Pan Lu, an accordion player from the People's Liberation Army Band, looked particularly excited as he watched the highly designed buildings such as the Brazilian Presidential Palace, Parliament Building, and Museum passing by the car window. He couldn't see the exhaustion of flying continuously for nearly 30 hours. She and seven other members of the military music performance team, dressed in military band uniforms, are preparing for a special "military music flash mob" performance. This is one of the activities organized by the Political Work Department of the Central Military Commission in Brazil for the China Military Culture Week, and also the first time that the People's Liberation Army military band has performed in a foreign community. Previously, when performing military music abroad, it was for the audience who came voluntarily. Today, it's different. We go to communities abroad to perform for ordinary people Not long after returning from the "Spas Bell Tower" International Military Music Festival in Russia, Panlu said, "One is the 'audience' and the other is the 'people', it feels very different." At 10 am, the largest small commodity market in South America - Bras í lia Import and Export Small Commodity Wholesale and Retail Market - was crowded with people, some wholesale goods here, some ordinary shopping here, and nearby residents walking over to eat... But no one noticed that a group of Chinese musicians from more than 18000 kilometers away were taking out their instruments in a corner, about to start a unique auditory feast. Trumpet player Guo Sixiao first walked into the crowd, and when the soft tone of the trumpet sounded, it seemed to effectively penetrate the thick noise in the market, quickly attracting people to stop and look sideways. When the team members walked into the market while playing, the crowd on both sides automatically cleared a passage; After the military music performance team finished playing a song and stopped, the crowd automatically surrounded, forming a "stage" without a sense of distance. Lin Xiuping, a Chinese shop owner from Wenzhou, Zhejiang, told reporters that this market has been established for more than 20 years and has never seen any music performances. He never expected that the first performance would be from his motherland, let alone a band from the People's Liberation Army. I have been in Brazil for 25 years now, and for the first time, I have been so directly moved by my country! Especially when I heard 'Sing to the Motherland', it was really great! The strength of our motherland, no matter how far away, we Chinese can feel it Lin Xiuping said to the reporter with red eyes. When familiar local music such as "Brazilian Watercolor Painting" and "Ipanema's Girl" played, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax. Passionate and unrestrained Brazilian people walked into the center of the "stage", dancing Brazilian style samba dance to the rhythm, and even hummed songs involuntarily. I was just browsing around today, but suddenly I was attracted to this performance. I love it so much Resident Lusio, who lives nearby, said it was regrettable that his girlfriend Andressa couldn't come to watch such a wonderful performance on site, so he immediately dialed a video call and conducted an "exclusive live broadcast" for her point-to-point. Lusio's actions were also noticed by the members of the military music team. Suona player Zhang Ziyong said that he had long noticed someone leaning against a pillar holding a phone to shoot, one song after another, and occasionally communicating excitedly with the people on the phone. Although we don't know each other, the transmission of this emotion is clearly felt by both of us, regardless of borders Zhang Ziyong said that later on, he even came over to shake hands with us and didn't let go for a long time. When two hands that cross the ends of the earth tightly grip each other, the performance takes on a special meaning. Afterwards, the reporter asked Lusio if he knew anything about China? He admitted that he didn't know much about China, and even wasn't very clear about its specific location, but this performance told him that China is open and friendly, which means "amigo" (friend). 'amigo' is also a high-frequency word used during the foreign affairs meeting that day. Lieutenant General Younes, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Brazilian Navy, quoted the Chinese proverb, "It's not a pleasure to have friends coming from afar". Major General Mao Naiguo, head of the International Communication Delegation of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and director of the Propaganda Bureau of the Political Work Department of the Central Military Commission, responded, "If there is a bosom friend in the sea, the distance is like a neighbor."
