China News Network Jinhua, May 5 Question: Cultural Tourism Observation: Why can Shi Guangnan's hometown become a "field of hope"?

Reporter Wang inscribed

"In our hometown, in the fields of hope, cooking smoke wafts on newly built houses, and small rivers flow beside beautiful villages..." Many people do not know that Shi Guangnan, the author of this popular song, is a native of Jinhua, Zhejiang.

Shi Guangnan, whose ancestral home is Jindong District, Jinhua City, is known as the "Singer of the Times" and is a new generation of musicians trained by China itself after the founding of New China. On December 2018, 12, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council awarded Shi Guangnan the title of "Reform Pioneer", awarded the "Reform Pioneer" medal, and was awarded the "Musician Who Composes the Hymn of Reform and Opening Up".

In recent years, in order to commemorate Shi Guangnan, Jindong District has successively built Shi Guangnan Music Square and Shi Guangnan Concert Hall, established Shi Guangnan Farmers' Choir, Children's Choir and other cultural and artistic groups, and held Shi Guangnan New Year Concert, Music Theme Month, Music Festival and other activities.

As the hometown of Shi Guangnan, Dongye Village is a microcosm of Jindong District polishing the golden business card of "Shi Guangnan", a cultural celebrity, and promoting the rapid integration and development of "cultural tourism". Since last year, with the unremitting efforts of departments at all levels, many landmark projects such as "Zhejiang Civil Construction Member Home" and "Jintian Sharing" in Dongye Village have been implemented, adding new momentum to rural revitalization.

Among them, Jindong District focuses on the theme of "Prosperity with One Heart and Overseas Chinese to Build Merit", relying on the rich ecological and cultural tourism resources of Dongye Village and the humanistic resources of Shi Fuliang Shi Guangnan's former residence, focusing on musical elements, creating the original forest round music homestay, linking the local agricultural cultural tourism industry projects, effectively filling the gap in Yuandong Township in terms of "food" and "housing" at the middle and high-end levels, and further strengthening the driving role of Longtou Village, bringing new elements such as youth, fashion and vitality to the ancient mountain township.

"So, why did you choose to set up a music-themed homestay in Dongye Village?" The reporter asked.

Lu Senjun, the person in charge of the original Senqu Music B&B, said. He told reporters that as a member of the Jinhua Municipal Party Committee of the Democratic Construction Association, his initial understanding of Dongye Village stopped at the history of the Democratic Construction Association and the conversations of its members, and at that time he only knew that Dongye Village was the hometown of Shi Fuliang, the ancestor of the Democratic Construction Association.

After entering Toba Village for the first time, he had the idea of building Toba. Recalling the scene at that time, Lu Senjun bluntly said, "At that time, the village was mainly pig farming, sewage was everywhere, smelly and dry, and the road was difficult to walk. ”

In his opinion, the future development of Dongye Village should be like Shi Guangnan's song, "Our future, in the field of hope, people live under the bright sun, live in people's labor and change..."

Therefore, after learning of the idea of the Jinhua Municipal Committee of the Democratic Construction Association to build the Zhejiang Democratic Construction Member Home in Dongye in the form of collective fundraising, Lu Senjun offered to contribute to the construction alone.

For him, Dongye Village not only carries his love and reverence for the civil construction and Jinhua cultural celebrities, but also places his expectations on the future development of the village. "If my career can make Toha Village a better place, it will be a very happy thing."

As for why it is a music-themed homestay, Lu Senjun explained that Dongye Village is the hometown of "people's musician" Shi Guangnan, music is the common language of mankind, he hopes to use the celebrity effect, with the help of music to increase the tourism elements of the format, attract tourists and music lovers from all over Zhejiang Province and even all over the country to Dongye Village, understand Dongye Village, and develop Dongye Village. And music-themed homestays are such a good medium.

So, in September 2022, Hara Sen Yuanqu Music B&B took root in Dongye Village.

At the same time, the "concerto" for rural revitalization, based on the Hara Mori Waltz Music B&B, began to play more and more in Higashiba Village. For example, at the end of March this year, "China Music Xinxing", a platform with rich experience in holding music competitions in China, "electrocuted" Dongye Village, and settled the "China Music Circle Xinxing TV Column Excellent Program Audition Base" in Yuansen Yuanqu Music B&B.

It is understood that the large-scale music competition base settled in Dongye Village, which is just a small step for Lu Senjun to polish the "Shi Guangnan Cultural Brand" and help promote the rural revitalization of Dongye Village and achieve common prosperity through the medium of the original Sen Yuanqu Music Homestay.

He said that in the past, there were not many tourists in Dongye Village, except for the three times of the year: the peach blossom festival, the white peach harvest and the orange harvest. He hopes to give full play to the positive role of "Village Overseas Chinese House", and on the basis of the original Sen Yuanqu Music B&B, introduce music health care, music camping, music production and other projects into Dongye, and build Dongye Village into the first village of Chinese music, making it a "field of hope" for music creators and villagers to become rich.

At present, Jindong is relying on rich eco-cultural tourism resources and overseas Chinese resources to build rural overseas Chinese houses, highlight overseas Chinese elements such as overseas Chinese capital, overseas Chinese charm, overseas Chinese taste, overseas Chinese products, overseas Chinese love, etc., help overseas Chinese businessmen and overseas Chinese enterprises to invest and develop by matching resources, and drive the development of local service industries and industrial chain support.

In order to build a new "overseas Chinese" beam, from April 4 to May 30, the first New Era Vibrant Overseas Chinese Hometown City Conference was held in Jindong. The conference was guided by China News Service and the United Front Work Department of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the CPC (Provincial Overseas Chinese Affairs Office), hosted by the Jinhua Municipal CPC Committee, Jinhua Municipal People's Government, Zhejiang Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, China News, China Overseas Chinese Network, China News Service Zhejiang Branch, World Chinese Media Cooperation Alliance, and organized by the United Front Work Department of the Jinhua Municipal CPC Committee, the Jindong District CPC Committee of Jinhua City, and the Jindong District People's Government of Jinhua City.
