Entrepreneurial Spirit——the Key of Wuhan City Spirit
Ladies and gentlemen, honored judges
Good evening.
It is my honor to introduce myself tonight. My name is luki huang. To be honest, I’m really keyed up at this moment. Oh, I almost forgot to say that I’m a girl of 100 percent from Guangdong. I am really proud of my hometown which serves as an important national transportation hub and trading port of China. Since I came to Hubei Institute of Fine Arts three years ago and gradually have got well in Wuhan. In the second flowing speech I will share you what is Wu han spirit like in a Guangzhou girl’s eye, and my experience in this extraordinary city. Hope you enjoy this night.
At the beginning, I won’t show you the answer about what is Wuhan spirit, instead, I will start with the Hubei dialect. “Gao mosi”，Standard or not? Well, you guys just told me your heartbreaking answers through your laughs, just as my friends from Wuhan did. Don’t make me wrong. I’m not gonna complain how hard it is to learn Wuhan dialect. Except for gaomosi，another phrase I learned at first is gebanma. Sorry I don’t mean to offense you, and my point is that the dialect people speak in a place kind of reflects the overall character of the people there---Guangdong is more reserved and gentle, while Wuhan is more snappy and open, just like the strong-flavored Wuhan hot dry noodles. I always believe that whether a city is adorable or not, it’s not about the GDP. The charms of a city lie in its street corners and its breaths.
Let us pause here and think for a minute, what is Wuhan spirit? Ok, your guys’answer will be “take the lead and pursue excellence“. Exactly, but in my mind, the key of the spirit is the entrepreneurial spirit. There are no more herd behavior, conformity behavior, but instead, dare to jump out of the box, change the unchangeable, and try the best to be marvels.
Take Li na as an example, As the most successful Asian tennis player ever, Li has become one of the most well-known and marketable athletes in the world. Thanks to her entrepreneurial spirit, The 32-year-old won the Australian Open in January to add to her 2011 French Open title. Li became a national sporting hero in China after becoming Asia's first grand slam singles champion. Li is affectionately called "Big Sister Na" among Chinese communities and is considered a "strong, unbending and unyielding" role model. She has not only become a household name across China but a global icon.
"I'm only a tennis athlete. I just play my tennis. I am just doing my job to try the best." Said Li. I think, this may be the perfect answer about Wuhan spirit, just do the job better and better, take a lead and pursue excellence, with the spirit like innovation, entrepreneurial. I believed, because having the Wuhan spirit, the city, referred to as the "Chicago of China." Will become more and more modernizations, people’s living standard will be drastically improved in very soon of the future.
