In other news about this year's Gala - Warren Buffet is also singing and playing guitar.

So, this is kind of weird, but also cool. Billionaire investor and philanthropist Warren Buffett is singing and playing guitar for a Chinese gala that will be broadcast on the internet Jan. 23 for the Lunar New Year of the Dragon, Chinese press announced Thursday (Jan. 5).

The performance has already been videotaped, but they are staying mum on what song Buffett performs.

"We all know that Buffett is good at investment, but fe knew he also did well in singing," Wang Pingjiu, a production executive for the Spring Festival Web Gala, was quoted as saying.

The gala will be broadcast on CNTV.cn and will also feature film star Jackie Chan.

Interestingly, we thought perhaps Chan and Buffett would both be born in a Year of the Dragon, but that is not the case. They are both Year of the Horse babies.

One dream, from winter to summer
Let the people call the shots
One heart, from little to many
Stand up and build the nation

Regardless which home it is in the East, West, North or South
Bit by bit, we will ask of your well-being
No matter how much wind and rain there is
The people's livelihood is most important in my heart

The people are my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
Standing by your side and listening to what's in your heart
Let's talk about family and current affairs together

The people is my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
My veins bloom Spring flowers
Hand in hand, we will know
Wherever the people are
That is where the strength is

One dream, from winter to summer
Let the people call the shots
One heart, from little to many
Stand up and build the nation

Regardless which home it is in the East, West, North or South
Bit by bit, we will ask of your well-being
No matter how much wind and rain there is
The people's livelihood is most important in my heart

The people are my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
Standing by your side and listening to what's in your heart
Let's talk about family and current affairs together

The people are my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
My veins bloom Spring flowers
Hand in hand, we will know
Wherever the people are
That is where the strength is

The people are my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
First the people, then there is country and family
The smiling faces of the people express happiness

The people are my root
The people's livelihood has a hold on my heart
Rich citizens and a strong country harmonise Greater China
Hand in hand, we will know
Wherever the people are
That is where the strength is

Hand in hand, we look up to
Our lovely motherland
The picture in my heart
