The picture shows students watching the exhibition. The "2022 China Philatelic Culture Hong Kong Campus Exhibition", co sponsored by China Post Hong Kong Limited and Hong Kong East West Fund Co., Ltd., recently kicked off at the China Foundation Middle School in Xiaoxi Bay, Hong Kong. This is the first time since Hong Kong's return to the motherland 25 years ago that China Post has walked into Hong Kong's campus to hold a large-scale stamp exhibition. "These exquisite stamps are a cultural imprint recording the historical development of the motherland and Hong Kong, with far-reaching significance." At the exhibition site, Wu Shuqing, a former member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the founding supervisor of the China Foundation High School, sighed with emotion. As the initiator and planner of this philatelic exhibition, Wu Shuqing, who is over 70 years old, has devoted himself wholeheartedly to "hoping that the young generation in Hong Kong can perceive the profound heritage of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation within a square inch." In the spacious auditorium of the China Foundation Middle School, 30 stamp exhibition boards are arranged neatly, and nearly 1000 stamps and commemorative covers of different sizes are stuck. From the Revolution of 1911 to the return of Hong Kong, from the Great Wall to the Chinese Zodiac, from the Beijing Olympic Games to aerospace technology... This rare and precious stamp, which is only a few centimeters square, has become old and yellow, while some are covered with postmarks. None of it is a microcosm of history, witnessing the changes of time. The students in groups watched and discussed the contents of the stamps in a warm atmosphere. "Look, look, this is the stamp of Liu Zige, the women's 200m butterfly champion of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games!" In front of the exhibition board, Ye Xiwen, a freshman student of the China Foundation Middle School, greeted her partners excitedly. She loved swimming since she was a child, and she deeply sympathized with this stamp. The full set of 51 commemorative stamps for Beijing Olympic "gold medal athletes" is also one of Xi Wen's favorite exhibits. "These stamps show the heroism and style of sports athletes. Their fighting spirit inspires me, and I hope that one day I can win glory for the country." Wu Kailin, a freshman, is full of interest in stamps with the theme of China's aerospace, Curious, she stopped for a long time in front of the "Shenzhou V" series and the stamps printed with the signature of Yang Liwei, the first Chinese astronaut. "The Chinese dream of manned flight came true in 2003, when I was not born," Wu Kailin told reporters seriously, "Through these historical stamps, I can understand the development process of national aerospace technology, and feel that my understanding of the motherland has deepened." "These stamps are rich in themes and detailed in content, which can help children grow in knowledge and cultivate their sentiments." Chen Dacan, the general manager of China Post Hong Kong Co., Ltd., said frankly that China Post did a lot of research work in preparing for the exhibition, Specially selected theme stamps that are both educational and interesting, "Hong Kong teenagers are expected to have an insight into the magnificent development and changes of New China, feel the heroic feelings of overlooking the world, and further enhance the sense of belonging and pride of the Chinese nation." When talking with reporters about his most impressive stamp products, Chen Dacan did not hesitate to say, "It must be the theme stamp of the Chinese zodiac". He said that the Chinese Zodiac is the most widely spread and far-reaching symbol of Chinese folk culture in the world, and stamps are the most intuitive carrier of the Chinese zodiac culture. "Look, here are stamps of the Year of the Rooster from all over the world, including Asia, North America, Europe, Oceania and even Africa
