"I was a little pigeon left behind, and then I found my sister in the crowd and my sister led me into the line." In the report on the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics released by Zhang Yimou's team in the early morning of the 5th by Xinhua News Agency, Xu Shuyuan, who played the "little pigeon left behind" and from the Experimental Primary School in Haidian District, Beijing, said this when introducing their performance.
"I stayed at the end every time, waiting for the little pigeons, and then I went back to the group and didn't find her, only to look out and see the little pigeons, so I pulled her back." Guo Yaqian, the sister of the little pigeon who plays the "little pigeon who fell behind" and is from the Second Primary School in Zhongguancun, Beijing, said.
Regarding the program called "Shining Snowflakes", Tian Xiang, director of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the ping pigeon link, said, "We hope that through the performance of these 660 chorus and dancing children, we can express this ethereal, romantic, modern, and technological feeling, so we designed the whole design, and at the end, it is gathered into a heart shape." 'Heart' is a warm expression, we designed this 'big pull small', a little friend, that is, there is a small pigeon that has fallen behind, then it will come out of the heart shape, a slightly older child, to pull her back, pull back into the heart shape of the team. We felt it was a very warm picture, very warm, very happy. ”
"We don't go to the children's performances, we don't go to the uniformity, it's just an anomaly, so to speak." Tian Xiang said, "Before, our logic was to make the children tidy, the children should be neat, I tell you which angle the hand is at, you must be at which angle." Now it's not, what we want is a state, I won't give him rules, how everyone runs, I don't care about him. What I want is a performance, a state in which you are immersed and engaged in this world, your state in this dream, your state in this snowy landscape. ”
"When we walk, the snowflake will follow us, it's very shiny, very romantic." "The little pigeon that fell behind," Xu Shuyuan said.
Since last night, the "little pigeon left behind" has aroused the discussion of many netizens on Weibo, and some netizens have seen a layer of "metaphor" from it.
For example, some netizens said, "The child who got lost will definitely come back."
Some netizens said that all the pigeons looked to the southeast, waiting for the pigeons that had fallen behind to return.
@ Communist Youth League Central Committee in the early morning of the 5th forwarded the program clip, writing: "Lost children, go home early."
Netizens have left messages under Weibo, "meaning a good cow", "going home early", "a 'pigeon' can not be less".
