China Media Group (CMG) on Thursday convened a high-profile dialog in Moscow, bringing together guests to delve into the promising future of China-Russia cooperation.
The event is part of the Chinese state broadcaster's "China in Spring Time: Sharing Opportunities with the World" Global Dialog series.
Representatives from the political, academic, and media sectors of both countries engaged in discussions on topics such as China-Russia economic cooperation, scientific and technological innovation, cultural and people-to-people exchanges, and media collaboration.
The participants emphasized that China-Russia relations are an example of a new type of international relations and relations between neighboring countries and that cooperation and coordination between China and Russia contribute to global peace and stability, with all expressing confidence in the bright prospects for bilateral cooperation.
"I've learned a lot from this dialog, such as how my fellow Russian media workers collaborate with their Chinese partners and how this cooperation has advanced to reach a new level in both quality and quantity. Together with our Chinese counterparts, we are planning coverage for the 80th anniversary of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War," said Vladimir Fesik, head of External Relations Department of All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company.
During the event, the attendees also discussed topics such as China-Russia media cooperation driven by technological innovation and the global craze unleashed by China's animated blockbuster "Ne Zha 2".
They jointly watched the overseas promotional video of "Ne Zha 2" and highlights from CMG's productions on China's development.
Major Russian media outlets, including the government-run Rossiskaya Gazeta, TV BRICS, and Greater Asia TV, covered the event.

The Chinese Grand Prix, a key stop in the Formula One World Championship, wrapped up in Shanghai on Sunday, with attendance reaching around 220,000 spectators, according to the event operator.
The Shanghai event marks the second race of the 24-race Formula One season. Since its debut in the Chinese metropolis in 2004, the F1 Chinese Grand Prix has become a globally recognized sporting event and a significant highlight on the city's sports calendar. As this year coincides with the 75th anniversary of F1, the event drew massive interest.
Outside the event venue, a 32,000-square-meter area was transformed into a free, one-stop automotive culture experience for the public. The venue featured car displays, interactive zones, music stages, and food stalls, offering diverse activities for fans and families alike.
In addition, the Shanghai Jiading District, where the race venue is located, also holds the Shanghai Automobile Culture Festival simultaneously, introducing themed tourism routes and promotional packages combining race tickets with hotelstays and local attractions.
"During the F1 Chinese Grand Prix this year, spending on dining, accommodation, transportation, and entertainment reached a new high. The occupancy rate of major mid-to-high-end hotels in Jiading averaged over 95 percent," said Jin Fen, Deputy Director of the Jiading District Culture and Tourism Bureau.
According to event organizers, 10 percent of the spectators were international visitors, 20 percent were locals of Shanghai, and 70 percent traveled from across China.
"I've been in China (for) two months. I was traveling around. I love it. Shanghai is amazing," said a Russian visitor.
"I come from Jingdezhen City in Jiangxi Province. I've been watching the games for three days," said a Chinese boy.
"I arrived on Friday [to] visit the city, visiting several places like Zhujiajiao, Suzhou and the center of Shanghai," said a visitor from Italy.
Yang Yibin, chairman of the F1 Chinese Grand Prix operating team, highlighted the event's broader impact.
"The three-day event attracted approximately 220,000 spectators. Shanghai has established a coordinated mechanism integrating culture, sports, commerce, tourism, and exhibitions. For major events like this one, it is important to make good use of this mechanism to promote consumption and drive economic growth," he said.
