The five Beijing Olympic mascots and the Kaku Family go on a journey through time and space for a first hand experience of Olympic History.

The production team itself was an "A-line" crew. The people who worked on the technical side of the series are among the best of Chinese cinema, television and music.

Music is one of the keys to a successful animation. Veteran musicians and singers Liu Huan and Zheng Jun were invited to write the opening and closing themes for the "The Olympic Adventures of the Fuwas." The opening, "Welcome to Beijing" was composed on the ancient five note scale. But the tune combined the traditional Chinese approach to music with the western style. The unaccompanied vocal spoke to all Chinese people to embrace the world with an open heart.

The combination of the music and the star-studded cast of voice actors demonstrates the high quality of this animation smash. It's proven popular among audiences of all ages. That's good for China's animation industry. But what's more important it captures and expresses the Olympic spirit.
