Opening time of winter Olympics

The opening time of the 2022 Winter Olympics is February 4, 2022.

In 2022, the Winter Olympics and the Spring Festival in China collided. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics on February 4th is the 24 solar terms of beginning of spring in China, which can be described as "a year's plan lies in spring" and "all colors are always in spring".

Spring is synonymous with hope and beauty. Against the background of global war and epidemic, Beijing successfully hosted the Winter Olympics, which showed China's strength and self-confidence. At the same time, the Olympic Games in the Spring Festival is full of China flavor.

The flagpoles of national flags at the closing ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics are the luminous poles at the opening ceremony.

In the performance of "beginning of spring" at the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, the long pole props that amazed the global audience were transformed and appeared at the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics on the evening of February 20th, becoming a luminous flagpole supporting the national flags of participating countries, reflecting the concept of thrifty hosting the Olympics.

"There are still many props and costumes that are recycled. Some explosions have become hidden models, and some first models have become classic models, testing the audience's eyesight. " David, the chief commander of the Gehua team, the general production organization of the opening and closing ceremonies, who is responsible for prop support, introduced.

From explosion to concealment, it refers to 400 9.5-meter-long flexible luminous poles used in beginning of spring. The creativity of this prop is a unique skill treasured by director Zhang Yimou for many years. It is soft, dreamy and subtle, and it is a sharp weapon to show China's traditional aesthetic scene. It takes a lot of effort to make it, and it's a pity to throw it away after only one use.

So the director decided to cut it short, from 9.5 meters to 2.85 meters, and made 120 flagpoles. These flagpoles appear on the stage from the speech of the President of Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee to the speech of the President of the International Olympic Committee, and they emit white light during the extinguishing of the Olympic torch until the end.
