On December 23, the executives and old staff of Sanpower Group (Sanpower) and all its industrial platforms got together with guests from all circles for Sanpower 2016 Christmas Gala, to celebrate Sanpower's brilliant achievements in 2016 and look into Sanpower's new prospect in 2017.

Yang Huaizheng, President of Sanpower, first proposed a toast. She reviewed Sanpower's achievements in five sectors ("new finance, new consumption, new health, new technology, new real estate") under the leadership of Chairman Yuan Yafei in 2016, extending heartfelt thanks to all staff of Sanpower. She expected all to keep going to achieve new success in 2017.

The gala, themed "One Heart, New Dream", had four chapters. All programs were produced and directed by the staff of Sanpower and its platforms. These impressive programs featured Sanpower's keywords in 2016, arousing bursts of laugher.

The gala opened with Hisap's Mirror Robot/Christmas Catwoman and Hirealty's dance Rapture. In Chapter 1 Great Prosperity, New Journey, a VCR video reviewed the memorabilia of Sanpower in business transformation. In 2016, Sanpower constantly sped up globalization, achieving remarkable results in domestic and overseas industrial operations! House of Fraser and Hamleys of the UK opened their first stores in China; Brookstone of the US opened 10 stores in five Chinese cities; the telemedicine B2C project of Natalia, Israel in Changzhou went into operation…A series of domestic and overseas M&A projects were under way. Sanpower's ecological business layout featuring the synergetic development of five new industrial sectors (new finance, new consumption, new health, new technology, new real estate) has taken shape.

During the gala, Lashou's dance Very Bang (Cool) and Sanpower's dance medley Dance for You were novel and hot; the Inner Mongolian buddies from Funtalk Telecommunications presented a Morin Khuur and Mongolian dance show, offering a precious blue hada (a piece of silk used as a greeting gift among the Zang and Mongol nationalities) to Chairman Yuan Yafei.

In the Chapter of Chinese Spirit, Global Vision, a VCR video showed Sanpower seeking exchanges and cooperation with developed European and American countries, as well as the countries along the "Belt and Road" in 2016. Hisap's foreign power show, Sanpower's English song duet, HOF's Chinese British-style dance and Guangzhou Jinpeng's band show made the audience feel the increasing globalization of Sanpower.

In the Chapter of Sentient Being, Voice for Love, Jiang Xiaomeng, a member of the All-China Youth Federation and the "Vocal King" for the Youth Olympics from Hirealty presented a sign language show named Grateful Heart. HOF China's peacock dance and Nanjing Cenbest's vigorous dance made the audience feel the beauty of nature and Sanpower's passion for charity.

The gala was also special to Sanpower, because it coincided with the birthday of Yuan Yafei, "father" of Sanpower. Sanpower's platforms across the world sent wishes to Yuan in a video, and Yuan received a special gift-a letter of birthday wishes from Prince William, Duke of Cambridge. In his letter, William sent wishes for the opening of Hamleys and HOF in China, and acclaimed Sanpower's devotion to wildlife protection!

International violin master Charlie Siem presented a solo-Happy Birthday, and performed with Caroline Jaya-Ratnam, a pianist graduating from the University of Cambridge and the Royal Academy of Music, extending holiday greetings to Sanpower.

At last, Yuan delivered an important speech. He reviewed 2016 and looked into 2017. "Sanpower went up to a new big stage in every economic crisis and every economic adjustment. Why? We stood higher, saw farther and thought more than others did, so we walked more steadily. Every financial crisis is a chance for Sanpower to leap," said him. In the face of achieved results, he said, "We did what we were supposed to do in 2016. In the future, we will stick to our principle, stand higher, see farther and think more. I believe we will be on the top of the world soon."

Sanpower 2016 Christmas Gala ended in Love Each Other, a song & dance show by Nanjing Cenbest. The gala was directed by Yue Lei, Senior Vice President of Sanpower, and supported and prepared by the Public Relations and Administration Centre, the Culture and Brand Management Centre, the Chairman Administration Office, the IT & Enterprise Management Centre, Hongtu Property and platforms of Sanpower.
