We turned the TV to the balcony, sat on the balcony and watched this scene-our vision almost covered the entire TV tower "Xiaoman Waist" with a height of more than 600 meters and the west tower of a modern office building with a height of more than 400 meters. We also saw the colorful amorous feelings of laser radiation on both sides of the Pearl River for several kilometers, and we had a panoramic view of the fantastic city scenery.
On the balcony, we accidentally found that we always saw the fireworks in full bloom a few seconds earlier than TV viewers all over Asia, which really gave me a sneak peek. The more I lament the landscape of my balcony and the good feng shui of my home! Every time I learn from TV that there will be fireworks, I quickly turn on the video recorder in advance to keep the beautiful scenery and the laughter of my family.
The opening ceremony on TV also left a deep impression on me, more profound than the Beijing Olympic Games. Maybe because I am from Guangzhou, maybe the Guangzhou Asian Games does have its unrepeatable characteristics and world-class creativity.
Water droplets, water mist, spray, water waves, water dance, water music, water fireworks and Pearl River cruise ships constantly come to mind. Water stage, water element and water culture should be the outstanding highlights and characteristics of this Asian Games.
Lingnan culture is also very rich and prominent. The appearance of Guangdong nursery rhyme "It's raining hard" has given us a boost and a sense of pride. It seems that we have really become old people. The way to light the flame was unexpected, and it was actually lit with firecrackers. Originally very simple and traditional, I immediately felt very warm and humanized after aftertaste. This actually reflects the characteristics of Guangzhou, that is, harmony and humanity. People in Guangzhou should truly feel that the Asian Games has brought tangible benefits to the citizens: the sky has turned blue, the water has turned clear, the land has turned green, the houses have become beautiful, and subways and urban BRT have been added continuously.
Around 9 o'clock, all the citizens put green flowers in their rooms on balconies, terraces, windowsills and the sky. This 1 minute urban green performance art with the participation of the whole people is very creative and meaningful. The general public is not only the audience of the opening ceremony of the Asian Games, but also the participants of the Asian Games programs. I believe many people will not forget it.
In terms of technical creativity, the biggest highlight is undoubtedly the four giant sail facade stages. I've never seen such a facade stage. I have been to the scene three times some time ago, but I didn't expect the actors to perform on the erected screen. Tonight is really an eye-opener. Watching the actors pull the wire rope under the screen, I am really worried about what will happen to the actors on the screen. This is probably the world's first and the latest Guinness World Record.
What best embodies Guangzhou's humanistic spirit is the transformation from the holy water basin to the sacred fire basin. 45 girls slowly poured "holy water" from 45 countries and regions into the holy water basin. After the holy water was absorbed, the holy water basin rose slowly, and finally the "flame" which integrated the spirit of the Asian Games in 45 countries and regions was lit here. This is a desire for peace and harmony, and it also subtly expresses the tolerant mind of Guangzhou people.
