　　My name is (Tong Badema), a singer from Wulan Muqi, Keyouqian Banner.

I have been engaged in the performance (work) of Wulan Muqi for 12 years. It can be said that I have traveled to every place in Keyouqianqi, and there must be eight or nine hundred performances.

Because when I was a child, my father would often play the Sihu at home, and my mother would sing along with the sound of the piano. That is to say, under the influence of my parents, I also fell in love with music. Later, I was fortunate enough to become a Wulan Muqi actor.

　　[Commentary] Tong Badema, who joined the Wulan Muqi team, left many special performance memories.

One time when I went to the countryside for a performance, an aunt in the village wanted to watch the show very much, but her legs and feet were inconvenient.

The Wulan Muqi team went to her home to perform. Tong Badema sang a song "Mother". The aunt who heard the song was moved to tears, and Tong Badema also finished the song with tears in her eyes. .

　　[Commentary] Tong Badema told reporters that her lover is also an actor of Wulan Muqi. In work and life, the two help and support each other.

Under the influence of the duo, their son also developed a strong interest in music.

　　My mom and dad were on show most of the time and it was amazing.

I have been learning matouqin from my father since I was a child. The first song my mother taught me was "The Sun That Rises on the Prairie Does Not Set".

　　[Live sound] "The Sun That Never Sets on the Grassland"

　　White clouds floated in the blue sky, and horses ran under the white clouds.

The whip rang in all directions, and the birds flew in unison.

The sun that never sets on the prairie.

　　[Commentary] Bao Saina told reporters that when he taught his son this song, it was not only because the song was about his hometown, but he also hoped to tell his son what the spirit of Wulan Muqi was through his own actions.

　　When we usually go to the countryside to perform, we often encounter rain and snow. We are also very moved to see the audience refuse to leave for a long time in the wind and rain.

　　[Commentary] Bao Saina and Tong Badema told reporters that they are musicians on the grassland, but the identity of Wulan Muqi makes them proud. In the future, they hope that their son can join the Wulan Muqi team. A family of three "Prairie musicians" together to bring joy to people.

　　[Explanation] The reporter learned that there are currently 75 Wulan Muqi teams in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, with 3,500 members.

From the grasslands to the Gobi, from the cold winter to the scorching heat, the Ulan Muqi team performs more than 8,000 performances every year, playing an important role in the public cultural service system in the grass-roots farming and pastoral areas.
