Logo: On a black/blue gradient background (a la WITF former 2nd logo), we see a letters "EAV" in red, green and blue flying over the screen (a la KLRN logo) which settles down, then a golden Chinese text floats over the screen; also, we see the English company name floating with some pieces effect to form the Chinese and English name in golden font, then spins out; as the "EAV" turns into a Hubei logo in a gold, with a abstract vinyl and a crane walking on the vinyl tip. The Chinese and English name then make room for the blank space to finish the logo; as the logo fades out shortly.

FX/SFX: The golden letters forming, the flying and the "EAV" turning into Hubei logo.

Music/Sounds: A orchestral fanfare, with a drums and horns at the end, then a 1-note orchestral sounder at the end. The later variant has the disco fanfare with the bombastic sounder; which used on the next logo.

Availability: Ultra rare. Can be seen on some VHS and VCD releases of Hubei, as well as a DVD releases, which is hard to find. Some releases by Hubei included Chinese People in Pyongyang, Mongolia Friendly Rider and How Ethnic & Buddhist Can Pray?.

Editor's Note: This jingle is favorite to Chinese logo community, but Hubei is now considered to be a video distributors logos in the Wuhan city (during the coronavirus outbreak).
