The 31st Summer World University Games kicked off this week in Chengdu, China, with athletes from over 150 countries and regions bringing electrifying energy to the global stage. But beyond the roaring crowds and medal quests, another group is stealing hearts: 18,000+ local volunteers working tirelessly behind the scenes. 💪
In an exclusive chat with NewspaperAmigo, volunteers shared their hopes for the event. 🗣️ \\"We're not just helping—we're showing the world the warmth and passion of Chinese youth,\\" said Li Wei, a Sichuan University student guiding visitors. From translating for international teams to coordinating logistics, these Gen-Z heroes are bridging cultures with every high-five and smile. ✨
As night falls over the 'Land of Abundance,' one message rings clear: Sports unite us all—and these volunteers are writing Chengdu's new chapter of global friendship. 🌏🔥
