Why do we have to cut the ribbon for the opening of a business?

There is a legend that ribbon cutting originated in Western Europe. In ancient times, the shipbuilding industry in Western Europe was relatively developed, and the launching of new ships often attracted thousands of spectators. In order to prevent accidents caused by the crowd rushing towards the new ship, the host set up a "defense line" with ropes at a distance from the hull before the new ship was launched. Once the new ship launching ceremony is ready, the host will cut the rope for the audience to watch. Later the ropes were changed to ribbons. People gave it the name "ribbon cutting".
