From "Ten Farewell to the Red Army" to "Yingshan Red", tens of thousands of people in the "Ganchao" competition sang the red melody - "As you sing, your eyes get wet"
2025-09-18
In September, the land of Ganpo is intertwined with heat waves and passion. A unique football feast - the 2025 Jiangxi City Football Super League ("Gan Chao") is in full swing. On the evening of September 7th, at the National Fitness and Sports Center in Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province, the Ji'an team played against the Fuzhou team at home, hoping for the arrival of the Red Army and the reflection of mountain red on the mountains. During the pre match performance period, a moving scene appeared at the venue: on the green field, members of the choir from the School of Arts at Jinggangshan University passionately performed the song "Yingshan Hong"; On the stands, more than 40000 fans waved the red flag and sang in unison. Rhododendron, also known as Yingshan Hong, is the provincial flower of Jiangxi. Every spring, the mountains and fields are covered with azaleas, forming a magnificent sea of flowers. In 1974, the movie "Sparkling Red Star" was released, and the scene of Pan Dongzi's mother singing "Yingshan Hong" before her heroic death was engraved in the memories of millions of viewers. This song has become a classic sung by several generations. When the melody of 'Yingshan Hong' resounds through the 'Ganchao' arena, both inside and outside the screen, people's thoughts seem to be transported back to the era illuminated by the flames of faith. Before the performance, we rehearsed and polished the song 'Yingshan Hong' many times, but when we actually sang it on the court, the feeling was completely different. Watching the red flags bloom like Yingshan Hong in the entire venue, I almost shed tears when I sang the lyrics' Yingshan Hong spreads all over the mountains'. ”During an interview, Yu Siqin, a female vocal member of the choir and a student of the 2023 vocal department at Jinggangshan University, had tears in her eyes. "I didn't expect the live performance to be so stunning, it made me both surprised and proud. Indeed, red songs have vitality in different time and space scenes." In addition to the stirring chorus, the actors also performed a situational interpretation of "Sparkling Red Star". I have seen the character of Pan Dongzi in movies and even played him in kindergarten. I know he is a brave little hero. Today, I want to bring this bravery to everyone, and I hope that the athletes participating in the competition can also dare to fight and fight like the Red Army soldiers. "Chen Yelin, a 10-year-old actor who played Pan Dongzi and a student at Ji'an Normal University Affiliated Primary School, has a childish voice but a firm tone. I was originally here to watch the game and support my hometown team, but I was hit by this performance. ”A young fan held a camera and kept pressing the shutter button. The camera captured a series of red flags and faces singing earnestly. "When I was a child, I used to listen to my grandfather tell red stories. Today, I sang with thousands of people, which is more unforgettable than winning a game." According to the fans present, in addition to the opening song "Yingshan Red", songs such as "Red Star Shines on Me to Fight" and "Singing the Motherland" played on the radio during halftime also attracted the audience to sing in unison. The red land beneath our feet was once the place where revolutionary predecessors fought and shed blood. This land nurtures a spirit of perseverance for our ideals, inspiring us to give our all in the competition and fight for our hometown. ”In the game, players from both the Ji'an and Fuzhou teams showed tenacious fighting spirit and a spirit of unity and cooperation, dedicating themselves to an exciting match. It is truly our 'representative song' of Jiangxi, and I couldn't help but sing out loud while watching the video. 'Ganchao' once again ushered in the moment of 'blood awakening'... When the video of 'Ten thousand people singing' Yingshan Hong 'was uploaded online, netizens in the comment section left comments one after another. It is worth noting that on August 31st, Ganzhou team played against Ji'an team at home, and a similar scene was staged on the field: a segment of the large-scale red cultural and tourism epic stage play "The First Crossing of the Long March" was moved onto the field, and the farewell scene was accompanied by the melody of "Ten Farewell to the Red Army", which attracted many viewers to join in the singing. Some viewers even said that "their eyes got wet while singing". Jiangxi is one of the important birthplaces of the Chinese revolution, carrying the red memories of glorious history. This land has nurtured precious spiritual treasures such as the spirit of Jinggangshan, the spirit of the Soviet Area, and the spirit of the Long March. More than 2960 revolutionary sites and relics have been preserved to this day, and there are 87 national key cultural relics protection units, accounting for about one sixth of the total number of revolutionary cultural relics in the country. It can be called a red museum without walls. In order to integrate red culture into sports events, Jiangxi explored the path of "red culture+Gan Chao" in this year's City Football Super League, making football fields a moving classroom for inheriting red culture. This kind of scene is not uncommon in this year's "Gan Chao" competition: Jiujiang team faces Yingtan team, and the entire audience sings "Sing to the Motherland" in unison; Nanchang team hosted Shangrao team at home, and the fans enthusiastically sang 'We are walking on the road'; The Ganzhou team faced off against the Xinyu team, and the Yudu Long March Source Choir led the singing of the song "Four Crossings of the Chishui River with Extraordinary Soldiers" from the "Long March Song Group"... "Su Chao is very popular, and 'Gan Chao' is very popular." Netizens' comments accurately summarized the characteristics of this year's' Gan Chao '. It is reported that in addition to incorporating red elements into the "Gan Chao" region, Jiangxi Province also relies on rich red cultural resources to create a series of red themed activities: holding the "Revisiting the Red Army Road" hiking activity, allowing participants to follow the marching route of the Red Army and experience the hardships of revolutionary predecessors; Organize a red sports culture exhibition to showcase sports activities and sportsmanship during the revolutionary period.
