After Chinese Poetry Conference and Letters Alive became pretty popular in China, a new show focusing on national treasures also became popular. It showed Chinese viewers’ growing interest in the traditional culture.
As soon as National Treasure was shown on TV, it quickly became one of the most popular TV shows in China. “Fun”, “Creative” and “Informative (增进知识的)” were the most widely-used words to describe the show on the Internet.
The show mainly introduced the history and stories of some national treasures which were kept in nine key museums in China. To some viewers’ surprise, they found some famous actors in every episode (一集) of the show, which made them feel more interested. At the end of the show, the nine most valuable treasures would be chosen by viewers to take part in an exhibition at the Palace Museum in Beijing to celebrate the 600th anniversary (周年纪念日) of the Forbidden City.
In the first episode of National Treasure, the Palace Museum showed three treasures: Stone Drum, The Panoramic Painting of Rivers and Mountains by Wang Ximeng and Large Vase with Variegated Glazes (斑釉大花瓶). Famous actors Wang Kai, Li Chen and Tony Leung Ka-fai played roles of national treasure keepers along with other actors. They introduced the treasures and told viewers stories about these treasures.
