1978
　1. Dating. For a whole decade before that, young people’s public dating was considered shameful and degenerate. They could only use work as an excuse to carry out underground activities. Love letters always began with the name of a certain comrade and ended with a revolutionary salute. But in this year, love began to separate slightly from class feelings. Lovers walked hand in hand in parks and on the streets. Love finally returned to its original appearance.


In an era when a few foreigners on the street would be watched, the great shook the decades of uniformity and monotony of this great oriental country. The wandering singer Ai Jing recorded this scene in her "Yanfen Street": One day, a big brother with long hair walked through Yanfen Street. His bell-bottom pants were fashionable and special. He got into trouble because of this. He was escorted by the aunties on the street to parade. His pants were torn, his dignity was peeled off, and his expression was unpredictable. 25 years later, we applauded bell-bottom pants.


1979
　　1. The first TV commercial. The Happy Coke commercial was broadcast on CCTV in March.
　　2. Coca-Cola. Coca-Cola re-entered the Chinese market with the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States after the founding of the People's Republic of China.


Tough boy and his buzz cut. In "The Hunt", Ken Takakura used his tough guy image to banish the cream boys (represented by Tang Guoqiang) who filled the Chinese screen. Since then, calls for men have been heard frequently: Mayumi, with her long hair, leather boots, pure appearance and fiery heart, became the dream lover of the first generation of Chinese young men.


The first fashion show. French fashion designer Pierre Cardin personally led 12 French girls to a fashion show at the National Culture Palace in Beijing.


1980
　　1. A man in a white tights. When the Shanghai Ballet School performed in Hunan, the local audience was very surprised to see a young man in a white tights on the stage. In their opinion, this was second only to being completely naked. At the end of the show, an angry cadre broke the silence and suddenly shouted: What does this have to do with China?


2. The McHarris whirlwind. The movie "Zorro" had a record 70 million viewers. But the most popular character this year was Mike Harris, the protagonist of "The Man from Atlantic". It is said that when a certain unit was selecting advanced models, some ballots actually had Mike Harris' name written on them. His Mike mirror can be written into the future history of Chinese clothing, and there is a new swimming style in the swimming pool - the Mike style. This TV series also made a fitness sport popular across the country, that is, Frisbee.


3. The new "Marriage Law" and the one-child policy. The necessary conditions for divorce have been changed to: the relationship between the two parties has indeed broken down and mediation has failed. The Chinese have finally realized the soul of love.

从昆仑以观慨

Isn't it a coincidence that Frisbee suddenly became popular again in 2022? Is there anything really new in this world? There is only reincarnation.
