Together with localities and ministries across the country, in a short time, VOV has designed an exhibition space that is likened to a "symphony of time", with its own unique, vivid and multi-dimensional colors. VOV's exhibition booth with the theme "80 years of the Voice of Vietnam accompanying the country" promises to become an attractive destination for the public during this year's National Day holiday. In less than 2 months, VOV has mobilized the intelligence and enthusiasm of hundreds of reporters, editors, technicians, artists and employees to build an exhibition space that fully recreates the 80-year journey. The areas are arranged in series, connecting the past - present - future, providing a multi-dimensional perspective on the development of the Station. The highlight of this space is many valuable artifacts associated with the formation and development of VOV - the national radio agency established by President Ho Chi Minh in the early days of independence. One of the notable artifacts is the 500W loudspeaker that traveled more than 600 km to Hanoi to serve the people after independence. The exhibition booth features many technical devices, microphones, and transmitters that were used in historical periods, including a 300W transmitter that broadcast live the Declaration of Independence from Ba Dinh Square on September 2, 1945. Mr. Pham Manh Hung - Deputy General Director of VOV said: "When the public visits that space, they can visualize the 80-year development history of the Voice of Vietnam , from the first broadcast on September 7, 1945 to the current renovation period. At that time, the station was just a radio unit but was the first press agency established by Uncle Ho in the new regime. After that, the station was directly associated with many important events of the country, such as the resistance war against France and the US, to the Great Victory in Spring 1975...". From the artifacts, the public can see the role of the team of VOV reporters and editors in each historical period: from the resistance war against France and the US, the Renovation in 1986 to international integration and digital transformation today. In addition to valuable artifacts, the exhibition incorporates modern technology to enhance the visitor experience. LED screens recreate a global broadcast map, and an audio experience area with 12 historical milestones. To fully visualize the 80 years of proud history of VOV, at the exhibition space, people will visit 4 interesting and emotional experience areas, interacting with spaces from the period of "pure" radio broadcasting, to the peak period: multimedia associated with VOV's strong digital transformation, affirming the position of Voice of Vietnam in the hearts of the nation and in the digital age. At the exhibition space, all booths and artifacts have bilingual Vietnamese-English captions, making it easy for domestic and foreign visitors to access and learn. In particular, the VR experience “Returning to the sacred moment” allows the public to relive September 2, 1945 at Ba Dinh Square, listening to President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence through 3D graphics technology.
