Following an array of fireworks, a young teenage Chinese boy played the trumpet to his countries national anthem. As the young boy played the trumpet more than 4,000 performers gathering under the podium began to play the magic effects of more than 4,000 LED light equipped trees. Vice Director of the Gala, Zhao Dongming called the performance a “Light Cube” referring to the well-known Olympic architecture “Water Cube” or the National Aquatics Center. The building, equipped with LED lights, can put on various colors at night. The performers of the “light cube” displayed a rolling effect of the 60 years from 1949, when the People’s Republic of china was founded, to 2009. Fireworks meanwhile again shot up and exploded in the night sky, creating the Arabic numeral of 60 which symbolized their birthday. Seconds later a fireworks-armed curtain, standing opposite to the Tain’anmen Rostrum, was ignited and began to explode. The exploding fireworks on the curtain 90 meters wide and 25 meters high up created the sun, river, waterfall and mountains, representing the immense land of China.
