Today China would like to make its voice heard, by telling true stories. "Storytelling is the best way for international communication," President Xi Jinping said. "We should tell stories about China well and spread China's voice well." Telling Chinese stories warms people's hearts and brings the Chinese people and people of other countries closer. By listening to true stories of China, many people around the world get to know more about China.
First, a good Chinese story should be about the Chinese national spirit and Chinese cultural confidence. Recently, the hot Chinese movie of The Battle at LakeChangjin has been popular with people around the world. The moves tells an amazing historical story: 73 years ago, the People's Volunteer Army (PVA) entered North Korea for battle. Under extreme cold conditions, the troops on the Eastern Front bravery fought the enemy at Lake Changjin. Without the great efforts of the soldiers and party members, such success would never be achieved.
Although Chinese culture has continued for thousands of years, we should find a new way to tell Chinese stories. Li Ziqi, for example, has become famous on TikTok for her short videos. She has received tens of millions of likes (点赞) on the Internet. She spread Chinese culture to the world by showing her daily life in the countryside.
Therefore, as a Chinese, learning how to tell a good Chinese story in English is extremely (极其) important. We should fully understand the Chinese culture and learn English well so that the world will have a better understanding of us.
