What are the characteristics of the opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics?

The opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics is characterized by simplicity, safety and excitement.

At 8: 00 pm on February 4, after performing for about half an hour before the ceremony, the opening ceremony of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics officially kicked off at the Bird's Nest National Stadium. Simplicity, safety and excitement are the requirements for hosting the Beijing Winter Olympics, and they are also the main features of the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony lasted about 100 minutes, and the overall program arrangement was much more compact than that of previous Olympic Games. Zhang Yimou said in an interview that compared with the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, this time, we will not show off our skills to show off our muscles, not just to look good, but to think about what can most impress people and best reflect the feelings of China people. ?

In the words of Director Zhang Yimou, this is an opening ceremony with China culture every minute. The countdown before the opening ceremony uses the 24 solar terms countdown in an ingenious way, with beautiful scenery and classic solar terms poems, which also echoes that this is the 24th Winter Olympics. ?

"Winter Olympics in Science and Technology" was the key word that Zhang Yimou, the general director, had previously spoiled to the media. This element is first reflected in the huge ground screen covering the infield of the Bird's Nest, which is also the largest ground screen in the world at present. ?

Snowflakes at the Opening Ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics

After the entrance ceremony, the tight opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics is coming to an end. The huge high-tech ground screen of the Bird's Nest is still working. Under the dance of countless small snowflakes, a huge solid snowflake slowly rose from the center of the venue. ?

This is a big snowflake composed of the names of all participating countries in the Winter Olympics, surrounded by olive branches, pure and quiet, echoing the five rings of ice and snow above. ?

Hundreds of young people from all over the world walked side by side in the stadium, and the long river of images slowly spread out, showing the moments of life of people and ice and snow athletes from all over the world. This is a picture that pays tribute to ordinary people. The Chinese knots on both sides of the picture scroll changed shape, and finally completed the theme slogan of this Winter Olympics-hand in hand with the future.
