The torch is an important symbol of each Asian Games and contains rich information elements of the Asian Games. Journalists entering and leaving the main media center of the Hangzhou Asian Games can enjoy the torch of the 19th Asian Games at one time.
Taking the three editions held in China as an example, the shape of the Beijing Asian Games torch is a torch, the top is embedded with the Beijing Asian Games "Great Wall" logo, the torch body is carved with Chinese dragons and auspicious clouds surrounding the pattern, and the top week is selected in the shape of the battlements of the Great Wall of China.
The name of the Guangzhou Asian Games torch is "trend", the upper half is a perfect circle, the middle transitions, and the lower half becomes square, symbolizing the "round place". The torch draws on the transparent and exquisite characteristics of Guangzhou ivory carvings, and the openwork decoration is like a rising and flowing flame, and it is like the endless water of the Pearl River.
The torch of the Hangzhou Asian Games is named "Flame", the shape "grows" from bottom to top, the torch base takes eight water veins as the veins of civilization, the torch body is evolved with the spiral pattern of Liangzhu, the torch crown is taken from the jade, the design of the fire outlet is derived from the earliest oracle bone glyph of "Qi", and the overall contour curve is like holding firewood, which means that the torch of Chinese civilization is passed on.
In order to ensure the solemnity of the torch and the purity of the torch relay, the flame is kept burning during the relay. Therefore, the torch design of previous Asian Games will take wind and rain protection as an important indicator. As the key core of the torch, the burning of the "torch" must withstand strong winds, heavy rain and various special circumstances. A closer look shows that in order to ensure that the torch does not go out in bad weather, the "torch" uses a floating plate punch hole at the top and a hidden air inlet built inside. The design team also gave the torch a "double insurance": the torch burning system has two sets of internal and external fire outlets, even if the external fire outlet is extinguished, the internal flamethrowing state can be guaranteed. When the harsh environment has passed, the external fire outlet can also be automatically tempered.
As the core idea, this year's Asian Games changed the original way of lighting the main torch, and used the form of mass participation and digital interconnection to allow more people to participate in it - hundreds of millions of online digital torchbearers "small flames" converged on the Qiantang River, gradually forming an image of a digital human in the process of movement. The digital man held the Asian Games torch, stepped on the waves, came to the sky above the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center, and walked to the torch stage with the sixth torchbearer on the scene to light the main cauldron together, which made countless spectators shout shocked.
After watching the previous Asian Games torches and naming the digital torchbearers, the author immediately thought of the word "Shen". Shen, pronounced the same as "deep", means that the fire wood is vigorous, looking at its font structure, three fires burning on the wood, very similar to the way people pick up the fire and light the torch, which perfectly matches the meaning of the digital torchman. In addition, in ancient books such as the Book of Poetry, "Shen Shen" is the same as "Xin Xin", which means "many", and we often say that "Xin Shen students" is "Shen Shen students". This allegory also points to the number of hundreds of millions of online torchbearers. Therefore, the author's name for the digital torchman is "Shen Shen".
