The Spring Festival Gala is overturned again! 60,000 Beijing residents gathered at Yonghe Temple!

The Year of the Dragon is here. Let me first say “Happy New Year” to everyone.

According to traditional Chinese customs, on special days such as the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year every year, people go to monasteries and temples to burn incense, worship Buddha, and pray for blessings and peace.

On the first day of the New Year, thousands of Chinese at home and abroad went to local temples to burn incense and pray for blessings. For many years, it has been a New Year tradition for Beijing residents to pray at the Yonghe Temple in Beijing. A large number of people lined up outside Yonghe Temple since the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year in order to grab the “top incense”.

Beijing officials said that the Yonghe Temple on the first day of the Lunar New Year will receive at least 60,000 tourists. And many people say that there is actually a reason for this. 2023 will be the worst, saddest, and saddest year. Especially the Chinese in Southeast Asia have always maintained this tradition, and this year is no exception.

Every Chinese New Year, there is always a turning point, which is the Spring Festival Gala.

First of all, although the ratings data of the Spring Festival Gala in previous years were adulterated and fabricated, in 2024, they were not announced to the public at all. Some netizens joked that “the Spring Festival Gala is like a news broadcast.”

However, many people have also noticed that the “Spring Festival Gala ratings” in the three northeastern provinces are significantly higher than those in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan, and the polar distribution is obvious.

In addition, some netizens made “malicious comparisons” this time, comparing the Spring Festival Gala ten years ago with this year’s Spring Festival Gala? More Spring Festival Gala slots? During the Spring Festival Gala in previous years, in order to fool the people, the CCP would play videos of Chinese New Year greetings from all over the world. However, we did not see them this year. Some people say that it was caused by the British pianist Kavanagh’s vandalism. Is the influence of the British Little Pink incident really that great?

Some netizens discovered a strange thing. Every Chinese New Year, the President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Canada, etc. celebrate the New Year with Chinese people and are very polite to the Chinese. But I have never seen the leaders of Russia, Iran, Hamas, Taliban, Belarus and the Chinese celebrating the Chinese Year together.

This also reminds me of an interesting question. Starting from February 8, the Empire State Building in New York began to light up red lights. It is already the 24th year to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
