Is this bow only used for mourning? I didn't mean anything by it. I only saw it occasionally and asked someone who understood it.

The correct bow posture is: the basic posture of bow is to make a fist with the right hand, palm with the left hand, or wrap or cover the right fist. This kind of bowing posture is "Bai Ji". On the contrary, "right palm, left fist" is a kind of fierce bowing, which is generally used for mourning. It is this kind of "fierce worship" that often appears in New Year advertisements.

China paid attention to "Left" in ancient times, and today, China officials still inherit this tradition. For example, the ranking of leaders, the second leader must be on the left of the first leader. International practice is to respect the right, so when receiving foreign guests, everyone sits on the right (except Comrade Xiaoping, who is hard of hearing because of his right ear). Why did the ancients respect the left? The general explanation is that people usually use their right hand when attacking others. Therefore, when bowing, the left hand is outside, showing people with "left" to show sincerity and respect. Although tradition is no longer popular, although the public has no clear understanding of how to bow. However, as a kind of mass communication and an important part of brand culture, advertising plays a joke on New Year's greetings with the gesture of "mourning", which is really ridiculous and generous. There were similar mistakes in previous advertisements, and there were many big-name planners and big-name celebrity spokespersons. People don't know what to do, so it is very necessary to make up this little common sense from the advertising planners, producers, spokespersons, censors and advertisers of TV media. Of course, it is definitely not just advertisers who make similar mistakes. Many big-name hosts, film and television directors, stars and celebrities often make such small and low-level mistakes, because everyone is alienated from tradition.
