Introduction to entry:
The documentary "Witness Friendship" revolves around the theme of China and Hungary's joint fight against the pandemic, and explores the true friendship of the two countries supporting each other in the pandemic, and sharing the same heart. We have formulated a series of interview plans to conduct follow-up interviews with representatives of the politics, medical, business, overseas Chinese, overseas students, and tourists of China and Hungary during the pandemic. The documentary presents the following two aspects: the achievements of China and Hungary in the joint fight against the pandemic; the sharing of China's anti-pandemic experience to strengthen bilateral ties, and the exchange and evaluation of China's remarkable achievements and successful experience in fighting the pandemic. At the same time, the Chinese government provided timely help and offered cooperation to the international community, and provided pandemic prevention materials and medical technical support to many countries. This has won applause from many governments and moved many ordinary people. The program has been widely reported and praised in the mainstream media of China and Hungary. Among them, People's Daily Online-International Channel pointed out in the report on May 27, 2020 that the feature film "Witness of Friendship-China and Hungary Join Hands to Fight the Pandemic" presents the moving scene of two countries caring for and helping each other amid the pandemic, illustrating the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind."
