One of the highlights in the gala was the magic act presented by French twins.

Two brothers, Tony and Jordan, brought their Wonder Brothers show to the audience. As soon as they finished their performance, thunderous applause broke out.

The French digital magician duo first gained international recognition after appearing on season 12 of the TV show America's Got Talent. What makes them unique is that they are identical twins.

They love to combine technology and magic, producing unbelievable effects. Their magic tricks are rich, visual, engaging and incredibly entertaining. The audience can barely follow what is going on.

Extensive and profound, Chinese culture has a long history. At the gala, children come up with their own ways to pay tribute to the fine cultural traditions of China. A girl of the Yi ethnic group named Jihao Youguo from Daliangshan in Southwest China’s Sichuan province also sung a patriotic song, How Beautiful Is the National Flag, onstage.

According to her, it was her wish to sing songs on a bigger stage. She hoped her voice could reach more families and bring happiness to more people. Now, her dream has come true.

The gala was produced by the China Media Group, which was officially inaugurated on April 19 this year after a combination of China Central Television (CCTV), China Global Television Network (CGTN), China National Radio (CNR) and China Radio International (CRI).
