The summer calendar produced in Xia and Shang Dynasties takes the moon's profit and loss period (now called the first lunar month) as a month, and a year is divided into twelve months, starting with the day when the moon is not seen (the first lunar month) and taking the return period from winter to the sun (now called the tropic year or the solar year, later called the solar year) as a year, and setting leap months to adjust the lunar year.
On the eve of the founding of New China,1September 27th, 949, China People's Political Consultative Conference officially designated the Lunar New Year as the "Spring Festival", so many people still call it the Spring Festival.
