A golden glow had filled the entire stage.
It was so beautiful that it left people breathless at the sight. Everyone was gripped by what they were seeing!
When the dance was halfway in, the dancers moved into a staggered position and showed themselves one by one. It was at this mont that the entire world’s Chinese population saw each and every one of their faces clearly!
Nervous.
Serious.
ticulous.
The lead dancer was a girl nad Sun Ye. She was 22 years old and a native of Hebei. She was born deaf and mute. Her biggest dream was to get onto the stage of the Spring Festival Gala one day.
Dad.
Mom.

Can you see ?

Behind her, the second girl’s na was Liu ii. She was 20 years old and a native of Anhui. She was also born deaf and mute. Her biggest dream was for technology to advance enough so that she could overco her handicap one day and have a chance at hearing the sounds of this world just like any normal person could.
The third girl’s na was Hu Lijuan. She was 19 years old and from Tianjin. She didn’t have any dreams. She just enjoyed dancing and hoped that she could keep dancing with everyone even after she turned 30, 40, 50. This was what she felt happiest doing.
The fourth girl was nad Zhao Qi. She was 21 years old and from Shaanxi. Her greatest dream was to et her Prince Charming one day so that she could have a grand wedding and be happily married to him.
The fifth girl was Ci Xi-an.
The sixth girl was Wu Shengnan.
The seventh girl was Jia Fang.
…
In a village.
Half of the village’s residents had gathered together.
“It’s Little Ye!”
“My daughter!”
“That’s my daughter!”
A middle-aged woman pointed at the television in tears.
…
In a township.
Several young people were dumbfounded.
“That’s!”
“It’s Liu ii!”
“It’s Liu ii from the dance class next to ours those years ago!”
“It really is her!”
“Sh-She went to the Spring Festival Gala?”
…
In a city.
“Holy shit!”
“Ah!”
“Isn’t that Zhao Qi?”
“What’s she doing at the Spring Festival Gala?”
…
At a provincial capital.
“Old Li, Old Li, quickly co and have a look!”
“What’s the matter?”
“It’s Hu Lijuan!”
“Hu Lijuan?”
“Lijuan was a student of mine! Have you forgotten?”
“Ah! I rember now! W-Why are you crying?”
“I’m so happy for her! So happy for her!”
…
At Old Wu’s parents’ house.
Li Qinqin wiped the tears off her face. “That was so good.”
Wu Changhe was also convinced. “This Little Ye is really capable.”
Fat Sis said rather stunned, “All of this was choreographed by Zhang’er?”
Li Qinqin nodded.
Wu Mo cried out, “My Brother Zhang is amazing!”
Fat Sis gave him a look. “Don’t you be calling him what you like. You should be addressing him as Uncle-in-law.”
…
On Weibo.
The controversy from before?
The criticism from before?
All of that had disappeared at this mont!
“I have to apologize.”
“ too!”
“Damn, I’ll have to take back what I said before!”
“Who says that the deaf and mute don’t know how to dance?! The deaf-mute dance troupe would drag down the act quality of the Spring Festival Gala? Bull fucking shit! This dance will surely be recorded in the annals of history!”
“Agreed, this is fantastic!”
“Honestly speaking, I’ve never seen such an amazing dance since the ti I was born!”
“How much effort did these girls have to put in before they could achieve such a level of skill!?”
“I’m so touched. This dance is so much more stunning than ‘Flying Apsaras!'”
“That’s right. ‘Flying Apsaras’ is a performance that stuns us with its technical skill. anwhile, this ‘Thousand-Hand Guanyin’ touches us on an emotional level! So a dance can even be perford in this way!”
“Who choreographed this dance?! It’s so cool!”
“Zhang Ye!”
“Yes, everything was planned by him.”
“How did he co up with such a creative idea!”
“Looking around in all of the past Spring Festival Galas. No other dance can be ntioned in the sa breath as this ‘Thousand-Hand Guanyin’ performance!”
“I’m crying.”
“ too, that was so touching!”
“It must’ve been really difficult for these girls!”
“I suddenly feel like I’ve been purified.”
“Thank you, girls. I’ll never forget this dance as long as I live!”
“I was surprised, I laughed, and I got touched. This year’s Spring Festival Gala is truly miraculous!”
“Yeah, so the Spring Festival Gala can even be made in this way!”
…
The dance had ended.
The act was over.
However, everyone was still unable to calm down after a very long ti.
The applause at the venue was uproarious and lasted for a long ti without stopping.
In the audience, Qi Xiaoi, who was sitting in the front row, was extrely proud. She had never been extroverted, but at this mont, she was sitting ramrod straight.
Rumors.
Criticism.
Strange gazes.
Doubtful looks.
From the ti she was born, she had been through so much. Especially at the ti the Spring Festival Gala’s program list was announced, she and the children had to put up with a trendous amount of stress. It was so overwhelming that they were all worn out by it and could hardly breathe. But they endured it and clenched their teeth while training day and night. They were physically disadvantaged to begin with but had used their hard work to make up for it. They knew that they could do anything that normal people could do. If normal people could perform this dance, then they could do it too. In fact, they wanted to do it even better!
The tears that Qi Xiaoi had been holding back started rolling down her cheeks!
All these years of persistence!
All these years of waiting!
All these years of blood and sweat!
Today, they’ve finally shown the world their dancing!
Today, they were blooming in glory!
…
On the stage.
Singing 1 rang out.
The girls and teacher from the China National Ethnic Song and Dance Ensemble’s deaf-mute dance troupe had realized their dreams on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Similarly, two laborer brothers had co to fulfill theirs.
“I still rember the spring of many years back.
“At the ti, I still hadn’t cut off my long hair.
“I was broke and didn’t know her care.
“A ho without water or any snacks.
“Still, I was very happy back then.
“Even with just a broken guitar to my na.
“On the streets, under the bridges, and in the fields,
“Singing those songs that no one cared about.
“If there cos a day I am helpless and old.
“Please rember / in the stories we told.
“If there cos a day I quietly go.
“Please bury in / the springti glow.”
Dreams: this word always held an eternal charm.
The two of them did not have superb singing skills, nor did they have handso faces. They also did not have a stage presence like the big na celebrities, but their rugged voices with broad ranges was a constant presence as it told everyone their story. This was a story related to their dreams.
…
In the countryside.
Their coworkers were cheering.
“They’re here!”
“It’s them!”
“Sweetums, did you see that? That is my work buddy!”
“They’re doing us laborers really proud!”
“Keep it up!”
“Keep it up!”
…
Online.
“This is great!”
“This song is so well-written!”
“Is it another song of Zhang Ye’s?”
“This song hit right in the feels!”
“Only the two of them can sing a song like that!”
“Why do I feel so moved listening to this? I get the feeling that they’re singing even better than the celebrities!”
…
This song, “Spring Days,” and this pair of laborer brothers.
Their singing had moved everyone in the audience!
Today, they were blooming in glory!
The Spring Festival Gala kept hitting a new high, wave after wave!
