Bollywood Location Shooting & ‘Screen Diplomacy’

宝莱坞取景与“银幕外交”

The 2000 Bollywood film Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai was filmed in Queenstown, the first Hindi film shot on a large scale in New Zealand; estimated at over 500 million viewers in India, it directly drove a marked rise in Indian visitor numbers to New Zealand in 2001–2002.

2000年宝莱坞电影《Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai》在皇后镇取景,是首部大规模在新西兰拍摄的印地语电影,印度国内观影人次估计逾5亿,直接带动2001至2002年间印度赴新游客量显著上升。

Producer Rakesh Roshan received a certificate of thanks from then-Prime Minister Helen Clark in 2004; the film's 25th anniversary in 2025 brought choreographer Farah Khan to New Zealand for commemorative events, and the first ‘Indian Film Festival of New Zealand’ is being planned for 2026.

制片人拉凯什·罗申2004年获时任总理海伦·克拉克颁发感谢证书;2025年适逢该片25周年,编舞家法拉·汗访新出席纪念活动,双方正筹备2026年首届新西兰印度电影节。

The 2011 Triple Echo

2011年的三重回响

After the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, more than 450 international rescue personnel from Japan, China, Singapore, Taiwan and elsewhere joined the relief effort; a 70-strong Japanese search-and-rescue team focused on the collapsed CTV building. While that team was still working on-site, the Tōhoku earthquake struck Japan on 11 March, and the team rushed home.

2011年基督城地震后,日本、中国、新加坡、台湾等地450余名国际救援人员驰援,日本70人搜救队重点参与CTV大楼搜救;就在其仍于当地作业期间,3月11日东日本大地震突然爆发,日本队紧急撤回国内。

Weeks later China's earthquake authority sent a 15-strong emergency rescue team to Japan in turn — within a single month, a complete two-way disaster-relief chain had formed between Christchurch and Tokyo, one of the most humanly resonant episodes in New Zealand's relations with North East Asia.

数周后中国地震局随即派出15人应急救援队驰援日本——一个月内基督城与东京之间形成完整的双向灾难互助链条,是东北亚关系中人文深度极高的一段历史。

Auckland's Diwali Festival: The Southern Hemisphere's Largest

奥克兰排灯节:南半球最大庆典

From Kiwifruit to Bubble Tea

从奇异果到珍珠奶茶

The kiwifruit traces its origins to the Chinese gooseberry native to Hunan, China, bred by New Zealand horticulturists in the early twentieth century into a national icon; mānuka honey has in recent years become one of New Zealand's fastest-growing premium exports to East Asia.

奇异果原生种源可追溯至中国湖南猕猴桃,20世纪初经新西兰园艺学家引种改良成为国家名片;马努卡蜂蜜近年成为对东亚出口增长最快的高端农产品之一。

From the late twentieth century, migrants from Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, India, Korea and Japan brought their cuisines to New Zealand, giving rise to a distinctive Pacific-edge ‘fusion cuisine’; bubble-tea shops have spread rapidly around urban Asian communities since the 2000s.

20世纪下半叶泰国、越南、马来西亚、印度、韩国、日本移民陆续将本国烹饪带入新西兰,孕育出独具太平洋边缘特色的融合菜系;珍珠奶茶店铺自2000年代起在都市亚裔社区周边快速普及。

The Only Top Literary Honour

唯一的最高文学荣誉

Fourth-generation Chinese New Zealand writer Alison Wong's debut novel As the Earth Turns Silver (2009), set in early-twentieth-century Wellington's Chinese quarter, faithfully depicts the historical backdrop of a real 1905 racially motivated murder.

第四代华裔作家艾莉森·黄(Alison Wong)的长篇小说处女作《当大地转为银色》(2009)以20世纪初惠灵顿华人街区为背景,如实呈现了1905年真实种族仇恨罪案的历史底色。

The novel won the 2010 New Zealand Post Book Award for Fiction, remaining to date the only novel by an Asian New Zealand author to receive the country's top literary honour; in 2021 Wong co-edited A Clear Dawn, New Zealand's first anthology of Asian creative writing.

该作荣获2010年新西兰邮政图书奖小说奖,是迄今唯一一部获得新西兰最高文学荣誉的亚裔新西兰作家小说作品;2021年黄与他人合编出版新西兰首部亚裔创作文集《清晰的黎明》。

From Lan Yuan to a Trans-Pacific Municipal Network

从“兰园”到跨太平洋市政网络

Christchurch and Kurashiki became sister cities in 1973, New Zealand's oldest civic bond with Japan; Wellington alone holds six Asian sister cities — Xiamen, Sakai, Taipei, Tianjin, Qingdao and Beijing — more than any other New Zealand city.

克赖斯特彻奇与仓敷市自1973年结为姊妹城市,是新西兰-日本最古老的城市友好关系;惠灵顿同时拥有厦门、堺市、台北、天津、青岛、北京六座亚洲姊妹城市,居全国之冠。

Dunedin and Shanghai became sister cities in 1994, and in 2008 jointly built Lan Yuan — the only authentic Chinese scholar's garden in the Southern Hemisphere — which is paired as the sole overseas ‘sister garden’ of Shanghai's Yu Garden; Dunedin's first Chinese-descent mayor, Peter Chin, chaired the Lan Yuan Trust.

达尼丁与上海1994年结为姊妹城市,2008年合作建成南半球唯一的正宗中国文人园林兰园,与上海豫园结为全球唯一的姊妹园林;达尼丁首位华裔市长陈永华亲任兰园信托主席。

Fifty Years of Gamelan in Aotearoa

甘美兰在新西兰的五十年

In 1975, Victoria University of Wellington acquired New Zealand's first set of Indonesian gamelan instruments; the Indonesian Embassy has continuously provided expert teachers since 1983, and in 1992 the ensemble was named ‘Padhang Moncar’ (‘the first light of dawn’), reflecting New Zealand's position among the first gamelan groups in the world to greet each new day.

1975年惠灵顿维多利亚大学购入新西兰第一套印尼甘美兰乐器;1983年起印尼使馆持续派驻专业教师至今;1992年乐团定名Padhang Moncar(晨光初绽),寓意新西兰是全球最早迎接曙光的甘美兰乐团之一。

The Balinese-style ensemble ‘Gamelan Taniwha Jaya’ is itself an act of cultural fusion — combining the Māori water-spirit ‘Taniwha’ with the Indonesian word for ‘glory’, ‘Jaya’; New Zealand today has at least six active gamelan ensembles nationwide.

巴厘岛风格乐团Gamelan Taniwha Jaya的命名本身就是一次跨文化融合——毛利水神Taniwha与印尼语辉煌(Jaya)的结合;截至今日新西兰全国已有至少6支活跃甘美兰乐团。

1964年东京奥运会,彼得·斯内尔一人独得800米与1500米两金,成为新西兰首位单届双金得主;2008年北京奥运会超级星期六单日狂揽5枚奖牌,创下该国奥运单日纪录。
