This year marks my fifth year of development in Zhuhai. Building a traditional Chinese medicine themed museum on the Zhuhai Traditional Chinese Medicine Street has ignited new sparks for my entrepreneurial journey in Zhuhai. At the Zhuhai Traditional Chinese Medicine Street, the new entrepreneurial story of Macau youth Zeng Wanwen is unfolding in full swing. She has been engaged in the medical and health industry for nearly 15 years. In 2019, she returned to Zhuhai from overseas to start a business and joined the Zhuhai Youth Federation as a member of the Australian District Committee. Through daily life and youth exchange activities, she developed a new entrepreneurial project - Yonghuitang Life Aesthetics Museum, which is committed to the creative transformation and innovative development of traditional Chinese medicine culture. With the "youthful gameplay", she unlocks traditional Chinese medicine and revitalizes traditional Chinese medicine culture in the "city of youth" Zhuhai. A nation will prosper only when its young people thrive. Zhuhai and Macau are geographically close and culturally connected, with close youth exchanges and interactions between the two regions. The Zhuhai Communist Youth League and Youth Federation have taken advantage of the situation and are committed to providing a platform for Hong Kong and Macao youth to develop in the mainland, deepening the construction of mechanisms, exchanges, and service systems, and attracting a large number of Hong Kong and Macao youth to develop in Zhuhai. The story of Zeng Wanwen is just a microcosm of many young people in Macau pursuing their dreams of Zhuhai. On December 20th, Macau will celebrate the 25th anniversary of its return to the motherland by organizing a series of activities to promote the integration of young people from Zhuhai and Macau. Since the beginning of the year, the Zhuhai Communist Youth League and Youth Federation have organized a series of rich and colorful exchange activities to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to the motherland, effectively promoting communication, exchange and integration among young people from Zhuhai, Hong Kong and Macao. It's the first time I've seen such high-tech aerospace equipment and exciting flight performances up close, it's really shocking and I feel proud from the bottom of my heart Wu Xuwen, a member of the Zhuhai Youth Federation Macao District Committee and a young physician at Macau Jinghu Hospital, excitedly said that as the country becomes stronger, Macau youth should start from themselves, constantly strive and improve, and contribute more to the development of the country. The China Aerospace Exhibition is a beautiful city card of Zhuhai, as well as an important platform to showcase the country's aerospace technology strength and carry out global exchanges and cooperation in the aerospace field. During the air show, the Zhuhai Youth Federation, together with multiple units, launched the "Hong Kong and Macao Youth Look at the Motherland" Macao Youth Look at the Air Show Celebration Return Exchange Camp activity, attracting 100 Macao youth representatives to approach the "Great Nation Heavy Machinery" and have face-to-face exchanges with AG600 technology workers, deeply experiencing the strength and glory of China's aviation industry. Prior to this, the Zhuhai Communist Youth League and Youth Federation organized and mobilized youth representatives from Zhuhai and Macau to gather in Macau to hold themed study and exchange activities to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 25th anniversary of Macau's return to the motherland. Through on-site visits to Macau Jinghu Hospital, Macau University of Science and Technology, Macau Youth Development Service Center, and other places, young people from Zhuhai and Macau have experienced the brilliant achievements of various undertakings, especially livelihood services and youth development, in Macau's 25 years since its return to the motherland from a "frontline perspective". We will actively tell the story of China and the successful implementation of 'One Country, Two Systems' in Macau, and unite and connect more Macau youth to enter Hengqin and Zhuhai, and integrate into the overall development of the country Liang Zhihao, Vice Chairman of Zhuhai Youth Federation and President of Zhuhai Macao Youth Exchange Promotion Association, said after attending the event.

Before and after Arbor Day, the Zhuhai Communist Youth League, Youth Federation, and Youth Volunteer Organization invited young people from Hong Kong and Macao to carry out multiple tree planting activities, planting four "Zhuhai Hong Kong Macao Youth Forests" totaling about 15 acres. Hu Zihan, a participant and Young Pioneer from Xiangshan School in Xiangzhou District, teamed up with friends from Macau to plant the "25th Anniversary of Macau's Return to the Motherland Commemorative Youth Forest" and hung a planting sign with her own unique name. She said she hopes that the small tree she planted in Macau will grow into a towering tree when it celebrates the 30th anniversary of its return to the Motherland, and "we can take a picture with it then". In addition, the Zhuhai Communist Youth League and Youth Federation also collaborated with 26 Hong Kong and Macao youth organizations and 9 Hong Kong and Macao universities to carry out the "Hong Kong and Macao Youth Look at the Motherland" Joyful Knowledge Zhuhai Tour and the Zhuhai Hong Kong Macao Youth Talent Study and Exchange Camp. The two major projects held a total of 35 sessions, attracting nearly 1500 Hong Kong and Macao youth to enter Zhuhai, sensing the vitality of mainland development, and guiding a large number of Hong Kong and Macao youth to gather in Zhuhai to support industrial linkage, economic and trade exchanges, people's livelihood integration, and talent collaboration.

In an old-fashioned community on Shuiwan Road in Gongbei, Xiangzhou District, there is an Australian style online black tea restaurant called "Lanji", which attracts a large number of diners to queue up and dine at each meal point. Restaurant owner Qiu Zhihui is a "post-90s" Macau youth who came to Zhuhai with his father to study in his early years. In 2016, he co founded this tea restaurant with partners, hoping to promote Macau's food culture to the mainland. Due to its excellent selection of products and innovative dishes, "Dunji" has opened 8 stores in cities within the Greater Bay Area in 8 years. At Hengqin Macau Youth Entrepreneurship Valley, Nagin Technology Co., Ltd., which focuses on the innovation and industrial application of flexible transparent conductive materials, has successfully achieved industrialization based on the well-established manufacturing industry chain foundation and rich application scenarios in the Greater Bay Area. Lei Zhen, founder of Najin Technology, said, "By connecting the resources of the entire industrial chain in mainland China through Hengqin, there are also rich industrial supporting facilities and low-cost industrial manufacturing environment, which can provide a broad stage for the development of high-tech emerging diversified industries in Macau.

Chen Xianfu, born in Zhuhai, studied in Macau, and returned to Zhuhai to start a business after growing up, has now become the "dream home" of the Greater Bay Area. Four years ago, he moved his helmet manufacturing company to his birthplace - Doumen - to deeply cultivate and develop. Now, the company has more than 100 national patents and its products are exported both domestically and internationally. In 2023, he joined the Zhuhai Youth Development Marine Industry Promotion Association, and "will receive more support and assistance in understanding policies, integrating resources, and exchanging and cooperating, which will help drive more young people in Macau to participate in the 'Millions of Projects'," said Chen Xianfu. On Guishan Island, the Leyu Valley Camp created by Macau youth Tan Xiangming has become a new highlight of the island's development. A few years ago, when he first set foot on Guishan Island, he was attracted by the unique natural scenery and peaceful atmosphere here, and gradually combined his career focus with his own hobbies. Through the matchmaking and support services of the Zhuhai Municipal Party Committee and the Youth Development Marine Industry Promotion Association, and with the joint efforts of young people from Zhuhai and Macao, the 5000 square meter Leyu Valley Camp has made a stunning appearance between the sea and the sky. The camp integrates leisure, entertainment, and red culture education, and has attracted a large number of tourists through various activities such as lawn carnival, valley barbecue, starry sky cinema viewing, island music festival, as well as the Zhuhai Hong Kong Macao Special Food Festival and Hong Kong Macao Special Creative Market. Creating a valley campsite here not only allows people to enjoy the fun of outdoor life, but also provides a window for Hong Kong and Macao youth to understand the mainland and experience national development. I think this is a way for me to realize my personal value and take on social responsibility Tan Xiangming said. In Hongqi Town, Jinwan District, Sun Zhenhong, who focuses on soilless organic vegetable cultivation, invested in a farm covering an area of about 10 acres. The farm can produce about 5 tons of vegetables per month. These vegetables rely on convenient infrastructure and customs clearance services, and can be delivered to Macau consumers' tables within 24 hours after harvesting. I am from Macau, and our partner is from Hong Kong. Our company is a microcosm of cooperation in the Greater Bay Area Sun Zhenhong established the company brand as "Haojihui", symbolizing a "good opportunity" for development.
