I was just an ordinary person, but somehow I ended up dressed as a female celebrity.

Chapter 163 Sings the Praises of "The Young China"

With only a week left before the Spring Festival Gala, Andy Lau finally finished arranging his work and arrived at the Gala rehearsal hall. He even made a special trip to see Ling Xia and express his gratitude for the song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" that she specially commissioned for him.

Ling Xia quickly expressed her gratitude to Andy Lau for his appreciation, otherwise her song might not have been selected by the Spring Festival Gala program team.

......

Time flew by and it was New Year's Eve in China. Every household was brightly lit, and every television was turned on, all broadcasting CCTV-1, waiting to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

As the time drew nearer, at 19:59, the one-minute countdown began.

59 seconds, 58 seconds... 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

The time has come to 20:00 PM sharp, and the Spring Festival Gala is about to begin.

Joyful and festive music emanated from the television, and the screen was filled with red and celebratory images. People followed the camera's view as it pushed open a red door, revealing the scene of the Spring Festival Gala to the public.

This was followed by the opening dance performance, "Welcoming Spring".

Dressed in festive attire, the young girls danced with boundless enthusiasm, celebrating the arrival of the Spring Festival. The camera panned across the audience watching the performance, each person smiling and applauding warmly.

Ling Xia changed into her clothes and sat backstage with many senior artists, watching the live performance that was taking place at the same time.

This was Ling Xia's second appearance on the Spring Festival Gala stage. This time, her song was at the end of the first half, the "Youth" segment.

This Spring Festival Gala is divided into three themes: youth, middle age, and old age. Lingxia is the final song of the youth segment and also serves as a transition to the middle age segment.

The director of the Spring Festival Gala knew immediately after receiving Ling Xia's song that it was the final summary of her youth.

The opening dance performance had ended, and then four people walked in from behind the dancers—the same four hosts as last year. They were giving their opening remarks.

Ling Xia felt as if this year had passed in a lifetime. Coming to the same place again to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, her feelings were different. This time, she was not alone, but there was someone with her, so she was very happy.

I realized that having someone by my side makes me happier. I want to understand the meaning of happiness and the significance of my existence in this world.

This time, she will be collaborating with many young men and women on this song.

......

The host had already announced on stage that Ling Xia would be bringing us "The Young Man's Tale of China." After the host finished the announcement, Ling Xia calmly walked to his performance position.

The area on the stage that had just been lit up was occupied by a group of teenagers, dressed in white short-sleeved shirts and black pants, reciting the poem "Ode to the Young China" together.

"When the youth are wise, the nation is wise."

"When the youth are wealthy, the nation is wealthy."

"A strong youth makes a strong nation."

"A nation is free when its youth are free."

A group of bright and cheerful young boys and girls, dressed in school uniforms, recited lyrics on stage.

A sense of pride welled up in the audience below; everyone was full of youthful vigor.

He immediately began speaking after the students finished reciting the poem.

"The rising sun shines brightly, its path is vast and glorious."

"The river flows out and flows into the ocean."

"A dragon rises from the abyss, its scales and claws flashing."

"The young tiger roars in the valley, and all beasts tremble in fear."

The audience was completely blown away by the song's opening lines. It's a song full of positive energy, perfect for young people. Everyone who heard Ling Xia's lyrics exclaimed in admiration.

Then, the climax of the song arrived.
