The inaugural Chinese New Year Sports Gala will debut during the upcoming Spring Festival.
Featuring eight-time NBA All-Star and Chinese Basketball Association boss Yao Ming, table tennis legend Liu Guoliang and over 100 other sporting celebrities, the gala will be the equivalent to Chunwan, the China Central Television (CCTV) New Year's Gala, which is one of the world's most watched annual telecasts.
Towering over the other stars at Monday's rehearsal was Yao, who is marshaling the ongoing Chinese basketball reform.
