3 1 The Summer Universiade will be held from July 28th to August 8th, 2023. Among them, the opening ceremony will be held at the main stadium of Dong 'an Lake Sports Park at 20:00 on July 28th. In order to be "simple, safe and wonderful", the total duration of the opening ceremony should not exceed 100 minutes. The scale of the opening ceremony actors and volunteers is about 2,000, and the overall duration is strictly controlled. This is no small challenge.
To this end, the director group conducted repeated drills to optimize the route and process of the participants. After several rounds of tests, the athletes' participation can be completed within 60 minutes.
Excluding the athletes' admission time and other links, the performance duration of the opening ceremony was reduced to an unprecedented 15 minutes. The performance must be "short and pithy", so that every paragraph has artistic pursuit, every paragraph has distinct emotions and every paragraph is worth seeing.
