rdf:langString The Amazing Race China (Chinese: 极速前进; pinyin: Jísù Qiánjìn) (Previously known as The Amazing Race) is a Chinese adventure reality game show based on the international Amazing Race franchise. Following the premise of other versions of the format, the show follows teams of two as they race across China and around the world. Each season is split into legs, with teams tasked to deduce clues, navigate themselves in foreign areas, interact with locals, perform physical and mental challenges, and travel by air, boat, car, taxi, and other modes of transport. Teams are progressively eliminated at the end of most legs for being the last to arrive at designated Pit Stops. The first team to arrive at the Finish Line wins two trophies and additional prizes from the show's sponsors. This is the second version of The Amazing Race to be produced in China, following The Amazing Race: China Rush. This new version is broadcast on Shenzhen TV, and had its premiere on October 17, 2014. The host for the show was originally Hong Kong-American actor Andy On. However, On only hosted 2 episodes of the first season and due to scheduling conflicts, did not return for later episodes. Singapore-based Chinese-American actor and host of The Amazing Race Asia and The Amazing Race: China Rush, Allan Wu, took over hosting duties for the remainder of the season and for future seasons. All teams of this version are composed of at least one celebrity from China or Korea.
