==Big letter banners (China)== In China, it is common to find large red coloured banners, especially in schools, factories, government institutions and construction sites. Also called da zi bao ({{zh|s=大字报|p=dàzìbào|l=big-character reports}}), these tend to be big and long, usually with red backgrounds and large Chinese characters. They tend to have motivational messages or industrial milestones on them. Historically, these [[big-character poster]]s were used to convey messages during the [[cultural revolution]], but their use changed after the country's liberalization since 1979.<ref>{{cite news |title=Harvard exhibit showcases Chinese posters hidden for 50 years |url=http://www.milforddailynews.com/entertainmentlife/20171119/harvard-exhibit-showcases-chinese-posters-hidden-for-50-years |access-date=4 June 2018 |publisher=Milford Daily News |date=19 November 2017 |archive-date=20 November 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171120214705/http://www.milforddailynews.com/entertainmentlife/20171119/harvard-exhibit-showcases-chinese-posters-hidden-for-50-years |url-status=live }}</ref>
