“The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. How long have you not been home?” “Is there a taste that can evoke your memories of the festival?” “What special memories do you have for the festival in a foreign country?” On the road, is there a song that can give you the strength to move forward?” On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Guangming.com interviewed 100 young people who spent the festival in a foreign country and talked about their stories of being alone in a foreign country. “The true meaning of festivals is to take time out of busy life and think about what you want” “Festivals are a process of rest and recuperation. We are all working hard, and we have to spend the holidays happily during holidays.” “We can walk through music Into the festival”…because of empathy, so touching. The young people in the camera also said what everyone said, that is, “Mid-Autumn Festival, I’m pretty good in a foreign country!”
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a big event for Chinese people. Eating moon cakes, admiring the bright moon, gathering friends and relatives, and traveling together. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the beautiful words such as “flower”, “good”, “moon” and “round” are just like the best festival stories. The word must be of great value. “The moon is the hometown and the people are the folks at home.” Family affection, friendship, and love are all enhanced by the beautiful atmosphere of the festive season, which in turn constitutes the precious memories of the Chinese people for the Mid-Autumn Festival. When the footsteps of the return journey become clear with the turning of the wheels, when the homesickness rises with the journey away from home, in the cycle of reincarnation year after year, the Chinese are on the chain of values and export From personal to home country feelings. Of course, not everyone will embark on the journey home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and more young people choose to work hard in big cities and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in the way of “in situ festivals”. Just like the Mid-Autumn Festival video of Guangming.com, the festival stories of young people have enriched the scene of this festival and let people see a different youth landscape.
“Spending festivals in place” is like a “back” and “no-back” multiple-choice questions. How to answer the questions, young people choose to use struggle to fill in the melancholy of “thinking about family every holiday season”. In the Mid-Autumn Festival video “Four Seasons Songs of China”, the audience saw many young faces of “I’m on duty on holiday”, such as medical workers who stick to their anti-epidemic positions, construction workers sweating on construction sites, and webcasters who carry goods through mobile phones. . Perseverance can also realize the beauty of the festival, sweat can reflect the warmth of the sun, and countless young people are struggling to make their dreams shine in their lives. In this Mid-Autumn Festival when they are not going home, they feel the warmth of being surrounded by others in their hometown, and they also give out their own little light. Between the attachment to the countryside and the hard work of dreams, the “beauty and beauty” of life vision and social development has been achieved.
“The country is good, the nation is good, and everyone will be good.” When we were sitting on the 350 km/h Fuxing ship, we used domestic 5G smartphones to connect video with family and friends, or stayed at home and used laptops to watch dramas… …The sense of gain and happiness in the Mid-Autumn Festival are specific and clear. In a deeper sense, such a beautiful scene is the direct connection between the country and the individual. In the poetic image of “Love in the Mid-Autumn Festival, full moon in the sky, and full dream in the world“, everyone’s future and destiny are closely connected with the future and destiny of the nation. That kind of correct way of opening life is precisely the heart and mind of “powerful state self”. For countless young people who spend the Mid-Autumn Festival on the spot, they naturally understand the family and country sentiments related to struggle.
Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival on the spot, and the moon will be clear in another country. Traditional Chinese festivals have a history of thousands of years. No matter where we are, even if we are drifting away, we will never forget the “harbour” from which we set off. In a practical sense, whether it is “going home for love” or “starting for dreams”, they all carry a yearning for a better life, and this is also the great significance given by the festival. At this moment, it is also the period of “fruits fragrance” and “better harvest in sight”-looking at the vast land of the motherland, from production workshops in industrial parks to large-scale infrastructure construction sites, from urban office buildings to rural rice fields…” The fiery scene of “Autumn Harvest” reflects many young people’s determination of the value of “only those who strive to advance”. This kind of context is like a bright moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, bright and bright, illuminating the way forward. (Xie Weifeng)
