Chapter 374: The Olympics and Hanfu

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard for Cole Marjorie to believe that China is so prosperous and powerful.

He didn't say anything more to Paul Martin, and when he came to China, he would naturally be shocked.

……

At 20 o'clock in the evening of August 8, the opening ceremony of the 29th Olympic Games of BJ, which attracted worldwide attention, was held in the National Stadium (Bird's Nest).

The opening ceremony was attended by more than 91,000 spectators and dignitaries from many heads of state.

Outside the stadium, it was crowded and lively.

At night, the National Stadium in the shape of the "Bird's Nest" is brightly lit and brilliant.

China has been preparing for a long time to host the Olympic Games.

The large-scale theatrical performances at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games showed the world the glorious civilization of China for 5,000 years, from the four major inventions of papermaking, movable type printing, compass and gunpowder, to calligraphy, Kunqu opera, Peking opera and Chinese painting, and from the Maritime Silk Road to the modern "starry sky".

Such a Chinese-style, ingenious design is simply a visual feast with the charm of civilization as the content, giving people a strong shock and allowing the world to better understand China!

The Olympic Movement, which has a history of more than 2,000 years, and the splendid Chinese culture, which has been inherited for more than 5,000 years, complement each other and jointly write a magnificent new chapter in human civilization.

At this time, more than 90,000 people at the opening ceremony and the global audience who were watching the live broadcast were all shocked.

Especially those foreigners who don't know much about China are even more shocked and dumbfounded.

While sighing at the splendid greatness of Chinese culture, I can't help but be deeply attracted.

"This is the essence of a country with a 5,000-year-old civilization, which is really shocking!" An American viewer said with envy.

The United States has only been founded for more than 200 years, and most of this time has been a time of oppression of other peoples, full of violence and bloodshed. An American who is truly full of a sense of justice will be ashamed!

At this moment, how can Americans not envy China when they see that there is so much splendid culture, even though Chinese culture is only the tip of the iceberg......

The overseas network is even more boiling at this time.

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games was shocking and spectacular, showing the glorious civilization of China for 5,000 years!

Many foreigners have the idea of studying in China.

Learn about Chinese history and culture......

……

……

In the audience, Paul Martin had a complicated expression, and he was ashamed of his previous paranoid opinion.

"Today I see a different China! After 30 years of development, China is no longer what it used to be, and it is even more developed than the United Kingdom!! ”

"China's glorious civilization is even more shocking and enviable!"

"This is a great country, a country to be envied and awe-inspired!"

Paul Martin's friend Cole Marjorie couldn't help but nod his head again and again when he heard this, these days of experience have given him a rough understanding of China, no country in the world can rise as quickly as China in such a short period of time, and achieve world-renowned achievements!

But it doesn't seem right to say "rise"!

To be precise, it should be "revival"!

In China's 5,000-year history, China has been the world's largest power for most of the time!

The Roman Empire in Europe was strong, but the fall of the Roman Empire was precisely because of the northern attack on the Xiongnu during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in China, forcing the Xiongnu to move westward, and then a remnant of the Xiongnu robbed the territory of the Germans, and the Germans could not beat the remnants of the Huns, so they ran to destroy the Roman Empire, although the Roman Empire at that time was already very rotten, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, which shows how powerful China is in history!

By the Tang Dynasty, China's GDP accounted for 58% of the world's total, and the second place, the Eastern Roman Empire, accounted for only 9%.

By the Song Dynasty, China's economy accounted for more than 60% of the world's total.

Now, China has once again achieved great rejuvenation, and its GDP has reached the world's first, reaching 22 trillion US dollars, more than double the US 10.6 trillion US dollars!

What's even more frightening is that China is still growing at a rapid pace of 15 percent.

However, the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008 led to a decline in national strength and economic regression in the United States, while Western countries in Europe also suffered from it, and the economy became sluggish.

Global financial centers, high-end manufacturing centers, and technology centers are all shifting to China.

Just ask you if you are convinced!

……

With the explosion of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games, Wujiang Group has become one of the biggest winners.

Wujiang Group is the largest sponsor of the 08 Olympic Games, and has won the title of Douyin advertising and the right to in-depth cooperation.

You can see a lot of Douyin advertising banners in the Bird's Nest Stadium, including the overseas version of TikTok.

The host will also emphasize and recommend everyone to use Douyin or Tik Tok software to watch live broadcasts.

It can be said that this Olympic Games directly pushed the popularity of Douyin to the highest.

Even after the opening ceremony, there will be many wonderful program clips on Douyin, so that many people who don't have time to watch the whole opening ceremony can understand the highlights of the opening ceremony in their free time or fragmented time.

As Douyin becomes more and more popular, people have gradually begun to realize the commercial value of Douyin.

After all, if you have fans and traffic, you can make money, which is already a recognized fact.

Although live streaming has not yet emerged, there is money to be made by receiving gifts and playing PK in live broadcasts, or releasing short videos.

During the Olympic Games, many Internet celebrities came to the vicinity of the Bird's Nest Stadium to do outdoor live broadcasts.

Foreigners who came to China for tourism were very surprised when they saw this.

In their country, the communication network is still only 3G, and it cannot do outdoor live broadcast at all.

This can't help but make them feel the strength of China again.

They don't know how many times they have been surprised when they came to China.

Zhou Qinghong is sweet-looking, a small Internet celebrity with more than 100,000 fans, she likes Hanfu very much, since watching the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, her heart is very excited, and the idea of promoting Hanfu can't help but emerge in her mind.

She told her friends that she wanted to wear Hanfu outside the Bird's Nest and promote Hanfu culture.

So on the second day of the opening ceremony, Zhou Qinghong put on his beloved Hanfu and came to the outside of the Bird's Nest Gymnasium and started an outdoor live broadcast.

"Oh ~ beauty, your clothes are so beautiful!!"

In the crowd of onlookers, a foreigner took out his mobile phone and said while taking pictures.

"Thank you!" Zhou Qinghong smiled and nodded in thanks, paused, and then asked, "Then do you know what kind of clothing I am wearing?" ”

"Kimono ???" The foreigner said subconsciously, but after thinking about it, he quickly shook his head, although he felt that this dress was very similar to a kimono, but it should not be a kimono, after all, this is China, although he doesn't know much about China's history, but he also knows that Japan invaded China in World War II......

"It's definitely not a kimono, it's a traditional Chinese costume, but I don't know what it's called." The foreigner said.

When Zhou Qinghong heard this, she felt a little embarrassed and unhappy.

The current foreigners only know the kimono, but they don't know the Hanfu of our country, which makes Zhou Qinghong even more determined that he must promote the Hanfu culture in the future and let more foreigners know Hanfu!

In the live broadcast room, many viewers were indignant.

"It's so embarrassing, is the popularity of our Hanfu so low abroad?"

"It's really low, very few foreigners know Hanfu, but the kimono is very famous abroad, and foreigners will admit their mistakes, which is understandable!"

"Cao! The kimono is considered to be the oldest, but it is developed from Hanfu clothing! Netizens said indignantly.

"Our country can't only pay attention to the development of the economy, but also pay attention to traditional culture~ For example, Hanfu, I think it is necessary for our country to vigorously promote it. Hanfu is an important part of traditional Chinese culture and a treasure of traditional Chinese culture. Every festival, you can wear Hanfu and inherit the beauty of thousands of years of China......"

"Yes, I raise my hands to support! If you look at other people's Japan, you know how to promote Japanese culture, and there are many Japanese women who often wear kimonos, and many foreigners know kimonos! We should also let foreigners know about our Chinese Hanfu. Carry forward the Hanfu culture and prosper my country of etiquette! ”

“……”

Zhou Qinghong began to introduce to foreigners at this time: "I am not wearing a kimono, but a Hanfu. The Japanese kimono was actually developed from our Chinese Hanfu costumes. Chinese Hanfu has been inherited for thousands of years, starting with the Yellow Emperor and prepared by Yao Shun ......"

When the foreigner heard this, he suddenly realized: "Oh, it turned out to be called Hanfu!" ”

Afterwards, the foreigner gave a thumbs up and praised: "Hanfu is very good, very beautiful!" By the way, can I take a picture with you? ”

Zhou Qinghong first expressed her gratitude, and then said: "You can take a group photo, no problem!" ”

After a while, after the two took a group photo, Zhou Qinghong waved goodbye to the foreigner.

At this time, the popularity in her live broadcast room became very high, with 40,000 people online.

Many people are swiping gifts to show their support for her.

When Zhou Qinghong saw this popularity, she was suddenly excited in her heart.

She seems to have found the traffic password, which is to promote Hanfu culture.

This allows you to fulfill your desires and make money at the same time.

Immediately, she took her photographer friend and began to take the initiative to introduce Hanfu to foreign tourists......

What she never expected was that her live broadcast content today turned out to be popular, and at eight o'clock in the evening, it was on the top of Weibo hot search and Douyin hot search.

Many people watched her live broadcast and couldn't help but start to reflect on why our country's Hanfu is not as famous as Japan's kimono?

I'm afraid even Zhou Qinghong didn't expect that one of her live broadcasts would directly set off a boom in Chinese Hanfu!
