Through this experience, I will say this internship is amazing. I saw the cultural exchange between Hong Kong and Putuo, and I even joined in the whole process in person. Supervisors and colleagues are willing to accept new ideas, and pursue efficiency. The established rules and regulations maintain the unique culture of the company, which is rare in the workplace. The reliable impression of the people of Putuo is deeply imprinted in my mind. I dare say this is a wonderful journey.

The trip to Shanghai took me to know more about this metropoli through my eyes. This is a big city that is completely different from Hong Kong in terms of culture, lifestyle, and language. If Hong Kong is an experienced and stable veteran, then Shanghai is a rising star. With the development of the economy, the relationship between the two of them will only become closer and closer, and I believe the impact will be good.

People are an important part of a city. Shanghai is not just a place where people come from different parts of the country. I also witnessed various people. There are kind hotel room aunts, uncle who sells steamed buns next to the hotel, and sister at the front desk of the company, which is my impression of Shanghai. They are forming a unique memory for me. The most important thing is that the other interns have been helping each other and exploring this big city together during these 53 days. They have been going out on weekends and chatting about work after work, which has helped me no longer feel lost. Institutional staff take care of us when we are sick and actively organize visiting activities, which is our strong support. Strange places and people, the journey from zero to one, in just two months, is a lifelong experience that can be remembered.
