Guo Tailai's request was not allowed.
As Guo Tailai said, things like Shangxiang have too strong feudal superstition, which should not be the case for our party who adheres to materialism. Therefore, Shang Xiang's request was dismissed, but was allowed to offer a flower basket to the monument.
Guo Tailai started preparing early in the morning, to be precise when it was still dark.
The superior can allow Guo Tailai to present the flower basket. Guo Tailai has already felt flattered and must be taken seriously today.
Most of the time, Guo Tailai likes casual clothes, which are more comfortable to wear, but this time, Guo Tailai put on the dress carefully designed by Chu Fei. It is a tunic suit, very formal but also very design, even if you attend the most solemn occasions will not be rude.
The sister personally arranged the clothes for Guo Tai, and then sent him to the car and went straight to Tiananmen Square. Sister did not go, she was still a soldier on active duty, she was waiting at home with Grandpa Zhao and Zhao Xiangbei.
Guo Tailai intends to watch the flag-raising first and then present the flower basket.
It was still early days, there was no one on the entire Chang'an Street, only a few cleaners were cleaning. Guo Tailai's car arrived smoothly without any traffic jams along the way.
What surprised Guo Tailai was that the car was not parked on the side of the square. Parking was prohibited here, but it stopped at the entrance of a compound. Armed police stood guard at the gate of the compound, standing straight.
Not knowing what the process is today, Guo Tailai completely obeyed the arrangement, got off the bus and entered the door. The guards at the door checked the verification documents and carefully checked them, meticulously. After checking the documents, Guo Tailai had to walk through a security inspection door.
There was no problem when people were passing by, but when a security person brought a large box in the trunk through the security gate, it caused a sharp alarm sound.
Although it was early in the morning, the security check at the door responded very quickly here, and a dozen people came out in a hurry. The two guards with guns also grasped the guns and stared at this side. Fortunately, no one, including Guo Tailai, moved, and the soldiers who appeared suddenly did not take any further action, nor did they attract more guns.
"Can you open the box?" The officer in charge of security asked politely to Guo Tai and asked. Those who are able to come here brightly are not likely to be gangsters, but the security check must be conscientious and responsible, and they cannot tolerate a slight negligence.
"Of course!" Guo Tailai nodded quickly.
This box was prepared by the elder sister, and the contents inside were used by Guo Tailai to greet the heroic spirit when he presented the flower basket. It was not a contraband. There is a lot of metal inside, which triggers a security door alarm. It is normal to check.
The box is opened and it is a separate flat box, and there is nothing else. The three guards responsible for the inspection opened the boxes one by one, and then saw the contents inside.
Medal, medal manual.
Medal, medal manual.
Medal, medal manual.
...
All the small boxes are all these things. When checking the first one, the guards who checked were a little bit cautious, but when the fifth one was checked, they were already full of awe. The officer who reached for the pistol holster next to him also had the same expression, and his hand also left After the holster, take the initiative to help cover the checked boxes one by one. .
Responsibilities are there, so each box must be inspected. After manual inspection, the machine must be checked again to make sure that there are no other prohibited items. But the attitude of the guards has fundamentally changed.
After the last box was checked and the officer carefully closed the box and put it back in the box, the officer commanded aloud: "Everyone, stand upright! Salute!"
All the guards present were all standing neatly in action, saluting Guo Tailai incomparably sincere. In the eyes of each warrior, there is a fierce worship and identification.
The salute of the guards made Guo Tailai feel warm in his heart. Guo Tailai was wearing casual clothes, smiling slightly and bowing to everyone as a salute.
After passing the security check, Guo Tailai discovered that it was the station of the National Flag Guard that came in. At this moment, the soldiers of the guards are ready to go, ready to raise the flag.
Here, Guo Tailai saw a big flower basket, which surprised Guo Tailai. This flower basket was actually carried over by the national flag **** team. This treatment made Guo Tailai almost excited. The box was also left here. Guo Tailai didn't know the specific arrangement and did it completely.
Under the guidance of a soldier, Guo Tailai walked along the way to the square. No way, parking is prohibited all the way, and no one is exception.
When we arrived at the square, it was still dawn. The flag raising ceremony of Tiananmen Square is to ensure that the national flag rises synchronously with the sun. It is not yet time to raise the flag. Today is not a major holiday or anniversary, and not many people come to see the flag. But there is not much to say, but there are actually many. The summer vacation tourism season has entered. Many people from all over the country come to Beijing to visit the capital. Many people will make a special trip to see the flag-raising ceremony early in the morning. This will also be a rare place on the square. Two hundred people. Of course, hundreds of people standing on the huge square do not feel crowded at all.
Guo Tailai did not occupy the nearest position to watch the flag-raising, he chose to stand between the flagpole and the monument and watch the flag-raising ceremony from afar.
The 36 National Guard fighters moved in unison and walked from the Jinshui Bridge outside Tiananmen to the flagpole. Today is not every 1 (1st, 11th, and 21st of every month), nor a major festival, but the Armed Police Military Orchestra has appeared in Off the scene. In the sound of the national anthem played on the spot, the people around the ceremony salute the salute of the marching ceremony team, sing the national anthem at the rhythm of the music, watch the national flag rise, and fly high.
To the people who participated in the flag-raising ceremony on today’s square, the national flag was raised, the national anthem was played, and the soldiers of the national flag **** did not line up to return to Tiananmen Square.
Another team of soldiers came from the side of Jinshuiqiao. The first two soldiers carried a flower basket. The soldiers behind were neatly arranged. Each person held a small flat box solemnly, just like being reviewed. , Walking forward to the monument.
Guo Tailai has stood under the steps in front of the monument. The soldier carrying the flower basket placed the basket on the first floor of the monument in front of Guo Tailai. The soldiers holding the medal box stood neatly behind Guo Tailai with a straight posture.
The people who watched the flag didn't know what happened, but they all came around and looked at it curiously.
The baton conductor of the military band sang, and the melody of "Singing the Motherland" sounded solemnly. Guo Tailai stood upright, looking at the solemn monument, singing loudly with the music, and burst into tears.
