They showed their different styles and expressed the expectations of ordinary people in China for the Winter Olympics.

Zhang Yimou said that unlike the previous hot spots where hosts and stars were invited to perform skewering performances, there was no host at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, and people's nature was emphasized. "China is a big country in square dance. It can be seen in any city that people will dance and sing when they are happy, so I think (square dance) is very good." He said.

For the warm-up of this square dance, Zhang Yimou made it clear from the beginning that he would not look for professional actors, but planned to look for ordinary people from all over the country. "Later, due to the epidemic situation, the main participants in the performance were Beijing and Hebei, and the staff were not all' aunts', but children, students in primary and secondary schools, the elderly and so on. Ordinary people of different ages showed themselves on this international stage. The opening ceremony is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. I also hope that these ordinary people can show the world the atmosphere of our New Year. "

As the breakout director of the warm-up performance, Meng Yan said that this performance can be called "Chinese marching square dance". "Our director team has carefully designed to show the passion, enthusiasm and emotion of each age group.

At this stage, the main task is to constantly run in and become proficient, find small problems and hidden dangers, and constantly overcome them. "By this time, I will rehearse almost every day, and I will not rest for 24 hours during the day and night. It is not a rehearsal with people, or a rehearsal of the performance device. Now we must pay close attention to every second and every minute. "

As the Bird's Nest will not hold any competition during the Winter Olympics, it will give the opening and closing ceremonies more space and time. "Because the Bird's Nest only hosts the opening and closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympics, we can enter the stadium very early and make some changes and upgrades to the venue." Zhang Yimou said.

For the new technology in the Bird's Nest, Zhang Yimou said, for example, that the actors' tracks can be captured in real time through the ground screen, so as to realize the interaction between the actors and the ground screen.
