About a week after the exhibition opened, a group of children and teenagers of Chinese descent from abroad, who was attending a summer camp in China, arrived to view the exhibition. They were from more than 20 countries, and the youngest member was only 6 years old. "Communicating with them and delivering our docent services properly were huge challenges for us. I remember how we were both excited and nervous upon receiving this task. We studied carefully and revised our scripts. We decided to present China's history and ethnic culture by telling the stories of China's ancient cultural relics. We received a positive response from our young audience," says Feng.
Liu recalls a time when the team provided services to a group from Southeast Asia. "When communicating with a foreign audience, we focus on outlining the concepts of 'harmony in diversity' and 'a community with a shared future.' Audiences show their strong interest in China's ethnic culture. By interacting with them, we have helped the audiences gain a deeper understanding of the diversity and inclusiveness of China's ethnic culture. In the meantime, we have become more aware of the importance of cultural exchanges. This experience inspired us to improve our multilingual proficiency, to better tell the stories of the community for the Chinese nation to the world," Liu says.
