The competition was hosted by Xu Baofeng, director of the World Sinology Center of Beijing Language and Culture University and president of the the Belt and Road Research Institute. Cao Wei, deputy secretary general of the National Society of Innovation and Development Strategy, Sun Jianhua, deputy secretary general of the International Federation of Confucianism, and Zhang Yan, host, chief announcer and winner of the China Journalism Award, served as the Chinese judges.

The 19 finalists competed on the same stage, presenting "Youth Innovation and Development" on topics such as science and technology, environmental protection, translation, teaching and cultural exchange. They put into practice the vision of Beijing Language and Culture University of "telling China and living in harmony with the world" with their unique perspectives and ideas.

From the unique perspective of "cultural communication", Yang Jing, a student from our school, discussed how young people should "tell the story of China well".
