An audiovisual feast to appreciate Chinese tea culture

On the "International Tea Day" on May 21st, there were many talents and friends, and an audio-visual feast for the envoys to appreciate Chinese tea culture came as scheduled.

Beautiful stories start from encounters.

Tea originated in China and prevailed all over the world. Thousands of years ago, Chinese people and tea met in the forest: tea was ignited by human hands and bloomed with ever-changing mellow fragrance; people were conquered by the beauty of tea and regarded it as a symbol of virtue and a happy life.

In the place where humans first discovered wild tea trees, in the mountains of Yunnan, China, the people of the Blang people have grown tea for generations, connecting the ancient wild tea trees into ten thousand acres of green tea forests, and finally turning them into a cup of quaint and mellow Pu'er tea soup.

Looking at the picturesque sea of clouds and tea mountains on the screen, listening to the Blang girls singing and singing on the stage, the envoys were intoxicated and immersed in it. They picked up a cup of tea from time to time, and savored the poetry and timelessness of the tea culture of the great eastern countries while drinking slowly.

"I love Pu'er tea not only because it has a mellow taste, but also because it has a health care effect. Therefore, whether at home or in the office, I always keep Pu'er tea and make a pot of it almost every day." On the topic of which kind of Chinese tea is my favorite, Uganda's ambassador to China Chrispus Kiyonga is very fond of Pu'er tea produced in Yunnan, China.

The habit of Chinese people to drink tea flourished in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were tea parties and tea banquets, both of which were elegant social methods. People sublime tea drinking into a dual enjoyment of material and spirit. At the tea banquet, people prepared delicacies, looked for a place with great scenery, and enjoyed tea together, and expressed their understanding of tea through poems, books, and paintings. The scene was extremely elegant.

Since then, writing poems and paintings has become a common configuration at various tea parties in China. During the "Esemester Tasting" session on the day, the envoys not only tasted Sichuan red, Liubao tea, Mengdingshan tea and Hongya green tea, but Chinese calligraphers and painters also splashed ink on the spot, allowing the envoys to China to use Chinese calligraphy and freehand brushwork. In the landscape painting, feel the profoundness and profoundness of Chinese culture.

"The word'Encounter of Tea and Wine' is very well written and has a profound meaning. It is like the encounter of tea and wine. It represents the blending and collision of Eastern and Western cultures, and reflects what the Chinese call'harmony without difference The spirit connotation of the United States and the United States." Carlos Watson, the representative of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization in China, said that the "International Tea Day" initiated by China and established by the United Nations is a common holiday for tea lovers around the world. Countries should take advantage of this opportunity , To accelerate the development of the tea industry and promote tea trade to play a more important role in the world economic structure.

"It's not that you look old, but that you drink too little tea." Focusing on the topic that drinking tea is good for physical and mental health, Liu Zhonghua, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, aroused a round of applause from the audience and a wave of barrage from the online audience.

If the masters of tea maker let people see how professional good tea was "born", then the folk tea making methods of various countries in the world show people the different tea customs that Chinese tea has changed after going abroad.

The Hakka Lei Tea of Gannan in China and the Three Teas of the Bai Nationality in Yunnan belong to the national intangible cultural heritage, with far-reaching historical origins and cultural heritage, as well as strong national characteristics. At the scene, the special production methods and health benefits of Lei Cha have made foreign netizens still unfinished, and the profound philosophical implication of the Bai nationality's three teas, one bitter, two sweet and three aftertastes, is even more enlightening.

Through the cloud connection, the exotic customs and tea-drinking customs of Malaysia, Russia and other countries are refreshing. The process of making pull tea in Malaysia is as if the beating notes are unforgettable when the hands are up and down; the Russian samovar has the same origin as the Chinese Inner Mongolia milk tea, which not only retains the Chinese tea drinking elements, but also combines the country’s climate characteristics and diet. The characteristics are changed.

"This allows us to understand more deeply that tea originated in China. In the process of spreading to different countries, through the fusion and collision with local folk culture, it derives tea culture with national characteristics." There are foreign netizens on the screen. Leave such a text on.

Is the so-called "harmony without difference, beauty and beauty together; tea and the world, sharing development". With its unique economic, social and cultural value, tea closely connects 3 billion tea-drinking populations in more than 160 countries and regions around the world.

Tea is destined, but drinking is boundless. We believe that the future of tea will be better.
