A group of energetic young people. Behind them are colorful flags fluttering in the wind, behind them are exploding strings of firecrackers, and the remains of firecrackers are flying on them, but they are unmoved and look serious, as if they were displayed in front of the audience like a painting.
But: listen! -Hey! There is a gong! Break the calm before the storm. Two or three guys came out dancing the golden lion! Accompanied by fierce applause and the rapid sound of gongs and drums, the air gradually warmed up, the cheers of the audience rose like waves, and the excited enthusiasm dispelled the cold!
The giant lion began to swim on the jagged wooden stakes, sometimes jumping into the eagle, and sometimes crawling like a river, fighting with snakes. The lion with hydrangea on his head kept dancing, his round eyes blinked smartly, and the dancer's body swung rhythmically. Suddenly, the lion dance jumped with a jerk, and the hearts of the audience were lifted. The lion flying in the air has become a dragon flying in the air!
What a great lion dance in China! Remind people: this is the lion of Asia! Remind people that the lion has awakened and is spreading its powerful glory to the world! Remind people that China has stood up! No more cynicism from villains! Remind people: This is the powerful and mighty China! Their every movement is full of strength and passion.
Every movement is whirring, and every movement is so powerful and magical. Everyone was shocked, and it took a long time to recover. They are all amazed at the changeable techniques and unrestrained lion dance, and surprised that your thin tiger skin can perform such a wonderful performance!
My dear motherland, it is you who have raised these energetic teenagers, and only you can produce such a thrilling performance! Apart from this vast China, where can there be such dynamic and mobile traditional performances? What a great lion dance in China! As soon as the performance stopped, it was surprisingly quiet around, leaving only the echoes of gongs and drums, and people were still immersed in the performance.
