Mainland Entrepreneurs Feel Proud of Viewing the Charm and Highly Recommend Everyone to Watch it
Ms. Li, a mainland entrepreneur, was very excited following watching the Shen Yun performance that night with her friends. “It is so rare to see such a performance here (in the United States).

The effect of the entire stage and the professionalism of all the actors were amazing.” It made me feel it was so worthwhile!” Ms. Li said, “I was also surprised to find that the audience was mostly white and of very high quality. It was obvious that they were intoxicated by the performance.”
Ms. Li was a successful entrepreneur in mainland China and later went to a famous university in the United States to study abroad. She said: “What touches me the most is that Shen Yun artists can collect so many materials, including Jigong and Journey to the West, and extol many good values. These things reflect China’s traditional values and culture. I feel proud and happy.”
Shen Yun artists interpret traditional values through music and Chinese classical dance. Ms. Li sincerely admires this, “This kind of value is for all people – no matter where you are overseas or in the country, upholding such a value of truth, kindness and beauty It’s all very important.”
Thinking that Shen Yun cannot be performed in China so far, she said: “Especially the compatriots living in China, they have so little information that they cannot see the other side of many things.

The birds in the sky don’t know that the sky is so blue and so high, and they can’t see the diversity of things; we should sympathize with their current environment.”
She feels that if Chinese people have the opportunity to see Shen Yun, it will help them open their horizons and “give them more opportunities to see a broader world and different values. There are also people who may have so many different ways of living. This is really Very important.”
Ms. Li said that the performance gave her “a lot of motivation” and “very happy”. “I am very grateful to my professor for recommending me to watch (Shen Yun). I think it is worth it. I feel very lucky to have bought a ticket tonight. I highly recommend everyone to come and watch it.”
