International Online Special: The Spring Festival is getting closer and closer. While foreign media put the Spring Festival celebrations in the spotlight, foreign netizens are also full of interest in the Spring Festival culture, but they pay more attention to the theme of rejuvenation, such as food, dogs and high-speed rail.
The Spring Festival is a time of reunion for thousands of families, and it is also a time when local specialty foods are "popular". This is because food not only stimulates taste buds, but also touches the homesickness of many wanderers.
On February 11th, the official Facebook account of Straits Times in Singapore posted a video on how to cook "Hakka potted dishes" for the New Year’s Eve. The netizen "Samson Thaddeus" commented that "the meals at home are always the best!" The Singaporean netizen "Kristine Wong" who is currently in Paris said: "I can’t wait to go home for the New Year! ! ！” Of course, there are also real "foodies" who focus on the food itself.

Bangladeshi netizens commented excitedly under the video: "Wow! It’s really unbelievable! Great! Love from Bangladesh. "
As the most loyal friend of human beings, dogs can always inspire people’s love, and the zodiac culture is mysterious to people outside the Chinese cultural circle, so "Year of the Dog" and "Dog" have become the focus of many foreign netizens.
Australia’s "Daily Telegraph" Facebook official account posted a post on the meaning of the Year of the Dog on the 11th, which triggered enthusiastic interaction among netizens. Australian netizen "Debbie Harper" commented: "This year is my birth year — — Year of the dog. 1982。” Another Sydney-based netizen "Anna Longley" is full of expectations for her upcoming child: "My third child will be born in the Year of the Dog!"
The photo social application Instagram user "orkyeh" recently released the dog group map with the theme of the Year of the Dog with more than 15,000 hits, which is obviously due to people’s love for dogs. The netizen "priya.5249349" expressed her love unabashedly: "Wow! Dogs are so cute! The smile is so cute! "
There are also many "crooked nuts" who are full of praise for the high-speed rail that changed Spring Festival travel rush, the "largest human migration".
Under a YouTube video released by "New China TV" on February 9, about Wuhan high-speed trains getting ready for Spring Festival travel rush, Malaysian netizen "Ma Jiayi" commented in Chinese: "I am a Malaysian Chinese, and the great rejuvenation of the motherland makes me so proud!" The Indian netizen "Ronit Kapoor" said with some envy: "China is always one step ahead of the world, while India is always 100 years behind the world." American netizen "azman abas" commented with mixed feelings: "Wow … … America is very busy … …”
In addition to ordinary netizens, media people and experts in related fields also showed strong interest in the capacity of China high-speed rail during its stay in Spring Festival travel rush. Robert Champion, a BBC business reporter, expressed his intention to interview high-speed rail passengers during the Spring Festival on his personal Twitter account. Matthew Luo Sier, an urban planner who claimed to work for the Boston City Government in the United States, forwarded a Bloomberg report on high-speed rail in China on Twitter, and quoted the content of the article as saying: "400 million Chinese will take the train during the Spring Festival … … High-speed rail will help to change the economic imbalance between the east and the west of China.
