  On the 10th, Anhui Agricultural University held a New Year celebration. 66 international students experienced the Chinese New Year together, alleviating the loneliness of "home" school students in foreign countries.

  The University of Science and Technology of China "exhibits" the "exclusive New Year's Eve dinner" specially prepared for the students studying in the university, including braised lion's head, spicy saliva chicken, tomato scrambled eggs, and a Chinese New Year "Study Babies Gift"— -"Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" cheesecake, "Mathematical Analysis Tutorial" milk fruit, "Introduction to Astrophysics" meat muffin and "Inorganic Chemistry" black gold shortbread.

Netizens laughed and said that this is "the book has its own New Year's Eve dinner", "you will immediately become a master after eating."

  Unlike the foreign students who are in China for the first time, Wu Fei from Romania will return to Huzhou, Zhejiang Province this year with her boyfriend.

Last year, she also celebrated the Spring Festival in Huzhou.

For the Spring Festival in China, she seemed "good at driving" and joined the "five blessings" army.

"I'm just short of a job blessing." She was going to wait for a wave of "five blessings" red envelopes on the night of New Year's Eve.

  Ci Chengwan, a Thai student studying for a master's degree in the School of International Education of Shandong Normal University, chose to use the time of the Chinese New Year to study Chinese culture.

Spreading the copybooks and dipping in ink, she skillfully wrote "Happy New Year" with a brush.

  Unlike the foreign students who celebrate the New Year at the "House" family, people entering the workplace have a more "firework" way of celebrating the holidays.

  Li Zhengxi is a Korean employee working in Jiangsu Province.

This year, affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, he and more than two hundred Korean employees in the company chose to stay in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province for the festival.

  "I read the news and learned that express delivery, food delivery and other industries will provide services during the Spring Festival, so I feel more at ease." Li Zhengxi said, working and living in China are very convenient in all aspects.

During the Spring Festival, Li Zhengxi also plans to go to the Three Kingdoms City, Water Margin City, Yuantouzhu and other scenic spots in Wuxi.

"I heard that tickets are free during the Spring Festival."

  Deloitte West China Deputy Managing Partner Zhang Peng is from Hong Kong and has been working and living in Chongqing since 2009.

In order to make the Spring Festival full of ceremonies, he ordered the pot choi that the people of Hong Kong and Guangdong would prepare every festive holiday from the restaurant early, which symbolized the good wish of festive reunion, and also ordered a lot of fresh fruits from the Internet.

  Unlike the "empty cities" during the Spring Festival in previous years, major cities in China are very popular this year.

  In Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, the high-speed railway station, long-distance bus station, and airport where traffic flowed and crowded in previous years were particularly “free”, while the urban center, which became an “empty city” during the Spring Festival Golden Week, was bustling and bustling. A different kind of lively "New Year".

  To this end, Nanjing organized and planned nearly a thousand festival cultural feasts.

Spring festival couplets are hung at the city gates, blessings are given in the New Year, the online Lantern Festival concert "Snow Lantern on the 15th of the First Lunar Month"... various activities run through the entire Spring Festival.

  Red couplets and lanterns have been posted and hung on the streets of Inner Mongolia, northern Xinjiang, China, and some children who can’t wait for the New Year have put on new clothes.

  While everyone is celebrating the New Year, there are still many people who stick to their jobs.

  In order to allow people along the lines of China and Laos to get on the train as soon as possible, 17,000 builders from many places in China are working day and night at hundreds of sites, racing against time to advance the construction of the project, and strive to ensure that the railway is open to operation by the end of this year.

  Luo Min is the chief engineer of the China-Laos Railway Yumo Section Project Department of China Railway Third Bureau. Counting from the construction of the China-Laos Railway in Xishuangbanna in 2016, this is the fifth Spring Festival he spent on the construction site.

  This year, my wife brought her 2-year-old son to the construction site in advance from her hometown in Hubei.

"As long as a family is reunited, it is home everywhere." Luo Min said.
