"Actually, on this road, there are really too many stories about our China, which are worth filming and should be filmed. This is also an endless road."

  Still with a sincere and friendly look, wearing casual yet fashionable clothes, Hong Kong TVB host Chen Beier, who has been filming in the mainland, was a guest on the "Bay Area Youth Talk" column of Chinanews.com's Greater Bay Area Channel on the 30th.

During the live broadcast, she shared the stories behind the scenes of the documentary "The Road to Infinite", and talked about many touching details.

  The media person who has a lot of audience relationship revealed that the sequel of "Infinite Road" is about to start shooting, and a show about the Greater Bay Area is also on the way.

  "Infinity Road" is not just a show

  The original intention is to convey the truth to the audience

  The "Infinity Road" echoed "infinity", and received praise from the mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and overseas. "Sincere", "moved" and "recognized the development of the country" are the most frequent messages from viewers at home and abroad.

  This team of only 5 people went deep into 14 once deeply impoverished areas in 6 provinces in the mainland in just 3 months, and produced 12 episodes.

Everyone along the way will take out their mobile phones when they see a place worth taking pictures, and they will take the initiative to chat when they see potential interviewees.

With perseverance and persistence, seeing people and scenery along the way, have these real and vivid character stories.

  In fact, it is "to see the big from the small", Chen Beier said, it is every point, every character and story that stitches together the blueprint of the economy and society.

  "For myself, this is not just a show." Chen Beier admitted that filming "The Endless Road" is even more of a mission. During the filming, I am learning every day.

The support of the audience is a great encouragement to myself. "It also pushes us to be more attentive and work harder to do a good job in each of our future programs."

  Chinese people are playing a great character

  Encourage Hong Kong viewers to come to the mainland

  "Everyone we interviewed represents a Chinese character, which is amazing!"

  In Chen Beier's view, whether it is a certain Labo who is not afraid of hardships and never give up, the village doctor who respects and promises to go on the zipline on the Nu River, or the young Ganzi youth who spontaneously become an Internet celebrity to speak for their hometown, and who lead the way. A woman from the Wa ethnic group who became rich by growing coffee in the village showed her the great spirit of the Chinese people.

  Last year, the country announced a comprehensive victory in poverty alleviation, 10 years earlier than the United Nations Sustainable Development Plan.

How is it done?

Why can it be done?

Chen Beier said frankly that the team went to the mainland with a blank mentality to report on the poverty alleviation work. The personal experience and what she saw and heard over the past few months made her firmly believe that more audiences and friends in Hong Kong and at home and abroad should know about it. The development of the country is now changing.

  After the program was broadcast, many Hong Kong viewers left messages on Chen Beier's social platform, saying that through the program, they learned more about how the results of the poverty alleviation work were implemented in every villager, and they became more curious about the mainland.

Chen Beier encouraged them to come to the mainland to experience and experience for themselves, communicate more and make more friends.

  Chen Beier also mentioned that many viewers were interested in Yunnan coffee, Hainan organic tea, Rongan kumquat, etc. introduced in the program, and asked where they could buy them and how they could support them.

"I think through the program, I can introduce it to my audience and friends in Hong Kong, and everyone can give more support. Through consumption, poverty alleviation, and more support for our villagers and friends, I think this is also very interesting."

  Hope to continue as a "bridge"

  Want to go to more places in the mainland

  Bridge is a key word repeatedly mentioned by Belle Chen, which is her role in promoting mutual understanding between Hong Kong and the mainland.

She revealed that the sister chapter of "Infinite Road" will start in April, and will go to more places than the first one, and there are some places she has never been to, and she is looking forward to it.

  "I have also been filming a show, which is to go to different places in the Greater Bay Area to see how Hong Kong has integrated into the development of the country and what contributions Hong Kong can make. It can also let Hong Kong people know that after the handover, the mainland has developed rapidly. This is so good, in fact, there are many opportunities for Hong Kong."
