Zigng lanterns illuminate a clrful wrld thrugh great ideas and cl tech
自贡彩灯：传统技艺与高科技的碰撞
Frm Chinese culture enthusiasts t League f Legends fans, everyne can find smething they’re passinate abut at the Zigng Lantern Festival in Zigng, Sichuan prvince. Dating back t the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the festival has rapidly evlved (发展), incrprating the finest elements frm ther splendid cultures and using mdern technlgies. In 2008, the Zigng Lantern Festival was listed as a natinal cultural heritage.
“Making a giant lantern suitable fr exhibitin typically requires 17 steps,” said Wan Sngta, an inheritr f Zigng lantern-making. “Each step is accmplished by a team instead f a single maker,” Wan added. A sundial (日晷) made by Wan’s team, fr example, tk abut 80 artisans (工匠) ver 50 days frm drafting the design t final light adjustments (调整).
Setting themselves apart frm lanterns in ther places, Zigng lanterns use mdern technlgies such as AI, mechanical engineering, and hlgraphy (全息摄影术). They serve as perfect cmbinatins f lights, sunds and mvements. Fr example, the sundial emplys mechanical transmissin t pwer an amazing Chinese dragn that revlves (旋转) arund its rim (边缘).
Mst traditinal crafts have been limited t specific families r grups. Hwever, the inheritance f Zigng lantern-making is unique as it “is driven and led by the gvernment, which encurages all citizens t learn the craft”, explained Zhang Fanglai, a leading researcher at the Clrful Lantern Museum f China.
Furthermre, there are n thematic limits at the Zigng Lantern Festival. “Anything that can be shwn n a lantern can make a wnderful display, and everyne is encuraged t turn their ideas int reality,” Zhang stated.
The diverse themes f Zigng lanterns mirrr the inclusivity (包容性) that has been rted in the hearts f the lcal peple fr years. Zhang Fanglai said that Zigng is a city shaped by immigratin. “Migrants frm ther cities nt nly invested their mney but als brught their unique cultures,” Zhang explained.
“At the heart f the Zigng Lantern Festival’s success is the lcal traditin f cllabratin (合作) and embracing cultural diversity, bth within and beynd the city,” Zhang remarked. Driven by the cllective effrts f the entire city, it is hardly surprising that Zigng lanterns have reached cuntries like France, Russia, the United States and Lithuania.

Zigng’s craftspeple excel (擅长) nt nly in crafting large-scale lanterns but als in creating smaller nes suitable fr hme decratin.

The sample lanterns frm Zigng were astnishingly similar t the riginals, leading t a lantern exhibitin that left visitrs with lasting impressins.

When 16-year-ld Li Wei received an invitatin t his British classmate Emma’s birthday party, he was s excited that he almst jumped up. Having mved frm Shanghai just three mnths ag, he felt the party was his first real chance t make friends. His mther had spent the entire mrning in their tiny apartment kitchen carefully preparing a gift: hmemade mncakes wrapped in red paper decrated with dragn patterns. “In China, red brings gd luck and the dragn represents strength,” she said prudly. “These mncakes carry ur family’s blessings.”
At the party, clrful ballns danced alng the ceiling (天花板), and the living rm was filled with the latest pp sngs. Li Wei nticed everyne’s gifts piled (堆放) n a table, and he placed his gift n the tp, whse traditinal appearance std ut amng the gifts. He lked arund and fund that mst f the faces were unfamiliar. S he sat dwn and listened t the music, waiting excitedly fr that big mment — pening the gifts. Sn it came. In the cheers f her friends, Emma walked ver t the table. Her eyes were immediately drawn t Li Wei’s uniquely wrapped gift. Hwever, when she pened it, silence fell as she stared at the unfamiliar pastries (糕点). “What…are these?” she asked hesitantly. A by leaned ver and laughed ludly, “Lks like play-dugh (橡皮泥)!” Heat rushed t Li Wei’s face as he stammered (结结巴巴地说), “They’re traditinal Chinese mncakes ...” Hwever, his vice was swallwed (淹没) by the laughter that fllwed.
Smene even whispered, “This might be leftvers frm his hme. He must think it’s a picnic uting.” Li Wei’s heart sank. He didn’t expect that his well-intended gift — a gesture f lve, nw turned int smething strange and unwelcme in this freign setting. The jyful atmsphere disappeared quickly, replaced by an uncmfrtable silence as guests lked at the mncakes as if they were strange bjects frm anther wrld. Just as Li Wei wished he culd disappear, he suddenly remembered what his mther had said with pride befre he came here.
