How different is the opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics?

The opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics is different from other places, with short opening time, countdown of 24 solar terms, admission order and so on.

First of all, the opening ceremony was short.

Compared with the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the Winter Olympics is more concise and shorter, but it is full of excitement and technology.

Second, twenty-four solar terms countdown

It is a unique romance in China to change the traditional pure digital countdown to the twenty-four solar terms countdown with China characteristics, and finally stop in beginning of spring, where everything begins and moves towards the future together.

Third, the order of admission

Greece, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, was the first to appear, while Italy, the host country of the next Winter Olympics, was the second to last, and China, the host country, was the last to appear. Other countries do not use English alphabetical order, but Chinese stroke order. My home is my phone, and countries form the order of strokes.
