Film star Jackie Chan joined other celebrities Sunday at a meeting of China's highest-profile advisory body, a move seen by analysts as an attempt by the ruling Communist Party to cultivate "soft power".

在上周日开幕的政协会议上，人们不仅见到了影星成龙，也见到了其他名流的身影。外媒援引分析人士的话称，执政党中国共产党试图以此培养“软实力”。

Nobel literature prizewinner Mo Yan and basketball star Yao Ming also attended the annual meeting of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), organised by the party.

诺贝尔文学奖得主莫言和篮球名将姚明也参加了政协会议。

The 58-year-old, famous in the West for the "Rush Hour" series and "Police Story", kept a low profile outside the meeting.

58岁的成龙在会场外非常低调。他因《尖峰时刻》系列影片及《警察故事》而为西方观众所熟知。

Chan, wearing a black shirt and glasses, said merely that he was "very happy" before boarding a bus with Mo Yan.

成龙身穿一件黑衬衫，戴着眼睛。在和莫言一起登车前，他仅对记者表示自己“很开心”。

Professor Sonny Ho, co-director at Hong Kong's Centre for Greater China Studies, has said Chan was selected to attend the CPPCC because it was thought his stardom could help promote ties with Hong Kong.
