One thing I hate about China is its favorite color: red. Why do they use this shocking color so much and so often, without feeling uncomfortable?

The color of blood represents revolution, so they love it so much. ^·^

[Rock]

Yes, even in a wedding. Red wedding.

[Iris Wu]

Yeah, even in stock markets!
How do you translate this statement into Chinese?
“Taiwan (or China) Stock Market Expected To Open In The Red”?

[Michael-liu]

Oh....Iris, you set me up....haha.

I know what you mean now. I don't have to read the article to get your point.

In western world, they use red color to represent downfall in stock market, which is the opposite in Taiwan.

So the title can be translated into "台股預期開盤將一片慘綠(血流成河)"

Haha! You took the bait and got yourself to bite the hook!
But the new translation is excellent!

[Michael-liu]

Since red is the color of blood, so it makes sense that in western culture red indicates misfortune.

So, this makes me wonder why in Chinese culture red is the symbol of fortune. I am curious its orgin in history and the story behind it.
