The Year of the snake is approaching. 

蛟龙去，灵蛇来。

the China Media Group's 2025 Spring Festival Gala released the official mascot image "Si Sheng", the overall shape of the reference to the Oracle bone "巳" character, silly and rich in ancient meaning.

中央广播电视总台《2025年春节联欢晚会》2日发布官方吉祥物形象“巳（sì）升升”，整体造型参考甲骨文中的“巳”字，憨态可掬又富有古意。

Let's have a look!

一起来看吧！
