Walking into the basketball hall of the World Expo Huangpu Sports Park, Li Liangyi, a girl from Taiwan Yang-Ming Jiaotong University, stopped in her tracks while looking at the lively sports scene. "When I came to the mainland with Mr. Ma Ying-jeou in April this year, I met a mainland classmate. We both like table tennis. He likes Fan Zhendong and I like Lin Yunru. During the Olympics, we have been discussing the game at night." She told reporters, Sports is natural and simple, and it is a good way to make friends.
html On the afternoon of August 23, the opening ceremony of the "2024 Cross-Strait Youth Vitality Carnival" was held at the World Expo Huangpu Sports Park. More than a thousand Taiwanese youths came to Shanghai from the island to participate in the event. Qiu Kaiming, deputy director of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, and Chen Tong, member of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, attended the event. In the next three days, more than 3,000 young people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait will participate in 13 activities including sports, culture, and music, and participate in a spiritually connected youth appointment."The carnival provides an interactive platform for young people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, promoting mutual understanding and friendship in common interests and hobbies, and creating opportunities for mutual understanding and emotional connection." said Wang Xiaodi, a young researcher at the Northeast Asia Research Center of Shanghai University of Political Science and Law.

"The mainland welcomes you from the bottom of my heart"
"Chen Yuxi is here!" The basketball stadium suddenly burst into cheers, and Taiwanese youths rushed forward. "Hello, friends and relatives in Taiwan!" Chen Yuxi, the Paris Olympic diving champion, smiled and waved to everyone, and accepted all Taiwanese youth requests for photos. A Taiwanese girl kept taking pictures with her and told reporters excitedly: "I could only see her in front of the screen before, but I never thought she was even more beautiful than in front of the camera!"
Fun sports are being held here - pot throwing, long rope jumping, Spinning bikes, squats, sit-ups... Taiwanese youths chose their favorite activities to participate in, and Shanghai youths assisted beside them. Just after the Olympic Games, sports craze has emerged in Taiwan and mainland China. Young people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are talking, laughing and taking photos together. They feel less like new friends meeting for the first time and more like old friends reunited after a long absence.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Xucen, CEO of the Ma Ying-jeou Foundation, was very emotional: "When I came here, I told the young people in Taiwan that the mainland is friendly to you and welcomes you with open arms from the bottom of my heart. Young friends from Taiwan come to the mainland , I didn’t encounter any problems, just like going home.” This time, he led a group of 22 students from Taiwan’s “Dajiu Academy” to participate in the opening ceremony. “Young people will have a different perspective if they come to the mainland more.”
This is the first time that Chen Wencheng, a member of the "Dajiu Academy" and a young student from Kaohsiung, came to Shanghai. He defined the trip as a "root-seeking" trip. "Not only did he want to see the high-rise buildings and the beautiful scenery of the Pujiang River, but he also wanted to find culture and history. For example, I read about Lu Xun in a history textbook and wanted to visit his memorial hall in Shanghai."
Although many Taiwanese young people came to Shanghai for the first time, as a member of the Shanghai reception team, Wang Xiaodi found that they were no strangers to this city. He noticed that Xiaohongshu has great influence among Taiwanese girls. Their understanding and expectations of Shanghai originate from this, and they also hope to copy the various Shanghai travel guides on it. "It can be seen that through network connections, the relationship between young people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is The distance is not that far”.
Shanghai is a platform for chasing and building dreams.
Walking from the basketball hall to the badminton hall, one side of the bustling hall is a service booth, which provides Taiwanese youth with policy advice on studying in Shanghai, applying for residence permits, and entrepreneurship and employment.
Many Taiwanese young people gathered in front of the Shanghai Bank booth, and most of them asked about convenient payment. "Everyone is welcome to use the 'Huapay' travel pass card." Xu Ye, president of the Huangpu Branch of the Bank of Shanghai, introduced that it is embedded in payment channels such as Alipay, WeChat and UnionPay Cloud QuickPass in the form of a mini program. After binding overseas bank cards, it can be used at any time. Use instant recharge.

"As a Taiwanese flight attendant, I will share with you interesting experiences at work, hoping to give Taiwanese young people more help in choosing a career." She told the curious Taiwanese young people, "The company has many Taiwanese captains and flight attendants working together with mainland colleagues. As close as a family.”
Lin Yuzhen, general manager of Southeast Travel Agency, a Taiwan-funded enterprise, brought internship positions such as new media operations and tourism business housekeepers. "Taiwanese youth still have certain advantages in design creativity and marketing. I hope they can come to the mainland from Taiwan to participate in internships and experience different markets and workplaces." He said frankly that he hopes to give Taiwanese youth more choices, "If they finally choose to return to China Taiwan’s development is no problem; I welcome staying and working in Shanghai.”
Now that things have come full circle, Taiwanese second-year graduate student Li Liangyi has gained a lot. He not only understands Shanghai’s recruitment market, but also knows the policy support provided by Shanghai for Taiwanese youth. "I am majoring in communication. I believe that there will be many opportunities to engage in public relations, marketing, media and other industries in mainland China. Coming to Shanghai for development will definitely be one of my future options."
