To bring historical sites closer to the public and spark widespread interest in delving into the long course of Chinese history, Ji livestreamed his journey to Jingbian county via online platforms such as Yizhibo. He also plans to livestream visits to other important sites, including the Liangzhu Neolithic ruins in Zhejiang province, the Dadiwan historical site of Qin'an in Gansu province, and the Banpo Neolithic relic site in Shaanxi province.
"As one of the descendants of the Yellow emperor, I feel a strong sense of responsibility to untangle the complex information about how the country and the people evolved through the long course of history," says Ji, who has traveled around China twice to study folklore and material remains of ancient times.
