Dear classmates:

Hello everyone! Today, we gather on the coast of the East China Sea. With the combination of the main venue and the branch venue, online and offline, we will hold a 2022 -level undergraduate new student opening ceremony. First of all, on behalf of the school, I have a warm welcome to you to join the Shanghai Jiaotong University! Thanks to your parents and teachers who grow up with you all the way!

Classmates, you are from all over the world and are the best among peers. In high school, you have experienced a special epidemic test. Regardless of whether you listen to or study online or online, you all insist on diligent and hard work, maintain a strong mind, and finally stand out and enter the Jiaotong University. The experience of the "big test" of this epidemic has become your unforgettable memory, which also makes your mentality more mature, stronger will, and more confident and calm in the face of the future.

"The times are different, and youth is in harmony." The growth of each generation is related to the development of the times and the fate of the country. More than 100 years ago, at the time of the danger of the nation, the pursuit of truth and progress, the banner of "scientific saving the country", "industry saving the country" and "transportation to the country" banner, for the rise of the rise of China, and devoted himself to the success. A generation of people actively responded to the party's call and went to all parts of the motherland to build a socialist New China with youth and blood. More than 40 years ago, a generation of reform and opening up was welcomed. In the great process of China, he stood up and chased. The wheels of history are rolling forward. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the construction of a socialist modern power have become the characteristics of the times of China today. Everyone must keep in mind their historical responsibilities, establish Gao Yuan ambitions and goals, and play the foundation of growth more firmly in order Become a generation of history.

After a century of struggle, the Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, rich to strong, and China has become an important force to promote the progress of the world, and it is increasingly closer to the center of the world stage. my country is in a critical period to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and the realization of dreams requires the self -reliance of the country and individuals than ever. At the same time, the world's science and technology accelerate the development, and a new round of scientific and technological revolution represented by informatization and intelligence is rapidly promoting the progress of human society. Thirty years from now to the middle of this century, you will use your arms to carry your arms of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and live up to the historical mission given by the times!

Looking at the world, we are facing the external environment that is more complex and changeable, more difficult and challenging. The transformation has evolved in a hundred years, the world structure is fierce and turbulent, and the most serious infectious diseases in the past century have greatly threatened people's lives and health. The world economy has fallen into decline, and global transportation and international exchanges have been impacted. The new coronary pneumonia's epidemic has profoundly changed human society. We must accelerate the research of major global infectious diseases, promote the deep integration of digital and health, and jointly respond to governance challenges and promote the transformation of urban intelligence. This is an unavoidable problem in all countries in the world. The propositions that must be solved and must be resolved.

Classmates, in the background of a magnificent era, everyone will open a new chapter in life as adults, focusing on "ambitions high, self -reliance and self -reliance", Secretary Yang Zhenbin and I want to give you three suggestions:

The first is to adapt to environmental changes and adults in independence and independence. The new environment brings new requirements. Different from high schools, everyone needs to develop independent personality in active inquiry to shape a better self. Shanghai Jiaotong University is a university hall with complete disciplines, strong teachers, rich learning resources, and high degree of internationalization, which provides good conditions for everyone to grow up. When you come here, everyone must adapt to the transformation of identity characters, draw nutrients in the century -old context of the Jiaotong University, strengthen faith and belief, cultivate morality, and enhance the realm of life. Active posture and stronger issues are pursuing truth and exploring new knowledge; we must also adapt to the change of life rhythm, and more maturely face various practical problems such as academic pressure, interpersonal communication, and personal emotions, and properly arrange your own learning life. Classmates, I hope that everyone will quickly integrate into the Jiaotong University, do a good job of self -management, develop good habits, run the first stick of college life, and make themselves potential to become outstanding talents.

The second is to lay a solid foundation and grow in the challenge. The Jiaotong University has always attached great importance to the basic courses of students. "High starting point, thick foundation, strict requirements, practice, and innovation" are the excellent traditions formed by the school for more than 120 years. Your seniors and sisters nicknamed some difficult basic courses and professional courses as "Overlord Class", and it was these "overlord lessons" that became the basis for their lifelong benefits, so that they not only mastered solid mathematical knowledge and professional knowledge , I have exercised the excellent basic skills and rigorous thinking skills, and also have the confidence that dares to challenge self and courage to overcome difficulties. For example, Jiaotongyuan College attaches great importance to the basic courses of students' mathematics, physics, etc., encourages students to study, discuss exchanges hard, and continuously explore the laws and laws of things, and challenge the front -edge issues. Nearly 70%of graduates are directly studying doctors every year. Bachelor of Science. Classmates, only in the basic courses, practice solid professional skills in the practice of practicing, and inspire the passion and love for science in the exploration of unknown, can we make yourself strong, tenacious to create more breakthroughs, and keep picking up the level. And gap up. The third is to establish a will to report to the country and achieve talents in self -reliance. The university is a spiritual highland. As a big student, you cannot just be satisfied with the smooth graduation and find a decent job. Instead, you should strive for the "first -class" character in the arms of the family and the country. Waiting for "career and becoming" first -class "talent. Academician Zhu Yingfu, an undergraduate and 1966 graduate alumni of our school, was born in the old China with poverty and weakness. The three generations of destroyers have achieved the technological leap development of the New China ship. However, he did not meet the achievements that had been achieved. After the year of the flowers, he assumed the heavy responsibility. He served as the first chief designer of my country's aircraft carrier and led a large team consisting of hundreds of units and thousands of people. The aircraft carrier, Liaoning, created the history of China's own aircraft carrier. Students, I hope that, like Zhu Yingfu, who has entered college, we have combined personal growth with national needs since entering college, concentrated on professional learning, continuously pursuing excellence, and realizing life value in the motherland.

Self -winning is strong, and self -strong. As the freshest blood among the adults, when you were born in the course of the rise of the country, you grew up in the journey of national rejuvenation. Your youth pulse has always resonated the same frequency as the pulse of the times. Only by grasping your own learning life with a more aggressive attitude can you always clear the direction and develop the realm of life; only by challenging the courage and perseverance of self -learning, can you continue to explore scientific mystery and promote social progress; With the belief of being awarded the country with self -reliance to the country's mission, in order to write a wonderful life worthy of the times in the wider world.

Classmates, Jiaotong will become a common identity identity of your life, pride, and struggle for your life. I hope that you will adhere to the school motto of "Drinking Water Source, Patriotic and Rong School", leaving you a youth mark that belongs to you at the Jiaotong University, and establish your outstanding merit on the road of national rejuvenation!

thank you all!
