On August 7, 2024, the panda reporters from Zhang Qian’s team of Chengdu Radio and Television Station flew from Chengdu to Dubai. The 5-night and 6-day cultural exchange trip in Tianfu has left precious footprints on the path of growth.
Talking to the World, Chengdu
At the Chinese Consulate General in Dubai, Vice Consul General Uncle Liu Zhengjie and other staff members told many stories and patiently answered questions from panda reporters. The children warmly invited diplomats, uncles and aunts, to take a walk on the streets of Chengdu and experience the diverse scenery of the land of abundance.
Sharing and win-win on the tip of the tongue
Whether it’s the dazzling array of Sichuan cuisine in supermarkets or the packed Xiaolongkan hotpot, the cultural dissemination represented by food has left a deep impression on panda journalists. Here, among the top ten best-selling products, Sichuan made Douban, Fanswept Guang, Double Pepper Sauce, and Pickles occupy four seats.
Reading ten thousand books, traveling ten thousand miles
At the ancient city of Jumeirah and Dubai MALL, the panda reporters brought gifts such as Chengdu panda dolls and Shu embroidery, and met many foreign friends who love China.
At the same time, they also conducted panda patting flash mobs at landmark attractions such as the Future Museum and the Presidential Palace, gaining friendships from around the world and a new understanding of the mission of spreading Tianfu culture.
