The creative background of Eighteen Bends in Mountain Road;
The original name of this song was "Son of the Sun", and later Yan Su changed its name to "Eighteen Bends in Mountain Road". The lyrics of this song are based on "Songs and Roads of Tujia Nationality" written by the poet Tong Wenxi in Changyang, his hometown. /kloc-in the summer of 0/990, Tong Wenxi went to western Hubei to collect folk songs, where he enjoyed Tujia folk performances such as swing dance, Bashan dance and crying wedding song.
At that time, when the car was crawling on the mountain road, it was attracted by the scenery of Qingjiang River and misty distant mountains, so it wrote the poem "Songs and Roads of Tujia People". The lyrics of this song are based on this poem and have been polished for three years.
