"Cloud" worship ancestors out of the circle

On the same day, the sons and daughters of China realized the affectionate expression of "worship of ancestors without distinction between near and far, and everyone can participate" through CCTV live broadcast and global network live broadcast. At the same time, through the online ancestral worship platform in the hometown of the Yellow Emperor in the year of Nongyin, we pay homage to the Yellow Emperor of Xuanyuan and pray for the blessing of China.
"I wish the motherland a smooth wind and rain, and a happy and healthy family." On the morning of April 3, Li Lei, a citizen of Zhengzhou, logged on to the "Yellow Emperor's Hometown Online Ancestral Worship Platform" to pray for blessings.
