CHANGSHA, China, Feb. 10, 2021 /Xinhua=KYODO JBN/--

Sponsored by Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council, organized by

Hunan Broadcasting System, A Worldwide Celebration: Chinese New Year 2021 will

be aired at 19:30 on Lunar New Year's Day (12th Feb.) on Hunan TV. Produced by

Yang Ziyang and his team of Hunan TV, and themed by "worldwide reunion, Chinese

new year", this show is about to send new year greetings to all the overseas

Chinese who share the same origin, no matter where or how far apart they are.

By focusing on hot issues and the voice of China, the Gala tells many China

stories with positive energy. Except for the upgrade on theme, performance and

stage illusion, two sub-venues are also set up in Shantou, Guangdong province

and Longyan, Fujian province, both of which are hometowns of overseas Chinese.

Through these two channels, the overseas Chinese can have a great enjoyment in

their familiar accent and local culture, and share the happiness of Chinese new

year. In the show, host He Jiong tells a moving story of the overseas Chinese

named Liu Danhong, who helped hundreds of Chinese people who were trapped on a

cruise back home during the epidemic. Students studying abroad, as the

representatives of overseas Chinese, also expressed their new year wishes

through online videos.

Moreover, the show also tells the story which embodies the Chinese power and

Chinese soul. Guests are invited to the stage to tell the Chang'e-5 story and

to show the great power of China space work. Long Xianlan and his family

members from Shibadong village, where the targeted poverty alleviation was

first initiated, share their great changes and fruits of poverty alleviation

success.
