Under the night, the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, located on the edge of Victoria Harbour, shines brightly. Before the reception began, the Hong Kong and Guangdong Foshan Dragon and Lion teams performed together to celebrate the Chinese New Year. The Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra Youth Orchestra performed an impassioned music ensemble, and the Hong Kong Liaison Office, the National Security Office, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Office, the People's Liberation Army stationed in Hong Kong, as well as students from Hong Kong Peiqiao Middle School and representatives of Hong Kong athletes from the Asian Games Hong Kong team sang "The Bay Area is Hometown" with deep emotions, creating a very lively atmosphere on site. At 18:30, the Chinese New Year reception officially began. All the guests on site stood in awe, facing the five-star red flag on the screen of the podium, and sang the national anthem of the People's Republic of China. Accompanied by the opening film "Raising Eyes," "Rabbit," and "Dragon," the highlights of the Hong Kong Year of the Rabbit are presented. Zheng Yanxiong and Li Jiachao delivered speeches respectively. Firstly, Zheng Yanxiong, on behalf of the Liaison Office of the Central Government in Hong Kong, extended New Year's greetings and sincere greetings to the on-site guests and 7.5 million Hong Kong citizens, and delivered a New Year's speech titled "Praising the Descendants of the Pearl of the East and Blessing the Dragon". Zheng Yanxiong reviewed that in 2023, under the strong leadership and support of the central government, Hong Kong seized opportunities and created new glory with the courage and good work of Chief Executive Li Jiachao and the SAR governance team. Hong Kong has ushered in the long-awaited return to normalcy and comprehensive customs clearance, welcomed the "rabbit" spirit of the Year of the Rabbit, welcomed the smooth transition of the 7th District Council under the new electoral system, and welcomed the prosperous development of the economy and finances. These important changes signify that Hong Kong has completely bid farewell to the years of confusion, loss, and confusion, and ushered in a new chapter of poetry in the heart and distant vision in the eyes. Zheng Yanxiong stated that there are three blessings related to "dragons" to be sent to Hong Kong and the general public. May Hong Kong's dragons and phoenixes dance, embrace the blessings of change, and embrace the rise of development. In the new year, Hong Kong should firmly move forward around aligning with its national development strategy and conducting extensive international cooperation, with less anxiety and doubt, more confidence and determination, less conservatism and more reform and innovation, less bizarre and fallacious statements, and more positive forces. As long as soil accumulates and good deeds accumulate, we can promote the transformation from quantitative to qualitative, and promote the iterative development of the "three major international centers", The world's "variables" will eventually bring a "number" for everyone in Hong Kong. May Hong Kong's dragons and phoenixes bring blessings of peace and welcome the prosperity of all industries. In the new year, we should not forget to "consolidate governance and maintain prosperity", nor to "promote governance through prosperity", which should become our consensus, resonance, and shared responsibility. Adhering to the principle of "one country, two systems", upholding the rule of law, vitality, and diversity in Hong Kong, we aim to provide entrepreneurs with dreams to pursue, workers with work to do, investors with profits, collaborators with opportunities to seek, and creators with great potential. Hong Kong is bound to enter a new stage where the charm of the Pearl of the East bursts forth. May the spirit of Hong Kong's dragon horse be brought to life
