What do you think the mascot of the 20 10 Shanghai World Expo stands for? What's the story?

"Haibao" takes the Chinese character "human" as its core idea, which embodies the profound traditional culture of China and the spirit of the times of "people-oriented", and is a vivid portrayal of the great changes in China's economic society and people's spiritual outlook in the past 30 years of reform and opening up.

"Haibao" chooses "blue water" as the main form, which not only shows the regional characteristics and natural beauty of Shanghai, the venue of the World Expo, but also symbolizes openness and tolerance, showing China's brand-new attitude of integrating into and embracing the world.

Water is the source of life. The blue main color of "Haibao" also represents the earth, dream, ocean, life, future and technology, which is in deep agreement with the theme of "Better City, Better Life" of Shanghai World Expo.

The theme of the Shanghai World Expo tells the world that people are the main body of the city, the main body of creating a better life and the main body of enjoying a better life. The development of the country and society should be "people-oriented". Man is the cell and soul of the city-man endows the city with culture, individuality and creativity. With the acceleration of global urbanization, more and more people become "city dwellers". Only when people all over the world support each other and live in harmony with nature, society and people will the world be better.

Haibao is both water and human. Well, there should be a story about him traveling around the world across the sea.
