a resolute look and meticulous work.

He Yuzhu took a look at the other party's shoulder straps, which had two bars and four stars, and turned out to be the rank of colonel.

Yang Xinmin said respectfully: "Colonel Miao, this is the canteen director of our factory, the author of "The Chinese" and "I Love You, China", Comrade He Yuzhu."

"He Yuzhu, this is Colonel Miao, deputy director of the military art troupe."

He Yuzhu pretended to be excited and said, "Hello, Captain Miao, I am He Yuzhu!"

Colonel Miao smiled gently and said, "Hello, Comrade He Yuzhu. It's better to meet you in person than to hear about you. It's true that heroes emerge young!"

He Yuzhu said modestly: "Captain Miao, you are too kind."

Colonel Miao suddenly said seriously: "Comrade He Yuzhu, I am a soldier and I never come here to pretend. I admire your talent and would like to invite you to join the art troupe. The salary will not be lower than what you get in the steel mill. What do you think?"

He Yuzhu's expression froze. Jiang Yueyao had just asked him last night if he was interested in joining the art troupe, and today the deputy director of the troupe personally invited him to join. Could it be that Jiang Yueyao had some incredible background?

Yang Xinmin was very anxious when he saw He Yuzhui was in deep thought. He Yuzhui was now the star of the steel mill, so he naturally didn't want to let him go.

After a while, He Yuzhu said apologetically:

"Captain Miao, thank you for your invitation, but I still prefer my current job."

After He Yuzhu said this, Yang Xinmin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Colonel Miao's expression did not change at all, and he said calmly:

"Everyone has their own aspirations. Since you like your current job, I won't force you. If you change your mind one day, remember to come find me at any time."

He Yuzhu said with gratitude: "Thank you for your understanding, Captain Miao..."

Colonel Miao waved his hand and said, "Comrade He Yuzhu, enough of the small talk, let's get down to business!"

"Our art troupe likes your song 'I Love You, China' and would like to ask you to record it and give it to the army for promotion."

"It's my honor that you like this song. I am willing to cooperate with you to the fullest!" He Yuzhu looked flattered.

Colonel Miao nodded slightly: "Then come with me, I'll take you to record the song."

"it is good!"

He Yuzhu followed Colonel Miao out of the steel mill, got into his green jeep, and soon arrived at the China Record Factory.

The predecessor of China Record Factory can be traced back to the Great China Record Company, EMI Record Company, Victory Record Company and other record companies before liberation.

After liberation, the state took over these record factories and merged them into China Record Factory.

China Record Factory, recording studio.

As Colonel Miao listened to He Yuzhu singing, the love in his eyes became even stronger, and he wished he could tie He Yuzhu back to the art troupe right now.

This song is quite difficult to sing, and He Yuzhu spent most of the day to record it.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, you are a natural singer. Staying in the steel rolling mill will only bury your talent. Come to our art troupe!" Colonel Miao invited again.

He Yuzhu said with embarrassment: "Captain Miao, I'm used to working in the steel mill and I really don't want to leave my current job."

Upon hearing this, Colonel Miao said with a look of regret: "Okay then!"

"Comrade He Yuzhu, if you don't want to come to our art troupe, then you can write a military song for us, right?"

When He Yuzhu heard this, songs such as "Green Flowers in the Army", "We Are Soldiers", "Little White Poplar", "Night in the Naval Port", "For Whom", "Camel Bells", and "When Your Hair Brushes Against My Gun" immediately emerged in his mind.

Out of admiration and respect for the soldiers, he wanted to write down all these songs, but he was already very prominent now and didn't want to be in the spotlight anymore.

If he agreed to write a song for the army today, and another unit asked him to write a song tomorrow, what would he do? He didn't want his peaceful life to be disrupted.

He Yuzhu declined politely, "Captain Miao, I have never been in the military, and my abilities are limited, so I may not be able to write the military song you want."

Captain Miao pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Comrade He Yuzhu, this is your fault. I heard that your previous two songs were both written within a week."

"You must write a decent military song for me, or I will come to the steel mill to block you every day."

He Yuzhu said bitterly, "Captain Miao, I can only say I'll try, but I can't guarantee that I can write a good military song. I hope you can understand!"

Captain Miao patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I'm not in a hurry, take your time to write."

He Yuzhu said helplessly: "Okay then!"

……

He Yuzhu didn't take the songwriting matter seriously. He still slacked off at work and went home to spend time with his wife after get off work.

By the way, in addition to these two things, he usually does two more things.

The first thing is to learn music knowledge from Wang Minghan.

Ever since Wang Minghan knew about his musical talent, he cried and made a fuss to take him as his apprentice. He Yuzhu was so annoyed that he had no choice but to reluctantly become his disciple and learn music theory from him.

Perhaps because of his rebirth, He Yuzhu's memory and comprehension have greatly improved. He can learn things quickly, and before long, he can compose music on his own.

The second thing was to follow the factory band to perform in various units.

Since the release of "I Love You, China", it has quickly become popular in Beijing and spread to the surrounding areas at a very fast speed.

Whenever a sister unit held an event, they would invite He Yuzhu to perform. Some units could refuse, but for some units even the factory directors and secretaries could not refuse.
