#21天PICTIME CHECK-IN CHALLENGE (II)# The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival in my country. There are several theories about its origin, including commemorating Qu Yuan, commemorating Wu Zixu, the general of Wu State, and commemorating filial daughter Cao E.

However, people generally believe that it is to commemorate Qu Yuan: Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet and politician during the Warring States Period, met the foolish king Chu Huai, and his political ideas were not accepted. He was also marginalized and framed by villains. He felt deeply that the country was hopeless and his ambitions could not be realized.

, so he sank into the Miluo River with a huge boulder in his arms and died.

In order to commemorate Qu Yuan, people throw rice dumplings into the river on the fifth day of May and hold dragon boat racing and other large-scale activities on the river.

The other two theories are less well known.

Modern people's understanding of the Dragon Boat Festival has more cultural elements.

On the night of the Dragon Boat Festival, CCTV Comprehensive Channel launched a special program "Dragon Boat Festival Gala". The host combination of the party was particularly interesting. Professional host Li Sisi took the leading role, paired with singer Han Xue. The two beauties were particularly eye-catching on the stage, dressed in plain clothes.

The colorful dress looks like a fairy descending to earth.

You may not expect the other two male hosts, one is Yang Fan, the host of "Gold Medal Comedy Class", and the famous actor Tian Yu.

This kind of cross-border combination is very casual, reducing the seriousness of the party and adding a bit of game fun.

Li Sisi controls the rhythm, raises the sails to adjust the atmosphere, and the other two hosts appropriately enliven the atmosphere. This combination is really suitable for this type of party.

The first program of the party was the song "Quest for Up and Down", which sang excerpts from Qu Yuan's "Li Sao", led by the famous singer Gong Linna, followed by a fresh young man in Hanfu, and on both sides were warriors beating war drums, accompanied by flutes.

, dulcimer, guzheng and other musical instruments, the scene is grand and majestic.

Bursts of singing, bursts of drums, exciting music, and joyful chants make us seem to have returned to the era when Qu Yuan lived and saw the style of Chu State.

I seem to hear Qu Yuan singing: Tiger drums, harps, and luan return to the carriage, and the kings of clouds come and go one after another.

The most interesting part of the program is the rice dumpling-making segment, which is hosted by host Li Sisi. The contestants are divided into guest groups and host groups.

The three beauties in the guest group are: Zhao Yazhi, Zhang Kaili and Sun Qian. The three of them can be said to represent three eras, but they are equally beautiful on the stage. Zhao Yazhi even interprets the myth of "frozen age" beauties, without any trace of them.

He appears to be in his 60s.

"Aunt Jinxi" Sun Qian wears a dress shaped like a lotus leaf, which reminds me of Qu Yuan's poem: Make lotus flowers to make clothes, gather hibiscus to make clothes.

When the three beautiful guests came on stage, they all brought Dragon Boat Festival delicacies from their hometowns. Zhao Yazhi brought five-color porridge, Zhang Kaili brought cakes from Yanbian, and Sun Qian brought sweet embryos, a specialty of her hometown Lanzhou. She also specifically explained

It is the word "embryo" for "germ". In fact, the word "embryo" here should be the word "酅". This is a kind of food made by fermenting highland barley or wheat with distiller's yeast. It is deeply loved by people in the northwest region.

When the rice dumpling-making competition started, the advantages of women in the kitchen were immediately revealed. Although they had received a short training from a generation of "zongzi" masters, Yang Fan and Tian Yu were still in a hurry, and in the end the guest group won.

The host Han Xue gave everyone a popular science on the eight major factions of rice dumplings: Beijing style, Guangdong style, Shandong style, Sichuan style, Yunnan style, Jiaxing style, Southern Fujian style, and Xi'an style.

Received praise from host Li Sisi.

After making the rice dumplings, the three female guests also sang songs live. It can be said that each has its own characteristics. They appeared in order of age. Zhao Yazhi sang "Sweet Honey", which to be honest was not as good as Teresa Teng's singing.

With Yang Fan as the host, of course the program "Gold Medal Comedy Class" is indispensable.

In the cross talk "Gold Medal Host" performed by Yang Fan, He Huan and others, in order for Yang Fan to stand in the C position of the host, he came up with various ideas. Several cross talk actors showed their special skills, from rapping to

There were various forms of singing, singing and dancing, and the atmosphere at the scene was high. It also provided enough advertising for "Gold Medal Comedy Class".

This party was not broadcast at 8pm, and it was not long, but I think this format is particularly good. In ancient times, we should call it a entertainment party, and present the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage in front of everyone, Jiaxing

The inheritor of rice dumplings can make more than ten rice dumplings in one minute, which is unimaginable for any of us viewers.

There is no shortage of celebrities at the party, and the appearance of some veteran celebrities can arouse screams from fans of all ages.

The most important thing is to popularize some knowledge about the Dragon Boat Festival to everyone, from the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival to the sects of Zongzi, as well as the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival, which really makes the audience gain knowledge while being entertained.
