Have a special hobby: Why do Chinese people like big noises?

Compared with other countries, Chinese people have a special hobby and like big movements. Its main manifestation is loud and high voice.

Having a loud voice is an important advantage for a Chinese person. That voice is as loud as a bell, and it beats others first. If a person is said to be low-pitched and mute, you can easily imagine how useless he is. As soon as the child hits the ground, the louder it cries, the happier the owner becomes. The vendors shouted loudly, and each merchant used high-power speakers to play noisy music at the door. Cups and plates clashed in the hotel, and orders were given based on guessing games. The shop was bustling with people bargaining. Occasionally there were a few loud curses caused by the collision. On ordinary streets in China, these are commonplace scenes for us. It doesn't matter if you go abroad with a tour group and accidentally fail to follow the group. If you look far away, you can see which group of people is noisy, noisy, and has the loudest voice. It must be us Chinese. Our ancestors have long discovered that no matter how loud or loud a person's voice is, there is still a limit, and it cannot fully satisfy our preferences, so they have invented many inventions to make loud noises for us, such as gongs, drums, firecrackers, etc. . The invention of gunpowder promoted the development of human history. It is something that many of us are very proud of, and we still use it to glorify it from time to time. But what did the Chinese do with gunpowder? I'm a little embarrassed when I think about it, but it was mainly used to satisfy my hobby of "big noise" - making firecrackers. Firecrackers are almost always set off during foundation laying of projects, store openings, weddings and funerals, and the more firecrackers are set off for a longer period of time, the better. A few years ago, I went to a rural area in Hebei. I suddenly heard the sound of a cannon before going to bed at night. After asking, I found out that there was a funeral in the neighbor's house. According to the custom, a cannon was fired every once in a while until dawn. Now, it seems that people feel that the sound of firecrackers is not enough, so more and more ceremonies are firing salutes. What we are pursuing is the effect of shaking the earth. Loudspeakers, promotional vehicles, noisy gongs and drums, blasting firecrackers, and thunderous cheers - this was what we pursued and how familiar the scene was. I’m afraid the reason why Chinese people like big noises cannot be explained clearly in a few sentences, but it’s not a bad idea to speculate at random. I think in China, if a person has a loud voice, at least everyone will think that he is physically strong and can live confidently. If you can make some bigger noise, it will be a sign of one's strength. In the past, when officials came out, they would blow gongs to clear the way, causing a lot of noise. Nowadays, it is common to see police lights flashing, sirens blaring, and shouting: "Move over...move over! Get out of the way of the taxi in front..." Don't think that this is the police chasing the suspect. More often, it is the police chasing the suspect. Make way for those with strength. Times have changed, and more people can "enjoy" clearing the way. All meetings, visits by delegates, visits by famous celebrities, inspections by wealthy businessmen, and even the weddings of local dignitaries and princes must be cleared. The reason for clearing the way was not because of official business urgency, not because safety was threatened, but because of the big noise. Another reason why Chinese people usually have loud voices is probably related to the suppression in a certain aspect. People who have a mouth always want to speak and express. There are few restrictions on this aspect, but we must make up for it on the other. Foreigners are noisy during meetings, but mostly speak softly the rest of the time. Chinese people tend to be quiet during meetings and like to shout the rest of the time. The political battles in China's history are not less intense than those in other countries, but how many times have you seen open and legal debates between different political views? So if our compatriots raise their voices louder and raise their voice on the street, why should we not understand it? Chinese people like loud noises because they know the importance of sound best. Therefore, publicity is often regarded as an important position. As long as I occupy this position, I have the right to control the "voice". Not only is my voice the loudest, but I am often the only voice. Whether it is hawking in the market or debating, I secretly hope that one day my voice will become the single loudest voice. In fact, historical practice has long proved that when someone’s voice is not only the loudest, but also the only one, and there is no doubt about it, that is when we need to doubt it.
