At the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games, Chen Tianjia sang "Jasmine".

Chen Tianjia, a 5-year-old girl from China, went to Athens to attend the closing ceremony of the 2004 Olympic Games with a jar of fried sauce and a catty of dried noodles. Under the attention of the audience all over the world, she sang Jasmine in a crisp childlike voice.

Teacher: Little girls are bold and can bear hardships.

This is an ordinary little girl in Beijing Blue Sky Yufeng Kindergarten. As for why she was selected for the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, her teacher Liu Hongmei said that Chen Tianjia is a little girl with great personality, "bold, hardworking and outspoken."

What makes Liu Hongmei feel interesting is that Chen Tianjia seldom cries. Sometimes the rehearsal is very hard. When other children are too tired to cry, Chen Tianjia still smiles. A little boy didn't eat according to the nutrition recipe set by the teacher. He ate three cakes in a row for breakfast, and other children saw it, but only Chen Tianjia immediately said to him, "You ate three cakes in a row!"

Father: Zhang Yimou personally interviewed Tianjia.

Chen Weiguo said that one morning in June, Zhang Yimou, the director of the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, had an interview in Qinglan Building. At that time, Chen Tianjia was still in class, and the kindergarten informed him to sing Jasmine during the interview. Chen Weiguo said that Chen Tianjia could only sing one sentence at that time: "What a beautiful jasmine." So Chen Weiguo quickly taught Chen Tianjia to sing at noon. After teaching all noon, when it came to the interview, Chen Tianjia couldn't sing again.

Chen Weiguo said that at that time, Chen Tianjia said to the interview teacher: "I can't sing Jasmine, let me dance for you!" So Chen Tianjia danced and sang "Outing", which she learned from kindergarten. Because the dance was short, she danced three times in a row.

After coming out, Chen Tianjia told his father, "Dada (Beijing dialect, uncle's meaning) said that I danced well." Dad asked which "big", and Chen Tianjia said the older one. Later, I learned that "big" was Zhang Yimou. When all the children had left, a teacher stopped Chen Tianjia and said that he wanted to take some photos. At that time, Chen Weiguo felt that her daughter would be chosen.

A week later, an executive director informed Chen Weiguo: "Your daughter has been selected, and she is going to Athens to prepare for training." After that, Chen Tianjia followed the rehearsal team to Beijing Sport University, Olympic Sports Center and other places for rehearsal.

Father: My daughter sings well when there is no rehearsal.

Chen Weiguo said, after all, her daughter is still too young, and she still doesn't quite understand that going there is to win glory for her country. On the night before leaving for Athens, Chen Weiguo said to her daughter, "You should sing well then, and we are all waiting to see you." Chen Tianjia said, "I will try."

In the early morning of August 30, when the colored strips at the closing ceremony were suddenly lifted off, the daughter carrying the red lantern was startled. "At that time, my heart was also shaking. I didn't have this when I rehearsed here." Chen Weiguo said, "My daughter is a little nervous. She sings well when there is no rehearsal, but the key is still right."

Yesterday, Chen Weiguo said on the phone, "My daughter will come back tomorrow." As he spoke, his voice choked a little. "My daughter said that she only wanted to drink yogurt when she came back."

At the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games, Chen Tianjia sang "Jasmine".

Chen Tianjia, Jackie Chan, Liu Huan, Emil Wakin Chau, Wang Leehom, Wu Kequn and others participated in the song "Welcome to Beijing" and recorded the MV on the 0/00 countdown to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

1998 Chen Tianjia was born in this winter, and her arrival brought more joy to her family.

In 2000, Xiaotian Jia, who was two and a half years old, began to live in a boarding house, boarding Blue Sky Yufeng Kindergarten. Then I began to learn dance.

Selected by Zhang Yimou in 2004, she stood at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games and let the China folk song Jasmine float over the birthplace of the Olympic Games with pure children's voice. That night, hundreds of millions of people got to know this little girl who was startled by the sudden sound of fireworks.

I studied in Beijing primary school in 2006.

When Chen Tianjia came quietly holding her mother's hand in a white down jacket, I recognized the little girl who was standing on the big lantern at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games, singing Jasmine, although it was nearly three years later.

Xiaotian Jia has grown up.

Compared with the five-year-old girl in memory who wore a pink skirt, wore two pigtails on her head, and stood on another big lantern with a red lantern in her hand, she was wearing a pair of jeans embroidered with lovely pearls, a pair of black sports shoes and a white down jacket. The lovely "Little Jasmine" has now become a "big" student.

Tianjia's enviable black hair is tied in a ponytail with a pink rabbit's hair ring and hung behind her head. When she walks, some broken hair that is not tied into the "big team" flutters freely in the wind. Tianjia should hold her hair by hand from time to time to prevent them from flying into her mouth or eyes. Her mother said, "This is her own hair."

Although I just entered the second grade, I am not yet 9 years old, but living on campus is not a strange thing for Tianjia. Tianjia's mother said, "Duoduo has been living since he was two and a half years old."

Duoduo is Chen Tianjia's nickname, and everyone in her family calls her that.

"Her father and I are busy, and we don't want grandparents, grandmothers and grandfathers to spoil her, so we chose to let her live on campus." Chen Tianjia's mother said, "Now it seems that our decision is correct. This child's self-care ability is really better than other children. She would have combed her hair, and washed her socks and underwear. "

After listening to her mother's praise, Xiaotian Jia just giggled. After a short time together, it was proved that "hehe" giggle was her magic weapon.

I just like taking pictures.

We chose to take a photo of "Little Jasmine" under the broken wall of Dongbianmen, hoping that this elf-like child could arouse the sleeping wall.

If Tianjia was a little stiff at first and didn't know what posture to take to face the camera, she slowly let go after a short dance. Counting the beat quietly in her mouth, Chen Tianjia simply danced in front of the camera, accompanied by the shutter sound of "Kaka" from the camera.

At the root of the city wall, we chose three locations to take pictures of her, which lasted nearly an hour. Almost all the movements were made up by Chen Tianjia himself, either dancing or posing, with one move and one style, which was very serious. Tianjia's mother didn't give her any instructions on action except reminding her that her pants were stuffed into her shoes again and her clothes fell out. It was all up to her to play. "How did she figure out these movements?" Mother smiled at her daughter's endless postures.

She kept jumping in front of the camera, without shouting fatigue or impatience. Even during the filming, she had to somersault on the grass. Even her mother said helplessly, "A lot of class teachers also commented on her quiet in her comments. Look at how quiet she is now."

Chen Tianjia is really not quiet enough, but she secretly told me that it is because she likes taking pictures, not to mention facing the camera, even if she faces the camera, she is not afraid.

Chen Tianjia has been studying dance, and now she goes to the Beijing Dance Academy to study ballet every weekend. Now she has almost learned to stand on tiptoe. Chen Tianjia's mother said: "We let her learn dance to exercise, and we didn't deliberately train her. No one in our family is engaged in literature and art. What will happen in the future depends on her."

"Jasmine Flower" Going Away

Tianjia, who is now studying in the second grade of Beijing primary school, was once replaced by the word "Little Jasmine". But now at school, the color of "jasmine" has gradually faded. At school, she is a squadron leader, competing with many people and choosing 8 squadrons. She won with 27 votes among 35 students. She is a literary and art committee member in her class, and she has been the "general director" of the class get-together at an early age. She is also a representative of math class. She likes math class best, followed by English class, and Chinese class least. Although her composition level is very good, she insists on taking composition class. Tianjia's mother said she was popular.

Influenced by big brothers and sisters, Chen Tianjia likes Angela Zhang, Jay Chou and Wilber Pan. "Do you like Invisible Wings?" I asked her, "How do you know? Hey, I also like "A Thousand Miles Away". " Chen Tianjia said.

Finally, when it comes to the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games, what impressed Little Jasmine most about Athens was the pigeons in the square that were not afraid of people. "Pigeons are so cute that I have touched them. They don't fly." I also tried to remind her of something, but I got the answer: "Oh, the past second is history."

In an instant, stay.

I don't know if other actors who participated in the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games can think so. That is history, and it has nothing to do with me. This sentence came out of such a child's mouth, and it was in such a disapproving tone that we adults didn't seem to understand it as well as this crystal clear little girl.

Yes, this sentence may have been told to her by teachers and parents, and her mother told her as early as in Athens, but it is necessary for the child to recognize himself and not be obsessed with the original "famous".

Tianjia's mother said that some people in their neighborhood didn't know that Xiaotian Jia was the "jasmine flower" of that year, but to her mother's surprise, it wasn't until last semester that the head teacher in Chen Tianjia announced this to her classmates when Tianjia was out dancing. "The teacher told the classmates, why didn't you tell your mother?" Tianjia's mother asked her, and the answer was "What's there to say?" Now, what Chen Tianjia insists on is not being admitted to the school's thinking class, and he will take the exam again next semester. "Because I like thinking and math."

Chen Tianjia knows that the Beijing Olympic Games will be held next year, and she hopes that she can also perform dance at the Beijing Olympic Games. Chen Tianjia's mother said: "We also hope that our children can go to the Olympic Games again, and our children are also preparing, but we will not insist, and everything will be arranged."

The little girl singing in Athens wants to dance at the Beijing Olympic Games.

I'm not afraid.

Beijing News: Are you afraid on stage?

Chen Tianjia: Not afraid. Afraid of what? !

Beijing News: When the colored paper came out, I saw that you seemed to shake.

Chen Tianjia: I'm not afraid. The colored strips used to come out silently (during the rehearsal in Beijing). When I really sang, the colored strips spouted so loudly, I didn't know.

Beijing News: Are you nervous before the performance?

Chen Tianjia: I'm not nervous. I saw a brother who sang Beijing opera throw up before going on stage.

Chen Tianjia sang the first sentence in the MV Welcome to Beijing for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
