We Talk: Games and beauty, China through the eyes of a Kyrgyz girl

Adel, a student from Kyrgyzstan majoring in international relations at Tsinghua University, has connected with Chinese culture through the popular game "Genshin Impact" and the realm of beauty and fashion. What started as simple curiosity has grown into genuine appreciation, as she has witnessed more and more Central Asian youth being influenced by Chinese trends. For Adel, these cultural products are quietly building emotional bridges among young people. As she puts it, young people around the world are now building "soft yet powerful cultural bridges," and the future of cooperation lies in these small sources of joy – and in the friendships that grow from them.
