The on-site "Salute to the Heart of Overseas Chinese" National Overseas Chinese Calligraphy Exhibition also attracted the attention of many audiences. As an important link between overseas Chinese and their relatives in China, overseas Chinese carry rich historical culture and feelings of family and country. The exhibition vividly demonstrates the unique charm of overseas Chinese culture and promotes the spirit of overseas Chinese through three sections: the original of overseas Chinese, the inscriptions of contemporary masters and the content of overseas Chinese written by teenagers. The works in the exhibition not only show the exhibitors' deep understanding of the culture of overseas Chinese, but also use traditional Chinese art forms to bring overseas Chinese to life, show their spiritual connotation and value of the times, and imperceptibly educate and guide the majority of young people to cherish the greatness of the country, write for the people, and express their nostalgia for the people.
