See, see, insight, insight.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, CCTV's annual dinner of the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Dragon was officially "served".
After watching the whole party, the author has a strong feeling: the four major sub-venues are also too good-looking!
The Xi'an branch venue used the national tide performance to reproduce the magnificent scene of "poetic Chang'an" in Datang Sleepless City, and invited the super cultural idol "Li Bai" to enjoy the mountains and rivers for 30,000 miles, and the cultural context runs through the millennium.
When you look up at the snowflakes in the sky, it will definitely take you home", the Shenyang branch venue released the "steel tenderness" at the China Industrial Museum, making people feel the warmth and enthusiasm of the Great Northeast Fire in the ice and snow.
On the rooftops, a warm national song and dance was staged, and the ancient city of Kashgar at night turned into a sea of joyful festivals, and Di Lieba, which bloomed like pomegranate flowers in Xinjiang, was beautiful to a new level.
In the "three halls and one hall" at the confluence of the Xiangjiang River and the Liuyang River, He Jiong, who is always a teenager, and thousands of young people completed the large-scale chorus "All Realized", the youth and dreams are more shining than the New Year fireworks of the "Sleepless Star City"!
At first glance, isn't this the east-west-north-south festival of the national cultural tourism? People can't help but immediately rush to the embrace of the great rivers and mountains, and taste all kinds of "New Year's flavors" in a lively and lively manner. When I think about it, I don't think it's that simple.
In the 41-year history of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, in 1996, 2002, and 2016-2019 for 4 consecutive years, the sub-venue model has been adopted, and the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Dragon has been opened again, which can be regarded as a return after the comprehensive recovery of social life. What is impressive is that this year's "1+4", that is, "one main venue + four sub-venues", uses overall design, artistic expression, and refined presentation to make the sub-venues and the main venue integrated and charming, which not only gives the sub-venues unprecedented theme brightness and aesthetic height, but also opens up the spatial scale and narrative pattern of the main venue.
What is the meaning of these four sub-venues? What's the highlight? The author tried to ** a bit.
Xi'an Branch: Poetry has always been there, and Chang'an will always be there.
Xi'an is the favorite of the Spring Festival Gala branch of the main station.
Here is a trivia insertion: In 1996, the Spring Festival Gala venues appeared for the first time, and they were located in Xi'an and Shanghai; In 2002, it was Shenzhen; After a lapse of 14 years, the Spring Festival Gala branch venue was set up again in 2016, and Xi'an was selected together with Quanzhou, Guangzhou, and Hulunbuir; In the following three years, Shanghai, Liangshan, Guilin, Harbin, Zhuhai, Tai'an, Sanya, Zhaoxing Dongzhai, Jinggangshan, Shenzhen, and Changchun all served as branch venues.
After four years, the sub-venue model has just returned, and Xi'an is once again among them. It is not unclear that the thermal value of the Xi'an branch venue is far ahead, and Shanghai and Shenzhen are tied for second.
As the starting point of the ancient Silk Road and an important node city of the "Belt and Road", Xi'an, an ancient capital with its own cultural buff, is naturally worth admiring. 2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative, and the successful holding of China's first major home diplomatic event, the Central Asia Summit, has brought the ancient Xi'an to the atmosphere of an international metropolis in the new era.
As long as the poem is there, Chang'an is there". In the summer of 2023, the hit movie "Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang'an" triggered the traffic password of Xi'an's "Capital of Tang Poetry". After the movie was released, the search volume of the already lively Datang City that never sleeps skyrocketed several times, and the normalized crowd scene was like "dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty".
A thousand years ago, Li Bai witnessed the grand scene of "opening the palace in nine days, and all countries worshipping the crown" in Yongning Gate. The program "Mountains and Rivers Poems of Chang'an" at the Xi'an branch venue was ingenious, and Zhang Ruoyun, who had played a "talent" in "Celebrating More Than Years" and was well received, invited "Li Bai" in "Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang'an" to see a brighter, more beautiful and more swaying Chang'an today.
The natural interweaving of ancient civilization and modern life has become the main feature of the Xi'an branch. The national tide performance integrates Shaanxi rap, creative water sleeves, drum symphony and other forms, from the national singing and poetry and singing gameplay, to the virtual and real interaction of "culture + technology", all of which are swaying with cultural confidence in inheritance and innovation.
The scene of the Xi'an branch venue is a bit like the easter egg of "30,000 Miles of Chang'an" spanning thousands of years - those poems and people in Chang'an City are imprinted in the genes of the Chinese, stretching endlessly, and the vitality is surging.
Shenyang Branch: "Iron Juice", the Great Northeast calls you home.
The strong atmosphere of the New Year in Northeast China and the unique ice and snow style are of course the characteristics of the Shenyang branch.
It may be that the "Northeast Warm Man Design" left by Harbin to the people of the whole country a while ago is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but it is more likely that the Shenyang branch venue understands the impact of the sense of contrast too well, and the performance "Winter Warm Sun" is a "tear point".
The Shenyang branch venue is located in the Industrial Museum of China in Tiexi District, Shenyang, where the entire history of China's industry is fixed. The stage full of industrial style and mechanical sense is divided into three paragraphs: "Spring Full Home", "The Most Beautiful Home" and "Magnificent Home", showing the atmosphere of the new era of the old industrial base in Northeast China. The performance will be "Little New Year's Greetings" and "Lovers" and other unique Northeast characteristics of the new choreography, and rock and roll, rap, folk music, ballet, so that the Northeast opera and contemporary fashion creative collision, presenting a unique international style.
Obviously there is a sense of industrial style and a sense of joy in the northeast, how can you listen and watch, especially when the drone poses a "snowflake" shape in the sky, it pokes at the tip of people's hearts? Take a closer look, "Warm Sun in Winter" is the affectionate call of the Great Northeast! "Where are the people who travel far away, my mother is looking" "Let's all go back to our hometown, riveting enough energy to break through, the popular and prosperous Northeast, the revitalization of the heavy task dare to take responsibility, the high sky and the thick soil hide the hope, you see the snowy hometown shining brightly, you see the magnificent mountains and rivers, is our proud hometown" ......On the eve of the Spring Festival, the Shenyang Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League once released a family letter titled "Iron Juice, Shenyang Calls You Home for the New Year", which has been praised countless times, and the content theme is the same as "The Warm Sun in Winter" - looking forward to waiting for the return of the king, talking about nostalgia and development.
In September last year, the symposium on promoting the comprehensive revitalization of Northeast China in the new era clearly stated that "the revitalization of Northeast China in the new era is comprehensive revitalization and all-round revitalization". With the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, the "cultural Chinese New Year's Eve dinner" of the global Chinese, Shenyang shows its own style of jointed growth to the whole country and even the world, which is to show the pride of the comprehensive revitalization of Northeast China.
There is also a unique highlight of the Shenyang branch venue, which shows not only the spiritual outlook of Shenyang and even Liaoning, but the entire Northeast together with all parts of the country. The number of guests participating in the sub-venue far exceeds that of the other three sub-venues, not only Lang Lang, Qin Lan, Guo Allen, Hui Ruoqi who came out of Liaoning, but also Wu Dajing, Dong Baobao, Zhang Tianai and other star representatives from Heilongjiang and Jilin, as well as Zhang Qi, Ji Ke Junyi, Lai Meiyun, Lin Xiaofeng, Wang Zulan, Wang Xinyu, Zhang Xincheng and other guests from all over the country, including Hong Kong and Macao.
At the beginning of 2024, the explosion of Harbin is inseparable from the concerted efforts of the "Northeast family". Do you still remember the two "Golden Phoenixes" that Shenyang sent out without hesitation when Harbin needed decoration? We sincerely look forward to Shenyang, an old industrial base that integrates the blood of heroes with the soil of the city, and the phoenix nirvana, flying high again.
Kashgar Branch: Xinjiang is the most beautiful in an open and confident country.
Nigmaiti, who was at the main venue, once said that he represented a face of "national unity" on the stage of CCTV. So what about Di Lieba, who danced at the Kashgar branch venue? To borrow the hot words at the recent two sessions in Xinjiang, what she has bloomed to the fullest is the openness and self-confidence of the beautiful Xinjiang.
The people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have the most right to speak on Xinjiang's affairs. In the past year, Di Lieba has been a beautiful character business card who "goes out" to tell the story of China's Xinjiang. In the popular "Flowers and Youth: Silk Road Season", she stood in Croatia and wore an Adelaide silk skirt to perform Xinjiang dance, which aroused enthusiastic cheers from the local people. After the program was broadcast, this **accompanied by the likes of many Chinese ambassadors abroad** caused huge repercussions on social platforms at home and abroad, and was praised "This dance is like a bright blooming Xinjiang red pomegranate flower, showing the charm of Chinese culture." ”
Today, Xinjiang is full of vitality and culture, and all ethnic groups are competing in the big family of the Chinese nation. As an important fulcrum of the core area of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the starting point of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, Kashgar can read the historical context, taste colorful customs, and become a century-old industry, and is full of stability, peace and vigorous development. With the theme of "Dance and Music in Xinjiang", the Kashgar branch venue is divided into three parts: "Silk Road Scene", "Gathering for Spring" and "Above Life", and designed performance elements such as singing, rapping, multi-ethnic top dance, instrumental music display, and scene interpretation, combined with the Belt and Road, green energy and other topics, and invited more than 500 ancient city residents to participate in this Spring Festival party immersively.
As the song goes: "Xinjiang is a good place". A window reflects a happy family reunited. On the rooftops, enthusiastic folk songs and dances were staged. In the whole ancient city, the people of all ethnic groups sang and laughed, and used a cultural feast with unique Xinjiang characteristics to move the picture of the life of the pomegranate red, the days are hot, the people are happy, and Xinjiang is beautiful, and they jointly played the gorgeous movement of the Chinese nation as a family.
The guests who performed with Di Lieba at the Kashgar branch venue also included Ai Re and Yu Hazy, Xinjiang is really a good place! To tell the stories of the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, we need more friends from Xinjiang to come together!
Changsha Branch: Thousands of young people sang the "City of Youth".
As mentioned earlier, the Spring Festival Gala of the main station prefers Xi'an. So it must be said here that Changsha finally represented the entire Central China region and squeezed into the branch venue of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time.
So, why did Changsha get this admission ticket? As soon as He Jiong appeared, the words "Youth China" popped up in the audience's minds. In fact, "youth" is not only the impression that Hunan Radio and Television conveys to the public, but also the charm of Changsha, the city where it is located.
Do you know how much young people love Changsha? According to the "Statistical Communiqué on the National Economic and Social Development of Changsha City in 2022" released in April last year, among the cities with a population of 10 million that have released data, Changsha has increased by 18130,000 people, ranking first in the country! In the "2023 China City Livability Index Ranking" released by UN-Habitat, Changsha still ranks first! The "Insight Report on the New Needs of Young People Choosing Cities" also shows that among the top 20 livable cities in 2023, Changsha is the most recommended place.
Today's Changsha has long advanced from an "Internet celebrity city" to a "Changhong city". As one of the country's first batch of pilots, Changsha is making every effort to build a national youth development city demonstration benchmark, and its continuous transmission of youth, fashion, freedom, and inclusive beautiful lifestyle has a strong attraction to the majority of young people, which is "Qingheli".
The Liuyang River bends through Jiudao Bay, and the fifty-mile waterway reaches the Xiangjiang River "......The Changsha branch venue is located at the confluence of the Xiangjiang River and the Liuyang River. The three halls refer to the Changsha Museum, the Changsha Library, and the Changsha Planning Hall, and the first hall refers to the Changsha ** Hall. As a new Internet celebrity check-in mecca in Changsha, "Three Museums, One Hall" is known as a soul landmark by young people, which collects the historical memory of Changsha, condenses the cultural essence of Sanxiang, and also contains the creative expression of youth.
Taking this as the stage, driven by He Jiong, Zhang Yixing, Wan Qian, Deng Nannan, Huang Miyi and other guests, thousands of young people jointly completed a large-scale chorus, from the "Liuyang River" to the joyful "Birthday Blessing Song", and then to the powerful "Sea of Stars", "Proud Boy" and "All Realized", they used the song of youth to praise the vigorous and high-spirited style of the "Nightless Star City". When the naked-eye 3D dragon soars, when the romantic fireworks bloom brightly, the young people usher in a beautiful moment of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new in each other's blessings, "That posture is so brilliant, embrace the sun together, every wish comes true!" ”
The author is thinking that this branch venue is used to encourage young people to raise the sail of forging ahead, and it is full of ardent voices of caring for young people and achieving young people. Continuously enhancing the "youth and power" and escorting the youth who ride the wind and waves should be the direction of more cities and even our entire society.
