Celebrating the 70th Anniversary of the Founding of China: "Xingong Cup" Essay Competition
In a grand celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the "Xingong Cup" On-Site Essay Competition for primary and secondary school students was held at Wuxing Middle School in Nanan City. The event was themed "Tribute to Beautiful China" and aimed to inspire patriotic sentiments and celebrate the country's remarkable transformations over the past seven decades.
A Prestigious Event
The award ceremony was graced by the presence of distinguished guests, including Ms. Chen Yali, a senior staff member of the Guanqiao Town Party Committee, Mr. Hong Xinmin, General Manager of Nanan Xingong Machinery Co., Ltd., and Mr. and Mrs. Lei Zhihua, along with representatives from the company. Over 300 participants attended, including principals, teachers, and students from various schools in Guanqiao Town.
A Platform for Young Voices
The "Xingong Cup" essay competition featured on-site writing, allowing students to express their heartfelt reflections on the monumental changes in China over the past 70 years. The competition aimed to ignite patriotic passion and encourage students to pen their own patriotic narratives. Out of the 8,560 students who participated in the initial selection, 206 advanced to the on-site competition. The event culminated in the selection of 32 first-prize winners, 64 second-prize winners, 81 third-prize winners, and 29 merit award recipients.
Generous Sponsorship and Meaningful Prizes
Nanan Xingong Machinery Co., Ltd. generously sponsored the prizes for the competition, which included a selection of literary books. After the competition results were announced, the organizing committee curated a personalized book list for each winner, ensuring that the prizes were both meaningful and educational. This thoughtful gesture not only recognized the students' efforts but also encouraged a love for reading and writing.
A Community Effort
The "Xingong Cup" competition was more than just a literary contest; it was a vibrant example of community spirit and the promotion of cultural values. The event was part of Guanqiao Town's broader efforts to foster a culture of reading and writing, while also promoting social customs and civility. It was a practical demonstration of the town's commitment to cultivating a civilized and progressive community.
Honoring Local Talent
In 2018, Lei Zhihua became the first member of the China Writers Association from Nanan. To support her literary endeavors and her work that reflects the spirit of the times and the historical transformations, the Nanan Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department awarded her 20,000 yuan. Rather than using this money for personal gain, Lei Zhihua chose to give back to her hometown by fostering a love for reading and writing among the youth. Her initiative received strong support from the Guanqiao Town Party Committee and government, leading to the inception of this competition. The event aimed to capture the students' perspectives on the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
