Short comment
The Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala is full of Beijing flavor and sense of the times
The success of the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala is due to its sense of the capital. The Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala fully demonstrated Beijing’s unique advantages as the capital. As a brand program, "Ambassador's Guest" has transformed from "Ambassador's New Year's Festival" in 2023 to "Ambassador's Treasure Family Banquet", using food as a medium to show Beijing's openness and tolerance. The success of this program has something to do with the gathering of foreign envoys in Beijing. In addition, the bronze sitting dragon unearthed from the ruins of Da'an Palace in Jinzhongdu and the famous glazed dragon kissing appeared at the party, which are all manifestations of the unique advantages of Beijing, the ancient city and capital.
The success of Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala is due to its sense of Beijing flavor. At this year's party, Feng Gong, who has appeared on the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala more than 10 times, brought the cross talk "Speaking of Beijing" to citizens and friends, experiencing "counting" Beijing's big city, small things , characteristic place names and the new look of the city; the song and dance "" Beijing's "Colorful Blooms", "My Hometown is Beijing", "Watch Beijing in a Big Show", "Swiss Returns to Zhengyang", etc. sang about the happiness of Beijing; the Beijing New Year Temple Fair built on the second floor of the stage, intangible cultural heritage culture and traditional customs complement each other, bringing the audience to Return to the lively temple fair in old Beijing. These works are deeply rooted in the land of Beijing and have a strong flavor of Beijing.
The success of the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala also benefits from its sense of the times. It is the Year of the Dragon, and this year's Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala takes "Dragon Walking in Beijing" as the main theme. By looking for five dragons including the turquoise dragon from the Archaeological Museum of China, the audience can appreciate Beijing's rich "dragon" elements. Other programs, such as the sketch "Under the Umbrella", are based on a very popular photo on Weibo in 2023, and the sketch "Don't Lie to Me" focuses on the current new type of financial fraud. These programs that reflected reality gave the party a distinct sense of the times.
Needless to say, there are many other reasons for the success of the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala, such as its cultural flavor, festive nature, and its feelings of family and country and warmth... We believe that the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala, which has been repeatedly successful, will be more successful in the future. More exciting and more confident - just like the slogan of this year's party: "My spring depends on me."
