On the eve of Chinese President Xi Jinping's arrival in Argentina to attend the upcoming Group of 20 (G20) Summit, Argentine Radio and Television is hosting an event to introduce the new program "Clásicos citados por Xi," the Spanish version of "Xi Jinping’s Classical Quotes," featuring the wise sayings and famous stories quoted by President Xi from favorite ancient classics. 

The video series produced by the China Media Group (CMG) is adapted from the original Chinese version of "Xi Jinping's Classical Quotes," which was aired in October on the science and education channel of China Central Television (CCTV). 

President Xi Jinping is known for his profound love of literature, and his words are always punctuated with wisdom from traditional Chinese culture. The work introduces sentences of wisdom and famous stories most quoted in President Xi's speeches and articles under six topics, such as the cultivation of individual personalities and the construction of honest administration, which greatly show President Xi's deep understanding of traditional Chinese culture as well as his wisdom and thoughts on state governance.

Attendees to the event include Head of Argentina's Federal System of Media and Public Content Hernan Lombardi, CMG's President Shen Haixiong, President of Argentine Radio and Television Miguel Pereira, Chinese Ambassador to Argentina Yang Wanming and Argentine Ambassador to China Diego Ramiro Guelar. 

CMG's President Shen noted that the introduction of the Spanish version on new media is aimed at opening a window for the Spanish audience to see the charm of President Xi and at strengthening the cultural exchange between the Chinese and Argentine people. 

Lombardi and Pereira sent congratulations for the publication of this Spanish video and considered it a milestone in the media communication and cooperation between the two countries. It was also highlighted that the close communication between the media of the two countries is necessary to promote the friendships among the people in these two countries and to enhance their cooperation. 

A ceremony that launches the online publication of the program "Clásicos citados por Xi" will be held at Argentina's Grupo America on November 29.
