Excellent Changde Poets Festival Guidelines Reference
Dear leaders and distinguished guests:
Hello everyone! Welcome to Changde, the "City of Poetry", and thank you all for coming to participate in the Xth China Changde Poets Festival. Here, on behalf of the more than 6 million hard-working and kind-hearted Changde people, I would like to welcome you all. My name is ***, guests can just call me Xiao*. I hope my explanation can help everyone know more about my hometown.
On September 17, 2003, the first China·Changde Poets Festival was held in Changde. Nearly three hundred poets and calligraphers and painters from all over the country gathered here. That is, at the first Poets Festival, The Chinese Poetry Society decided to grant Changde the honorable title of the first "City of Poetry" in the country.
An excellent tourist city in China, a charming city in China, a beautiful city with peach blossoms and flowing water, this is my hometown Changde.
Whenever I talk about my hometown, I can't help but sigh: "It's a city you don't want to leave once you come here! What a wonderful home!" I will inevitably make everyone feel a little bit uncomfortable when I say this. Wang Po is suspected of selling melons, but I have solid evidence. Judging from the elements of time, location, and people, I heard that a beautiful city must have three conditions:
First, it has a long history: It is generally believed that a city without culture and history The city is not a good city. Changde is an ancient cultural city with a long history. It was built in 277 BC by General Zhang Ruo during the Warring States Period. It was called "Zhang Ruocheng" in history. It was also called Wuling in the Han Dynasty, Langzhou in the Tang Dynasty, and Langzhou in the Song Dynasty. It was also called Dingzhou at that time, and it was not until 1117 AD that it was renamed Changde. It has been used since then, and it has a history of more than 2270 years. What Changde people are proud of is that it has a long history and culture and has always had a flourishing humanities. The Shanjuan culture, which originated in the era of Yao and Shun, is the earliest written record and important source of Chinese moral culture; more than 6,000 years ago, our ancestors built a city here and worked hard here. Chengtou Mountain is the "mother of cities" in China; Peng The ancient rice field of Toushan is the "source of rice cultivation" in China.
The second is the beautiful scenery: "The land is flat, the houses are neat, there are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo trees, traffic on the slender roads, and chickens and dogs can hear each other." Mr. Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Spring" tells the world It depicts a pastoral pastoral scene. Changde is located in the northwest of Hunan Province. It has a very unique geographical location. To the west is the Wuling Mountains and the Xuefeng Mountains, with many mountains; in the middle is a hilly landform with alternating hills, shallow hills and valleys, with rolling hills; to the east is the vast Dongting Lake. There are three urban green screens on the periphery of Changde's urban area: Hefu Mountain, Taiyang Mountain, and Deshan. In the city, there are three major water systems: Yuanjiang River, Chuanzi River, and Liuye Lake, forming a rare urban landscape of three mountains and three rivers. Furthermore, from the perspective of Feng Shui, Changde has the Yuanjiang River in the front, Liangshan Mountain in the back, and a Yuanbao shape in the middle. It is a place to gather wealth! Haha, it’s not superstition, Changde is indeed a good place!
The third is social harmony: "Coming and planting crops", "Yellow hair hanging down, and enjoying themselves", "Peach Blossom Spring" outlines a picture of simple folk customs, where everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and lives in harmony with each other. Beautiful view of happy life. Harmonious Changde is the goal that the people of Changde strive for. Changde covers an area of 18,200 square kilometers, with a total population of 6.01 million. The urban area is 116 square kilometers, the urban population is 610,000, and it governs two districts and six counties (Dingcheng District and Wuling District). , the six counties refer to Taoyuan County, Anxiang County, Linli County, Li County, Shimen County and an escrow city, Jinshi City). It is the transportation hub, energy base and economic and cultural center of northwest Hunan. Under the correct leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and with the concerted efforts of the people of Changde, Changde has been rated as: China's Excellent Tourism City, National Sanitary City, National Garden City, National Civilized City, National Traffic Management Model City, and International Garden City. And in 2006, it was rated as an "International Garden City". The former mayor, Mr. Chen Junwen, personally served as the city's recommender. With the slogan "City in the Peach Blossom Spring", it hired the late famous crosstalk performing artist Mr. Ma Ji. As a city recommender, Changde stands out among many Jiji cities and has been rated as an international garden city together with Zhuhai and other cities. Changde's telecommunications industry has developed rapidly in recent years, and Changde has also been rated as a "National Telephone City". These are the best interpretations of harmony and Changde, and the best interpretation of the Changde spirit of "virtue in the world, harmony and progress".
At present, we are working towards the goal of "famous cultural city" and believe that we can build Changde even better in the near future. This is my hometown, Changde, a city in the peach blossom garden, a city in the paradise of heaven and earth. "City in the Peach Blossom Spring" is Changde's tourism image slogan, which fully embodies the connotation of Changde's tourism culture. This is why tourists left poems like this after coming to Changde, "I got drunk like this, fell in love with Changde like this!"
Changde City is a beautiful place, a place that gave birth to poets. A place where poetry is produced. What is printed on the poetry wall in Changde, China is the poetry written by Changde people since the pre-Qin Dynasty, and the poetry related to Changde written by people related to Changde. In the fertile soil of Changde, good poems emerge in endlessly. The great poet, thinker and philosopher of the Tang Dynasty wrote 163 poems during his 10-year Sima period in Changde, which was the most glorious period in his creative career. He is the ancient writer with the most poems published on the Changde Poetry Wall in China. Of course, modern Changde people also love poetry and poetry creation very much. The trend of studying poetry, loving poetry, and writing poetry in the city is increasing day by day. Currently, the city has nearly 100 poetry societies at all levels, with more than 14,850 poetry society members; Changde City Poetry The Recitation Association currently has more than 200 members, and it often holds recitation training classes and organizes various poetry recitals. We hold the biannual Poet Festival not only for the spiritual and cultural pursuits of Changde people, but also to connect friends with poetry, drive the cultural industry with poetry, and promote and drive economic development with the cultural industry.
