China News Network reporter Li Yunhan

"As an international student from countries along the the Belt and Road, I will continue to tell Chinese stories and promote cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries through ceramics," said Mai Di, an international youth of "Generation Z" from Jingdezhen Ceramic University in Egypt.

On the afternoon of 18th, "Generation Z" international youth from Russia, Egypt, Madagascar, Bangladesh, Türkiye, Pakistan and other countries gathered in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, the "Millennium Ceramic Capital", to discuss the inheritance of the millennium ceramic culture.

"This year is my fourth year in Jingdezhen. Through continuous learning, I have gained a deeper understanding of Chinese ceramic culture and a stronger love for ceramics." Maidi, who graduated this year, said that he will continue to stay in China for development and create more blue and white porcelain that combines Arab civilization with Chinese civilization.

"In South Korea, we start with mud, and we need to do everything ourselves, such as pulling, standing, glaze matching, glaze application, and firing. We accumulate a certain amount of work before it can be fully fired in the kiln. The waiting time for firing can sometimes be as long as three or four months." Liu Shiheng, from South Korea, is currently studying for a doctoral degree at Jingdezhen Ceramic University. In his opinion, there are specialized craftsmen in every process of porcelain making in Jingdezhen, and he can develop his own advantages with a focus.

Liu Shiheng said that it is precisely because of this convenience that Jingdezhen has become a "holy land" in the hearts of ceramic artists around the world. At the same time, Jingdezhen uses ceramic culture as its language, combines traditional culture with modern culture, conforms to the networked empowerment of Generation Z, vigorously promotes ceramic culture, and makes more people aware of Jingdezhen.

In Liu Shiheng's view, as international youth under the development of Generation Z, it is even more important to serve as a bridge for international cultural exchange, while boldly innovating and combining digital means with traditional ceramic art and craftsmanship, to deeply integrate the digital economy and ceramic industry, and to continuously promote Jingdezhen ceramic culture.

Alice Maria, an international student from Nanchang University of Aeronautics and Astronautics in Morocco, said that Jingdezhen, known as the "porcelain capital," has aroused the curiosity of young people. As an international youth of Generation Z, she yearns to witness the complex creative process of these exquisite porcelain pieces, which are symbols of cultural heritage and make people want to explore the stories and technologies embedded in each piece of porcelain.

Jingdezhen, located in the northeast of Jiangxi Province, is a world-renowned "millennium porcelain capital" with over 2000 years of history in pottery smelting, over 1000 years of history in official kilns, and over 600 years of history in imperial kilns. It is the only city in the world supported by the ceramic industry for millennium development.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
