Wuxi starts micro-video contest for 40th anniversary of reform and opening-up

A micro-video contest run by Wuxi in celebration of the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up is ready to excite netizens over the next two months.

The contest, sponsored by Wuxi authorities in charge of publicity and internet information, and organized by Wuxi Radio and TV Station, was launched at the station on July 18.

All micro-video works reflecting achievements made during the 40 years since reform and opening-up are welcomed from social organizations, institutions or individuals, the only restriction being that they should correctly guide public opinion with core socialist values, and truly display the civil life and social changes over the years.

The contest is accompanied by a picture collecting activity that involves collecting old or new photos from citizens reflecting the specific changes brought by the reform and opening-up in the lives of ordinary people and families.
