Legend has it that when Ganlong visited the south of the Yangtze River, he got lost in the jungle. The waiter looked everywhere, but they couldn't find a way out. Feeling anxious, a wild animal suddenly appeared, took them to a temple, and then disappeared. When they arrived at the temple, the attendants found a way out. After returning to Beijing, in order to thank the animal, Ganlong asked his entourage to draw it. Because it looks like a lion, but it has horns, and I don't know how to call it, so it is called "Ruishi", which is a symbol of its longevity and good luck. The name "Ruishi" was used until the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Until the "May 3rd Massacre" in Jinan in the 17th year of the Republic of China, there was an anti-British and anti-Japanese upsurge in the whole country. At this time, there are also college students marching in Guangdong. On June 23, the Indians stationed in Guangzhou killed the students in the demonstration, which caused protests from all Cantonese people. Later, because "Rui" and "Sleep" have the same pronunciation in Cantonese, a slogan was put forward: "Without a sleeping lion, Rui lion wakes up". Later, Ruishi was renamed "Awakening the Lion", which meant that Cantonese people had awakened and hoped that China people would no longer be bullied by foreigners. So today's Guangdong Lion Dance Troupe is called "Lion Dance Troupe".

This is what my father said. Why is it called lion awakening?
