CCTV reporter Jiao Jian: This is Kaifeng City, Henan Province, and passing through this city gate is the streets and alleys of the Song Dynasty depicted in the Qingming Shanghe map. Here not only has the opportunity to recite poetry with Li Qingzhao, but also may meet Master Bao unexpectedly.
Wang Hui, the actor of Lord Bao in front of him, is busy writing the word "dragon" in various fonts for each opened store to accept new blessings. Wang Hui, who has a deep study of Song Dynasty culture, has been working in this "Song City" for more than 20 years and has his own understanding of the image meaning of the dragon.
Wang Hui, a staff member of Qingming Shanghe Park, Kaifeng City, Henan Province: In calligraphy, no matter what way it is written, this dragon character pays attention to a square balance. I think dragons are the embodiment of justice.
In "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival", there is a scene of an old man weighing himself with a large scale. Combined with the allusion of Bao Gong Bao Longtu making fair scales in history, Wang Hui set up the "Great Song Fair Scale" in the Qingming Shanghe Park, allowing tourists to immerse themselves in traditional culture in an innovative way.
The scenes on the ancient paintings are moved to today's Guochao neighborhood, so that more and more young people can feel the charm of traditional culture in a relaxed and humorous way.
With the efforts of Hu Baoguo, the local intangible cultural heritage paper-cut inheritor, this paper-cut work of more than 150 meters long "Hundred Dragons" was finally completed before the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon after more than a year of creative time. Under the artistic collision of scissors and paper, a hundred dragons, in different forms, are vivid. If you look closely, you will find that the eyes of each dragon have been specially artistically treated, and through the combination of "yang scissors" and "yin scissors", the eyes of each dragon have their own characteristics, showing the spirit of a hundred dragons in different styles.
Hu Baoguo, member of the Chinese Folk Literature and Art Association: (This year) happens to be the Year of the Dragon, and our Chinese nation is now taking off.
In the process of creating the Hundred Dragons, Hu Baoguo has a unique insight into the meaning of dragons. In his view, there is a connection between the head and tail of each dragon on paper-cutting, representing inheritance and continuation, just as the traditional art of paper-cutting develops in inheritance and inheritance. With the gradual introduction of traditional Chinese culture to the world, more and more foreign friends have also fallen in love with the art of Chinese paper-cutting.
Hu Baoguo, member of the Chinese Folk Literature and Art Association: There was an American who wanted to come to China to learn the language, and after finishing his studies, I exhibited paper-cutting in Beijing, and when I saw it, I came to learn paper-cutting. There are also Singaporean, Australian, when they see me, there are many people who say China, China, chasing me, this is the embodiment of our culture going out, beauty belongs to all mankind, who sees beauty and likes it. My self-confidence because we have something real.
CCTV reporter Jiao Jian: The tide is in the Year of the Dragon, how can you be accompanied by delicious food. As the saying goes, "the people take food as the sky", and in the "Qingming Riverside Map", descriptions of food culture also abound. This Sun Yang Zheng store is one of the "seventy-two main stores" in Bianjing, from the ancient times people only eat two meals a day, to the Northern Song Dynasty gradually developed the habit of three meals a day.
In the Song Dynasty, a main shop was a shop that was large enough to stir-fry vegetables and make wine. The abundance of shops and changes in eating habits also reflected the abundance of life at that time. During the Spring Festival, one of the dishes that tourists must order when they go to Sun Yangzheng's store is the carp leaping over the dragon gate. In traditional culture, the fish is the embodiment of the dragon, and the carp becomes a dragon after successfully jumping over the dragon gate through unremitting efforts, symbolizing the spirit of people who are not afraid of difficulties and have the courage to fight, as well as the desire to pursue excellence and realize their dreams.
The night market did not reopen until the end of the third watch, and then reopened on the fifth watch. If you go to a noisy place, all night long", it can be seen from the description of the Song Dynasty street market in "Tokyo Menghualu", as early as a thousand years ago, it was synonymous with commercial prosperity.
CCTV reporter Jiao Jian: Nowadays, takeaway has brought a lot of convenience to our lives, in fact, as early as the Song Dynasty, there was a takeaway brother, in the Qingming Shanghe picture, this person with two bowls in his left hand, two pairs of chopsticks in his right hand, and an apron in the middle, is a typical image of a takeaway brother. And on the building next to him hangs a sign that reads "Foot Shop". The foot shop was a small shop dedicated to guests to rest in the Northern Song Dynasty, and there would be some food in it, and this little brother was the delivery man who delivered food to this foot shop.
Peng Hengli, professor at the School of Culture and Tourism of Henan University: According to the record of "Tokyo Menghualu", the food in the hotel at that time could be taken home after being bought. The income from the liquor tax in Bianjing City was hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and the consumption was very large, which shows that the prosperity of commerce at that time reached an incredible level. Today, we are still able to have a dialogue with the ancients and understand what we did in ancient times, and it is by virtue of the continuity of this civilization, which is unique to our Chinese civilization.
