In two weeks, the recording, plane photography and interview of 100 singers were completed, and all post-production was completed in six days. This documentary only took more than 7,000 minutes, and more than 200 staff members worked hard and sweated for its birth. In the process of creation, almost every participant has a touching story. In this team, there are no stars, no big names, only Olympic contestants, all of whom give up fame and fortune, make selfless contributions to the Olympics, and have no regrets. Many singers took the initiative to sign up after hearing about this activity, and some even turned off Shang Yan and made a special trip to Beijing to participate in the recording at their own expense. In their work, their pious attitude towards the Olympic Games touched and inspired the people on the scene. Minister Zhao Dongming said emotionally that the creation of the song "Welcome to Beijing" shows the positive attitude and sincere feelings of China musicians who warmly welcome friends from all over the world to Beijing to participate in the Olympic Games. They run outside the Olympic Games in their own way and interpret the Olympic spirit in a unique way. Thanks to the musicians for their support of the Beijing Olympic Games. At the same time, Minister Zhao also hopes that the general public can download the ringtone of "Welcome to Beijing" through the wireless music platform of China Mobile, and cheer for the Olympic Games with music.
"Welcome to Beijing" Music TV and music recording are synchronized. At the launching ceremony, Kong Fanzhi, director of Beijing Cultural Relics Bureau, also introduced the filming process of Welcome to Beijing. Welcome to Beijing not only uses folk songs in music, but also integrates many iconic landscapes of Beijing into MTV, making it rich in Beijing characteristics. The choice of scenery not only reflects the face of new Beijing, but also shows the long history of Beijing and even China. From the Olympic venues such as Bird's Nest and Water Cube to the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Great Wall and other places of interest, from the National Grand Theatre, the T3 terminal of the Capital Airport to the unique quadrangles in Beijing. A number of newly renovated cultural relics also made their debut in this MTV, expressing their welcome to people all over the world with this special courtesy. Kong Fanzhi hopes to let more people know about Beijing's history and culture and feel the charm of China's traditional culture through MTV Welcome to Beijing.
