On March 1st, the Executive Committee for the Guangzhou Divisionof the 15th National Games, the Paralympics, and Special Olympics launched the "15th Games, 15 Cities" Harbin Station series events at three venues, Central Street in Harbin, Beijing Road in Guangzhou, and Guangzhou Sunac Snow Park. This grand sports and cultural event, spanning north and south, ignited public passion for the Games in both cities through landmark light shows, AI-designed ice cream, and other unique activities.

At 11:00 AM, the three venueskicked off the festivities. The Executive Committee of the Guangzhou Division erected an artificial ''kapok flower wall'' on Central Street in Harbin, symbolizing the heroic spirit of the Lingnan area of southern China. Hundreds of flowers were arranged to form the words "Hello, Erbin," bringing a touch of southern spring to the northern winter.

The event coincided with the launch of Guangzhou's "Hero Flowers Bloom in the Hero City" activities. At the Guangzhou ceremony, the Buye Band collaborated with Olympic champions Yang Jinghui, Jiao Liuyang, and Yang Yilin to perform the official promotional song of the 15th National Games, extending a heartfelt invitation to visitors from all over the country to the "City of Heroes."

Harbin's Central Street transformed into a "National Games Corridor," where a massive snow wall featuring sports-themed carvings of track and field, football, volleyball, and more captivated residents and tourists. Visitors flocked to pose creatively for the "Strike a Pose for the Games" challenge, fully embracing the passion and energy of sports.

At all three venues, the "15th Games AI-designed Ice Cream," jointly launched by Harbin's century-old brand Modern Ice Cream and Guangzhou's local brand Wuyang Ice Cream, stole the spotlight. Designed by DeepSeek, this unique treat blends the flavors of Guangzhou's lychee and water chestnut with Harbin's pine nuts and blueberries, using digital technology to merge cultural symbols from the north and south. While enjoying the ice cream, visitors could also watch an online video showcasing its design process, experiencing the fascinating fusion of technology and culture.

At the Guangzhou Sunac Snow Park, the recently concluded Asian Winter Games in Harbin further fueled the enthusiasm for ice and snow sports in southern China. Twelve-year-old student Zhu, after completing his parallel giant slalom training, tasted the AI-designedice cream. He shared his excitement about following the 15th National Games and his hope of attending the event in person. "I think the dual-city collaboration between Guangzhou and Harbin is very creative. It really brings people together from across the country. Being able to enjoy Harbin's ice cream and specialties right here in Guangzhou is amazing!"

Meanwhile, 40 athletes from Harbin joined the event on Central Street, adding an extra dose of winter sports passion to the occasion. "We welcome friends from Guangzhou to experience the charm of ice and snow in Harbin, and we look forward to achieving great results together with athletes from the Greater Bay Area (GBA) at the National Games," said Gao Muqing, a hammer throw athlete, who is currently preparing intensively for the Games.
