Led by renowned wushu artists Donnie Yen and Wu Jing, "Wushu Performance: Heroes of Heaven And Earth" wowed this year's gala audience by placing a natural landscape as the background of the performance through augmented reality (AR) technology.

Wushu is a revered part of Chinese culture with many styles listed as national intangible cultural heritage. Last year, Taijiquan, a form of wushu, was listed as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage.
