Russian and Chinese students have learned from each other and forged sincere friendships during the China-Russia New Media Youth Collaboration event, participants said.
The event ran from Nov 4 to 13 in Wuxi, East China's Jiangsu province, serving as an important part of the third China-Russia Internet Media Forum and New Media Exchange Activities on the 70th Anniversary of the Establishment of China-Russia Diplomatic Relations.
"China Daily and Wuxi gave us such a valuable opportunity to work with Chinese professionals in video production, and this trip taught me how to make better preparation for my future work," said Khachaturian Artem Mikhailovich, a student from Don State Technical University in Russia.
When talking about the most impressive experiences during the trip, the young man mentioned Hongshan Archaeological Museum, Lingshan Mountain - or "the Buddha monument", in his own words - and the Wuxi office of China Daily.
"These places showed us what China is today and what China was yesterday," he said, adding that China nowadays is a fast-developing country with advanced technologies and high-caliber professionals.
