Delicacies and Natural Beauties of Fuling: Chongqing Rural Beauty Show

Chongqing - The trend-making variety TV show Chongqing Rural Beauty Show has moved on to its fourth episode in southeast Chongqing's Fuling District. As one of CQTV's primetime programs, the show was aired at 9:20 p.m. on Dec 12, with anchorman Huang Jiadi, actress Ma Xiaoyuan, and international friend Mr. Ben teaming up to explore the natural beauties and local delicacies of Fuling.

Anchorman Huang Jiadi (R-2), International experiencer Mr. Ben (R-1), actress Ma Xiaoyuan (L-1) and some other guests of the show wave hello to the camera.

In this episode, the trio experiencers went deep into the Wuling Mountain Rift Valleys, ate hot pickled mustard tubers in Western styles, encountered crazy wild bees when gathering nectar, and found a four-hundred-year-old longan tree in the woods. Sounds thrilling? Well, there's more.

The local Fuling people who have been living here for generations look up to the awe-invoking beauties of mother nature. They try to protect and live in harmony with the surrounding rivers and mountains which have been the major source of nutrients for all forms of life feeding on the land.

Anchorman Huang Jiadi serves hot pickled mustard tubers to international experiencer Mr. Ben and actress Ma Xiaoyuan.

The new "Two Mountains" development philosophy, which stresses that lush mountains and lucid waters are assets just as invaluable as gold and silver mines, introduced by President Xi Jinping fits amazingly well with the local people's long-standing mentality when it comes to environmental protection.

It was for this reason that the latest episode of the Chongqing Rural Beauty Show decided to film this specific theme in the model ecological district of Fuling.

There are also three candidate spokespersons for the show joining this episode to battle for the final honor of being chosen as Fuling's ambassador for Chongqing Rural Beauty Show. Liu Run and Song Linfeng teamed up as "Damu Brothers" while Wang Dengrong assumed the title of "Longan Queen."

The especially articulate "Damu Brothers" used distinctive local delicacies and flavored foods to link the poor remote villages with the main urban area; while the down-to-earth "Longan Queen" insisted on the ecological economy to safeguard the lucid waters and lush mountains for the next generation.
