On the other hand, more than 20 years ago, the actors selected in the Spring Festival Gala were also some real artists, not the men and women who were popular at that time.
On the other hand, even if there was dissatisfaction at that time, it was not expressed through so many channels. All you can express is official channels. It must be great. Now, with the development of social media and the popularity of the Internet, everyone has come out to talk about their dissatisfaction, which has become a hot spot and bright spot.
To sum up, the Spring Festival Gala more than 20 years ago was much more popular than now. Maybe it is still popular now, but the way people "welcome" has changed.
