This "lovely children's voice" comes from Cai Guoqing's mouth. Chen Dapeng, the author of the book, wrote in his album Years Like Songs: "In the early 1970s, when TV was only a luxury, people mainly relied on radio to get information.

The trumpet program was launched on September 4th, 1956, and has been broadcast ever since. With the growth of nearly three generations, it was even the only children's radio program in Chinese mainland for a period of time, so it was once the most extensive and influential children's program in Chinese mainland.

In recent years, with the rise of new media such as TV and Internet and the overall decline of wireless broadcasting, the influence of small speakers on children is declining, but for many China people born before the mid-1960s, small speakers are still an important part of childhood memories.

Matters needing attention

Growing up, I listened to countless radio programs, many of which left a deep impression on me. But no matter how deep the impression, it can't stand the erosion of rain, snow, wind and frost and the polishing of years. As time goes by, I have become a forgetful person.

Early trumpet programs gathered the most elite announcers of children's programs in China at that time, such as children educator, Mr. Sun Jingxiu, grandpa of stories, Mr. Can Cao, a student from Sun Jingxiu, Aunt of stories, and later Ms. Kang Ying, grandma of stories. Their superb broadcasting art has attracted generations of children and accompanied them through a wonderful childhood.
