Sina Weibo user Catfox in boots: The Spring Festival is not a spring festival without New Year's Eve.
Sina Weibo user shellyShanshan: I wish the holiday lasted all the way until Jan 15.
Sina Weibo user Shoujindenghuayouyixiao1971: I support not including New Year's Eve as part of the holiday. That way, we could actually get an extra day off.
Sina Weibo user CokeloverXiaoshu: I support from Jan 1 to Jan 3. Any companies that care about its employees would give at least a half day off on New Year's Eve.
