Beijing Olympic Games Opening Ceremony Essay

Watch the holy fire ignited, blessing for China I finally waited for today, this exciting day, the Olympic flame will be lit in Beijing, 6:30 I was excited to turn on the TV ready to watch the opening ceremony. At 8:00, the Opening Ceremony started on time. Every program was breathtaking with Chinese flavor. My favorite program was the interesting "movable character printing", which was made up of small squares to form beautiful shapes, and showed the evolution of the character "和". There was also a lively Peking Opera puppet show, a powerful Taekwondo show called "Nature", and a graceful display of "Flying", which demonstrated the history and culture of China. The exquisite 'Long Scroll' showed the progress and development of our country. Then the athletes entered. Wow! There were so many people! There are more than a hundred countries! The athletes were energetic and passionate as they waved to the leaders and spectators. Each country wore their unique costumes, like a costume show. The exciting moment is coming soon, the sacred flame will finally be lit, who is the last torchbearer? Who will be the last torchbearer? Will it be the little giant Yao Ming, or the little flying man Liu Xiang? I think it is the prince of gymnastics Li Ning or the queen of diving Guo Jingjing. At this moment, Grandma said, "Look! The last torchbearer is Xu Haifeng!" I looked up and saw Xu Haifeng running into the Bird's Nest with the torch in his hand. Oops! I guessed wrong. However, Xu Haifeng used the torch in his hand to light Gao Min's torch, and so Li Xiaoshuang, Jim Xugang, Zhang Jun, Chen Zhong, Sun Jinfang also passed the torch in turn, and finally, the sacred flame lit the torch of gymnast Li Ning. He was suspended in mid-air by a rope, as if an astronaut was walking in space. He 'flew' along the bird's nest week, and then lit a horizontal iron bar, suddenly, click, the sacred fire lit a large auspicious clouds wrapped around the red ribbon torch, the sacred light illuminated the entire bird's nest. All of a sudden, the colorful fireworks, forming a five rings, very spectacular. I wish for China: Go China! Beijing cheer! Let's go for the Olympics! Time flies, in the blink of an eye has come to 2008. On this day, the Beijing stadium is full of people, full of seats. Today, the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games will be held here. Eight years ago, we went through a difficult road to bid for the Olympic Games, in the "Five Rings" spirit of inspiration, in the national people *** with efforts, today we ushered in this exciting moment. Look, two gold medal singers sang the Olympic song. The loud singing conveyed the uplifting rhythm to every audience present and to the world. There were thousands of actors and actresses dancing in the square, and everyone moved so well and skillfully. After the song, a few elderly people came up and played tai chi. In the blink of an eye, and a few more, and a few more ...... people reached several hundred. Hundreds of people together on the stage playing taijiquan. At first, the movement is very slow, gradually, the speed is getting faster and faster. The audience on the seat, also with their gradual fast movement mood also excited. The hall was silent. Shortly after, thunderous applause erupted. At the same time, seven or eight men came up and stacked up Luohan. Then, another group of people came up, a blink of an eye stacked up three Luohan, like three stakes, standing there is not moving. After a while, like receiving an order, the three "stakes" twisted together. Oh, this time it looks not like a stake but a willow gently brushed by the wind, is so soft, so floating, people have unlimited reverie. With one spectacular program after another, accompanied by loud applause, I am convinced that this Olympics will be the best ever. June 26, 2008 Beijing Olympic Games slogan was officially unveiled, the Chinese slogan: One World One Dream; English slogan: One World One Dream. according to the media's news keywords: Chinese and foreign experts praised the slogan embodies the essence of traditional Chinese culture, condensed the cry of the heart, to capture the essence of the Olympic spirit, playing the strongest voice of the times, etc., listen to let me! Trance, confused: not just a slogan, how to reflect so many connotations? To be honest, for the dancing Beijing that side of the Chinese seal of the emblem, I do not think where good. The idea is good, the seal as a traditional medium to disseminate the spirit and meaning of Chinese culture is naturally not wrong, but the shape is really not complimentary, I believe that can be done better. The key problem is that this thing can not be used purely artistic scale to consider, and the fact is: very quickly, in Beijing Liulichang can be seen in the field has been put up a banner: Beijing Olympic Chinese seal designer seal carver Mr. XX on-site treatment of the seal ...... extenuating circumstances, fame into productivity is enviable good thing, the public how to understand so much, TV The public does not know so much, the TV has seen, the newspaper glimpsed, that is the supreme. No wonder that in the spring of a book writer in Beijing joked that one day we spend XX million to buy a chance to perform at the Olympic Games opening ceremony, that's much stronger than your whole life than the effect of penmanship: the value of sure times longer ah. But the Olympic theme is more complicated. It must, first of all, be able to reflect the will to integrate with the international community, to be internationalized and Olympic; secondly, it must express our ideology, stick to the national conditions and keep up with the times; and again, it has to stand at the height of history and the times, relying on the background of our nation, and express the so-called spirit of traditional Chinese culture in a highly condensed manner. This is enough to shut us, the people, up, which is not an easy thing to do. No wonder the media called this an unprecedented public opinion poll, 210,000 respondents, 210,000 ah comrades, this is how to imagine a number, fortunately we are many, in those small countries in Europe is simply unthinkable. So, the final conclusion is, no matter whether it is good or bad, the theme word filtered out of the astronomical number, it must be the essence of the essence. How else could it be worthy of the two hundred and ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine that were eliminated? At a cold glance, the slogan is just too simple. The media uses the word simplicity, but I think it's actually simplicity. One world, one dream, it's not surprising that it came out of a preschooler's mouth. But coming from the Worker's Stadium, and being affixed to the monument of the historic Beijing Olympics, it's a different story. Like a longing for spiritual life of the beggar may not have the money to buy tickets so along the Forbidden City's high walls to climb said not allowed to throw to the pedestrians and tourists a "unusual way", but this word has only been piled up by the money of the Metersbonwe there to become a popular language, only to become the advertising company to concentrate the essence of the creative copywriting. What is the essence of Chinese culture? Which school of thought is the essence? Confucianism? Taoism? Legalism? The School of Names? Zen? Which word is the key? Mediocrity? Wufei? King of Hegemony? Non-offense? Harmony? I think it is difficult to unify Chinese culture into any one slogan, and there is nothing that can carry the so-called essence of Chinese culture. This is something you can see from different angles, like a diamond, all facets are shining. But because of the "embodiment", but also do not have to be catty, a slogan only, you have to force it to infinite richness, meaning extremely deep and wide, in any era, any country is absolutely impossible. Only now the media publicity is a bit excessive, in turn, easy to make people suspicious, make people resentful. Of course, from the point of view of the media, the media also deserve sympathy. If also like the author of such a credulous, then the unlucky bastard was not early blocked. Even if he is not blocked, how to cater to the general audience? China finally ushered in the Olympic Games, we will never forget the night when all the families celebrated together, I remember our family also set off firecrackers that day. And when business comes next, it's really harder for us Chinese to do it right. Last fall in the Great Hall of the People, Wang Qishan said frankly to reporters, the idea is always good, once the implementation, do it is really difficult, you can not even imagine. The embarrassment and dilemma come not only from building facilities such as the Bird's Nest, but also from many financial and personnel factors. So it is only right that we should give the greatest understanding and support to the Government. As Zhao Benshan said in his skit: You stomp and you are numb! However, there is a degree for everything, right? You can't just say what foreigners say and what experts say is good. Doesn't the voice of the media need to go through its own brain? When I look at the accolades of those slogans, I feel numb. The media never keeps a low profile on such things. Because the nation is secretive, specializes in good words, and loves to win and fear to lose. And campers are violently opportunistic: a big basket of Chinese culture, what all to the inside, until really can not be loaded, springtime also do not hesitate to leak. Think back to the closing ceremony in Athens, Zhang Yimou a few minutes to vomit performance: see this, know that there is a "hero" of the people of the country will be able to gladly accept the Zhang big director's masterpiece in Hollywood times the fact of cold reception. With all the exaggeration, thinking of the sweet but not remembering the bitter, forgetting the pain after a good sore, I really don't know what kind of a world we will still desire and have, a dream of whoever it is. And how long will this dream last
