Cities serve as windows into human civilization, key spatial nodes for national communication, and carriers and repositories of rich and colorful Chinese stories. How to tell cities' stories well, and thus tell China's stories well? In Shandong Province, documentaries and animations have been used to break cultural barriers and open new horizons in city-focused international communication.

Dongying, where the Yellow River empties into the Bohai Sea, is a young city famous for its Shengli Oilfield, the second largest of its kind in China. The Shandong Radio and Television Station has launched the documentary Life at the Yellow River Delta, narrating the survival stories of endangered species like the Oriental white stork, showcasing the breathtaking natural beauty of Dongying and illustrating the ecological wisdom inherent in the Yellow River estuary.
