Xiaonan takes you to explore the Winter Olympics! Guess what Xiaonan found at the 2022 Beijing News Center today? Unexpectedly, I was able to drink Chaoshan Gongfu tea in the capital Beijing, admire Chaoyang paper-cutting, Chao embroidery hook flowers, seal engraving and other intangible cultural heritage skills.
It turned out that in December this year, the third Asian Youth Congress was about to be held in Shantou, Guangdong Province. What kind of "dream linkage" will there be at the Beijing Winter Olympics and the Asian Youth Games? Let's take a look!
On February 12, the Shantou Exhibition with the theme of "Celebrating the Winter Olympics and Welcoming Asia and Youth" appeared in the theme exhibition area of the 2022 Beijing News Center "Colorful Shenzhou", facing more than 1,700 non-registered journalists and domestic and foreign guests of the Beijing News Center, showing the image charm and cultural characteristics of Shantou in the hometown of Overseas Chinese in the United States, and the exhibition lasted for 3 days.
Walking into the exhibition area located in the front hall of the second floor of the Beijing News Center in 2022, special elements such as Asian Youth, toy culture creativity, and intangible cultural heritage came to the fore. The theme exhibition takes the culture of overseas Chinese, the image of the city, the new pattern of industrial development of "three new, two special and one big" and the preparation results of the Shantou Asian Youth Congress as the main content, and attracts a large number of visitors to stop through multimedia and interactive experience.
Ji Weiqi, a staff member of the Executive Committee of the Asian Youth Congress, introduced that the third Asian Youth Congress will be held in Shantou from December 20 to 28 this year, setting up 21 competition projects such as diving, swimming and water polo, and renovating and building a total of 25 sports venues (groups) and 1 athlete village, including 14 competition venues (groups) and 11 independent training venues.
The preparations for the Third Asian Youth Congress take "youth vitality, cultural integration, intelligent creativity, green and low-carbon, safe and healthy" as the concept of running the competition, while carrying out sports competitions, holding various cultural and educational exchange activities, better disseminating the Olympic values of "excellence, friendship and respect" among young people, and leaving behind the valuable cultural heritage of Asian Youth.
In the "Fun of Culture" interactive area, non-hereditary inheritors of Chaoshan Gongfu tea art, seal engraving, Chaoyang paper-cutting and Chaoxi embroidery hook flowers came to the scene to display their intangible cultural heritage skills, allowing participants to fully appreciate the unique Lingnan culture and Chaoshan culture through in-depth cultural experience. In the exhibition area of "Cultural Heritage", three theme spray paintings reflecting the third Asian Youth Congress have become popular punch points for audiences to take group photos.
"We call tea 'tea rice,' which means it's as important as grain." At the scene, Zheng Huifeng, a provincial-level non-hereditary heir of Shantou Gongfu Tea Art, while making tea for the guests, introduced that Shantou people drink tea every day: drinking tea for health, drinking tea when talking about things, and drinking tea in customs and festivals... "There are things that are discussed on the tea table, which is the characteristic of Chaoshan. He said.
Xu Zunying, a provincial non-hereditary heir of Guangdong Paper-cutting (Chaoyang Paper-cutting), brought many paper-cut works and patiently guided the experiencers to cut out the "ice pier". She was very happy to come to Beijing this time to recommend Shantou Intangible Cultural Heritage Art: "We can let more people in the country and the world understand our Chinese folk traditional art." ”
Many media reporters also experienced the process of seal engraving on the spot, after engraving the seal, the inheritors also gave the participants a letter of introduction to overseas Chinese, and stamped the engraved seal to publicize the culture of overseas Chinese in Shantou, a hometown of overseas Chinese.
Huang Donghua, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Shantou Municipal CPC Committee and director of the Propaganda Department of the Shantou Municipal Executive Committee of the Asian Youth Congress, said that the conference on building a culturally strong province just held put forward the requirement of being committed to inheriting and carrying forward The excellent traditional Chinese culture, hoping that through this theme activity, in strengthening the exchanges and interaction between the Shantou Asian Youth Congress and the Beijing Winter Olympics, so that more people can understand the Asian Youth Congress, they will also better publicize the achievements of Shantou in promoting the construction of regional cultural highlands and contribute to the construction of a culturally strong province.
