With the sunrise, the flag-rising ceremony officially began. The National Flag Guards, holding their heads high, escorted the national flag to the platform and raised it with the sonorous March of the Volunteers. With the league emblems on their chests glinting in the sunlight, the students watched the raising flag and sang:“ Sing a song praise for our dear motherland, Toward prosperity and a strong nation...” The familiar melody, accompanied by the waving small national flags, showed their best wishes for the motherland.

Zhang Wenshuo, a student of Class 2017, majoring in Chemistry, said: “Even though watching across the screen, I can feel the warm and solemn atmosphere there. When the military parade in the Founding Ceremony of the People’s Republic of China was held 1949, China had just overthrown “ the three mountains”, with a thousand things waiting to be done and backward weapons and military supplies. But now, we have advanced weapons and military supplies, well-trained soldiers and military officers, a strong country and a prosperous nation. At this exciting moment, I couldn’t be more proud of being a Chinese citizen. At the same time, I see the mission and responsibility which I should shoulder as an active applicant for CPC membership and a member of the Youth League Committee. In the future study and work, I will try my best to do everything, constantly forge ahead with an innovative mind, inherit and carry forward the spirit of patriotism and strive to be a model youth in new era.”
