The national wind welcomes the Winter Olympics and shows cultural confidence.

On that day in beginning of spring, the Winter Olympics opened. On the evening of February 4th, the eyes of the world once again focused on the "Bird's Nest" in Beijing, how the water of the Yellow River moved to the sky with boldness and boldness, and the novelty and gentleness of the Olympic rings. In the romantic story of ice and snow, the opening ceremony of the 24th Beijing Winter Olympics once again amazed the world. When the "national wind" meets the "Winter Olympics", it shows a long-standing traditional culture in a silent place, conveys the essence of openness and tolerance, and shows the cultural confidence of the Chinese nation.

The unique "China element" has given the world China a "width". The Winter Olympics is not only a global event for athletes to show their competitive strength and carry forward the Olympic spirit, but also a visual feast to show China culture to the whole world. With the ingenious combination of seal cutting and Chinese characters, the elegant and agile emblem of the Winter Olympics "Winter Dream" and "Leap" came into being. The national treasure panda and the traditional red lantern turned around gorgeously, and the soft and lovely mascots "Ice Shield" and "Edelweiss" appeared in front of us; Natural history and culture complement each other in the Winter Olympics venues. Ice Ribbon, Xueyan, Snow Youlong and other Winter Olympics venues display "China elements" ... In the process of civilization development of more than 5,000 years, the Chinese nation has created a profound and splendid culture, and traditional elements such as Tongxin Jade, Changxin Palace Lantern in the Western Han Dynasty and bronze ritual vessels have also been implanted in the design of Olympic medals, kindling lamps and kindling platforms. The emergence of these "national wind" elements. This is the Olympic Games for China people, and it is a grand event with unique China flavor. They bear rich oriental cultural heritage, tell touching stories of China and show the cultural confidence of the Chinese nation.

The "China Wisdom" from the main road to the simple road shows the world the "breadth" of China. At the opening ceremony, the guiding cards of all participating delegations formed a huge snowflake platform. As the torch was lit among the snowflakes, the last surprise of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics was announced: the last torch was the main torch. Replacing ignition with no ignition and replacing raging fire with slight fire have realized an ignition innovation in the Olympic history, which contains the great wisdom of "a single spark can start a prairie fire" and conveys the great concept of low carbon, environmental protection and green. At the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games, classic pictures such as Li Ning flying to light the flame were deeply imprinted in the audience's mind. Traditional elements such as scrolls, operas, the Silk Road, rites and music, Tai Chi and so on run through the opening ceremony, and the sleeping oriental lion is eager to show his pride to the world. /kloc-Today, 0/4 years later, China is truly powerful. We don't need grand scenes to show our cultural confidence. Instead, we use the 24 solar terms to count down, arrange the appearance order of athletes from all over the world in Chinese characters, and use a small torch to convey the Olympic spirit and environmental protection concept, show the tolerance of a big country, and convey China's more calm posture and deeper cultural self-confidence.

The cohesive "China Voice" shows the world the "temperature" of China. When Ran Ran, the Olympic flag, was raised, a group of innocent children dressed in tiger-headed shirts and shoes sang Olympic carols to the world on behalf of China. These 44 children come from Fuping County, Hebei Province, a national poverty-stricken county that just got rid of poverty and took off its hat in 2020. Natural songs, innocent smiles, and children in the mountains have touched countless people with their simple and ethereal voices. I hope the people of the world can see their truest appearance through this stage. The opening ceremony used a lot of high-tech sound and light, but it didn't make people feel cold, but it was full of intimacy. When the children's trumpeter played "My People, My Motherland" in the Bird's Nest, 100 representatives from all walks of life from 56 ethnic groups across the country handed the national flag to the flag-raising platform. In just 14 years, the theme slogan "Let's face the future together" is so pertinent, from spare no effort to show "my country" to show "our people" with ease, from "opening the door" in the past to "opening the mind" now. As the eyes of the world focus on China tonight, we show a more solid cultural self-confidence and inclusive contemporary China-not a long history of 5,000 years, but the voice of China at this moment.

The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward: "Cultural self-confidence is the most basic, profound and lasting force for the development of a country and a nation." From the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games telling the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization in the world language to this year's Winter Olympics telling the understanding, expectation and prospect of human destiny in the new era, from "I" to "we", from "talking about history" to "looking forward to the future", the cultural self-confidence of the Chinese nation has been realized and sublimated in the construction of human destiny, conveying 65,438+.
