KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 28 (Bernama) -- The promo video of Wuhan’s East Lake released at the China International Friendship Cities Conference recently made a stunning appearance and reached 100,000 play counts and thousands of viewers’ comments.
The promo video of Wuhan concentrated the city's 3,500-year-old history into 1,500 characters through the lens of everyday changes while the promo video of the East Lake,  the “green heart” of Wuhan reflects the harmony of human and nature, city and lake.
With the East Lake, Wuhan shines even brighter as a city of bridges, forests and universities. Before the hosting of 2019 Military World Games, Wuhan’s image has once again surprised the world.
The video creation team includes a senior writer and director, Li Sheng who also the writer for the video. He had been touring the East Lake for inspiration since April and after half a year of working and polishing, he finalized the 1,768-character article for the video.
A classical Chinese expert, Shu Bangxin commented that Li’s writings for both the East Lake and the city of Wuhan are classic as he wrote with all his love for the city, a statement from The Management Committee of the East Lake said.
The video has also drawn the attention of Zhang Wen -- granddaughter of Zhou Cangbai who built the East Lake Park -- and daughter of China's famed soprano, Zhou Xiaoyan who sent her congratulations as she feels touched and hearty for Li’s words in the video.
The director and videographer, Song Xiaohu said many valuable scenes are rarely seen as they were shot under special circumstances of weather and timing. Cinema-level equipment were used to shoot and the video is also being produced in English for overseas broadcasting.
