Maoshan Haozi is a Han folk song originated in the Maoshan area of Xinghua, Jiangsu. It is a song used by the Maoshan people in the production labor to stimulate emotions and express their feelings. The origin of Maoshan Haozi can be traced back to the time when Qin conquered the six kingdoms and unified the world. In order to consolidate the foundation of the world, Qin Shihuang recruited civilians to build the Great Wall to prevent the invasion of the Huns. It is said that Meng Jiangnu went to Shanhaiguan to find her husband and send him winter clothes. Xinghua labor songs originated in Xinghua Baili Water Town and can be traced back to the Qin Shihuang era. In order to unify China, Qin Shihuang recruited civilians to build the Great Wall. Meng Jiangnu went to the Great Wall to find her husband and send him winter clothes. Seeing the "humming" of the workers, she eliminated fatigue and sought fun. Fortunately, some Maoshan civilians returned home and passed on the humming of the workers when they were building the Great Wall. For thousands of years, the folk oral tradition has been passed down from generation to generation, and the Maoshan call came into being with strong national characteristics and local charm. Because Maoshan is located in a remote area, it was not affected by the warlords' melee. The people of Maoshan mainly engaged in production. During the production season, the call was still heard in the fields. After the "July 7 Marco Polo Bridge Incident", the people in the Maoshan area threw themselves into the anti-Japanese front, and the Maoshan call was depressed. It was not until the liberation of Maoshan in 1944 that the Maoshan call was heard again in the fields and alleys when the Maoshan people sent off the soldiers: "To be a soldier, you must be a New Fourth Army, to protect your home, your country and your people." In 1956, folk singer Zhu Xianglin went to Beijing with the provincial song and dance troupe to participate in the first national music week, and sang in Zhongnanhai. Later, she won the silver medal at the World Youth Festival, recorded it into a record and released it. She was received by Chairman Mao and other central leaders, and Zhu Xianglin also went to North Korea to express her condolences. In 1954, Zhu Xianglin and seven Maoshan folk singers held a party in Shanghai with the French song and dance troupe, singing the Maoshan horn song of "China and North Korea join hands to defeat the ambitious wolf of the US imperialists". The Maoshan horn song has been brilliantly performed to this day. In 1986, folk singer Shi Bin won the first prize in the provincial young farmers' "Spring in the Fields" singer competition with a Maoshan horn song. In 1997, Maoshan Town held the "Maoshan horn song" competition, which was reported by the People's Daily and other news media. In 2005, Lu Aiqin's Maoshan horn song won the first prize in the Jiangsu Water Village Youth Competition. In 2007, on the stage of CCTV's "Happy China Tour Charming Taizhou", Lu Aiqin and three other Maoshan folk singers opened their voices and played the Maoshan horn song, performing on the same stage with the famous Taiwanese singer Jay Chou and the famous CCTV host Dong Qing, winning warm applause from the audience. In 2007, it won the silver medal in the Jiangsu Province "New Works of Mass Literature" Competition. Then "Maoshan Haozi" participated in the opening ceremony of the third Jiangsu Cultural Relics Festival and received high praise from provincial leaders. The Maoshan Haozi campus event was very successful. The 39 tunes of Maoshan Haozi were compiled and printed into a book and sung by the majority of middle and primary school students in Xinghua City, so that Maoshan Haozi can be passed down from generation to generation. Maoshan Town also holds a Maoshan Haozi singing competition every year to continuously improve the singing level. The "Maoshan Haozi" competition held in 1997 was reported by the People's Daily and other news media. As a folk song, "Maoshan Haozi" has a high artistic taste and can be called a wonder of national music in Jiangsu folk songs. With its soothing and long melody, bright and powerful music rhythm, fast and slow free singing speed, and well-organized singing form, it has formed a unique folk song style with high and low coordination and self-singing. From the perspective of the form of labor, Maoshan haozi can be divided into water-carrying haozi, rice-planting haozi, weeding haozi, carrying haozi, milling haozi, and threshing haozi. From the perspective of musical structure, it can be divided into long haozi and short haozi. According to people's gender and division of labor, there are haozi for young and middle-aged men, such as water-carrying haozi and carrying haozi, which are characterized by roughness, boldness, rapidity and forcefulness; there are haozi for young and middle-aged women, such as rice-planting haozi and weeding haozi, which are characterized by crispness, sweetness, gentleness and melodiousness. In terms of singing style, the Maoshan people play haozi in a steady manner, with powerful pronunciation, clear pronunciation and flexibility, which truly reflects the characteristics of the national singing method. Maoshan haozi has different tunes in different farm work, most of which are self-composed and sung. Later, after being processed and polished by scholars in the Maoshan area, the melody became more and more perfect, and the curtains became more and more abundant. Some of them sang about ancient figures of loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness, some sang about patriotic and cherishing heroic warriors, some sang about the leisurely life of farmers in all seasons, and some expressed the pure love between men and women. During the busy farming season, the fields in the Maoshan area were full of loud calls and laughter. From 1953 to 1959, singers who played Maoshan calls well often went to Shanghai and Nanjing to participate in folk song performances and competitions. Zhu Xianglin, a famous singer from Maoshan, once went to North Korea with the Jiangsu Provincial Song and Dance Troupe to visit the Chinese People's Volunteer Army. In North Korea, she sang the Maoshan call "China and North Korea work together to defeat the American ambition wolf", which was warmly praised by the officers and soldiers. In September 1956, Zhu Xianglin went to Beijing with the Jiangsu Provincial Song and Dance Troupe to participate in the National Music Week, and sang "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" and other "Maoshan Haozi" in Zhongnanhai. The moving and melodious singing style was recorded and released as a record. Maoshan Haozi conveys emotions and ideals. Before liberation, it served the revolutionary struggle; after liberation, it served major historical events, such as land reform, collectivization, and 1; since the reform and opening up, it has focused on praising the economic take-off and the new life of farmers. The specific singing method is one person leading the singing and everyone responding. The passionate singing blends harmoniously with the rhythm of labor, and the local accent and local feelings intersect with people's simple emotional wishes, which has the effect of regulating emotions and adding motivation.
