Chapter 40 Salute the national flag! No regrets for joining China!
The three members of the flag-raising team walked onto the pedestal and prepared to raise the flag.

"Everyone! Salute the flag!"

With a swish, all the team members raised their arms at the same time and gave a standard military salute!

The actions are highly consistent!
It's like it was made by one person!

The ceremonial band played the national anthem, and the loud singing echoed over the square!

"Rise up, those who refuse to be slaves! Use our flesh and blood to build our new Great Wall!"

The flag-raiser unfolded the five-star red flag, hung it on the flagpole, pressed the button, and the national flag slowly rose into the sky!

Everyone looked serious as they looked at the bright five-star red flag!

It is dyed with the blood of martyrs!

Countless revolutionary predecessors sacrificed their lives and shed their blood to give us the happy life we ​​have today.

The flag-raising ceremony held every day is to remind us.

Don’t forget that period of time, don’t forget the revolutionary pioneers who dared to be the first in the world!
The old man took off his hat, looked in the direction of the national flag, with tears in his eyes.

Children wearing red scarves salute towards the national flag.

Everyone hummed the national anthem in a low voice, and a grand scene of tens of thousands of people singing together was formed in Tiananmen Square!
Anna was also infected by this atmosphere and even had an urge to cry!

She is increasingly understanding why China is developing so fast.
Decades ago, it was still a poor and weak country that needed help from Russia.

But in just a few decades, it has become so powerful that it can even provide aid to the Russian bear!

Perhaps, this is the reason why China is so powerful.

They have unparalleled cohesion!

From top to bottom, everyone truly loves their motherland and is willing to contribute to it.

Anna has been to many countries, and no country is as united as China.

And you can only see a flag-raising ceremony like this in China!
Even if the suffering is extreme, even if the humiliation is extreme, as long as there is hope, China will eventually rise and stand proudly at the top of the world!

I have no regrets about joining China in this life. This great country is flourishing and strong!
She followed everyone else's example and gave a not-so-standard military salute!
The five-star red flag has risen high into the sky and is fluttering in the wind!
But everyone raised their right hands and was unwilling to put them down!

[Huaxia's flag-raising ceremony is so shocking! I finally understand why they came so early! ]

[I used to think that Chinese people had no faith, I admit I was wrong, this is the faith of Chinese people! ]

[Except for China, it is hard for me to imagine that there would be tens of thousands of people waiting for the national flag to be raised! ]

[After watching this flag-raising ceremony, I really got goosebumps all over my body! ]

[I am very grateful to China. Although I did not live in a peaceful era, I was born in a peaceful country! ]

In an instant, all the voices slandering and defaming China disappeared.

All the netizens in the live broadcast room were shocked by this scene!
After the flag-raising ceremony, the ceremonial band played songs singing the motherland, and the guard of honor returned one by one.

Why can they walk so in unison?
Because they have gone through tens of thousands of training sessions!

The team members who can participate in the flag-raising ceremony are selected from tens of thousands of people.'

Standing out from thousands of people is just the first step.

Next they will have intensive training for four months, during which they will train for more than ten hours a day.

It can be said that apart from eating and resting, the rest of the time is all spent on training.

You have to stand for at least four hours every day, practice standing steadily in strong winds, and look at the sun without blinking.

Tie a sandbag to practice kicking, use a ruler to measure your stride length, and use a stopwatch to record your pace.

Hang bricks under the butt of the gun to train your arm strength, and hold stones under your armpits to practice positioning.

The last level is flag power.

The flag-raiser swings the national flag in a fan shape, which is called flag unfurling.

Folding the national flag into a cone shape is called folding the flag.

Each stretch and each retraction is the result of thousands of times of practice. Every day, I am so tired that my fingers bleed and I can’t even pick up chopsticks.

Train 25,000 steps a day, and complete a new Long March in two years!

They trained like this every day for at least four months.

After a day of training, I am exhausted.

It takes countless times of practice to present such a shocking flag-raising ceremony!
Even so, they signed up for the flag guard without hesitation.

Because this is an honor, a supreme honor!

When the national flag, which symbolizes the dignity of the country, rises from your hands, a sense of accomplishment arises spontaneously!
138 steps are the number of steps from Jinshui Bridge to the flagpole!

96 steps is the number of steps the guard team takes when marching across Chang'an Avenue!
75 cm is the length of each step!

2 minutes and 07 seconds is the time when the national flag is raised!

365 days a year, there must be a five-star red flag in Tiananmen Square, rising with the sun!
"My dear, this is so shocking!"

Anna wiped the tears from her eyes.

At the last moment, she couldn't hold back and a few tears burst out.

"How about it? It's worth getting up early today, right?" Chen Lu smiled proudly.

He had already thought of it, no matter who it is, they will be shocked by China's flag-raising ceremony!

“It’s totally worth it!”

If they settle down in Beijing in the future, Anna would like to get up early every day to watch the flag-raising ceremony!

What's a lazy sleep?
It's nothing compared to the flag-raising ceremony!
Not far away, an old man was holding a child.

The five-star red flag in the child's hand accidentally fell to the ground.

The old man quickly bent down, picked up the national flag, and said earnestly: "Child, remember, no matter what time, you can't throw away the national flag in your hand!"

The national flag is a symbol of a country and represents the dignity of the country!
A person should at least have a sense of awe for the national flag!
[Ward? You picked it up even though it fell on the ground. How dirty!]

[Do Chinese people attach so much importance to the national flag? ]

[In our Eagle Sauce, the Stars and Stripes are meant to be burned! ]

[So you are just a loose federation, while China is an ancient civilization with strong cohesion! ]

After watching the flag-raising ceremony, Chen Lu first took Anna to have breakfast.

We are going to climb the Great Wall soon, which will consume a lot of physical energy, so we must eat enough.

The variety of breakfast in Beijing is quite rich, which is very different from the breakfast in Chang'an.

The two turned into a street, and the entire street was filled with stalls selling breakfast.

The stall owners were soliciting customers, and Anna was dazzled by the variety of breakfasts.

Anna wanted to eat everything and was almost overwhelmed by the choices.

"Anna, have you made your choice?"

She bit her lip, seeming to have a hard time making a decision.

This street was like a food kingdom, making Anna lost in it.

There are so many delicious foods, I really don’t know which one to eat!

Woo woo woo I want to eat them all!
I have difficulty making choices!
"Chen, why don't you choose? I really can't choose!"

Chen Lu understands this feeling very well.

After all, there aren't many delicious foods in Russia, but he can count at least a dozen types of breakfast in Beijing.

The most distinctive breakfast in Beijing is undoubtedly the trio of soy milk, fried dough sticks, and shredded pickled vegetables.

　Thanks to Chen Lixiong and Wei Xiao for the reward, and thanks to everyone for the monthly tickets and recommendation tickets
