At the theme activity of "staying in Shenzhen for the new year is also wonderful - Shenzhen and Hong Kong Youth meet on New Year's Eve" held in Shekou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong Youth Yang cuier said she felt a strong flavor of the new year.

Shekou on the other side is the village where her parents grew up. For her, her birthplace and ancestral home have a common name, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Dawan district. "When I was a child, I often followed my parents back to Shekou to pay New Year's greetings.

Yang cuier and her colleagues went back and forth to various departments in Shenzhen for coordination and discussion for many times, and finally successfully "organized groups" to vaccinate with the support of the municipal and district governments. "Shekou has my deepest homesickness, and the rapid development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Bay area also gives me unlimited opportunities. I hope to use my meager strength to make a contribution to the exchanges between Hong Kong and Shenzhen." Yang cuier said. In recent years, with the promotion of the integrated development of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, more and more young people in Hong Kong have gone north to start businesses and pursue their life dreams; The epidemic situation in the past two years has also made many of them choose to stay in Shenzhen for the new year when the traditional Spring Festival comes.

The company's main business is software development, three-dimensional digital image design, etc. "My parents came to Shenzhen for development very early, and their mahogany furniture industry developed very smoothly. I also hope to try it in Dawan district. After all, there are many national policy support and unlimited market opportunities here." Dai Jie told reporters that if you settle in this Hong Kong and Macao Youth Innovation and entrepreneurship center, you can get two years of free water, electricity and rent, which is urgently needed support for start-ups. During the Spring Festival this year, Dai Jie stayed in Shenzhen with her parents, while her brother and sister spent the new year in Hong Kong. On New Year's Eve, the family greeted each other through video and shared their ups and downs of the year. "I hope the epidemic will pass quickly, so that all separated families can get together better and Dawan district can integrate better." Dai Jie said.
