About Innovation:
To better narrate Fujian’s and China’s stories, the program adopts a micro-documentary approach, inviting perspectives from China Arab TV hosts, influencers, and cultural ambassadors. Through Fujian’s geographic and cultural arteries, it engages audiences in a cross-temporal dialogue, revealing how the landscape nurtured luminaries and culture. More than a geographical tour, it’s a spiritual exploration. The show innovates with an AI avatar of China Arab TV host AMEEN (Fang Haoming), structuring content around five themes: Fu·Culture, Fu·Oceans, Fu·Land, Fu·Heritage and Fu·Flavors. This framework activates Fujian’s “blessing” (Fu) resources, promoting its culture to global audiences.
