"CCTV** Amazing data of the Spring Festival: laughter with tears! 7.Behind the consumption of 8 trillion yuan, netizens exclaimed that the amount of fireworks burned was comparable to the war between Russia and Ukraine for half a year"
The Spring Festival, a traditional Chinese festival full of festivity and reunion, has always carried countless good expectations and blessings. This year, the celebration of the Spring Festival can be described as unprecedentedly gorgeous, not only with 3.5 billion Spring Festival passengers, but also with the amazing number disclosed by CCTV: the number of online payment transactions during the Spring Festival is as high as 774 trillion yuan, the average cost per person has reached 5,335 yuan, which is really jaw-dropping.
From Chinese New Year's Eve to the fifth day of the new year, tourism consumption has recovered strongly, and the number of advance bookings has increased by 7 times compared with last year, which shows that the new trend of "tourism for the New Year" is becoming more and more unstoppable. Every household is interpreting the profound connotation of "rich or not, go home for the New Year" with actions, adding a strong festive atmosphere to this warm moment.
However, in this lively Spring Festival celebration, there is another eye-catching consumption - fireworks. According to CCTV, the consumption of fireworks and firecrackers set off by the people is huge, which is reminiscent of the war in Ukraine for half a year. This makes us wonder, is it really possible to measure the indiscriminate bombardment of war by the amount of fireworks burned?
To answer this question, let's take a look at an amazing set of fireworks spectacle. In Ganzhou, Jiangxi, the scene of the New Year is like a war, as if the whole city is immersed in a carnival of fireworks. Guangxi's fireworks show is even more dizzying, as if it is a shocking fireworks feast. The fireworks in Hefei, Anhui Province are even more dazzling and ablaze, and the dense firepower network in the streets and alleys is simply enough to make Zelensky, who is far away in Ukraine, feel palpitations overnight.
Some Jiangxi netizens were even more surprised to find that their ancestral hall was on the verge of collapse under artillery fire, like a city destroyed by war. This makes people laugh and be shocked by the passion of setting off fireworks.
Of course, there are always some places where people are more reserved, for example, Hubei people don't like to play fireworks very much, and Hunan is in stark contrast to Hubei. This may be a difference in different regional cultures, or a different understanding of fireworks, but in any case, in this Spring Festival, fireworks bloom brilliantly in a unique way of celebration belonging to the Chinese.
On the whole, this year's Spring Festival consumption has indeed set an amazing record, whether it is the transaction amount of online payment or the fireworks scene, it fully demonstrates the enthusiasm and passion of Chinese for the New Year. This also makes us deeply feel that whether it is the epidemic or other troubles, Chinese can welcome the new year with full enthusiasm and show their tenacious national soul.
Perhaps behind this laughter, we can think more deeply about whether this carnival also represents a love for life and a confidence in the future. In any case, let's look forward to better days in the future, greet every sunrise and sunset with laughter and fireworks, and pass happiness to more people. At this special moment, let us jointly praise the unity, enthusiasm and dreams of the Chinese, and let this passion burn in everyone's heart.
