Hundreds of cartoon-like figures of ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius are making a big impact at the 12th China (Shenzhen) International Cultural Industries Fair (ICIF), which is being held in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen from May 12 to 16.

With different facial expressions and postures, the figures are displayed in rows to draw visitors to take pictures.

Titled “Hello, Kong Zi”, (the literal name of Confucius in Chinese), the exhibit belongs to a pioneering “Culture Recreation” project launched by Shenzhen Bolin Wenchuang Co Ltd.
