1、视频字幕Chinese New Year（3） I. Script Welcome to Hong Kong.Tonight we are inviting you to the worlds biggest party.As all over China,families are getting together to celebrate Chinese New Year.Now we are overlooking Victoria Harbour.This is one of Chinas largest and busiest ports. Apart from our boat,it

2、 is fairly quiet.Thats because this is a national holiday.But dont be fooled,you see,later on，literally hundreds of thousands of people will gather right here for the highlight of the festivities and we will be joining them on the final leg of a journey that has taken us to the far corners of China

3、to discover how the people here celebrate this the most important time of their year.In this New Years day,the first day of the year of monkey and the culmination of our journey.For the last two showsWe witnessed the incredible migration of people all over China,as they travelled home for the Spring

4、 Festival.I met families flying home in Beijing Airport.All around me people are coming before New Year.And I get to turn on the very last building.And the Hairy Bikes found out what New Years Eve in Beijing was like when they cooked a special reunion supper with a local family.Its magical,it is gre

5、at.New Years Eve is all about getting together with family,but here in Hong Kong the days after New Year are when the people hit the streets.And we have been right at the heart of the preparations of this spectacular party.We will be celebrating Chinese New Year Hong Kong style.I will be finding out

6、 about the ancient art of dragon and lion dancing.Its surprisingly heavy when you are doing this!Oh,sorry.Lets go.And I will be enjoying some genuine Hong Kong glamour at the spectacular New Years night parade.Its loud.Its noisy.Its a carnival atmosphere.Everybody is dancing.Happy New Year!And the p

7、arty doesnt stop in the rest of China.Dave and Si are discovering what Beijingres traditionally do on New Years Day.Happy Chinese New Year!In amongst the glazy buildings that line Victoria Harbour are old colonial buildings that were once the headquarters of the British Administration that ran Hong

8、Kong.On the first of July 1997,Hong Kong was formally handed back to China ending 156 years of British rule.Although it shares many cultural with China,as a global center of finance and with its international history.Hong Kong has always maintained its own unique identity.The region of Hong Kong is

9、on the southern coast of China at the Pearl River estuary,an area composed of more than 250 islands,the urban core of Hong Kong is Hong Kong island and Kowloon.Kong is the Chinese world for Harbour and Hong means fragrant or picturesque and indeed before this came the metropolis it is today,it would

10、 have been very picturesque,a tiny little fishing community.Now its an entirely different sort of picturesque.This is one of the most recognised and photographed skylines in the world.Hong Kong truly is a vertical city.Because of its geography,space is at a premium which means,it has one of highest

11、population densities in the world.There are over7 million people here with 57000 people per square kilometre in places.To house them all, the city has had to build upwards.Today Hong Kong has over 460 skyscrapers 100 metres or taller.London,just 49.And its tallest is the International Commerce Centr

12、e.You can take the shard and put Nelsons column on top three times and it will still be smaller.Hong Kong is one of the worlds most important financial trading centres and is home to 55 billionaires.There are more Rolls-Royc.es per person in Hong Kong than any other city in the world.Plus,last year,

13、one local businessman bought a diamond ring for 32 million pounds.It was for his seven-year-old daughter.Since 1997,Hong Kong has been run as a special administrative region of China，but with own government and law.Unlike much of mainland China，people in Hong Kong speak Cantonese and are fiercely pr

14、oud of their culture,language and especially their cuisine.So varied is the food here that people fondly joke that Cantonese will eat anything with four legs that isnt a table！No other city impresses Chinese New Year celebration with such energy,enthusiasm.and sheer expenditure as Hong Kong.Despite

15、its modern appearance,Hong Kong still respect ancient customs at Chinese New Year.Especially when it comes to food.One very popular New Year meal is fish.And throughout the holidays，Hong Kongs fish markets go into overdrive.This is Aberdeen Fish market.Its the biggest wholesale fish market in the wh

16、ole of Hong Kong，and its always busy but int the run-up to New Year its absolutely frantic.The fish that is sold here will go out to holes,restaurants and food market all over the city.Covering 15700 square metres,its a place that reflect Hong Kongs international flavour with catches coming from as

17、far afield as the USA,Ireland and Australia.Fish from the main market are brought to smaller markets like this one in Bowrington Road and locals will come here everyday to find the freshest fish that Hong Kong has to offer.The choice is overwhelming.Luckily,I have a guide to take me around the marke

18、t,local chief David Lai.David,one thing I have noticed in Hong Kong is that there dont seem to be supermarkets anywhere really that most people seem to buy their food in litter street market like this one.In supermarket it tends to be a lot of imported stuff,but at the market it is mostly caught loc

19、ally.Wherever in the world,you go to the Chinese restaurant,you go to China Town, there is always a fish tank,they always keep their fish alive as much as possible.Right-For example,the fish that is swimming in the tank,they worth almost twice amount as the ones that are out of water.Hong Kong began

20、 as a fishing village，so I think people have become used to the idea that,you know,fish should be very fresh.I was just looking when you said how fish it is.I am looking at.there are literally，fish hopping about in the trays.And it is clearly a very important dish for New Year.But why is it?Because

21、there.there seem to be a lot of beliefs around certain foods for this time of year.The word fish,in Chinese,in Cantonese is Yu.Yu means plentiful.Dose that then mean that by eating fish,the idea is that you have a bountiful year coming on?That s the idea！Fish is such an important part of the New Yea

22、r festivities and the shoppers here are experts when it comes to the best way to prepare it.Can you tell me how you might cook it?Ill steam it with preserved cabbage.Traditionally,fish should be cooked whole,including the head and tail,to suggest completeness and the head should always face the elde

23、rs at the table as a mark of respect.Fish should be at the last dish on the menu and it is particularly auspicious to have a little left over at the end. Well,as you can see, the people of Hong Kong are absolutely spoiled when it comes to fish,is really easy for them to have any number of species on

24、 their table.But there is a community in north China that has to go to extraordinary lengths to catch fish,as Ant discovered.He travelled thousands of miles north to Chagan Lake.Its five in the morning.And Ive come to what feels like the very ends of the earth.This is way of life that has remained u

25、nchanged for centuries.Im traveling with a convoy of fishermen in Jilin Province 1800 miles north-east of Hong kong.This is Chagan Lake.The temperature is an eye watering -40 degrees.Chagan means literally sacred or white.And it is certainly white,thats because this entire lake is covered in ice up

26、to a metre thick.For locals this is something of a sacred place,thats because this vast lake is the home of bighead carp.Bighead carp is a local delicacy that the Chinese believe,like all fish,brings good luck for New Year.The people here has been fishing for carp in just this way for over a thousan

27、d years,its in their blood.This group is led by Mr Zhang,an expert in tracking down shoals of bighead carp.Finding a spot here is no easy task.Chagan Lake is a featureless ice sheet.I look around,all I can see is horizon.Its 25 miles long and covers a surface of 160 square miles.Thats basically the

28、size of Glasgow.Whats incredible is that Mr.Zhang just seem to know where to look.Theres no street signs,theres no map.Id need a sat nav.Our fishing techniques come from years of experience.We know which way the fish swim and we rely on the wind direction.The most difficult part is the freezing temp

29、erature on the ice.We are happiest when we catch lots and lots of fish.The more fish,the happier we are!They start by cutting a big hole in the ice.The first hole is critical,its the entrance through which they will eventually feed the net.The team launched a 50 metre pole into the water which is at

30、tached to a rope like a giant needle and thread which in turn is connected to the net.moving out from here,they dig a series of 200 smaller holes so they can reach through the ice and guide the poll and met in the right direction.Using traditional tools and with ice up to a metre thick, it is tough

31、work.And Ive offered to help,but Im not sure the locals are too keen.Its a sharp metal prod on the end of wooden handle and he is using it to dive into the ice and create these smaller holes.Give me this one,my friend.You can relax.Once theyve used the axe to pick at the ice and create the hole,we t

32、hen use the shovel to try and scoop it out.What?Whats wrong?Im doing my very best,my friend.He makes it look so easy.You see now he has broken through the ice,water is coming through,this hole is almost done.And they are just going for the next one.Whilst they dig more holes,back at the start,its ti

33、me to cast the net.Now the guys are just spreading out making sure it feeds into the hole.Thats an astonishing two kilometres long.What happens is If it has any snags,it wont spread under the ice,so we wanted to spread nicely and catch as many fish as possible.A massive team of people.Everybody know

34、s exactly what they are doing.But absolutely freezing cold.We now have travelled around two kilometres from the first hole we dug in the early hours of this morning.And this is end of our journey.This is the exit hole.Its here that they gonna pull the net from under the ice.We may be in the middle o

35、f nowhere but it draws quite a crowd.Locals buying their fresh fish from the lake mingle with curious tourists looking to take home a New Years treat.The net has been under water for three hours now,so it is time to bring it in.Fishing in this way is a traditional method,its 1000 years old,and theyr

36、e still using those techniques today.This is called capstone and is driven by horsepower.What the horses are doing is theyre rotating a central pivot and pulling the rope through.That rope is drawing the net from under the ice.Its so heavy that the fishermen themselves wouldnt be able to do it.They

37、rely on the strength of the horses.The hard it gets,the more weight,the more horses they use.In this case,four horses is enough.Its pretty strange,there is a kind of expectant calm before the storm.The whole place is really busy.But if feels really quiet.People realize that the catch is coming.After

38、 about an hour of the net not really producing an fish,it is now filled to the brim with fish.Wow,wow,wow.Theyre pulling it out.Pulling it out.Everybody is just getting involved. There is fish everywhere.There is a real sense of excitement.There are some real monsters in these nets,some massive mass

39、ive fish.You can feed the whole family with just one of these.This is it,this is the bighead carp that I came here for.Mr Zhang says I can take a fish home.All I need to do is find someone to cook it for me.The harvest takes two hours to pull in and its a bumper catch.The fish are packed into basket

40、s and taken back to the shore of the lake where they will be packed and distributed all across China.Its been a long day.The hole has been a good one.And now we are finally off the ice,I really want to see what all the fuss is about.The traditional way to cook bighead carp is to braise it with chili

41、es,ginger and spring onions.And here it is.It looks and smells absolutely fantastic,doesnt it?This is the bit I have been waiting for the most after a long hard day grafting on the ice.This is the reward.I get to try the fish.Caught in the morning,cooked in the evening.That is absolutely sensational

42、.You can really taste the flavours.You dont get fresher this.Guys,dig in,dig in.This is amazing,this is why the people of China really embrace fresh fish in Chinese New Year.The fish is an important animal symbol at Chinese New Year,but there are many others.One powerful,mythical creature that holds

43、 enormous significance in Hong Kong and indeed all of China is the Dragon.Think of a Chinese New Year celebration and you are almost guaranteed to see this the ancient tradition of dragon dancing.It is especially important at New Year as Chinese legend has it that dragons are famed for bringing good

44、 luck to any new venture.This traditional art still thrives even in 21st-century Hong Kong,where the citys skilled Dragon dancers are always highly sought after.In Kowloon,Andy know leads the Kwok Kung fu and Dargon Lion Dance Team one of hundreds across China.I have come to see the teams final prep

45、arations for the festivities.Hello.-Good morning.Im kate.Nice to meet you.My goodness,this is amazing.This is called Dargon dance.And also we call this is daylight Dragon dance.Daylight Dragon dance?What is the significance of the dragon for Chinese New Year?Why is it so important?In your country,th

46、e dragon is a little bit evil,right?-Right.But we are not.You are not evil.So your dragon.Its god.Its kind.Its benevolent?Yeah.Also,bring all the good luck,money,happiness to people.So this is a key part of any Chinese New Year celebration is having a dragon being part of that?Yes.Dragon and lion da

47、nce and kung fu.Dragon and lion dance and kung fu.So they are all connected?Yeah,yeah,just like.The lion dance is also like this.OK?OK.OK.So you see the Dragon dancer?Can I have a go and just see what it is like to hold?Lovely,OK.Can I?Yeah,yeah.So,this one?Yeah.Traditionally,the dragon was a sign o

48、f strength and power and it was often used by Chinas emperors as their own symbol.It is surprisingly heavy when you are doing this.The most revered of the the mythical animals,its movement in the performance must demonstrate its power and dignity,and the longer it is,the more luck it will bring the

49、community.Oh,my goodness.OK.And you do start to feel part of this amazing animal.Sorry.Oh,my goodness.OK.I thought I was quite fit,but you use every part of your body,dont you?Year.-Every muscle.So that is where the kung fu comes in,that.that physical training.And you are all absolutely working as a team,dont you?Like breathe together.-Yeah.How long have you been doing this?Because my father is the master,maybe in my mothers.inside my mother.You were dragon dancing before you wew born!Ye
