杭州亚运会以创新的、壮观的场景开幕

胡静

The day of Autumn Equinox（秋分）， the 19th Asian Games opening ceremony began. On top of the spectacular images and heartwarming moments， this opening ceremony also combined the avant-garde（前卫的） practice of digital technology and green energy.

In this opening ceremony， the Qiantang River and iconic Gongchen Bridge connecting ancient and modern times were directly projected onto the stage through the design of naked eye 3D visual effects and virtual images. The integration of naked-eye 3D technology， augmented reality （AR）， and artificial intelligence （AI） has brought a fresh and exciting experience to viewers worldwide.

The cauldron lighting form of the opening ceremony of large-scale sports events has always attracted much attention. The “virtual and reality integration” lighting ceremony was displayed for the first time， showcasing the technological innovation of the intelligent era.

For the last part of the ceremony， hundreds of millions of people across Asia were full of enthusiasm to witness the torchbearer， Wang Shun， and the “digital torchbearer” light the main torch tower together.

Each online participant is a point of light that converges（汇聚） on the Qiantang River to form a figurative “digital person” who meets with the torchbearer at the main venue to light the main torch tower. This demonstrates the resonance（共鸣） between the digital world and the real world， and expresses the wish for a community of common destiny in Asia to be built.

The Global Times learned that， the “digital torchbearer” online torch relay activity was launched simultaneously（同时） with the real torch relay. Before the opening ceremony， the online Asian Games “digital torchbearer” total number has exceeded 104 million.

Zhang Shaorong， General Manager of the Alipay Asian Games Office of Ant Group， told the Global Times that there are very few Internet platforms in China that have undertaken such large-scale online activities in the past.

Currently， most of the mainstream 3-D interactive engines in the market， such as Unity and Unreal Engine， are developed by foreign manufacturers， but these “heavyweight” products have high requirements for mobile devices， Fang Kai， user and public welfare director of Ant Groups Alipay technology department， told the Global Times.
