OCM President to Attend Private Reception for Chinese Cultural Icon, Dashan

Michel Jullian will be on hand for key ceremony and private performance.

OCM Manufacturing President & CEO, Michel Jullian, has been invited to attend a special reception for Dashan, a Canadian performer who has achieved cultural icon status in China.

Dr. Jullian, who has travelled twice to China to visit OCM’s office in Shenzhen, will be on hand when mayor Bob Chiarelli and the Chinese Ambassador to Canada present Dashan with a key to the city.

“I look forward to this opportunity to learn more about Chinese culture and to meet other local business people with interests in China,” Jullian said.

“Dashan” is the stage name of Mark Rowswell. Almost unknown outside of mainland China, Dashan is arguably the most famous foreigner in China. He has become a regular fixture on Chinese television and a cultural icon across the nation.

In short, Dashan is a westerner who speaks fluent Chinese and has become a domestic celebrity in China. For the past 17 years Dashan has been appearing on Chinese television to audiences as large as 800 million viewers (and that’s a conservative estimate).

Dashan will give a special performance for attendees of this private event.
