Shanghai’s Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street was buzzing with excitement as “Si Shengsheng,” the delightful mascot of the 2025 CMG Spring Festival Gala, made its grand debut during a Spring Festival-themed fair on Saturday.
The charming snake mascot captivated visitors with its endearing appearance and rich symbolism. Adorned with a bat pattern on its forehead—a traditional sign of good fortune—and a “longevity” knot at the tip of its tail, “Si Shengsheng” embodies blessings and well-wishes for the new year.
The event also featured an array of cultural and creative products celebrating the Chinese New Year, adding to the festive atmosphere and offering a vibrant showcase of tradition and innovation.
As the Spring Festival approaches, “Si Shengsheng” is set to become a beloved symbol of joy and prosperity, spreading happiness to residents and visitors alike.
