Visitors from China

On November 23rd, away from the hustle of Black Friday, a warm meeting took place in the Pathfoot Buiding at the University of Stirling. This week we were visited by a delegation comprising members of the management team of Jiangsu Broadcasting Corporation (JSBC), the third biggest television network in China as well as Nanjing Yunbao Science and Technology Company Limited and Shiqiu Film Studio Company Limited.

Our guests from Jiangsu Broadcasting Corporation, aiming to build a bridge between students in our class with our possible future employer JSBC, provided us with the opportunity to showcase our work at the University of Stirling. Participants from JSBC included: Mr. Jiang Xiaoping, vice president and deputy general manager of JSBC; Mr. Liu Wenming, deputy director of publicity management department of JSBC; Mr. Shao Zhong, general manager of Nanjing Yunbao Science and Technology Company Limited and deputy general manager of Shiqiu Film Studio Company Limited; Mr. Yang Shu, general manager of Omnijoi Media Corporation Company Limited; Ms. Wei Li, deputy general manager of Golden Dreams Media and Communications (UK) Company Limited.

It has been two months since the Nanjing University Exchange Project 2018 started, during which we have learned a lot from all the activities and lectures we have had, and we have also achieved a lot.

In the very beginning of the meeting, programme co-ordinator Damyan Kachulski first warmly welcomed all the guests from JSBC and briefly introduced the class members and the programme. To help our guests better understand the Exchange Project and what we have done here, we carefully prepared a presentation. Erica showed the website and briefly introduced different kinds of lectures we have attended. To show our work, Maggie later displayed articles we wrote and the fancy videos we produced, which had captured everybody’s attention. Angel delivered a short speech on the culture of drama in UK, following by Coco’s introduction to her fantastic 3D printing models.

In the end of the meeting, Erica, our class representative, on behalf of the class, sincerely expressed our gratitude for the support and help from JSBC and University of Stirling.  Mr. Jiang Xiaoping from JSBC also appreciated the effort we made and the teamwork we shown over the course of our programme. He encouraged us to apply for internships with JSBC and gave us practical advice on how to prepare for our future careers.

Mr. Jiang Xiaoping, vice president and deputy general manager of JSBC

After the meeting ended, we had a chance to talk to our guests and share more details of our time at the University as well as our future plans.
