I’ve just found out that the fact is, Chinese lanterns  also keeps deep meaning behind. In an article I read, Chinese lantern is a symbol of hope of a better life, happiness and success.

Based on Chinese Traditional culture, the color red will bring good fortune and will swap away the evil spirits. No wonder red paper lanterns are often seen in celebratory events.
