On October 1, in Huangling Village, Labao Town, Liujiang District, Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province, villagers used 72,000 red peppers to spell out five-star red flag patterns on Weibo. In the video, the red peppers are strung up by a rope, and a string of garlic on the left represents the white edge of the red flag, plus a five-pointed star, which forms a national flag hanging on the old house at the mouth of the village, implying that there are so many "peppers" in jiangshan.

Netizens have said that "the villagers have gone to their hearts and celebrated the happy birthday of the motherland in their own unique way." "On October 1, Jimu News contacted Mr. Liu, a staff member of the Huangling Village Committee, and he said that the idea of using chili peppers to spell the national flag had been proposed by villagers a week ago." Because this year, the peppers and green onions in the village have been harvested, and the villagers are in a good mood. Recently, villagers have been choosing green onions in the open space in front of the village committee every day, and when they chatted, they said that they could use peppers to make a national flag. Mr. Liu said that after this idea was recognized by everyone, after every day after doing farm work, the villagers who had time in each family would bring their home chili peppers to the village committee to "weave" the chili flag. On September 30, when the national flag was completed, the village committee helped provide materials such as five-pointed stars and booths, and completed the activities to celebrate the birthday of the motherland with the villagers.

After the news appeared on Weibo's hot search, some netizens wondered where the 72,000 peppers came from, was it exaggerated? Mr. Liu explained that the villagers estimate it according to the weight, because each pepper is about the same size and weight, and after weighing the entire national flag, you can know the approximate number of peppers.
