關(guān)于春晚，你可能不知道的其他趣料：

The first CCTV Spring Festival Gala was live broadcast via television on February 12, 1983. However, not all Chinese people owned a TV set then or had a chance to watch the show at home. The annual output of televisions was only 6.84 million and nearly 80 percent of families did not possess their own TV set, according to a Beijing Daily report.

第一屆央視春晚于1983年2月12日通過電視直播。然而，當(dāng)時在中國并不是人人都有電視機(jī)，或者能夠在家里看春晚。據(jù)《北京日報》報道，當(dāng)時電視年產(chǎn)量僅為684萬臺，近80%的家庭沒有自己的電視機(jī)。

In 1983, the director of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala set four telephones backstage so viewers could ask the actors to perform the requested items. As the on-demand calls were so popular, the lines would literally be overheated, prompting staff members to stand by with a fire extinguisher.

1983年，央視春晚導(dǎo)演在后臺設(shè)置了四部電話，這樣觀眾就可以要求演員表演指定節(jié)目。由于點(diǎn)播電話大受歡迎，電話線路會過熱，工作人員不得不拿著滅火器站在一旁。

The gala traditionally concludes with the song "Can't Forget Tonight". The song has been performed for 23 times over the past 36 years. Its original performer Li Guyi has also held a record of singing the most songs during a gala. In 1983, she sang a medley of seven songs.

傳統(tǒng)上，春晚以歌曲《難忘今宵》結(jié)尾。在過去的36年里，這首歌已經(jīng)表演過23次?！峨y忘今宵》的原唱李谷一也保持著在一場春晚上演唱最多歌曲的紀(jì)錄。1983年，她演唱了七首歌的歌曲集錦。

Cheung Ming-man was the first singer from Hong Kong to perform at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. He sang a patriotic song, "My Chinese Heart," in 1984 and won millions of hearts, especially those who were living abroad. Cheung emerged as a household name in China as a result of his performance.

張明敏是第一位在央視春晚上表演的香港歌手。1984年，他演唱了一首愛國歌曲《我的中國心》，贏得了無數(shù)人的喜愛，尤其是那些居住在海外的華人。這次表演讓張明敏在中國變得家喻戶曉。

The longest running performance in the history of the gala is called Time. In 2016, Yang Caiqi performed on stage for four hours until the New Year's bell rang.

春晚歷史上持續(xù)時間最長的節(jié)目是《時間舞者》。2016年，楊彩旗在舞臺上表演了四個小時，直到新年的鐘聲響起。

The live telecast of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala has gained high ratings in the past years. In 2012, the Guinness World Records recognized CCTV Spring Festival Gala as the Most Watched National Network TV Broadcast.

在過去幾年里，央視春晚的電視直播收視率頗高。2012年，《吉尼斯世界紀(jì)錄大全》將中央電視臺春節(jié)聯(lián)歡晚會列為收看人數(shù)最多的全國電視廣播節(jié)目。

In 2016, a Japanese website Niconico, featuring real time comments "Bullet Screens", live broadcasted the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time. After the broadcasting, about 88 percent of users cast a favorable vote.
