National Day interviews Views on Chinese flair

Oct 2

CCTV's National Day street-interview feature asks residents, tourists and a Turkmen student what 'Chinese flair' means to them. They discuss Hanfu, ancient architecture, travel along the Hexi Corridor, opera, landscape painting, restrained family affection, poetry, cultural accessories abroad and continuity with earlier generations. Cai Bei connects personal contribution with national development, and participants end with wishes for cultural continuity and national prosperity. These are individual cultural and patriotic opinions; the programme presents no representative polling result.
