The current Spring Festival Gala = annual summary of Internet memes
The Spring Festival Gala we once looked up to is not as good as the last one. In recent years, every Spring Festival Gala has been a large-scale complaint gathering among netizens. The Spring Festival Gala program team also put a lot of thought into it. They often collected hot Internet memes over the past year and compiled them into the program. They thought they would resonate, but unexpectedly they became disgusted.
Thankless. From a fundamental analysis, what everyone dislikes is that the Spring Festival Gala is becoming less and less innovative. Take the old joke that everyone has played to death and has no popularity, and bring it back to the Spring Festival Gala stage to whip the corpse.
I never lost in the Spring Festival Gala
Everyone still remembers that the Spring Festival Gala was the one that created hot memes!
"Eating Noodles", "Superborn Guerillas", "Adventures in Working", "Selling Kidnappings"... So many familiar jokes have been born, some of which have even been engraved into the genes of the Chinese people. If you can't match "Palace Jade" The next sentence of "Liquor" is likely to be suspected of being a spy.
Highly popular hits such as: "Unforgettable Tonight", "A Fire in Winter", "Meet in 1998", "Go Home Often", "Three Auspicious Treasures", "Where Has the Time Gone"... still to this day. It's a classic.
The dance-type "Avalokitesvara", I still remember the shocking feeling when I watched it.
Of course, the Spring Festival Gala in recent years has also had surprising programs. The 2022 Spring Festival Gala dance "Only Green" has a long, elegant and ancient charm, which is very beautiful and has amazed many people. The 2023 Spring Festival Gala song "It's Mom, It's Daughter" moved thousands of viewers in front of the screen.
Local channels have been more eye-catching in the past two years, such as the Henan Spring Festival Gala. They have seized on the path of traditional cultural innovation, and a number of high-quality programs represented by the dance "Tang Palace Night Banquet" have become popular. It also shows that the people’s eyes are sharp, and programs that are innovative and meaningful will definitely be seen. It should be aesthetically pleasing, cultured and interesting, so as to fully display the charm of our culture and elevate the audience's taste and aesthetics to a higher level.
Conclusion
We will not lose our outlook just because of a funny dance. Its popularity must have its audience. But I want to say that there is an endless stream of Internet memes, and today’s hot spots will be covered by new hot spots in the blink of an eye. Can the Spring Festival Gala still catch up with this wave of traffic? With such a big stage and so many resources to mobilize, why bother eating the steamed buns that have been chewed in short videos? It is difficult to make it suitable for all ages, but at least let the audience eat something good, change their thinking, bring out the old and bring out the new, and produce more eye-catching programs. This is the right way to ensure the longevity of the Spring Festival Gala.
