2024 Year of the Dragon Spring Festival Gala list**, the host has changed blood, and netizens are scolding?
With the ** list of the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Dragon, this time the host came to a big change, which made many netizens talk about it. Some netizens expressed their dissatisfaction with not being familiar with old faces, which sparked heated discussions.
As a cultural symbol closely linked to the memories of several generations, the "Spring Festival Gala" once occupied an irreplaceable position. In the era when there were no smartphones, every year on the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Spring Festival Gala became a cultural feast shared by the whole people.
Whether it is urban or rural, adults or children, all eyes are on the Spring Festival Gala, which is a rare happy moment for the whole people.
However, with the development of the Internet and mobile Internet, people's access to information and entertainment channels are becoming more and more abundant, and the Spring Festival Gala, which once dominated the stage, has gradually lost its audience.
Those classic quotations that were popular in the past can no longer have any repercussions among young people.
So, how did the aura of the Spring Festival Gala fade?What kind of test will this cultural symbol face?We might as well re-examine the concept of "Spring Festival Gala" from a historical perspective.
First, the opportunity to accompany the growth of the whole people has been lost
For a long time, the Spring Festival Gala was the only choice for Chinese to welcome the Spring Festival and reunion. Therefore, regardless of the quality of the program, it carries the collective memory of the growth of several generations.
When I was a child, we followed the adults in front of the TV to learn the jokes of the Spring Festival Gala. When I grew up, I began to be able to appreciate the laughs in the show. When he became the protagonist of his life, he finally understood the truths that the Spring Festival Gala wanted to convey. This kind of growth trajectory has always been the best footnote to the Spring Festival Gala.
But today, that opportunity for collective growth no longer exists. The boom in short** platforms has divided the concept of "target user groups" into countless groups. Today's young people no longer have a common growth trajectory, they go their own way, get information and express opinions in their own circles. The Spring Festival Gala wants to meet everyone's needs, and it has become more and more difficult.
Second, trapping yourself in high standards and frameworks
Once upon a time, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala was like a benchmark for ratings and influence. Each station is competing to imitate, for fear that its Spring Festival Gala will be slightly inferior. This directly leads to the concept of the Spring Festival Gala being strictly framed in a certain norm, which is difficult to break through.
For example, in recent years, various local stations have tried to innovate through the old, and many new forms of programs have been added to the Spring Festival Gala. The results have been questioned and denied without exception, because these innovations have seriously deviated from people's inherent impression of the concept of "Spring Festival Gala". This is also destined to make it difficult for CCTV Spring Festival Gala to drastically reform and innovate in program settings. Because even the slightest change will become the focus of the first on the field.
Therefore, what we see is often the changes of the Spring Festival Gala under the original framework, and those bold ideas are difficult to practice. This is actually a dilemma that the Spring Festival Gala needs to face, it must change and remain unchanged, which is a difficult problem worth pondering.
Third, we are accustomed to "pointing at mulberry and scolding Huai".
This is the norm for many people during the Chinese New Year: complaining while watching, as if they are sorry for this Spring Festival Gala if they don't complain.
In fact, what is reflected behind this is people's emotional sustenance for the Spring Festival Gala. Everyone can choose not to watch it, but they have to stay in front of the TV;Obviously, you can appreciate it silently, but you have to complain while watching. Behind this attitude is a kind of attachment to this cultural symbol, a kind of reluctance.
Why do we complain that the Spring Festival Gala is not as good as before?It's actually a misplaced nostalgia. For the Spring Festival Gala, advance is the top, retreat is the bottom, it no longer has the glory of the past, this is an undeniable fact. But we just use that nostalgic attitude to ask it to "return my former Spring Festival Gala", which is a contradiction in itself.
The fading of the aura of the Spring Festival Gala is the inevitable change of time. We should not miss the Spring Festival Gala in the past, but re-examine the current Spring Festival Gala. What else can this cultural symbol bring to our lives?Does it still evoke fond memories in us?Is it still trying to convey some kind of positive values or spiritual connotation?That's what we should be thinking about.
Conclusion
If we put aside our preconceived prejudices, we will find that this year's Spring Festival Gala is not useless. It is still trying to create a happy and peaceful Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for everyone, even if it is only a little warm. We should not deny it just because the passage of time has passed, let alone look for the shadow of the past in it.
It's like facing aging parents, who have more and more wrinkles and slower steps, but this does not affect their love for us. Of course, we will miss their youthful heroism, but that doesn't mean we deny the way they are now.
People will get old, and the Spring Festival Gala is the same. It's still trying to get a little warmer, and it's not easy. Perhaps we should embrace a tolerant and understanding heart and face its changes in peace, just as we do with our aging parents. After all, the Spring Festival and the warmth of home may be what it always wants to convey.
