This introductory video was very special. It was so special that many people felt touched by it. People from all kinds of industries, be it men or women, young or old, all of them had a different understanding of the Spring Festival Gala, and there were various attitudes for it. What was the Spring Festival Gala? There was never a definitive answer to that question. Every person had their own understanding and answer, just like those people who were featured in the introductory video.

This was the first act of the entire Spring Festival Gala, and it was also the most difficult act to handle. It went without saying how important the opening dance was, yet it was very difficult to manage it. Dancing? Singing? Getting a bunch of celebrities to strut their stuff on stage? In the many years of the Spring Festival Gala, this formula had been repeated too many times and had totally lost the interest of the audience. As such, Zhang Ye was hoping to prevail over the dissenting views. He spent almost all of the 1 billion RMB budget to recreate Broadcasting Studio 1’s main stage, then brought over the highest rated song and dance act from his previous world’s Spring Festival Gala as the opener here!

It seemed like an ocean of flowers was all around with no blind corners. The 3D lighting effects conjured up many realistic flower blooms all over the place!

Much less our television station, which other television station in the world could bear such a cost! Not even the Americans themselves have tried out this set of equipment before!

It would only have an ordinary large display, one that only got larger and more colorful with each passing year. Basically, there weren’t usually many major changes. There was even once when the audience seating was not revamped for two years in a row. A lot of people had flamed the Spring Festival Gala regarding this during last year’s event, so who could have thought that this year’s Spring Festival Gala would bring about such an overwhelming change. Zhang Ye had to withstand such great pressure back then to introduce an advertising model for the Spring Festival Gala. And right now, the most direct effect that it brought about was shockingly seen here!
