CCTV website news: "China Heart Hong Kong Love" Today we will meet a Hong Kong media person Chen Beier . Last year, she came to the mainland to shoot a documentary "Infinite Road" that reflected the theme of the country's fight against poverty. . In the film, she ziplines, climbs ladders, and goes deep into areas that were once deeply impoverished, truly demonstrating the tremendous changes brought about by poverty alleviation work. She was also elected as the "Moving China Person of the Year 2021", but she said that during the filming, she was the one who was moved. Next, let’s walk into Chen Beier’s story together.
Host of Hong Kong Television Broadcasting Co., Ltd. Chen Beier: I am Chen Beier, a native of Hong Kong, China, a media person, and the host of "Infinite Road". We conducted in-depth visits to more than a dozen areas that were once extremely poor, to see how their lives had changed before and now. For example, relocation is certainly the most classic example. The entire village of Cliff Village we went to lives on a high mountain, and they have to climb the 2,556-step ladder every day when they go out. In the city, I can’t bear to climb ten flights of stairs. This is the truth. I am very grateful to have a certain Sarabo, a cliff flyer, accompanying me. When I was almost dying, he said to me, sister, look at how beautiful the scenery is now. When I heard this sentence, I thought you were crazy. You wanted me to enjoy the scenery. How could I be in the mood to enjoy the scenery?
But after I returned to Hong Kong, I found his words to be very wise and inspiring. Our village friends, no matter how difficult the road is, they can still have an appreciative attitude and a very positive attitude. After climbing the ladder the next day, I went to his new resettlement house. I could feel that joy only by experiencing it myself.
I think the current villagers are very confident about their current life and their future life. Their sincere joy and confidence, I think can be seen in their eyes and smiles in the camera. I feel that if I really have the ability to move people, it is because I was moved first.
In 1997, when I was 18 years old, I chose the Department of Communication Journalism. Then, after graduation, I chose to return to Hong Kong and my home. As a media person in Hong Kong, through some of the stories of the people I interview, we can all know the pace of development of the entire city around us. Over the past 25 years, I think Hong Kong people will really have more opportunities to learn more about the development of the country. How to integrate the uniqueness of Hong Kong into the development of the entire country can be done together step by step.
On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to , I hope that Hong Kong's economic development will become more and more prosperous, and that all walks of life can bloom. As a media person in Hong Kong, China, I hope that I can continue to have the opportunity to serve as a bridge and shoot more good stories about China, so that audiences at home and abroad can know the current development of China.
