At the ceremony, President Zhang Guangjun delivered a speech titled “To undertake the mission with efforts and to lead the future with innovation”. In his speech, he expressed his congratulations and welcome to 2019 postgraduates on behalf of the school. He pointed out that a university should consider academy, diversity and excellence as its eternal pursuit, the cultivation of various elites as its eternal theme, leading national development, promoting human progress in science and technology innovation, and advancement in social civilization as its sacred mission. In the new era, the foundation of colleges and universities lies in its morality establishment and talent cultivation. Only the universities that can cultivate top-notch talents may become the world-class universities. Zhang Guangjun quoted the speech delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping at the 100th anniversary of the May 4th Movement. The youth should be the most energetic and vigorous force in the entire society. The hope of the country and the future of the nation will lie in the youth. Secretary Xi pointed out that the age ranging from 25 to 35 should be deemed as the period of the most creativity and passion in life. Many scientists and famous scholars achieved their success through their discovery and spirit of infinite exploration that have been cultivated during their postgraduate studies. He said that in this new era, there’s never been a time as today when the CPC party and the state demand for higher education so urgently, and desire for scientific knowledge and outstanding talents so intensively. Meanwhile, Secretary Xi also put forward higher requirements on socialism constructors and successors highlighting overall development, morally, intellectually, physically and artistically. To this end, President Zhang put forward the same questions as those raised for the undergraduate students at the opening ceremony. He also expected that the fresh postgraduates could seriously think and always keep in mind: what kind of person do you want to be? what’s your value proposition? how could you embrace the new era and strive in the new era with youth? As he said, everyone is full of unlimited potentials, should set great goals and fight for realizing these goals. Everyone’s dream will come true. The school is committed to cultivating talents and expects that all the students will become the leading talents with patriotism and international field of vision, who can lead the future and benefit the mankind. To this end, he also shared with the students the following four connotations of leading talents: first of all, to have the patriotism that could nourish the country; secondly, to share and expand the international field of vision; thirdly, to lead the future with innovation; and fourthly, to strive for the benefit of mankind.

In the end, Zhang Guangjun emphasized that the mission of the new era would require the generations of young people to make unremitting efforts. He believed that all the students would have a brilliant future in return. He expected all the students to consciously establish and practice the core values of socialism, integrate ourselves into the journey of making contributions to the motherland and the people, and become the pioneers and contributors standing at the forefront of the times. Therefore, we can serve the people and lead the development with our true talents, contribute to the country and benefit the mankind with innovation and creativity, and compose the brilliant chapter of pursing our dreams in the new era and striving in the new journey.
