Support snowflake slogan

According to Zhang Yimou, the theme of this Winter Olympics can be summarized in one sentence: "Completely different snowflakes gather in Beijing and become a human snowflake, a snowflake with the same * * *."

This sentence, I think, is quite in line with "the same fate of mankind."

There are no two identical snowflakes in the world, but we should use the same * * * to construct a snowflake.

This in itself is the embodiment of "gentlemen are harmonious but different".

I can't help thinking about some current international situations without major changes in the current century.

Under the impact of the epidemic, mankind is facing the same enemy-virus, which should unite to fight the epidemic, but because the United States keeps spreading rumors and slanders against us, mankind cannot twist into a rope to fight the epidemic.

At the same time, the United States is still playing ideology, which has become a bit morbid.

This deliberate emphasis on differences, preconceived labeling of the other side, and penetration into the opposite side of the United States are obviously unable to "seek common ground while reserving differences", which will only amplify differences and differences, aggravate contradictions among all parties, and make the world turbulent.

Therefore, I personally agree with the concept of "a snowflake with * * *" throughout the opening ceremony of this Winter Olympics, and I am quite touched.

Let me talk about the opening ceremony itself.

The time is 20 o'clock, and the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics starts on time.

But at this time, a novel 24 solar terms came out to do the countdown. At this time, it has cut into the global live broadcast process, which is equivalent to popularizing the 24 solar terms culture of Lower China to the global audience.

The last moment of the countdown is to stop in beginning of spring, because today is also beginning of spring, symbolizing the beginning. From the end of the countdown to the beginning of the opening ceremony, one after another, which is very meaningful.

Moreover, the countdown ends at 20: 04.

Countdown to 24 solar terms, the 24th Winter Olympics started at 20: 04 on February 4th, and the China team appeared at 24: 00.

Quite a subtle design.

The national flag entrance ceremony after the countdown also brought tears to my eyes. Maybe this is national identity. I'm proud that I'm from China.

The stage design of the opening ceremony of this Winter Olympics is also very scientific and technological.

In the middle of the stadium is a huge oval screen, which makes me dream of returning to the beautiful picture of the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

At the same time, this time there is a vertical width in the middle, which makes the whole stage design more scientific and technological, and at the same time can give full play to the imagination.

In the first hour of the program, what impressed me the most was how the water of the Yellow River moved out of heaven before the Olympic rings came out.

Such a magnificent scene has combined China culture and science and technology well.

Before displaying the Olympic rings, countries and cities that have hosted the Winter Olympics in history will be displayed one by one.

Interestingly, I don't know if it's my illusion. I always feel that the exhibition time in the United States is a little short, and everyone gets the message.

The Olympic rings come out of the water cube screen, which is also quite shocking visually.

After the Olympic rings appeared, it was time for delegations to enter the stadium.

There is one detail. The order of the delegation's admission this time is in the order of strokes of Chinese initials.

This also has our own characteristics.

It took a long time for the delegation to enter the ceremony, and it was almost 2 1: 30 in the end.

Then they began to perform with snowflakes as the theme, which is what Zhang Yimou said: "Different snowflakes converge into one big snowflake".

The small snowflake guide card in the hands of the stage actor unconsciously becomes a small snowflake on the stage screen and then gathers into a big snowflake.

It is worth noting that this small snowflake guide card is woven with the pattern of "Chinese knot" and printed with the names of the participating delegations.

The whole performance process is "alternating between reality and reality, and the reality and reality are born together".

When the big snowflake surrounds the audience, it feels like AR, and there are some naked-eye 3D effects.

Finally, unconsciously, the big snowflake turned into a solid glowing figure.

At the same time, if you zoom in, you can find that the middle of the big snowflake is composed of the small snowflake guide cards held by the previous stage actors, which fully emphasizes that so many countries and regions and different cultures of mankind have come together to form a "human body" and unite as one.

From the beginning, the small snowflake guide card in the dancer's hand became a pattern on the screen, and then changed from a virtual pattern to a large snowflake with entity.

From entity to virtual, and then from virtual to entity, such a "combination of reality and reality" technique staged a visual feast.

Including a group of people behind skiing on this screen stage, the screen slides with the skiers, and real-time skiing changes and patterns appear, which also achieves the effect of "combination of reality and reality".

This combination of reality and reality, true and false, has really achieved the effect of alternating reality and reality, which not only has a beautiful stage effect, but also has far-reaching implications.

Finally, the ignition ceremony that everyone is most concerned about.

In fact, when I saw this big snowflake running through the performance, I felt that the final ignition process should be related to this big snowflake.

Finally, the way of ignition didn't give people too shocking feeling, and even didn't ignite. The last torch is the main torch, which is directly inserted in the middle of the big snowflake, and the Ran Ran rises.

But this blandness also gives people a natural feeling.

Moreover, the small torch conforms to the theme of environmental protection, leaving a lot of blank space.

A big snowflake gathered by all mankind is burning the Olympic torch.

This symbolizes hope. In the face of the epidemic, what mankind needs more is unity and hope.

Adhering to the concept of simplicity, there are not many performances in this Winter Olympics, but all the fine products have given us a visual feast, full of the concept of human unity.

For example, large snowflakes embedded in the earth's background not only fill the visual effect, but also make people feel the concept of "the same fate of mankind".

Human civilization is rich and colorful. Different countries and nations have different cultures and customs. It is not easy for so many different civilizations to gather on the earth and communicate, cooperate and integrate with each other.

Therefore, seeking common ground while reserving differences has always been an important principle of our international cooperation.

Respecting differences is the basis of mutual cooperation.

The hegemonism of the United States is that it insists on taking his set of democratic values as a template and then forcibly imposes it on other countries, which has brought a lot of suffering to many countries at the expense of war.

Last year, the United States withdrew its troops from Afghanistan in panic. The United States has spent more than $2 trillion in Afghanistan, continuing to "transform" Afghanistan for 20 years and supporting a so-called "democratic" government according to American ideas.

As a result, the Afghan government, which copied the American model, was overthrown by the Afghan Taliban less than a month after withdrawing its troops in the United States.

Facts have fully proved that this arrogant and overbearing practice of the United States can only lead to failure in the end.

Every nation has its own culture and customs, and every country has its own national conditions, but there is no way to forcibly apply it with a template.

Democracy is not unique to the United States, nor is it the American model or democracy. Other models of democracy are not democracy.

So America is not qualified to be a teacher of democracy.

What's more, American democracy is now in an obvious dilemma. The riots on Capitol Hill at the beginning of last year have fully demonstrated that American democracy is terminally ill.

Ironically, although the United States also knows that there are serious problems in American democracy, the so-called "democracy conference" convened by Biden at the end of last year was also about "returning to democracy", but this messy meeting only had lengthy speeches, but there were no practical improvement measures of any substantive significance.

Although the United States knows that there are great problems in American democracy, they don't have the courage to really face the problems and solve them.

This reflects that the United States has now lost its ability to correct itself.

Therefore, the United States can only turn its attention to other countries and forcibly create so-called imaginary enemies to enhance cohesion, but this still cannot cover up the huge tear within the United States.

There are problems in the United States, but the most dangerous thing is that Americans dare not admit it, dare not solve it, and set fires around the world.

In this case, we should become the mainstay for the prosperity of the world.

Compared with American hegemony, we have obviously adopted a more responsible attitude in international affairs.

I analyzed it with you a long time ago. This is the difference between bullying and kingliness.

The basis of international cooperation is to respect each other's differences

Confucius said, "A gentleman is harmonious but different, while a villain is the same but not harmonious.

The hegemonic practice of the United States and the practice of launching wars around the world to promote its democratic values are obviously "the same but different."

On the other hand, we respect each other's differences, seek common ground while reserving differences on this basis, and support other countries to solve problems in a realistic way and embark on their own unique path in light of their own national conditions and local conditions. This is the path chosen by people all over the world, and it is king to let them "be harmonious but different".

The whole world can have a common goal, which is peace and prosperity.

On this basis, we should maintain our differences and respect each other, so as to safeguard the prosperity and development of the whole world and finally unite the destiny of mankind.

Therefore, the theme of this Winter Olympics is "completely different snowflakes, and finally converge into a human snowflake."

I think this is the essence of "harmony but difference" in our China culture.

A snowflake has the same * * *, and human beings also live on the same earth.

May we all be in harmony but different.

Today is the beginning of spring, symbolizing hope and beginning.
