The Chen Bochui International Children's Literature Award, just recently presented at the Baoshan Folk Art Museum, is one of the literary awards with the longest running time and the most award-winning writers in China. Michael Moborg, the winner of this year's Writers Award, the author of "War Horse" and the famous British writer, promised to "write a book set in China", adding a fairy tale color to the Cultural Exchange between China and the Uk. The winner of the Special Contribution Award, Mr. Shengye, took the stage in a wheelchair to receive the award, which caused the audience to warmly applaud and pay tribute. The award-winning picture book "Pandemic" was recommended by Professor Zhang Wenhong, and readers can truly feel the light of hope that "isolation and kindness and mutual assistance have won the victory" from the book, and calm the anxiety under the epidemic.

In recent years, Baoshan's cultural activities have been repeatedly innovated, and "literature and art for the people" is an echo of history and a proposition of the times. The literary and artistic workers in Baoshan understand that everyone's "highlight moment" can bloom in the spotlight of the stage or blossom and bear fruit in the field. The original Shanghainese drama "Woman Picking the Mountain" from Baoshan has also continued to improve and grow in the past five years. The troupe led by huawen, the lead actor, not only won 18 important awards including the "Five One Project" award and the Wenhua Award, but also with the care and support of leaders at all levels, they braved the scorching heat to create and shoot original Shanghai opera films, and won the Best Opera Film Award of the Golden Rooster Award of Chinese Film in one fell swoop, achieving a "breakthrough of zero" in Shanghai local drama.
