Dear Juniors,
Hello! I am Li Zhongpeng, a 2022 graduate from the Economics Department of Shenzhen MSU-BIT University. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Professor Meng for giving me the opportunity to share a few words with you here.
I still remember my first encounter with Shenzhen MSU-BIT University in 2018, at the temporary campus located at 299 Ru Yi Road. Back then, the campus was small, consisting of only two buildings quietly standing in a corner of the Sports Academy. There were only two batches of undergraduates, a total of just over 200 students from four departments. At that time, Shenzhen MSU-BIT was still in its early stages, and all of us were quietly working hard, determined to achieve something in the future that would bring honor and pride to our alma mater. As a member of the second cohort, from 2018 to 2022, we witnessed the growing prosperity of Shenzhen MSU-BIT, and I feel incredibly proud of my alma mater.
University is where dreams begin. I often reminisce about my time at school and feel grateful for the teachers and classmates I met along the way. Some say that choosing Shenzhen MSU-BIT is like choosing another four years of high school. Here, we faced not only the intensive and multidisciplinary coursework but also had to start learning Russian from scratch and use it to study our major courses. This may sound like an impossible task, one that would make many people hesitate. But, dear juniors, youth is meant for striving, and there are no shortcuts to learning. Only through hard work, and more hard work, can you overcome the seemingly insurmountable challenges. The road may be long and the journey difficult, but with persistence and unwavering effort, you will eventually reap the rewards of your hard work.
Zhongpeng
