Moreover, in this cross - ocean cultural dialogue, the outdoor jackets from Sanmen, Zhejiang, also became a bright spot. “While preparing for the show, I was thinking about bringing elements of my hometown Sanmen to the South American folk event. When the news spread back home, it received strong support, and the Sanmen Outdoor Jacket Industry Association soon provided the performers with customized outdoor jackets.” Chen Min said. On the day of the performance, Mercedes was hit by a sudden drizzle. Just as she was worried that the performers might catch cold in their costumes, theoutdoor jacketfrom her hometown came in handy—rainproof and warm, winning praise from all the performers. Accompanied by the cheerful melody of Chacarera, a traditional Argentine folk dance, everyone felt warm on the outside and even warmer in their hearts. While immersing themselves in the charm of Chinese culture, the Argentine people genuinely experienced the quality of “Made in Sanmen” and “Made in China.”
此外,在这场跨越山海的文化对话里,来自浙江三门的冲锋衣也成为一抹亮色。“筹备展演时,我就想着要把家乡三门的元素带到南美民俗盛会上。消息传回家乡后得到了大力支持,三门冲锋衣协会很快为队员们提供了专属冲锋衣。”陈敏介绍,演出当天梅尔塞斯突下小雨,正担心队员穿演出服着凉,这件来自家乡的冲锋衣刚好派上用场,防雨又保暖,队员们赞不绝口。伴着阿根廷民族舞蹈Chacarera的欢快旋律,大家身上暖,心里更暖。在沉浸式感受中国文化魅力的同时,阿根廷民众实实在在感受到了“三门制造”“中国制造”的品质。
Hong Wenwu, President of the Argentine Wushu Federation, stated that people - to - people cultural exchanges serve as an important bridge to bring the peoples of the two countries closer and deepen bilateral friendship. Regular participation in local folk cultural events can not only continuously promote traditional cultural treasures such as Chinese martial arts and facilitate the overseas dissemination of Chinese culture, but also deepen people - to - people interactions and mutual trust between China and Argentina, enabling the friendly relations between the two nations to maintain sound development and forge ahead steadily.
阿根廷武术联合会会长洪文武表示,民间文化交流是拉近两国民众距离、增进双边情谊的重要桥梁。常态化参与当地民俗文化活动,既能持续推广中华武术等传统文化瑰宝,助力中华文化海外传播,又能深化中阿民间互动与互信,推动两国友好关系持续向好、行稳致远。
It is reported that this cultural performance serves as an important pre - event exchange activity, mainly to build momentum for the upcoming "First China in Mercedes" series of cultural events to be held in December. Taking the folk festival as a carrier, this event realized the integration and mutual learning of diverse cultures between China and Argentina. It not only enriched the content and forms of Argentina's traditional cultural festival, but also built a bridge for civilizational exchanges through non - governmental forces. The event vividly told Chinese stories and spread Chinese culture, injecting fresh vitality into people - to - people exchanges and friendly interactions between the two countries.
据悉,本次文化展演是重要的前置交流活动,主要为12月将举办的“首届中国在梅尔塞斯”系列文化活动预热造势。此次活动以民俗节庆为载体,实现了中阿多元文化的交融互鉴,既丰富了阿根廷传统文化节的内容、形式,也以民间力量搭建起文明交流的桥梁,生动讲述中国故事、传播中国文化,为两国人文交流与民间友好往来注入了全新活力。
