As an international Chinese proficiency competition sponsored by the Center for Language Education and Cooperation of the Chinese Ministry of Education, the Chinese Bridge has brought together over 1.8 million young people from more than 160 countries since its launch in 2002. Following the passion for cultural communication, Jinyun has created Youth and Chinese Bridge, a short video series, to capture the touching moments of language exchange.
Under the spotlight of the 5th Chinese Bridge-Chinese Show for Foreign Primary School Students in September 2025, Ma Lele (Leo) from Spain wowed the audience with fluent Chinese. In his childhood, from learning to say “Hello” and “Thank you” by pictures to practicing martial arts and calligraphy, his love for the Chinese language and culture has become the driving force behind his daily persistence. This little fan of Chinese language took the stage of the Chinese Bridge with genuine enthusiasm, showcasing the power of childhood innocence in cross-cultural communication.
