Peter Yang says he tries to avoid showing up in his food store at the Chinatown in downtown Adelaide, capital city of South Australia, these days.
"I hate to be confronted with my customers asking for tickets," Yang says, referring to the sold-out performance given by a group of China's finest singers and dancers, who have been on an annual one-month global tour to entertain overseas Chinese during the Chinese Lunar New Year season since 2009.
This is the second time the tour, launched by the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of China's State Council, has reached Adelaide, a city of about 1.2 million people including around 50,000 ethnic Chinese.
