February** Dynamic Incentive Program
During the Chinese New Year, it is indispensable to give out red envelopes.
What does the red envelope represent? How much novelty does the red envelope carry?
Between relatives, red envelopes convey a kind of love, a feeling, a heart, a concern, and a trace of sincerity.
The love of red envelopes makes people take on infinite love and responsibility from their hearts.
Why is that?
Because after all, it is a loved one, in such an important festival.
Our life is beautiful, with a little surprise pouring out of the calm and a string of heartbeats in the festivity.
1) According to official statistics, in 2017, a total of 14.2 billion WeChat red packets were sent and received on Chinese New Year's Eve.
In 2024, WeChat red envelopes, the total amount of Chinese New Year's Eve sent and received is only 52700 million.
After 7 years, the number of WeChat red envelopes has decreased by nearly 9 billion, and it seems that people don't like to send red envelopes very much.
During this year's Spring Festival, a very important new member has been added to our family, that is, the newly married daughter-in-law.
Originally, we were parents, according to the ancient traditions and customs of our hometown.
Parents will give a big red envelope to their new daughter-in-law, and I think this is definitely due and necessary.
However, after we gave our son and daughter-in-law a red envelope.
My son and daughter-in-law each gave us a big red envelope, which was bigger than the red envelope we gave her.
This is really a big joy for us.
This time, my son and daughter-in-law gave us a big red envelope of 6,000 yuan.
We were very, very happy, my wife smiled from ear to ear, and there were even more amazing actions.
When she was still carrying the red envelope to the bedroom, she counted the four brand-new heads of state avatar tickets over and over again.
This is like the form in which Wang Lao Wu received a bonus, which really makes people feel a little unbearable!
Red envelopes, red envelope rain, red horns during the Spring Festival.
The range you cover, the speed at which you Mercedes, can be said to have surpassed BMW, Boeing 787.
This kind of thing has become commonplace among our people.
In the information age, electronic red envelopes, electronic red envelopes rain, light and affectionate, with infinite joy and blessings.
Think about it again, what is the meaning of gratitude for red envelopes?
Love is contained in the red envelope, hope is pinned on it, and thousands of favors have given it.
The hard work of the year is reflected here, and there are different figures.
But without your struggles throughout the year, busyness and hard work.
When you are shy in your pocket, no matter what you say, you can't hold up the façade of the red envelope.
When you really don't want to go, you want to send a red envelope, but you always have more than enough heart and not enough power.
You can only make the red envelope fly almost empty, for a short while, but this flight seems to lack the necessary momentum, and it is difficult to last.
You say, this red envelope really makes some people worried about the New Year and afraid of the New Year.
After all, every time this red envelope is issued, it is realistic, there is no credit, and there is no real strength.
When receiving a red envelope, the person receiving the red envelope should have a respectful and grateful heart, full of kindness and gratitude.
And in the celebration of the Spring Festival holiday, we are constantly growing and succeeding.
2) When did the red envelope start?
The predecessor of the red envelope is to press money, which can be traced back to the Warring States period in ancient China.
At that time, there was a story that:
There is an elderly couple who rarely gave birth to a son when they are old.
The old couple loved their son like their lives, and they regarded it as a pearl in their palms, but they were very afraid.
What are you afraid of?
It is said that there is a little demon, called Chong, who always takes advantage of the night to stroke the head of a sleeping child, and then frightens the child to cry, and then has a fever and will become a fool.
This old husband and wife protect their children in order to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve.
Try not to go to sleep, they gave the child 8 copper coins to let the child play, the child was tired of playing, or fell asleep.
So, the old couple wrapped 8 copper coins in red paper and pressed them under the child's pillow.
In the second half of the night, the old couple also fell asleep and took a nap.
Then the wind came and blew out the oil lamp and threw itself on the place where the child was sleeping.
However, this time it failed, why?
When it pounced on the child's sleeping place, eight golden rays of light suddenly flashed, and it fled in a hurry.
Since then, the old couple has told many people in the village about this vigil.
Later, people have been using New Year's money for their children, and they don't sleep on the last day of the year, which is called "Shouchong", also called "Shou Chong", also called "Shou New Year".
According to people, there are two main types of red envelopes, one is threaded with colored ropes, woven into a dragon shape, and placed at the foot of the bed.
The record of this kind of red envelope can be found in the "Chronicles of the Years of Yanjing" written by Qing Fucha Dunchong:
Wear money with colored ropes, make a dragon shape, and place it at the foot of the bed, which is called New Year's money.
Those who respect the elders and give children are also known as New Year's money. ”
The second type of prevalence is even higher, in which the elders wrap copper or silver coins in red paper and distribute them to children.
At that time, the New Year's money could be distributed in public after the New Year's greetings by the younger generations.
It can also be quietly placed under the child's pillow by the elders on Chinese New Year's Eve, when the child is asleep.
There is also a folk belief that when demons want to harm children, children can use New Year's money to "bribe" them.
So as to turn evil into good fortune, peace and health.
Therefore, from then on, the New Year's money has the meaning of warding off evil spirits and blessing peace.
The current society has completely separated from physical coins and changed to electronic red envelopes.
However, the blessings, peace, festivity, and health carried by the red envelopes have become more profound.
In this era, red envelopes are not only a noble embodiment of liking children and caring for others.
It is also a good tool to sponsor others and become successful students, and doesn't it expand its original function?
Tell me, is it good to have more red envelopes like this?
