Zhang Nan: Did you watch the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games?
Li Yue: Yes. It was so successful. I was deeply moved and felt proud of our motherland.
Zhang Nan: Which scene do you like most?
Li Yue: The solar terms countdown. The opening ceremony began with the 24 solar terms of the traditional Chinese calendar. The 24 solar terms are an important part of Chinese culture and show the wisdom of Chinese people. I’m proud of being a Chinese.
Zhang Nan: More and more people around the world are falling in love with Chinese culture. Any other impressive scenes?
Li Yue: Do you remember the scene where the five-star red flag was passed by hand by Chinese people from all ethnic minorities, and finally to the flag-raisers? No one could contain his or her excitement when our national flag was rising in the Bird’s Nest.
Zhang Nan: The scene that moved me most was a soldier in tears saluting the national flag when the national anthem was played. I believe many people felt the same.
Li Yue: Sure. I think the tears welling up in his eyes expressed his love for our country.
