青春的梦想在中国启航

［ 比利时 ］ 柏泰 东华大学

18岁那年，我第一次去北京，那时我对中国知之甚少。北京之旅让我爱上了中国，我被这个国家的发展速度和活力吸引了。在北京的几天，我感觉中国就像一颗冉冉升起的新星，有无限的机会和可能。汉字、中国人民、中华文化和中国的经济发展都深深吸引着我。“为什么不踏上这片土地开始我的筑梦之路呢？”我问自己。于是，20岁那年，我决定来到中国求学。

2011年，我来到了东华大学国际贸易专业，班里的老师和学生来自世界各地，在与同学们的朝夕相处中，我极大提升了自己的跨文化交际能力，建立了广泛的人脉，为今后的工作打下了很好的基础。在上创新创业和案例整合这两门课时，老师点亮了我的创业思维，并鼓励我将课程中所做的商业计划付诸实践。毕业后，我很快找到了合伙人创立了自己的公司ICL（Integrate Chinese Life，“融入中国生活”公司）。正是在东华大学留学期间老师们的专业教学，让我获取了专业的国际贸易知识，激发了我的创业热情，最终成功运营了公司。

很多人来之前对中国并不熟悉，未知带来的挑战让人望而却步，错失与中国结缘的机会，我想帮助年轻、有志向和有中国情结的外国人克服他们在中国遇到的诸多挑战，于是我和朋友尼可一起开办了ICL公司，为两国的政府、商业机构和大学之间的教育合作提供支持。创业的这几年我往返于瑞士和中国，与年轻人一同工作，为年轻人的个人发展和职业发展创造机会，同时还享受着旅行的快乐。工作反而成了生活的调味剂，这样的生活让我感觉非常舒适。这或许就是成为企业家，拥有自己的公司的最大好处吧。我可以掌控自己想做的事情，有很高的自由度，但我也深知肩上责任重大，每一步选择都需要充分和反复的考虑。

Dream of Youth Sets Sail in China

［Belgium］ Bastien Beno?t S． Dumont， Donghua University

When I was 18， I travelled to Beijing for the first time． I knew little about China at that time． I fell in love with China after the first trip to Beijing and I got deeply attracted by its rapid development and booming vitality． To me， China was a rising star with infinite possibilities and opportunities． Chinese characters， Chinese people， Chinese culture and its economic development all became infinite attraction to me． “Why can’t I go to China and start pursuing my dreams？” I asked myself． Therefore， I came to China for study when I was 20．

In 2011， I was enrolled in Donghua University and majored in International Trade． My teachers and classmates came from all over the world． I greatly improved my cross－cultural communication capabilities and built extensive social networking， which laid a solid foundation for my later work． I gained a lot especially in two courses， Entrepreneurship and Innovation and Commercial Cases Integration． Teachers of the two courses inspired my entrepreneur dream． They encouraged me to bring my business plans for the courses into real practice． I found partners and started my own business very soon after graduation． I founded my own company， ICL （Integrate Chinese Life）． The professional expertise from professors at Donghua University had equipped me with professional international trade knowledge and inspired my entrepreneurship to successfully start my own company and manage it successfully until now．

Many foreigners do not know much about China before they come． Challenges of unknown future stop their feet onto the land of China． I want to help those young and ambitious foreigners who love China to overcome their challenges in China． Therefore， I started ICL with my friend Nick to provide support for educational cooperation between governments， business organizations and universities in the two countries． I frequently travel between Switzerland and China， working with young people and creating opportunities for the personal and career development of the youth． I enjoy travelling and work has become a pleasure for me． I enjoy my lifestyle． One of the greatest benefits of becoming an entrepreneur and managing my own business is that I can control what I am doing and what I want to do with much freedom． I also know the great responsibility upon my shoulders as an entrepreneur． I always size up situations and make each choice after due and careful assessment．

To make more foreigners know better about China and come to China， I planned to film a short video with my colleagues， introducing China to the world． We demonstrated our ideas to Swissnex in China． Deeply moved by our visions， they not only provided economic support but also invited French director Robin Mahieux to direct the filming． Mr． Mahieux came from France， travelled across China， captured all exciting moments， and shared the beauty of China with the whole world． A French electronic musician， deeply touched by the Chinese charm in the film， made original dubbing for it． The video，CHINA BEYOND BELIEF， took us five months to complete and was published in the celebration ceremony of Chinese Spring Festival in Lausanne， Switzerland． More foreigners get to know the beauty of living in China through this video and their interests to come to China and experience Chinese culture are inspired． The video has become a hit and a Chinese airline bought this video for advertising so as to make more international tourists know more about China． What made me more proud was that I won the Prize of Entrepreneur Outstanding Achievements for Sino－Swiss Business Awards in 2017 and was interviewed by National Television of Switzerland． Now I am making efforts to develop an international youth tourist platform to promote the development of tourism as my future mission．

Study in China has ignited my entrepreneur passion and living in China allows me an easy and comfortable life． The huge market of China provides my start－up company with broad development space． As a international student， also as a partner， I hold deep gratitude toward China which has given me everything I need to start my business， and I will develop my career with utmost efforts and facilitate the friendly exchange between China and Switzerland to return all the goodness to the society．
