The content:
1.What influence does Heavenly Melody have on you after you joined?
I went alone to study abroad at a very young age and felt very lonely, accidently, I heard some songs from Heavenly Melody, and those songs soothed my insecurities for lacking my parents around. I grew up and became a dentist. Though it was a job with very good income, I still wanted to join a team like this. For example, the world is in an economic crisis right now and a lot of wealth shrank immensely with some people even losing their jobs owing to that. I realized that money is not everything, it cannot solve all the problems. However, with the power of music, we can heal our spiritual phase which is more effective than doctors. So I am very positive that my decision to give up being a dentist and join Heavenly Melody is accurate. And I can help more people through music.

2.How do Studio Classroom and Heavenly Melody incorporate with each other?
We are just two different departments spreading the Gospels. One is to preach with music while the other is to preach with magazines and book. Most of the income is from Studio Classroom magazine. Some people like to listen to music, so it is more effective and easily accepted by people if we spread Gospel through music.

3.What¡¦s the qualification for being the captain of Heavenly Melody?
This year marks the 45th anniversary of Heavenly Melody, which shows the hardworking of every captain we had before. It is not easy to be a captain. The captain should be capable of singing, dancing, and keeping his or her temper very well. The captain must be a person with good leadership, and one who is willing to help people as well. That person should be encouraging and always keep team members in good condition as well. The founder of Heavenly Melody is Dr. Brougham, so the captain is inheriting her vision and mission. Studio Classroom and Heavenly Melody are actually a team, only that Studio Classroom is focusing on English teaching and Heavenly Melody on Music.

4.Was there anything interesting happened when you were with Dr. Brougham?
Happiness can be contagious! When we toured in foreign countries, the journey was usually very far. But once we got on the car, Dr. Brougham would tell jokes to make everyone happy until we arrived at the destination. From this, you can tell that she is a very happy person who affects others directly or indirectly.

5.Are Studio Classroom and Let¡¦s talk in English magazines under the management of ORTV?
That¡¦s correct. The Heavenly Melody and many departments of Studio Classroom are subsidiaries of ORTV.

Does she take part in the performance of Heavenly Melody?
Dr. Brougham loves music very much, and she experts in trumpet, but she likes to preach even more. She once sold the trumpet her father left for her to do missionary work. Yet she still thinks music is a very good communication instrument. When she performs she sometimes talks to the audience to share her life story with them.
