More than 60 celebrities from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan gathered on friday for an earthquake relief gala in Chengdu, capital of southwestern China's Sichuan Province, to encourage the quake victims.
The website sina.com.cn reported that the gala, entitled "In the Name of Lives", was organized by the quake-hit province to show the spirit of the Chinese to the world.
The appearance of 108 People's Liberation Army soldiers onstage was the gala's first highlight. The audience gave them a standing ovation for their quick and unparalled efforts rescuing the injured and homeless.
The heart-warming stories of rescues and relief efforts moved both the narrators themselves and the audience to tears. Singers sang household songs to show their support for quake victims.
