At the 2026 Spring Festival Gala, humanoid robots once again stole the show with their breathtaking performances. Gone are the days of their awkward debut a year prior, when they required 'stage escorts' and clumsily stumbled through a Yangge (a traditional Chinese folk dance). Now, these robots are not only capable of cracking jokes and delivering comedic skits but have also mastered an array of impressive skills, including swordplay, breakdancing, nunchaku routines, aerial flips, and even imitating the fluid movements of drunken boxing. Their motions are now more vibrant and expressive, and their interactions with humans have become incredibly natural and seamless. Adding to the spectacle, a hyper-realistic bionic robot named 'Cai Ming' managed to deceive many a discerning eye with its uncanny resemblance to a human performer.
