Official Ladder [Grassroots Civil Servants]

Chapter 706 The Song of Xi'an People

In the afternoon, Mingyu wanted to go to the clock tower to play, and the family happily went there.

After getting on the subway, Wang Hongtao said, "Mengyao, in a few years, Chang'an's subway network will extend in all directions, which is unique in the whole country."

Liu Mengyao smiled and said, "Ang, you are so old. I read the news that 17 subway lines are under construction at the same time. Do you have so much money?"

"You don't understand this. As long as the operation is proper, you can still make some money, so the financing of subway construction is less difficult than other infrastructure construction."

Liu Mengyao seemed to understand but said: "Oh, it's better to get a loan for a project that can make money!"

"You're right to understand that, but our original intention of constructing the subway is not to make money."

Although the two spoke very quietly, they were still heard by the people next to them, and they began to express their knowledge about the subway.

After a while, everyone began to expect that the addition of 17 subway lines would greatly improve the traffic situation in Chang'an.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man said to Wang Hongtao: "Excuse me, are you Secretary Wang Hongtao?"

Now that he was recognized, Wang Hongtao admitted it openly.

In an instant, the enthusiasm of the citizens was ignited, and everyone greeted Wang Hongtao one after another. After a while, passengers from other carriages crowded over, and someone asked, "Secretary Wang, you are also squeezing the subway!"

Wang Hongtao said with a smile: "The subway is the most punctual and convenient means of urban transportation. Of course I will be 'crowded', but the government will let everyone try not to be 'crowded'!"

Another person asked: "Secretary Wang, will we implement free medical care in Chang'an?"

Wang Hongtao continued to answer: "Not for the time being, we can't go our own way, we want the whole country to 'go in unison', but please rest assured, let our municipal party committee and municipal government earn more money and increase everyone's reimbursement ratio. Yes, you can refer to Yinzhou."

There were bursts of cheers and applause in the carriage!Many tourists from other places thought that there was a celebrity or Internet celebrity in the subway, but they didn’t expect to squeeze in to take a look. After everyone said it, it turned out to be the secretary of the Internet celebrity city party committee. It is really insightful to explain the policy to everyone. This line!

A woman asked: "Secretary Wang, if there is a problem, can we report it to you? My family has invested in an unfinished building, and I am almost dying of worry!"

Wang Hongtao said with a smile: "I remember that I posted my personal email address at the city's business environment conference. You can find it. If you have any questions, you can report to me at any time. A staff member will send the problem screening to me. We must solve the problem for everyone. As for the unfinished buildings you mentioned, there are indeed many unfinished buildings in Chang’an. Please rest assured that this is the focus of the municipal party committee’s next rectification. I promise that within a year, the Chang’an Municipal Party Committee and the city government will solve all unfinished buildings. For the building issue, everyone must be satisfied, how about it?"

The man excitedly said: "Secretary Wang, I believe in you, and we all believe in you!"

After a while, when we arrived at Zhonglou Station, Wang Hongtao was about to get off the bus, so he said to everyone: "Remember my mailbox, you can report any problems, please rest assured, I will see them, and I will definitely solve them for you!"

Seeing the back of Wang Hongtao's departure, both locals and foreigners gave thumbs up, and they all commented that such an official is a good official!

When passing by the underground passage in the south gate, I saw a young wandering singer holding a guitar, playing and singing here.As if in a lifetime, Wang Hongtao had a very familiar feeling, so he stopped and put a few coins into the guitar box in front of the singer, which was regarded as a kind of encouragement and appreciation to him.

After singing a song, Wang Hongtao asked, "It's Chinese New Year, don't you go home?"

"I don't have a home." The singer raised his head while playing the guitar, and replied coldly, almost making Wang Hongtao choke.

"How long do you perform here every day?"

The singer replied: "There are three of us in total, and the three of us take turns to perform every day, starting from 10 am to around 10 pm, at least 10 hours a day."

"It's been a long time, how long have you been here?"

"10 years!"

"Is the daily income okay?"

The singer shook her head, expressing her reluctance to answer the question.

When leaving, Wang Hongtao said: It is not easy to persist for 10 years, I wish your dreams come true!

Just after leaving the bell tower, there was another homeless singer at the subway entrance, singing while playing the guitar. Many passers-by stopped, took pictures and sent them to Moments, or listened to the song carefully, or "rewarded" in the box placed on the ground.

Being wandering singers in the city, everyone has their own "ideals", some are for survival, some are for the pursuit of a real art, and some are for experiencing an alternative life.

Chang'an has a rich ancient and modern culture, especially for artists and cultural figures. Nowadays, Chang'an's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more people like to travel to Chang'an. Some wandering singers also aim at Chang'an, a tourist hotspot. I chose to sell and sing on the streets of Chang'an to make money, but there are many unknown bitterness behind the street singing. A few singers can earn four to five hundred a night, and more people may not earn a hundred a night.

The inside and outside of the south gate and the bell tower have always been the stage for wandering singers from all walks of life. Every day when dusk falls, many wandering singers or individuals or teams will start playing and singing.Various forms of wandering music are staged in turn, and it has even become a holy place for many netizens to check in. There are also many wandering singers who have become popular on the short video platform.

However, due to the instruments they use and their own performance skills, wandering singers have different levels of singing.Some singers may work hard all night, but they can only be rewarded with tens of yuan by the audience.

But I have to say that it can add a lot of color and different feelings to the city.

When we arrived at the bell tower, it seemed that a band was surrounded by hundreds of people, and the whole family also went to join in the fun.

As the music comes to mind, the very familiar singing voice comes to mind: there is a city that is hard to let go, there is a kind of nostalgia, it is called once, there is a melody that sings at the top of its voice, in its center people call it Drum Tower and Bell Tower, Whoever left the impression of Chang'an on the loess high slope, come and sing a song of our Chang'an people with me!

Under the city wall of Chang'an people is the train of Chang'an people

No matter where Chang'an people go, they can't help but eat paomo

The tall buildings of Chang'an Building are connected one by one

In the hearts of Chang'an people, this is the song of Chang'an people

Under the city wall of Chang'an people is the train of Chang'an people

No matter where Chang'an people go, they can't help but eat paomo

The tall buildings of Chang'an Building are one after another

In the hearts of Chang'an people, this is the song of Chang'an people

The eloquent singing made everyone intoxicated, and when the climax came one after another, the audience hummed along, including Wang Hongtao's family. The atmosphere was very enthusiastic.

The most disappointing thing came, when a few urban management officers came over and shouted loudly, squeezed in and said to the performers: "What are you doing, look what has become of the road? Move away quickly!" After finishing speaking, several urban management officers directly Get your hands on the instrument.

The band may have realized that there were too many onlookers, which affected the normal passage of passers-by, and hurriedly explained to the city management that they would change places immediately.

But the city management didn’t listen and told them to go to the team to deal with it, and insisted on confiscating the performance equipment.

After a while, the band and the urban management became more entangled, vowing to protect the guy who was eating, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

Wang Hongtao was very angry. Such a good atmosphere, such a good song, so many foreign tourists, and such a good promotional opportunity were ruined by the city management!

This "Song of Chang'an People" has a great influence on Chang'an. Wang Hongtao even believes that the effect is better than the government spending tens of millions or hundreds of millions of publicity funds every year!

Who would have thought that along with a "Song of Chang'an People", the ancient capital Chang'an would become a city of "Internet celebrities".Every day, tourists from all over the country come here, looking for the landmarks in the lyrics one by one, and sketching out their own Chang'an.

Many people "fall in love with a city because of a song", and many cities have become tourist destinations in people's hearts because of a song.A good song becomes the best "spokesman" of a city.With the spread of the Internet, more and more city "theme songs" with high popularity have begun to act as "folk messengers" for the city's external publicity and become a new business card of the city.

This is exactly the case with the Internet celebrity song "Song of Chang'an People". Chang'an's Drum Tower and Bell Tower, city walls, trains, high-rise buildings, steamed buns, etc. have all been written into the lyrics.The vivid and specific images not only reflect the characteristics of the "ancient capital" of Chang'an, but also show the new look of Chang'an. It is believed that "only Chang'an people and people who have lived in Chang'an understand", and sing the appearance of Chang'an in the eyes of Chang'an people. , the affection for hometown contained in the singing with "local accent" not only evokes the nostalgia of Chang'an people, but also makes everyone have emotional resonance.On the Douyin and Kuaishou video platforms, this song has also received likes from foreign netizens, and the promotion has been carried out abroad, attracting countless foreigners to come to Chang'an for tourism and consumption. It can be said that the value and significance of this song are extremely high. It must be vigorously promoted, and this band has a solid foundation in performance, and the live effect is very good. It must be strongly supported and even admired. Chang'an cannot smash its own brand.

Wang Hongtao stepped forward, stopped the city management officers who were enforcing the law, and said, "Pay attention to your image and see how many tourists there are!"

An urban management officer who was moving a musical instrument said brazenly: "Where did the police from the Pacific come out—the police are lenient! Didn't you see them blocking the way? Go away and don't interfere with our law enforcement!"

As soon as the words fell, the urban management officer saw his colleagues staring wide-eyed at the nosy person in front of him, and they all showed disbelief, like a group of students who made a mistake and stood there upright!

Take a closer look, why is it so familiar?After taking a closer look, the urban management is so cool, my god!It's Wang Hongtao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee!What the hell did I just say?In Chang'an, isn't he the policeman of the Pacific Ocean, who can take care of whatever he wants?
