Before the lecture, a reporter from the News Network conducted a brief interview with Ma Baofeng. He talked with reporters about unforgettable events in his many years of diplomatic work. During the conversation, he highly praised Premier Zhou's excellent diplomatic demeanor and his emphasis on protocol work. He told reporters that our country's central government has always followed the principle of "acting in accordance with international practices while retaining our country's traditions" when implementing concierge services. He also told reporters that the Protocol Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is an organization mainly responsible for making relevant suggestions to national leaders on diplomatic etiquette, and is also responsible for conducting etiquette training for our country’s diplomatic personnel. Due to the particularity and sensitivity of protocol work, small details in protocol work will also play an important role in the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Therefore, only diplomats who have passed the etiquette examination can be sent abroad. Ma Baofeng hoped that students who are interested in diplomatic work would observe and study more and master basic communication etiquette to facilitate their future diplomatic work. He also gave an eight-character message to w88 casino’s Olympic volunteers: “Neither humble nor arrogant, but generous”, which deeply reflected the importance a diplomat attaches to the country’s image.

Although his posture is no longer upright, he is still full of energy, fully reflecting the style of a diplomatic worker. He first briefly explained to us the concept of diplomacy and the relationship between civilization and etiquette, reviewed the etiquette of ancient Chinese civilization, and reviewed the style of China as a "land of etiquette". Next, he detailed the etiquette by topic, reviewed the style of great men, told us the little-known true stories in front of and behind the scenes during the reception of important state guests and overseas visits by three generations of leaders, and interpreted the great wisdom in diplomacy for us. When talking about "China's diplomacy among major powers," he told us in great detail the difficulty and importance of protocol work in its interactions with the United States and the former Soviet Union, and how China's protocol work reflected its gradually stronger national power; on the theme of "Taiwan Issues," Ma Baofeng told us a lot about the importance of protocol in international diplomacy. The subtle events in the past and emergencies made all the students nervous; in "Kidnapping the Olympics", Mr. Ma introduced us to the current crisis our country is encountering in hosting the Olympics, and warned the students to always be wary of the status quo and defend national interests and national honor... Mr. Ma's story won warm applause from the audience. In the process of reviewing these diplomatic events, Mr. Ma has always combined specific historical photos to narrate, including "Hong Kong Return Ceremony", "Charles Meets Jiang Zemin", "200010838_10890

With Mr. Ma’s in-depth explanation, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax. Mr. Ma kindly walked down the podium and invited the students present to demonstrate with him. He showed us the most basic etiquette such as how to hug, how to sit and how to lead distinguished guests. His explanation was vivid and detailed, and all the students listened attentively. What is even more touching is that Mr. Ma’s personal demonstration of kindness and sincerity fully reflects his ardent expectations for contemporary students. Many times when talking about excitement, Mr. Ma would smile and take out his watch to remind himself that time was limited. His expression of hesitation and regret made everyone deeply feel his eagerness and selflessness to share his experience with us. Time and time again, the students present applauded and eagerly asked Mr. Ma not to stop and to continue.
