Have you all been brushed by a Fuzhou beauty named Lin Haiyin recently? The reason is that she won this year's "Global Top Ten Outstanding Chinese Youth" award (Big Ben Award). Born in Fuzhou, Lin Haiyin was admitted to Fudan at the age of 18, and later to Columbia University, where she was a violinist and now an excellent portrait photographer.

Awesome word sister!
However, you may not know that the founder of the "Big Ben Award" is also a Fuzhou native, and he also walked out of our three lanes and seven lanes. Also a child of another family!
His name is Li Junchen and he is an economist. His titles are numerous: venture capital and private equity institutional investor professional investor, capital operation expert, financial investment management consultant, economist, art connoisseur, financial scholar.

The Big Ben Awards have actually gone through 8 years
The 2016 Big Ben Awards Charity Awards Ceremony was held on October 15 at Westminster Central Hall in London, ENGLAND. In addition to Lin Haiyin, who won the "Global Top Ten Outstanding Chinese Youth" award this year, there are also gold medal lyricist Fang Wenshan and famous host Wang Han, which can be called heavyweight awards.

In the conversation with Li Junchen, we found that the original "Big Ben Award" has been established for many years.
Preparations for the Big Ben Award began in 2008 and were held for the first time in 2009. Today, the "Big Ben Award" has gone through 8 years, from the selection of the Top Ten Outstanding Chinese Youth in the United Kingdom in 2009 to the selection of the "Top Ten Outstanding Chinese Youth in the World" in 2010. In the world, it is one of the longest-lasting and influential outstanding Chinese selections.

In the past 8 years, the winners have included snooker athletes Fu Jiajun and Ding Junhui, famous artists Eason Chan, pianist Li Yundi, violinist Chen Mei, "legendary Chinese woman" Deng Wendi, and Yu Liya, who won the German Literature Prize at the age of 15.

"The Big Ben Award is a stage for establishing overseas Chinese to serve the motherland and realize the value of life, reflecting the indispensable role of overseas Chinese on the road of the Chinese nation to stand tall among the nations of the world." This introduction is full of confidence.

In addition to the Ten Masters Award, the "Big Ben Award" actually has some individual awards, including the Individual Award, the Enterprise Award, the Golden Unicorn Award, the Golden Mulberry Tree Award, the Divine Work Award, the Heratlors Award, etc. In 2015, the Big Ben Awards Organizing Committee launched the Belt and Road Special Contribution Award, which was supported by the national Belt and Road think tank.
"The positive energy of the Chinese people needs to be spread"
Referring to why the award was created, Li Junchen said that the idea of creating this award actually began as early as 2004. However, due to many objective factors, it was not founded in that year. And its Big Ben Awards were named after a private party — perhaps a great start to a lot of casual moves.
At that time, when several Chinese in the Uk and local British people gathered, someone proposed a plan and decided on the name of the award, and everyone began to implement it. Li Junchen is one of the founders.
Other people can get together to do a big thing, think about myself, the party will only play mobile phones...

In the words of Li Junchen, in fact, their original intention is to let everyone see how hard and excellent the Chinese people are, and they want to spread the "positive energy" of the outstanding Chinese.
In 2010, Lee Chun-chen presented Eason Chan with the "Big Ben Award"
At that time, Li Junchen was not yet 30 years old, think back to my life before the age of 30...
The Big Ben Awards have been in existence for 8 years, and along the way, Li Junchen is the main investor. From audition, re-evaluation, final evaluation, to the site, contact with the winners, the award process, and media contact, Li Junchen needs to be almost all determined, some things need to be done by himself, and his team members are of course working overtime.
He replied very easily: "'Wood shows in the forest, and the wind will urge it'." I think it's quite a sense of accomplishment, and it's not easy for some of us to do such a thing. "Next year, he will continue to hold it, and even consider holding a selection of outstanding young people on both sides of the taiwan strait."
Three lanes and seven lanes to go out of the child paper
Li Junchen, whose original name was Li Yinya, was born in Fuzhou to a family of scholars. Li Junchen's home was at No. 21 HuangXiang, at that time, the most famous of Sanfang Seven Lanes was the two streets that connected , Nanhou Street and South Street, "Nanhou Street is a very life-like place, there are all kinds of small shops, traditional handicrafts, especially during the Spring Festival, the streets are full of red lanterns." When I was a child, I ran with my father holding a lantern on the South Back Street during the Lantern Festival, and the scene is still vividly remembered. ”
Neighbors are relatives, and brothers and sisters grew up in the alleys. Today, Li Junchen's relatives are basically abroad, but his parents still insist on staying in Fuzhou, so he now often returns to Fuzhou, running at home and abroad. "Although it was demolished in 2004, Yellow Lane has changed today, and No. 21 has become a café, but I still go back and walk around often."

Li Junchen is also an out-and-out bully: when he was studying, Li Junchen was an active child, he chose liberal arts in high school, and in college, he studied finance. Two years after graduation, he worked in a public institution for two years, however, the nine-to-five job made him feel "hopeless". In 2002, he "jumped out of his comfort zone" and chose to study in the UK.
During his time in the UK, Li Junchen has served as a well-known enterprise or director of well-known enterprises such as Pearson Group (subsidiary enterprises) of the world's top 500 companies, and served as chief economist and investment partner of London Investment Banking Company, participating in the capital operation of many projects, including the investment and financing restructuring of large groups such as Indian Steel and Glencore switzerland. He was an assistant to Ye Huanrong, the richest Chinese man in Britain.
He also served as a visiting professor at Chinese Min University, a visiting researcher at Peking University, etc., published the English book "Investing in China", Chinese books "The City of London - The Take-off of the Financial Capital", "The Financial War of the Empire That Never Sets", etc.
He also wrote a book to former British Prime Minister Blair↓
Li Junchen is also the President of the World Junior Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Founding Chairman of the British Chinese Youth Federation.
In Li Junchen's own words, the "Big Ben Award" is actually "playing", unintentionally planting willows and willows, and he himself did not expect to achieve such a big influence.
Well, I hurried to read a book to calm down.
