How do the civilized gestures of Beijing Olympic Games reflect the traditional culture of China?

A civilized gesture of cheering for the Olympics and cheering for China.

Recently, the launching ceremony of "Come on for the Olympics, Come on for China" jointly organized by the Central Civilization Office, the Ministry of Education, BOCOG and CCTV was held in the Media Center of CCTV. Li Ning, Dean of Beijing Etiquette College, introduced the meaning of civilized gestures in the stadium.

"Applause, thumbs up, fists clenched" and other actions will become the civilized gestures of "Come on for the Olympics, Come on for China".

Applause mainly uses body movements to express welcome, thanks, support, praise and encouragement. China culture is a kind of introverted culture, and it usually applauds others. In a broader sense, this action is most suitable to express China people's "Isn't it a pleasure to have friends from afar?" The tradition of hospitality. The thumbs-up with both hands represents praise in China traditional culture, is a traditional gesture of China people to express "best" and "best", represents affirmation, praise and admiration, and is an extension of China traditional culture in modern culture. Fist-making is the embodiment of people's will and determination, and it is more a unity in China's traditional culture.

The first gesture-clap your hands twice (synchronous slogan: Olympics ...)

The second step of gesture-make a fist with both hands, thumb up, arm forward and upward (synchronous slogan: Come on! )

The third step of gesture-clap twice (synchronous slogan: China ...)

The fourth step of gesture-make a fist with both hands and extend your arms upward (synchronous slogan: Come on! )

Stretching one's arms when making a fist strengthens the influence and appreciation of strong movements. As a traditional culture in China, it has such an introverted feature, which means the positive significance of cheering, celebrating and calling, and the publicity brought by its emotions adds the significance of group unity. Therefore, our team of experts adopted these three elements as the action elements of "Come on Olympics, Come on China". This action has a cross-cultural function and can be accepted and appreciated by any culture and language, including religious beliefs and people with disabilities.
