As Ning Wanglu, former director of the competition enforcement Bureau of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, put it, love and empathy are the best starting points to tell a good China story.

The only way to communicate with each other is through heart and soul. Lin Tianliang, the chief representative of Want Want Group in Beijing, also hopes that culture and art can arouse the national awakening of people on both sides of the Straits to "love the countryside", "love China" and "love Chinese culture".

Yanping said:"I am destined for double happiness."
