Santa Claus is the person bringing presents to people on Christmas. In this increasingly globalized era, a large number of stuffs are made in China. As the world factory, the role China plays on the international stage is somewhat similar to Santa, bringing presents to the whole world.

On the day of the implementation of the project, a human-sized Santa Claus stand will be placed at the large shopping mall. Audience will be invited to stand behind the board and smile. A picture of you in the Santa outfit will be taken. Moreover, if you like, you can also leave a message on the board, telling people what kind of presents you would like to bring to people in the west.

In the past, Santa Claus always appeared as an old kind Caucasian man. But now the face of Santa appears to be Asian. To some extent, this could be considered as a metaphor, implying the rapid development of Chinese economy and the changing global pattern.
