2010 Shanghai Expo Mascot Picture Unveiled [Photo] - Golden Sunlight

The mascot is named "Haibao". It takes the Chinese character "ren" (meaning "person") as the core concept. The anthropomorphic Haibao cleverly interprets the theme of the Shanghai World Expo 2010 - "Better City, Better Life". After all, people are the main characters of city life. Meanwhile, "Haibao" also integrates the element of "sea". It is water-like in its main form, with a hairdo styled like sea waves. Its color is chosen as sea blue. Moreover, its name "Haibao" itself implies "the treasure of four seas".
