In a People’s Daily Online studio, he held a video talk with residents of Chixi village, Ningde city, southeast China’s Fujian Province. On January 25, 2019, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held a group study session on the all-media era and integrated media development at People’s Daily Online.
