French photographer Jeremy Walter Grinan, a 15-year resident of South China's Hainan province, found the Hongshan culture expedition captivating.

He argued that delving deep into ancient history could shift the focus from specific cultures like Chinese, Greek or Egyptian to a broader perspective of shared human history. At such distant time periods, people find it easier to relate because the narrative transcends modern cultural divisions — it becomes less about national comparisons and more about our common origins as humankind.

Kazakh student Ansar Kubenbayev from the University of International Business and Economics concurred: "When you look at some ancient history or cultural aspects, you can find some similarities between your culture and the ancient culture of every country. And it breaks the cultural walls between countries, making it a friendlier approach."

Saavedra expressed his passion for producing content about various aspects of China, including its culture, history, food, travel and technology.

He emphasized using visuals like artifacts, images, and short videos to make the content more engaging.

The more casual and relatable the approach was, he noted, the more audiences would enjoy it.
