We have come from different Chinese cities such as Weihai, Chengdu, Manzhouli, Linyi, Yakeshi, Ulanqab, and Harbin. But we are all together because we are all students of one group, and Irkutsk is our common city! This is a city where our university and our faculty are located. It’s here that our dreams come true. Here we study together and pursue a common goal together!
We speak different Chinese dialects such as Sichuanese, Linyi, Ulanqab, Northeastern dialects but we understand each other well because we have a common language – Russian! This is our second language after our native language. It is Russian that has united us. We have become a family at BSU!
