The Spring Festival Gala is a very good memory for people after 80s and 90s. When I was a child, there were very few TV programs, and the annual Spring Festival Gala was the big show of the New Year. Before the New Year's Eve, people would discuss whose programs they liked to watch and who would be on the Spring Festival Gala. After watching the Spring Festival Gala, they would also discuss the content of the Spring Festival Gala tirelessly. Nowadays, the Spring Festival Gala is blamed by many people, but there are still a lot of people who insist on watching it.
From the first Spring Festival Gala to now, it has gone through more than thirty years. In these thirty years, the old man may have passed away; the young man carrying a big radio and wearing bell-bottom pants may have already danced in the square; the children who were still receiving red envelopes have now formed their own families, hugging their children and watching the Spring Festival Gala together.
The four-hour Spring Festival Gala doesn't reflect everyone's memories, just as you and I don't really pay much attention to who's cleaning the glass of the skyscrapers, we can only see their shadows in the air.
But the Spring Festival Gala has become a part of life, a part of the memory of our parents, and a part of our memory. Spring Festival Gala is like many things in life, you do not do it because you like it, just a habit, every year there are many people from the opening to see unforgettable night, to be considered a kind of New Year's feeling.
We are not in order to see the program and watch the Spring Festival Gala, but in order to see the Spring Festival Gala and watch the program, the Spring Festival Gala is a kind of activity to accompany the family, a family New Year's Eve to watch the party together. Good can be appreciated together, not good can be spit together, and family members to watch together, enjoy the warmth of being together.
Nowadays, watching the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve seems to have become an agreed custom, if you don't take a look at the Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve, you will always feel that you are missing out on something, or you will feel that you are not celebrating the New Year. The Spring Festival Gala has become a custom for Chinese people, an indelible custom.
