Reflections on the Opening Ceremony of the Asian Paralympic Games
September 22nd, 20 years ago, was a day that all China people were proud of! The 11th Beijing Asian Games (1990), which symbolizes the "unity, friendship and progress" of Asian people, was grandly opened. This is the first time that China has hosted the Asian Games at its own home. In this Asian Games, after a fierce competition of 14 days, China won the gold medal 183, accounting for 3/5 of all the gold medals, silver medal 107 and bronze medal 5 1. The overall level has great advantages in Asia. South Korea, which ranked second in the gold medal list, won 54 gold medals, not as good as China's 1/3. "In Asia, mountains are high heads; In Asia, rivers are like blood ... ". At the Asian Games in Beijing, this song "Asian Hero" sung by Liu Huan and Wei Wei became an instant hit and spread all over the country, and it is still widely sung today. At that time, this song "Asian Hero" really inspired people's fighting spirit and inspired people to make continuous progress. It has been 20 years since 1990 Beijing Asian Games to 20 10 Guangzhou Asian Games. But the melody of Asian glory is still so high. Foreigners say China is a sleeping lion. Once he wakes up, he becomes extremely powerful. 1990, although we have made some achievements in reform and opening up, reform and opening up and economic construction are still in the exploratory stage. In that year, our total GDP was1690.92 billion RMB, which was still the middle level in the world. Since the 1 1 Beijing Asian Games was held. Great changes have taken place in China. This change is to let the world know about us and the world through the Asian Games. While seeing the gap in the world. Found our confidence. 1 1 Twenty years have passed since the Asian Games. What changes have taken place in China? In sports, we have made great progress. At the Guangzhou Asian Games, the China delegation put forward the goal of being the first in the gold medal list and medal list, but everyone thought it would be as easy as blowing off dust. In order to dilute the gold medal consciousness of the Asian Games, the organizing committee also put forward the slogan of "playing the Asian Games". The word "play" reflects the relaxed mentality of China sportsmen. Guangzhou Asian Games bravely put forward the slogan of "Playing the Asian Games". If it was 20 years ago, who would dare to underestimate the enemy? In terms of economic strength, China is a developing country, and the level of production technology and scientific development is far from that of western developed countries, especially the technology close to life and production. But this is precisely one of the sources of China's rapid economic development, and it is precisely because of the big gap that we have more room for progress, which is the so-called late-comer advantage. Over the past 30 years of reform and opening up, China has made remarkable achievements in economic development. Over the years, in the face of the international financial crisis, China's economic growth rate has been maintained at around 8%. In 2009, the GDP reached 49 1000 billion US dollars, more than 9 times that of 1989. The successful hosting of the Asian Games is a great contribution of the people of China to Asian sports, a tonic to invigorate the spirit, and a comprehensive embodiment of China's increasing comprehensive national strength and China's economic development, political civilization, cultural progress, social harmony and national unity. It not only promotes the development of sports, but also promotes the development of economy. 20 10 Guangzhou will hold the Asian Games, which will make Guangzhou, a metropolis, move towards a more brilliant tomorrow! The Asian Games flame came to China again after 20 years, and it was lit in Guangzhou tonight. Neighbors meet in the afternoon to remind each other and watch the opening ceremony in the evening! Everyone wants to go together! At 8 o'clock in the evening, I sat by the TV and watched quietly. The sound of TV coming from next door knows that everyone is watching the grand opening ceremony. Ah! Tonight is destined to be another sleepless night! A creative "boiling ceremony" attracted me. The opening ceremony kicked off with a drop of water. The Guangzhou girl sitting on a banana leaf fell from the sky. A drop of holy water she brought into the sea officially "set sail" with the audience. The center of the stage was filled with 10 cm thick water, and the actors in the stage entered with splashing water. On the side closest to the audience, there is also a waterway about 5 meters wide and across the audience, with a water depth of more than 3 meters. More than 500 actors dressed as kapok petals kicked off the opening ceremony. Look at these. It's really exciting. What a beautiful picture this is! What excites me is the 600-meter fireworks, which really set a record. With the "countdown" command "10, 9, 8, 7...0", the red cotton-shaped fireworks in Guangzhou are blooming around Guang Zhouta from bottom to top, rising layer by layer every 1.5 seconds. The highest discharge point in Guang Zhouta is about 600 meters, which will set a record for the highest fireworks discharge in the world. What excites people is the appearance of stars. In recent years, the theme song sung by Zhang Ziyi, an internationally renowned movie star, is very moving, and Lang Lang, the piano prince accompanying her, brings more freshness to people. Especially at the climax of the last fireworks, the famous singer Song Zu Ying presented a wonderful song for the audience and sang people's wishes. There are still many exciting things. It can be said that the opening ceremony of the Asian Games is very distinctive and there are many things to see! It shows the world what China has achieved in the past 20 years. In the long river of history, 20 years is only a short moment, but earth-shaking changes have taken place in China in these 20 years! From food, clothing, housing and transportation to culture and entertainment, there has been a qualitative leap. People can't talk about these changes, and there are not enough words. There is a reporter in the community. He has been engaged in sports reporting for many years, and this time he went to Guangzhou to report. When talking about this matter yesterday, he said that compared with the Beijing Asian Games 20 years ago, it is not the same in terms of venues, communication and other hardware facilities, event organization and service level. Only from the perspective of our readers, few people used computers to write manuscripts 20 years ago, let alone a large number of advanced interview "weapons" such as the internet and digital cameras. But now our "-weapons" are good. It's a "gun for gun"! During the conversation, his excitement was beyond words. He also told me that 9704 athletes from 45 Asian countries and regions will participate in the Asian Games, and many foreign guests will come to watch the games. Guangzhou is busy again this time! Over the years, many friends have come to our country and have been very lively. From the 2008 Olympic Games to the 20 10 World Expo, grand events followed, and people were bursting with popularity. This Asian Games will definitely be more lively and prosperous than before. This shows that our friends are all over the world and our good reputation is going global! At the thought of these, people's hearts will surge! The Asian Games has begun! In the next ten days, people will enjoy many wonderful games. How exciting it is! During the performance of the opening ceremony in Guangzhou, a large number of musical fountains appeared, and dozens of meters high water columns were regularly ejected with the rhythm of the music, giving all the audience concerned about the Guangzhou Asian Games a brand-new and three-dimensional opening ceremony performance! It is not surprising to use water on such a large scale, because there was a performance of water element in Athens Olympic Games, but the water element in the opening ceremony of Guangzhou Asian Games can be said to have been applied to a higher level. The water at the opening ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games was used to express various legends about the Aegean Sea, giving people a psychedelic color of sea level. The water element in the opening ceremony of Guangzhou Asian Games completely broke through the concept of plane, and showed a three-dimensional space in the form of a musical fountain, vividly representing water and the sky, and embodying the theme of the performance-water of life! Show the world the great vitality and vigor contained in water! Golden Sand Island, located on the Pearl River, was chosen as the home of the opening ceremony of the Guangzhou Asian Games, and the program of the opening ceremony just used a lot of water elements, which perfectly reflected the elements of China at the right time and place, and fully reflected the wisdom of the organizing committee for the opening ceremony. This arrangement adapts to local conditions, which not only gives people a refreshing performance of the three-dimensional water element, but also conveys a green concept of the Asian Games to the world. Proper use of water makes people feel the life and hope brought by water. At the same time, the performance once again tells the world that it is water that connects all continents and people in the world. Such ingenious arrangement is undoubtedly the crowning touch of the opening ceremony of the 10th Guangzhou Asian Games! The opening ceremony of Guangzhou Asian Games started at 20: 00 on1October 20th1kloc-0/12nd. The Asian Games attracted the attention of Guangzhou citizens and Chinese people because of its huge budget and unclear whereabouts of funds. It is reported that the fireworks display will be the most shocking part of the opening ceremony. This Asian Games will set off 6,543,800+6,000 fireworks, far exceeding the 80,000 fireworks of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and the 6,543,800 fireworks of the just-concluded Shanghai World Expo. The record fireworks display is due to its strong investment guarantee. The total budget of this Asian Games reached 654.38+022.6 billion yuan, which actually exceeded the 9 billion pounds of London Olympic Games in 2065.438+02. Guangzhou's 20 10 fiscal revenue plan is 79 billion yuan, which is not low, but it is hard to say that such a huge financial plan for the Asian Games is easy. In this regard, Jason Ming, chief financial officer of Guangzhou, explained that the investment in the operation of the games and venues was * * *13.6 billion yuan, and the remaining/kloc-0.9 billion yuan was the investment in infrastructure construction during the six years from 2005 to 20 10, of which 54.7 billion yuan was used for opening five subway lines and building roads and bridges18.5 billion yuan. The higher-level financial allocation is 3 billion, which can be ignored. Therefore, according to the statement, in order to hold the Asian Games, Guangzhou invested an average of 20 billion yuan every year from 2005 to 20 10. From 2005 to 2009, Guangzhou's local fiscal revenue was 3.71billion, 42.7 billion, 52.3 billion, 62.2 billion and 70.2 billion respectively, plus 79 billion planned for 20 10, totaling about 343.5 billion. In the past six years, Guangzhou has invested more than one-third of the local fiscal revenue for the Asian Games. In other words, the popular saying is that Guangzhou is the city strength of this Asian Games! At the end of last year, many members of the Standing Committee of Guangzhou Municipal People's Congress expressed dissatisfaction with the report of the municipal government on the preparations for the 20 10 Guangzhou Asian Games and the Asian Paralympic Games, and did not mention the source and destination of the funds, but in fact, the funds situation remained mysterious. For example, what is the total budget for this record fireworks show? No one can answer. Of course, this is also our tradition. From the Beijing Olympic Games to the Shanghai World Expo, and now to the Guangzhou Asian Games, we can only marvel at the spectacular performances and sigh that records have been broken again and again. When and where was the record of fireworks set by Guangzhou Asian Games broken? What will break the record of fireworks display next time? Hey, hey, you don't know, I don't know, God knows. However, we have every reason to believe that it will be extremely fast to break the record of fireworks display, because the relevant departments have always been very powerful! Just after the opening ceremony of the Guangzhou Asian Games, a netizen posted: "The opening speeches of the three leaders made the people of the whole country know this luckiest woman. Fortunately, she appeared in the live broadcast of the opening ceremony for such a long time (the sum of the time of the three leaders); However, my face froze with laughter, and my hands insisted on crossing in front of my lower abdomen, almost cramping. It's too difficult for her. " The smiling girl represents the enthusiasm of Guangzhou and even China for hosting the Asian Games. She gave the world a beautiful image. You did a good job. Wu's appearance, smile and attitude are very good, but from another side, we can see how strict the organizers are. In fact, sometimes people still need to be flexible. When I saw him appearing in the camera on TV, I was sure she was angry. She must be very angry. I tried to search on the internet today. Unexpectedly, she was really angry, and it was a fire. The "smiling sister" etiquette volunteers wearing white shirts and black coats received much attention after the opening ceremony. When watching the opening ceremony, I hardly saw the three leaders at that time. I kept looking at her and took a photo with my mobile phone. At that time, I joked that one night she had the highest photo rate. I didn't expect her to be really popular. Lovely martial arts! The real etiquette training, I want to tell you, smiling without showing your teeth is the embodiment of women's charm. When standing in front of people for a long time, close your lips, lift your lips, smile and look up at friends and relatives within 10 meters! Smiling will not be tired or stiff. However, the smiling girl's smile seems to be too professional, and it feels like entering a bank or a mobile hall. What is professional training? Didn't you say you have to grin no matter how bad your mood is? Looking at it is a smile, but the sense of distance is too strong. Because I know that you come from your career, not from your heart. I'm not saying that this etiquette is wrong, but I want to adopt a more comfortable feeling. You don't have to laugh, do you? Because although I really want to see the other person smile, I know this smile is fake when I think that the other person must squeeze out eight teeth. You don't have to hold your hand so tightly, do you? I know it feels elegant, but can it make people feel more comfortable? Why are you holding on so tightly? According to Wu Yi's explanation afterwards, they were not used to practicing smiling, because they usually don't show their teeth when they smile, but the teacher asked them to show at least eight teeth. Eyes should also be full of smiles, which makes people feel kind and warm. This kind of smile should not be too much. It should reflect the beauty of women and not be petty. The "firm smile" at the opening ceremony of the Asian Games made her instantly become the focus of the media. A Baidu search for the word "smiling girl" was amazing. All kinds of pictures, search results, Weibo flooded this lovely girl. In fact, since you are a volunteer, you should be unknown. How many volunteers are working harder behind this Asian Games? Everyone should take care of all the volunteers, not one person! The smile and posture are too stiff, and I believe many people have suffered for her. But her professionalism and superhuman endurance are very admirable. Etiquette training direction is a bit biased. Smiling is really "professional" Just smile. Do you have to show eight teeth? There is nothing wrong with crossing your hands in front of your lower abdomen. The problem is that it feels stiff and unnatural, and it is more comfortable to put it together gently. The same problem also appears in volunteers who separate athletes. Why do people keep jumping? Why not be natural? Etiquette should make people feel polite but kind, and now the feeling is that people have a sense of distance In Golden Sand Island in the night, the lights illuminate the sky, so that visitors from different places who have never been to Guangzhou can appreciate the charm of the metropolis of this era! The16th Asian Games is held in such a beautiful and contemporary metropolis, which is in line with its internationalization and the vigorous spirit of modern sports! At the beginning of the lights on both sides of the Pearl River, floats float up and down in the Pearl River, and Guangzhou presents a prosperous and harmonious scene to people in Asia and the world. I believe that at this moment, the whole world will have a deeper understanding of the brand-new Guangzhou through the Asian Games. The tall TV tower stands by the Pearl River in colorful clothes, echoing the main stadium of the opening ceremony. With the luminous lighting of the whole city, people can easily think of Beijing in the 2008 Olympic Games. Accurately speaking, Guangzhou has made all the preparations for this grand event belonging to Asia. Guangzhou is touching the world with its unique charm, and it is this charm that is not inferior to Beijing that tells the world that Guangzhou is not only China's but also the world's. Guangzhou is ready to carry out more cooperation with all fields in the world and make common progress with the world. The jubilant Guangzhou is opening its doors to Asia and the world! Guangzhou, we are proud of you! China and Guangzhou are proud of you! Guangzhou, Asia is proud of you! Guangzhou, the world is proud of you.
