To be specific, the players in the speech contest were recommended through a series of selections. Finally, the outstanding contestants from 16 provincially administered municipalities arrived in Hefei City to take part in the contest, the theme of which was ‘Fly The Chinese Dream And Sing For The New Age Loudly’. Thus, contestants had the opportunity to report their reading results and exchange their book review.

In conclusion, the implementation of this informative event let candidates ‘return to paper books’. By means of extensive reading, deep thinking and hands-on practice, players told stories about meritorious deeds around themselves and sang the praises of our motherland’s construction achievements in combination with their personal thought reality as well as the development and changes of their hometowns. Therefore, this grand event not only demonstrated our teenagers’ spirituality under the new era, but also embodied their noble morality to care for the motherland and always be with people.
