oOverseas compatriots are also proud of them.

This doesn't sound very natural to me because we don't use the phrase "overseas compatriots". If you can explain in more detail what you mean by this phrase maybe I can help. I would remove the sentence because the term "national hero" applies to Chinese not living in China as well, therefore it is redundant.
