performs for three or four oil workers, which makes her very excited

Bian Guirong said: "In the drilling in Daqing, there were only accordion accompaniment. In this case, the songs were more excited and friendly, and those songs also sang the voices of oil workers. Before the performance in Shaoguo Town, Nong'an County, they first did farm work in the ridges and ditches, and then sang to the farmers' friends in the fields. Their performance was rewarded with the warmest applause."
"At that time, no matter where you performed, there was always applause, and there would always be a group of people asking you to sign. Sometimes it took more than half an hour to sign, and your hands would tremble constantly. The audience was very enthusiastic, and even if they got on the car, they would not be willing to let you go." Bian Guirong recalled.

When the revolutionary patriots walked on the execution ground and fell in love with them, they expressed their feelings in different ways. "
I don't have a good understanding of the work, and I can't handle it well, so the teacher taught it little by little. At that time, the director, commander, and recording had to be done in one go, and the time and picture requirements were matched, in order to save film, so each link was very detailed.
