At the commemorative conference held on the morning of September 3, four warm songs were impressive. In Tiananmen Square, singing was used to create a solemn atmosphere for the conference and display the historical picture of the War of Resistance against Japan in artistic language. How were these four songs chosen? Why choose these songs?

Central Taiwan reporter interviewed Xiao Xiangrong, deputy director of the Plaza Activity Department of the Memorial Conference Service and Guarantee and Plaza Activity Command, bringing an exclusive reveal.

Xiao Xiangrong said that in the eight minutes of the warm field, it must reflect the starting point of the anti-Japanese war and the longest battle time, the main battlefield in the East and the leadership of the Party, and the national war of resistance. He opened his mouth to let the audience remember the starting point of the anti-Japanese war, so he found the song "On the Songhua River".

Xiao Xiangrong: This song is difficult to sing because its sadness outweighs its power, and we hope it has power. At first it was very low, and the first sentence was particularly touching, which was called "My Home", which reflected the sense of ceremony in the entire venue. When the first time I wrote this song, the members of the choir burst into tears, singing once and crying once. We think that the world should remember the day of September 18 on September 3, 2025, repeating the day of September 18 constantly, turning into a roar, and the entire arrangement created a climax.

Xiao Xiangrong: After that, when the red sun shines throughout the east, he went to "On the Taihang Mountains". The opening ceremony used a group of songs to splice the two songs together to form a very complete narrative.

Xiao Xiangrong: Next is "Defending the Yellow River", which represents the determination of the whole nation to fight against the war. We feel that the last song is missing a song that can last for 80 years. After thinking about it, we think that "There is no New China without the Communist Party" can be continued throughout. Tone and emotion can better represent the whole of China, playing a warm and heart-warming role. The audience can also catchy and interact with the audience, and can join the chorus, truly reflecting the grand and solemnity of the commemorative conference before the beginning.
