According to the usual practice, the host city of the next Asian Games (Asian Games news, let's say Asian Games) will give a performance at the closing ceremony. Guangzhou, the host city of the next Asian Games, will perform a song and dance performance at the closing ceremony on the evening of Doha time 15. Yesterday afternoon, Guangzhou Art Troupe held a press conference in Doha, detailing the program "Oriental Charm" they brought from the South China Sea coast.

Show the long history of China culture.

Li Zhefu, deputy head of Guangzhou Art Troupe, said that after the handover of the flag of the Asian Games in Doha and Guangzhou, Guangzhou artists will perform for 10 minutes at the three-hour closing ceremony. The theme of this program called "Oriental Charm" will be to show the long-standing culture of China and reflect the energetic spirit of the times and Guangzhou style, thus opening the prelude to the Guangzhou Asian Games.

Li Zhefu told reporters that the performances will include China opera, China figures, China paintings, China martial arts and Lingnan music, which will be expressed by scientific and technological means. Director Xing Shimiao said that the 10 minute performance will be divided into two parts, the first part will be 7 minutes of dance, martial arts and calligraphy, and the second part will be 3 minutes of songs and song and dance performances. The performance will be held in three regions. The first is the 60-meter-long corridor, which is dominated by calligraphy performances; The second is a stage with a diameter of 18m, which is mainly composed of singing, dancing and drama. Third, the high-definition large screen, with a length of 150m and a width of 45m, will display China landscape paintings, Guangzhou stadiums and representative buildings.

Huge Calligraphy "Harmonious Asia"

The reporter learned about the whole performance process from director Shi Miao. After the representative of Guangzhou received the flag, the performance officially began. In the songs of Huang Zhong and Da Lu, dozens of dancers dressed in China national costumes filed out from both sides of the stage and stretched and danced on the stage.

Each word is about 16 square meters, and these four words total more than 60 square meters. It is reported that in 200 1 year, Shen wrote 600 square meters of giant characters with a brush of 8 1.5 kg, and this Guinness record created by him has never been broken. At the closing ceremony in Doha, Shen performed calligraphy for about 6 minutes.

Then, in the sound of guqin, an actress will wave her sleeves and weave a happy atmosphere with dancing red silk. Accompanied by percussion music from China, a group of actors will perform dances with southern flavor. With the appearance of China traditional opera music with rhythmic rhythm, two men with body painting danced with fans, which held up the unique charm of China opera in the gentle breeze. The world-famous China Wushu will also be performed in the form of dance.

In the melody of music, TanJing, a 29-year-old soloist of the Song and Dance Troupe of the General Political Department, will take the stage to sing "The Covenant of China" and send an invitation to the world on behalf of Guangzhou, China, the host of the 20 10 Asian Games. The lyrics say: "I write invitations in square characters, and 5,000 years of civilization spread to you ... songs are like waves, flowers are like the sea, and Guangzhou is waiting for you;" The river is mighty and the Great Wall is heroic, and China is waiting for you. " Afterwards, dancers Liu Jing and Zhang Zhi will also dance on the stage.

Resolutely do not engage in sea tactics.

The reporter asked director Shi Miao, what's new about this "Guangzhou 10 Minutes" compared with the 8-minute program directed by Zhang Yimou at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games? Miao Shi said that the artistic expression means of both sides are definitely different, but the original intention is to show China culture.

Shi Miao said that this "Guangzhou 10 Minutes" will avoid the strategy of following others' advice and will not bring aesthetic fatigue to China audiences. "Only 84 of us, including actors and staff, came to Doha, so we won't engage in crowd tactics. We strive to express the most typical culture of China culture in the simplest way, and every element is as wonderful as possible. "

In order to prepare for this 10 minute program, Guangzhou Art Troupe has been practicing hard for more than three months. In order to find suitable Wushu actors, the Art Troupe went to Shaolin Temple Wushu School in Dengfeng, Henan Province, screened thousands of Wushu players, and finally returned to Guangdong to find two national Wushu champions. For this movement, the art troupe invited Sichuan drama experts to guide it for more than a month, and the music part rehearsed for more than three months. After the program was formed, it was secretly rehearsed countless times and revised more than 20 times in the stadiums of Guangzhou. Yesterday morning, this program was auditioned on the simulation stage of David Performance Company in Doha, which was well received by artists from all over the world.

Miao Shi said: "This 10 minute performance will be a special green leaf presented by Guangzhou for Doha. With this green leaf, the flowers at the closing ceremony of Doha will be more colorful. "

Gu Shiyang, deputy secretary-general of the Asian Games Organizing Committee, once said, "I believe this Asian Games will be more distinctive by integrating Asian culture, promoting Chinese culture and highlighting Lingnan culture." One of the characteristics of Guangzhou Asian Games is a grand gathering that embodies Asian multiculturalism. Here comes the grand event. How does Guangzhou, which has been prepared for a long time, play a "cultural card" in its forward-looking work?

"Show" the inside story and "tell" Asia.

From August 3rd to June, 2009, 10, 10, "Ancient Indian Treasures Exhibition" was held in Guangzhou Museum of Nanyue King in Western Han Dynasty. 100 More than one ancient Indian sculpture was selected by the Indian Archaeological Bureau from 0/3 museums in India, most of which came to China for the first time. These precious exhibits tell the story of ancient religions and philosophies, and show the Indian cultural heritage of ancient Asia. Co-sponsored by National Cultural Heritage Administration of China, Indian Archaeological Bureau and Guangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee, why did the Asian Games Organizing Committee show Indian culture in Guangzhou Asian Games cycle? 16 Luo, director of the propaganda department of the Asian Games Organizing Committee, said that it is one of the purposes of the Asian Games to promote cultural exchange activities among Asian countries and regions.

A series of cultural exhibitions such as "Asian Memory" photo exhibition and Asian art exhibition were held in Guangzhou. In the form of cultural activities of art exhibitions, it will be the direction of efforts of the Asian Organizing Committee to bring different cultures of Asian countries into Guangzhou and show them to the public, so as to promote the diversity of the spiritual feast of the Asian Games. The Asian Forum, which has been successfully held for seven times, has the same goal. Lectures by Huo Zhenting, Deng Yaping and Jiang Xiaoyu appeared one after another, covering Lingnan culture, Asian Games culture and Asian culture. As Shen Che, cultural consultant of Guangzhou Asian Games, said in the first Asian Games Forum, the Asian Games is a platform for multi-cultural sharing, and "understanding Asia and promoting harmony" is the core value of the Asian Games. Promote cultural exchange with the power of sports.

Sing "Asia"

The Asian Games songs "Guangzhou's Covenant" and "Beautiful Asia" which have been circulated in major media, the Asian Games finalist award gala attended by many stars, Jackie Chan and other singers becoming "Asian Games singers" and other activities have warmed up the Guangzhou Asian Games with the power of music and publicized Asian culture. According to Huang Nanbing, Vice Minister of Celebration and Cultural Activities Department of the Asian Games Organizing Committee, the general public can not only release Asian Games songs wirelessly through the wireless music platform, but also listen to and download Asian Games songs through mobile phones, vote for their favorite Asian Games songs and singers through SMS and MMS, and share Asian Games color ring tones with friends. I hope to build a wide range of media bridges and spread Asian Games songs.

With the appeal of famous singers and the attraction of beautiful songs, I believe that the cultural charm of Asia will be effectively displayed in waves of Asian Games music.

National participation in cultural activities

From kindergarten children to the elderly, there are plenty of opportunities to participate in cultural activities related to the Asian Games. Asian teenagers take part in talent and writing competitions and youth camps. The first National Southern Lion Open, the Guangzhou Workers' Civilization and Etiquette Image Competition Finals, and the planting of "Asian Games Forest" by Guangfo teenagers ... Only in the first ten days of March this year, official website of Guangzhou Asian Games announced more than 10 public participation in the Asian Games. "Let's sow green, and use our hands to offer good wishes to Guangzhou and Buddha for the auspicious Guangzhou Asian Games Year!" Xie Zeng, a youth representative from Guangzhou and Foshan, put forward the "Green Fenjiang Green Asian Games" initiative in his speech to jointly create the Asian Games forest. If exhibitions, forums and parties are one-way cultural communication, then the Asian Games activities with the participation of the whole people are more participatory and truly acceptable. A college student who participated in the selection of registered college student journalists for the Asian Games said that the process of participating in the competition made him pay more attention to, learn and accept cultural knowledge and information related to the Guangzhou Asian Games and even previous Asian Games.

Borrow the slogan of volunteers for the Guangzhou Asian Games: Come together, it will be more exciting.
