Chapter 382: Theme Party
When she got home, Shen Xiaorong told her parents the whole story. Shen Jianhua was applauded on the spot and said:
"Can a good social benefit be measured in money? That kid Huang Han has a stronger consciousness than many cadres in the county!"
Qin Shuzhen said: "He made money and repaid the society. This is exactly the original intention of the country to let some people get rich first and drive more people to get rich!"
Shen Jianhua affirmed: "Not only that, the hundreds of people who helped Huang Han last year only received the lyrics when they spent a few cents to buy tea eggs.
This year, we have seen those who have been helped embark on the road to prosperity and take the initiative to double their returns. This is the transmission of positive energy and the best interpretation of giving roses to others and leaving a lingering fragrance!"
"Dad, can you inform the Public Security Bureau to send police officers to help maintain order?"
"This is the responsibility of the Public Security Bureau. Not only will I notify you, but I will also prepare to go to the scene to see it myself on Saturday night!"
Qin Shuzhen said: "If you go, the impact of this matter will be great!"
"We usually have to publicize our willingness to help others. If there are ready-made opportunities, we should seize them. The greater the influence, the better. That kid Huang Han is very thoughtful. He is not a mediocre person who cares about his head and body. He even considers preventing accidents."
"Then don't forget to notify the Public Security Bureau tomorrow!"
"I've written it down in my diary now and won't forget it."
On Wednesday, a large red paper notice written in calligraphy was posted on the poster board of the movie theater, with an eye-catching title, "Giving Roses to Others, Leave the Fragrance in Hands."
Too many people have learned that the family of the little boy who sold tea eggs under the west wall of the movie theater last summer has completely escaped poverty. Now he wants to thank the uncles and aunts who helped him.
He is going to perform a wonderful show at seven o'clock on Saturday night at the place where he used to sell tea eggs.
He also wants to recycle the lyrics he once gave away at a price of one yuan each.
This thing was so new that everyone was curious. It spread from ten to ten, and soon it spread throughout the streets and alleys of Sanshui City.
The little girl selling tea eggs received Huang Han's notice. At first she didn't believe that she could sell a thousand tea eggs on Saturday night, but she soon believed it.
Because on the night when Huang Han posted the notice, the one hundred tea eggs at the girl's house were sold out within an hour.
Every customer smiled and asked her if there was really someone performing here on Saturday, and she was really prepared to spend money to buy back the lyrics she gave last year!
The little girl received Huang Han's care and told the truth.
The next day, her family cooked fifty more tea eggs, but they were still sold out in less than an hour. Many customers who specially came to visit also talked about it: "Giving roses to people's hands will leave a lingering fragrance!"
On Friday night, it took the little girl's family an hour to sell all 200 tea eggs. The two sisters danced with joy.
Huang Han was unhurried these days, spending an hour and a half every day organizing rehearsals for the thirty or so students participating in the performance.
The protagonists are of course Cheng Wenge, Qian Aiguo, Zhang Chunmei, Shen Xiaorong, and Liu Xiaoli. They only rehearse ten songs in total, so it’s no big deal.
But after Principal Zhu and Party Secretary Ma inquired about the situation, trouble arose.
Secretary Shen actually knew and supported this meaningful matter, and notified the Public Security Bureau to send people to maintain order, and also stated that he would come to the scene to see it in person.
It was definitely wrong not to report this situation to the leaders of the Culture and Education Bureau. How could Principal Zhu and Party Secretary Ma not be aware of this?
However, after the report, the trouble became serious. The Bureau of Culture and Education asked the Experimental Primary School to take the lead in organizing the party. Cadres, teachers, and leaders from the education and cultural system will be present.
Come on! The spontaneous behavior of a few primary school students has evolved into the collective behavior of the experimental primary school. How can Principal Zhu remain calm?
It is necessary to set up the party scene. Power supply, speakers, and microphones must be there! What should I do if the experimental elementary school does not have some equipment? Go to the newly established county radio and television station to borrow it!
The equipment of the county station is a precious national asset, how can it be lent out casually?
The county radio and television station was under the control of the County Propaganda Department. The director and secretary went to the Propaganda Department in person to ask for instructions from the leaders. Minister Xu, the head of the Propaganda Department, already knew that Secretary Shen was going to bring the county party committee team to the scene in person, including him.
Minister Xu not only agreed to lend equipment to the radio and television stations, but also gave instructions, asking the county radio and television stations to assist the experimental school in organizing this themed party of "giving roses to others and leaving fragrance in hands".
Principal Zhu, Secretary Ma, Teacher Huang and dozens of leaders and teachers from the experimental primary school, as well as hundreds of senior students, watched the last rehearsal in the "61st Classroom" on Friday afternoon.
The program lasted less than an hour, and after ten songs were sung, the program came to an end before they knew it. Both the teacher and the students felt that they still had more to enjoy.
The singing performance was wonderful! Principal Zhu and Secretary Ma were very excited.
They feel even more responsible because this theme party is destined to be very popular. Who can predict how many people will come to watch? The pressure to maintain order is huge!
Teachers, please don’t stay aloof! Every one of you is one of them. Come to the scene on Saturday evening to help maintain order!
As a result, the party, which was originally a simple singing of a few songs, was turned into a serious event. Not only were reverberations installed, speakers were also installed on a one-meter-two-meter-high stage.
Principal Zhu came to see the performance and believed that a stage higher than the ground was necessary to accommodate hundreds of people watching.
Otherwise, the people behind won't be able to see anything, and they will definitely squeeze in and cause a stampede, and he, the principal, will not be able to escape the blame.
The weather on Saturday was good, the air was crisp and the temperature was comfortable. There was no chance of heat stroke due to crowding.
The performance only started at seven o'clock, but at around five o'clock in the afternoon, the stage had been set up, the two pianos were in place, and the sound system, which was considered advanced at the time, was also adjusted.
This set of speakers is a high-end product that the radio and television station just bought this spring. It has been used several times during county conferences, but this is the first time it has been used for a party.
The leaders of the Cultural and Educational Bureau believed that this performance had far-reaching meaning and decided to record the entire performance live. They specially found connections to borrow equipment from a radio station in the city and hired a master.
Such street performances would be held every week in Sanshui City two thousand years later, led by the Cultural Affairs Bureau. Unfortunately, the only people who could insist on watching for an hour were the organizers or relatives of the staff.
However, in 1982, such a performance was definitely popular, and people were waiting for it early.
The host is the promoter Huang Han. Of course, he cannot have stage fright. It is necessary to talk and laugh freely. He can also tell some jokes to adjust the atmosphere.
He first told with great affection that he came here to sell tea eggs at the end of April last year in order to earn some money to supplement his family's income, but no one paid any attention to it.
I thought of the story of singing to attract business, successfully making my first business, selling two tea eggs and getting a dime.
