Guo Shuting

My name is Guo Shuting,a twenty four-year-old female postgraduate majoring in international relations from Yunnan University.My reasons why I attend this competition can be concluded to the following matters.

Firstly,I am interested in the Belt,the Road Initiative.As far as I know,the BRI includes the policy coordination,facilities connectivity,unimpeded trade,financial integration and people- to-people bond,which is beneficial to promoting the world economic growth and global governance.Secondly,this competition can make contribution to improving my English level.Thirdly, this competition is rewarding to expressing my ideas about public diplomacy to the people who are focused on this issue,therefore, it can advance China’s soft power and international influence in the fast-changing situation.

Then,I have all kinds of hobbies.Firstly,I am fond of traveling.I have been to Forbidden City,the Great Wall,the West Lake,Suzhou Classical Garden and so on. Secondly,I like to visit fascinating museums,such as the Silk museum,panda museum,kite museum and so on.Thirdly, I am crazy about reading books and watching TV dramas,for instance, “Romance of Three Kingdoms”, “Soft Power”, “To the Republic”, “Nirvana in Fire”,enriching my life and expanding my horizon.

In addition, I enjoy taking part in speech competition and drama competition.In the drama competition, I played the role of two of my idols,which were Hua Mulan(花木兰) and Gu Weijun(顾维钧).As we all know,Hua Mulan was the outstanding lady in the Northern Wei Dynasty.She impressed me a lot,not only because of the figure herself, but also the spirit I learned from her.For example, she broke the traditional view and spared no effort to achieve her own value. Then ,I want to talk about Gu Weijun who was one of the most excellent diplomats of last century in China. He was born in Shanghai. He graduated from Columbia University. Mr. Wilson, the American President during World War 1, was his classmate.In the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, he demanded that Japan return Shandong province to China,which is rewarding to safeguarding China’s sovereignty and national confidence . Moreover, this event made him famous in the international arena.

Meanwhile,I think I have some advantages about this competition,in that I possess colorful experiences.Firstly,I went to Beijing to attend MODEL APEC Conference in the last summer.Secondly ,I became a volunteer of 2016 Confucius Institute Conference in Kunming.Thirdly, I am a tour guide of Yunnan University.Fourthly,I have published some papers of International relations.In addition,last month,I went to Sichuan University to attend the Annual Conference about American Study. Lastly,this winter holiday,I went to Europe to visit EU headquarter and learn to about a host of knowledge about European integration.

Lastly, it is my great honor to participant in this meaningful competition.Besides,I am looking forward to my ideas can be accepted by relative administration so as to make contribution to promoting Chinese soft power.
