Huang Haifeng, director of the publicity department of Hangzhou, said he hopes the competition will promote Hangzhou's new image to the world.

He encouraged short video creators to focus on the Games, which he described will be a "splendid event with Chinese characteristics, Zhejiang style, and Hangzhou feel."
