A gala dinner for the 2017 Fortune Global Forum participants was held at the Canton Tower from 7pm to 9pm on Dec 7. Business leaders from around the world were served a meal of delicious Cantonese dishes as they enjoyed the spectacular views of the magnificent New Central Axis of Guangzhou and appreciated the exciting performances featuring Cantonese Culture.
The night culminated with a spectacular light show by a fleet of 1,180 drones made in Guangzhou, which sets a new Guinness World Record. The drones were manufactured by Ehang, a Guangzhou-based technology company and the entire fleet's performance was controlled by just one man with one computer.
