On April 30, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the People's Republic of China, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, made an important speech at the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the May Fourth Movement, which triggered a warm response among overseas students. They were full of excitement and said that they should cherish the time of their youth, grow into outstanding talents who can shoulder great responsibilities at an early date, and regard serving the motherland as the goal of lifelong struggle.

The country is stronger overseas and more confident

"President Xi Jinping's important speech made me feel extremely excited and inspired, and pointed out the responsibility and responsibility that should be shouldered for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation for our young generation." Xiang Hua, a doctoral student at the Russian State University of Petroleum and Gas and vice president of the General Association of Chinese Students Studying in Russia, said.

"In recent years, our country has become stronger and stronger under the leadership of the party. As overseas students, we can be very proud to say that we are Chinese. Yan Xiaohui, who is studying for a doctorate in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Ottawa, Canada, said, "The motherland's scientific and technological strength has improved rapidly, high-speed rail and other fields have reached the world's leading level, and more and more Chinese goods have been widely recognized by the world." For the sake of a better future for the motherland, we must uphold the patriotic spirit of May Fourth, keep pace with the times, and continue to struggle without stopping. ”

Qian Jie, who is studying for a master's degree in industrial design at the Pratt Institute of Art in the United States, said that the strength of the country has made us more confident overseas, more determined in our hearts, and have a stronger motivation to struggle.

In the first 18 years of his life, Liu Daming, who experienced 9 fractures, 11 major surgeries, and two deaths, was an undergraduate student majoring in psychology at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom. He said that the change in his life has benefited from the development of his motherland, "It is precisely because of china's development that I have the opportunity to study in the UK in a wheelchair and have the confidence to complete my studies in the UK."

Patriotism translates into action to serve the country

When the youth are prosperous, the country is prosperous, and when the youth are strong, the country is strong. Overseas students interviewed by this reporter said one after another that their personal future and the fate of the country resonate with the same frequency, and they must turn patriotic feelings and aspirations to strengthen the country into actions to serve the country.

"President Xi Jinping's speech at the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the May Fourth Movement is sincere and inspiring, which not only fills us with the strength to move forward, but also makes us feel a heavy responsibility on our shoulders." Xuan Zhemin, who studied at Yale University, said, "As an international student majoring in environment, I will uphold the spirit of the pioneers who studied in the United States and have lofty aspirations and return to China, so that I can become a dreamer who returns to China from a dreamer who studies abroad." ”

"President Xi Jinping mentioned in his speech that 'a generation has a generation's Long March, and a generation has a generation's responsibility'. As a new generation of young people studying abroad, we have a new mission and responsibility, and we must translate patriotic enthusiasm into practical actions of studying hard and working hard. Only by unremitting struggle can we ignite the dream of youth, bloom the light of youth, and dedicate the skills learned to the motherland and the people. Lu Sentong, a doctoral student at the law department of Moscow University and president of the General Association of Chinese Students Studying in Russia, said.

How young people struggle today, what kind of future China will have. Chinese students are also handing over the youth answer sheet with the color of struggle with practical actions: Xianghua combined his major and actively made preliminary scientific explorations for Sino-Russian Arctic oil and gas cooperation; as a young product designer, Qian Jie hopes to design more works that can bloom on the international stage through the advanced design concepts learned during his study abroad, and at the same time combine Chinese culture, so that the world can see the innovation of Chinese students; Yan Xiaohui's major is water conservancy engineering, and his wish is "after graduation and returning to China, use what he has learned." Contribute to the application of artificial intelligence technology in water conservancy engineering"...

"Overseas students in the new era uphold the glorious tradition of studying abroad and serving the country, and link their personal struggle with the development of the motherland. During the period of studying abroad, he worked hard, mastered real talents and practical learning, and practiced excellent skills; after returning to China after completing his studies, he contributed his strength to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. This is the common aspiration of all. Xianghua said.

Connecting China and foreign countries to build a bridge of exchange

"President Xi Jinping's speech makes me feel particularly powerful, particularly touched, full of energy, and also gives me a direction for my future efforts." Xu Dairu, who is studying for a master's degree at Hosei University in Japan, said, "For overseas students, they can play a role in building a bridge between China and the world and showing China's development vitality. Every Chinese student's 'ability' to gather together and gather sand into a tower will surely converge into a powerful force for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. ”

As a "post-90s", Liu Daming believes that it is an important mission of overseas students to convey China's voice to the world.

During the three years of studying abroad, Liu Daming found that foreign friends were very eager for Chinese culture and were full of curiosity about China's development. "As a link between China and foreign exchanges, Chinese students should use what they have learned and learned, adhering to the concept of 'sharing and openness', telling the story of China, so that the world can understand China and feel China." He said.

Liu Daming once explained to foreign students what the people's congress system was in the form of storytelling. After the speech, foreign students said to him: "We have seen China's development miracle, but we do not understand the story behind the miracle, and your popular explanation is what we need most." ”

Qian Jie's American professors have enhanced their understanding and understanding of China through their own students. "In March this year, the professor was invited by my alma mater, Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts, to attend the workshop in China for the first time. After the two-week course, she took a high-speed train tour of Xi'an and Beijing to visit historical sites and experience Chinese culture. This trip to China gave the professor a very different understanding of China. Qian Jie said.

Lu Sentong believes that more and more foreign people want to know about China today. "As a link connecting China and foreign countries, the Chinese student community should be a good messenger for exchanges, so that the world can understand China, enhance mutual understanding between the Chinese people and the people of other countries, and promote mutual spiritual communication."
