Mr Cao said, "I have never seen such a beautiful show, especially the first program, "The Five Millennia Begin". I was so excited as the curtain was opened and I saw the higher beings descending to the earth to save sentient beings. The scene is so beautiful and spectacular.
Mr. Cao said, "It is definitely worth watching, definitely a worthwhile trip, the beautiful costumes, the backdrops are like in heaven. The dancing is excellent as well, every program is excellent."
