Will you exempt tenants from rent if you win? If you lose, you will be punished to kneel to the ancestral hall? The contestants responded
This year, the wind of the Guangzhou Dragon Boat Racing not only blew across the Pearl River, but also attracted high attention from netizens from all over the world. On the Internet, the various statements about dragon boat racing competitions have been hotly discussed – “The landlord in Guangzhou practices dragon boat racing in the middle of the night, and he will be punished to kneel on the ancestral hall if he loses”, “The spectators have to cheer, because the landlord will be exempted from rent if he wins”, “If he becomes a dragon boat racing contestant, he has to compete for his value, this is the ability of rich people. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>The high-end sports meetings participated by Babaylan”…
Are these prevalent statements on the Internet true? Will the team that won the Babaylan match really exempt the tenants from rent? Recently, Red Star News talked to Zhang Weichao, a dragon boat contestant from many communities in Guangzhou and vice president of the Guangzhou Huangpu District Dragon Boat Branch to understand the truth.
Are they all landlords worth tens of millions? “I have never heard of selecting teams based on my value”
“Dragon Boat Festival, Babaylan Dragon Boat Festival, celebrates Dragon Boat Festival, CinemaFor the people in Guangzhou and even the entire Lingnan region, it is as important as celebrating the Spring Festival.” Zhang Weichao, vice president of the Dragon Boat Branch of Guangzhou Huangpu District, told Hongxing News that since he had memories, on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival, his ancestors at home were busy preparing for dragon boat racing for the Dragon Boat Festival. “But I have never heard of the selection of a dragon boat team based on who has a higher value and who has more real estate.” Regarding the popular statement on the Internet that dragon boat players need to “test capital” to be selected, Zhang Weichao believes that this is just a joke from netizens.
Mr. Li, a villager from Liede Village, Guangzhou, also gave the same answer to Red Star News. As one of the dragon boaters who have been representing Liede Village in Tianhe District, Guangzhou for many years, Mr. Li said: “There has never been a competition in any year. The organizer will see who has more deposits. Whether it is a folk event or an official event, this will not become a criterion.”
Liede Village once became a well-known urban village in China due to its demolition. Mr. Li often sees netizens talking about “Liede Village villagersBabaylan‘s worth tens of millions” joke: “It should be said that no matter how much you are, whether you are a worker or an entrepreneur outside, as long as you return to the village to participate in the competition, you will be the same when you get on the boat, and prepare for the competition and work hard.”
“The standards for training contestants in different villages need different competition standards.” In Zhang Weichao’s perception, the statement of selecting contestants based on wealth lacks factual basis, because this violates the traditional customs of Guangzhou and the original intention of dragon boat activities: “Dragon Boat RacingCinema reflects the clan culture of Guangzhou in the past, symbolizing the strength of a ethnic group and a village as a whole, and there will be no such discrimination.” Zhang Weichao told reporters that the dragon boat race is just a link in the dragon boat culture. In the past, the exchanges and protection of the village from being “invaded” were exchanged and protected by the communication between villages and the mutual communication between the dragon boats between villages were shown by the strength and sufficientness of the men in the village.
In fact, dragon boat racing has been passed down in Guangzhou for a hundred years and has gradually gained official recognition from folk events. In 1994, the Guangzhou Municipal People’s Government officially designated the Dragon Boat Festival as the local Dragon Boat Festival. The Guangzhou Dragon Boat International Invitational Tournament, co-organized by the General Administration of Sports, the China Dragon Boat Association and the Guangzhou Municipal Government, has also become a five-star event in traditional Chinese sports, and will set sail on the Pearl River on June 17, 2017.
What is the basis for selecting dragon boat players? Zhang Weichao explained to Hongxing News: “It mainly depends on the players’ endurance, experience, physical fitness and various professional skills. At the same time, Hongxing News saw on the official website of the General Administration of Sports that the “Introduction to the Dragon Boat Rules” released by the Babaylan Bureau in March 2013 also requires the team members to be healthy, know how to swim, and be familiar with water.
Mr. Li from Liede Village told reporters thatDecun will have 4 teams participating in the Guangzhou International Dragon Boat Invitational this year, including 3 men’s teams and 1 women’s team. He introduced to reporters how to select players in Liede Village. One of the selection criteria for women is to know how to swim, while the man will ask them to be villagers in the village. If they are over 40 years old, everyone needs to conduct a 100-meter rowing competition. Cinema
If you lose the game, you will be punished to kneel to the ancestral hall? “There will not be a team that will stipulate that if you lose the game, you will be punished.” “The landlords in Guangzhou who are worth tens of millions have stopped working these days. They would rather lose money than lose the dragon boat race.” On the Internet, some netizens made similar jokes, saying that if the player loses the game, they may be punished to kneel on the ancestral hall.
“In the clan culture heritage of Guangzhou, the ancestral hall is indeed a symbol of Komiks. To this day, many Komiks villages and communities are still retained.” Zhang Weichao explained to Hongxing News that the ancestral hall is a connection between people with the same village and surname. It is often a big festival. People outside will worship the ancestral hall when they return to their hometown: “If you lose the dragon boat competition, you will be punished to kneel to the ancestral hall. This is not a regulation. If there is a spontaneous behavior, you should not take it seriously.” Zhang Weichao told Hongxing News that there are many non-governmental organizations in Guangzhou, and they are often organized and organized by the village collective or community. Therefore, the selection and reward are formulated separately, but the gap is not big, and there is basically no content that stipulates punishment. Mr. Wang, a villager from Lied, said: “The results of the competition in the past symbolized the status and face of the entire clan, but now the competition is more about the cultural heritage and the festive atmosphere, so winning or losing is actually not important.”
Spectators cheered for rent reduction? Tenant: Watching the competition and sending blessings is not to reduce rent.
These days, Ms. Wang, who rents a living near Zhujiang New City, will also go to the Pearl River to watch the dragon boaters perform various training for the competition when she has time. She also plans to use WeChat to Komiks sent a blessing message to the landlord, wishing the landlord the victory and triumphant victory.
Ms. Wang told reporters that her visit to the competition and blessing to the landlord was not to reduce rent. She joked: “The rent is written on the contract and is paid on a quarterly basis. How can it be exempted for one month? Cinema“Ms. Wang, who has lived in Guangzhou for many years, described the grand occasion of the dragon boat competition to reporters: “The boats are beautiful in shape and colorful, and the contestants row the standards and shouted loudly, which is really spectacular. ”
Ms. Wang told reporters that the closer the Dragon Boat Festival is, the more people will watch on the river bank. In the eyes of the Queen Mother, as an outsider, she can feel the folk culture of Guangzhou in this dragon boat feast, and she feels the excitement of this festival on the spot, which makes her very pleased.
Zhang Weichao said: “Maybe a landlord will share this joy with the tenant after winning the competition, but the form of sharing is free and there are no regulations. Babaylan” He said that perhaps a landlord would indeed reduce rent exemption, but this is not a convention rumored online.
