The 17th BRICS Summit will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from July 6 to 7. CGTN invited young Brazilians from different age groups and professions to share their understanding of China. In this episode, students from the Confucius Institute at the Federal University of Bahia share the one Chinese phrase they believe everyone must learn.

High school student Antonio Alves Campos Neto thinks "Excuse me, where is this place?" is very useful. Biologist Francisco Sanches Gomes recommends, "Should I scan your code, or will you scan mine?" which is not only handy for adding friends on WeChat, but also useful in various payment situations.
