Move over, Frosty—Harbin is turning snowman-building into a global spectacle! ❄️ To hype up the 9th Asian Winter Games (AWG), CGTN launched a viral online challenge inviting everyone from Tokyo to Toronto to craft their chilliest snow sculptures and share the frosty fun. The response? *Ice-ceptional!* Thousands joined, proving winter spirit knows no borders.
From Screens to Snow: The Live Showdown
On February 11, the action shifts to Harbin’s Sun Island, where snowball-throwers, winter sports stars, and international media will compete in a real-life snowman-building clash. Think ‘Iron Chef’ but with carrot noses and top hats 🥕🎩. The goal? To spark global excitement for the AWG—a mega-event uniting athletes across Asia every four years.
Why Snowmen? ❄️⏳
‘Building snowmen is playful, inclusive, and bridges cultures,’ says Lin Wei, a Beijing-based sports commentator. ‘It’s a creative way to showcase Harbin’s winter magic while celebrating teamwork—the heart of the Games.’
With the AWG opening ceremony just months away, this frosty frenzy is warming hearts worldwide. Tag us in your snow pics using #HarbinSnowChallenge—you might just go viral! 📸✨
