Video contest ends, love for Beijing continues

Liu Weiling, Deputy Editor-in-Chief of China Daily, pointed out in her speech that the participants of the competition have, with unique perspectives, vivid pictures and sincere emotions, interpreted the charm and glamour of Beijing as an ancient capital with thousands of years of history. These works not only showcase the urban style and cultural heritage of Beijing, but also convey the profound affection of loving and praising Beijing.

"The entries for this competition come from young people of different nationalities. They have shown us the infinite charm of Beijing from their own perspectives, and in their works, I can feel the young creators' love for Beijing," said Cong Fangjun, the Director of the Multi-language International Communication Practical Teaching Center and a new media expert from the School of International Studies at the Communication University of China. "They have not only explored Beijing's historical relics in depth, but also presented the long history and rich culture of the city through their works."

"The creators presented a warm Beijing from different perspectives, showing its inclusiveness as an international metropolis by recording the daily life of foreign friends studying and working in Beijing and the warmth and friendliness they felt in communication with Beijing local residents. This also conveyed the open and diverse cultural atmosphere of this city," Cong said.
