[Global Network Reporter Yin Yanhui] According to Taiwan's "ETtoday News Cloud" report on the 8th, the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics is underway. A total of 18,000 volunteers have been recruited from the mainland, including 33 young Taiwanese volunteers.
The report mentioned that Beijing Zizhuyuan Park has a Winter Olympics Volunteer Service Team composed of 10 Taiwanese youths to promote cross-strait creative activities from the second day of the Chinese New Year (2nd).
According to the report, Chen Wencheng, a volunteer representative from Taiqing City, said, "We will play cross-strait creative themed game on the second day of the lunar new year to make Zizhuyuan a popular check-in place. The first stage is for people to take pictures and send greetings, and upload the check-in WeChat Moments. , the second level is dance and Hokkien language teaching, and the third level is a quiz about cross-strait knowledge. After completion, we will present Taiwan Youth Design Cross-strait postcards and bookmarks, and everyone has received very enthusiastic responses."
Taiqing interacted with Beijing citizens, and there were many interesting episodes.
For example, the Volunteer Station displayed many Winter Olympics mascots "Bing Dun Dun", and many people would ask, "Is there any for sale here? How much is one?"
The report mentioned that many people in Beijing asked curiously, "Are you from Taiwan? Didn't you go home for the New Year?"
Lin Jiaxuan, a Taiwanese student studying in Beijing, said, "Everyone is very interested in the activities we designed and praised our physical strength. From the second to the sixth day of the second day, there is no rest from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. Many people feel our Enthusiastic, I feel very moved.”
Wang Yiming, a Taiwanese student also from Taiwan, is currently studying in the Department of Population Resources and Environmental Economics at the School of Environment, Renmin University of China.
During the interview, he shared, "In the past, everyone went outside for the Spring Festival. From the seventh day of the first year, the elderly from the family took their children out to the park. One or two thousand people came every day. The service period was a bit hard, but it was hard to recall."
Cai Yiling, a graduate student in tourism management from Nanhua University in Taiwan, came to the Department of Information Management of Peking University as a one-year exchange student in March last year. It happened to be the Winter Olympics event, and she signed up immediately and was successfully selected for volunteer work.
She said that as a person, one should know how to be grateful and think of the source when drinking water, because her grandfather is from Anhui and her grandmother is from Penghu, and she has felt the importance of mutual understanding in cross-strait exchanges since she was a child.
She said, "Study and life in mainland China has given me a closer understanding of Chinese culture. The Winter Olympics is a great opportunity to spread Chinese culture to all parts of the world." She also thanked her alma mater, Nanhua University, for allowing herself to be exchanged with Peking University. , this is a very rare karma when I was a student.
Cai Yiling said, "During the Chinese New Year service, the experience of teaching foreign tourists to speak Hokkien is very profound, allowing international friends to understand Chinese culture and the knowledge of the Winter Olympics. Each of us is an innovator and inheritor of culture. In addition to promoting Chinese culture, we also feel As a Taiwanese youth volunteer, our mission is to promote global communication.”
It is rare to come to Beijing to experience the local life, and encounter snowy weather. As a southern child, I am naturally excited to see snow.
Cai Yiling also took the opportunity to learn snowboarding. Although she fell badly, it is a fond memory. Many Taiwanese classmates are also envious of her colorful life in the mainland.
