Over the course of seven decades, a newborn becomes a grandparent and a struggling nation becomes robust. Time passes as dreams evolve.

70-second video showing Zhuhai's evolvement

Truly, history unfolds one page at a time

from wild weeds and fishing ponds to modern metropolis …

muddy pathways to controlled borders …

fishing villages to coastal city …

Transforming from zero to hero …

blazing trails through deluge and devastation.

Bus stops, harbors, checkpoints, for instance,

confirm their stories of momentous change.

Innovation-driven and vibrantly energetic,

Zhuhai is relentlessly forging ahead.

Shallow seas became mulberry fields

as time whirled memories of painstaking efforts.

Starting afresh,

the city has raised many marvelous landmarks

along the hills and sea

to witness the river of time.

Zhuhai's men and women eagerly pursue greatness in

answer to the 70th Anniversary of the Founding of the People's Republic of China.

"I love you, China!" state people who have shaped the city.

What had started long ago is never ending.

We'll step staunchly ahead after 70 years

maintaining the courage to embark on

building a Gateway Hub of the Greater Bay Area, Core City on the west bank of the Pearl River Estuary, and model of high-quality development for the Coastal Economic Belt.

Even the shores are expansive at high tide

as a single sail billows with fair wind.

Standing at the 70th year of dawning,

invincible and indomitable, we salute the past and create the future.
