China's famous antique collector Ma Weidu's online show "Talk About" became an online click as it arouses the interest of the masses, especially Chinese teenagers.
"Talk About," which is streamed by Youku.com and filmed at the expert's private art museum in Beijing, delivers a 20-minute online show that tackles culture, history and social events wherein Ma himself discusses every issue and expresses his own opinions.
Ma also picks one item from his artifact collection and interprets its value and significance in the second part of the show.
Some see the show to be one of Ma's greatest achievements, as it has helped stimulate the enthusiasm of the Chinese youth on the country's traditional culture.
In fact, some of them are even asking questions regarding practical skills and how teenagers should be educated to be more passionate in traditional culture.
Ma Weidu started collecting antiques in the 1980s and later became known in China when he appeared in CCTV's popular culture show "Lecture Room."
The opening of his Guanfu Museum, which is considered to be China's first private artifact repository, also made Ma one the country's leading antique experts.
Guanfu Museum has a branch in Hangzhou, the capital and largest city of Zhejiang Province in eastern China.
Aside from showcasing his antique collection, Ma is also a renowned antique book writer since 1992.
His book "Writers' Rich List," which was launched by Chengdu Daily, became the top five book in 2008.
"Talk About" will soon appear on the Chinese television, as Guangxi Satellite Channel has bought the rights to the show.
