Feuerwerk Megafeuerwerk in Shanghai zur APEC 2001

Pyro · 22. Okt. 2001

Meine Frau hat heute aus China angerufen (nein, nicht mein Zweitfrau ):

Zur APEC 2001 (Asia Pacific Economic) in Shanghai, bei dem alle Staatschefs der 21 APEC-Staaten anwesend waren (einschliesslich US-Präsident Bush), wurde am Samstag (20.10.) ein riesiges Feuerwerk mit feuerspeienden Drachen, grossem Logo und 20 Minuten Volle-Pulle-China-Höhenfeuerwerk abgebrannt. Das Feuerwerk stand unter dem Motto "Tonight is so Beautiful" und wurde von 23 Hochhäusern und 10 Pontons gezündet.
Einige Eindrücke und Infos von dem Megaevent gibts hier (sucht nach dem Begriff "fireworks" - die direkten Links funktionieren leider nicht richtig).

Soweit zu der Meinung einiger Veranstalter in Europa, vor allem aber in Deutschland "Feuerwerke wären in der aktuellen Lage pietätlos und völlig fehl am Platze"...

Tonight is so Beautiful!
Briefing of the Grand Fireworks Display for APEC 2001
(2001.10.20 22:19:30)

SHANGHAI, October 20 --The grand fireworks display "Tonight
is so Beautiful" was splendidly presented along the bank of
the Huangpu River on October 20. The magnificent fireworks demonstrated
the host warm welcome for all the APEC member economies and
also its good wishes to them for achieving the common goal of
prosperity in the new century.

The display lasting for about twenty minutes was made up
of six parts: "Happiness Falling from Heaven", "Peonies Blossoming",
"Flying Dragon in the Sky", "Imaginary Universe", "Good Wishes"
and "The Pearl Sparkling in the East".

The magnificent fireworks extended for 1,800 meters from
the Astronomical Observatory to the dock of the Yangtze River,
covering all the 23 Multi-National Buildings along the Bund.
5 ships plus 10 cruisers in the Huangpu River and the three
columns of the Oriental Pearl Radio & TV Tower were also shining
with golden light, which melt into the former. Arising from
the River surface to the height of 300 meters in the sky, multi-layered
and rich-colored fireworks formulated an extremely spectacular
picture.

Among all six parts of the display, the first, third and
sixth part were the most eye-catching. When the first amazing
part of the display "Blessings Falling from Heaven" is to drop,
two ships launched simultaneously 1000 sparkling pieces of fireworks
along the surface of the water forming a red carpet with 80
meters long and 250 meters wide, together with four large letters
"APEC" sparkling brilliantly between the Huangpu Park and the
Astronomical Observatory.

The third part was equally wonderful. After fleeting 300
meters long over the water surface, a tiny bit of sparkling
suddenly is to spring onto the Multi-national Buildings, racing
along them at the speed of 60 meters per second and in no time
transformed into a 1000-meter-long dragon. And when it approached
the far end of the Buildings, the "giant dragon" turned its
head and vanished suddenly.

The most extraordinary one of the whole display, however,
was undoubtedly the last chapter "The Pearl Sparkling in the
East". The designer with full imagination had compared the Multi-national
Buildings Assembly with a huge piano and the 23 individual buildings
with its keys. Using a computer-control system, fireworks were
shot above the buildings to the rhythmical musical accompaniment.
After that, a 10-meter-high and 1800-meter-long waterfall fireworks
rushed downwards the Bund and simultaneously 2,001 red lantern-shaped
fireworks filled the sky, symbolizing the 21 APEC member economies
pursuing together a better future. At the same time, the climax
came when fireworks rushed skywards from above all 23 Buildings.

The Shanghai Oriental TV Station, organizer of the display,
stated that the most advanced computer system and multi-media
means had been applied to the staging of the show and that the
newest and most beautiful fireworks in the world had been integrated
into the Chinese traditional fireworks arts. The scale and the
diversity of the fireworks display were unprecedented within
China, prompting the organizer to apply for recognition of the
current fireworks display in the Guinness World Records.

Gibt es in Deutschland villeicht ein ähnliches Feuerwerk
außer dem vom Wolkenkratzer-Festival in Frankfurt?

Hallo Pyros ?
