The venue of the Universiade is never just a arena for sports competition, but also a youth stage for communication, exchange, and interpretation of friendship among young people around the world. After the men's 100m breaststroke final of the swimming event at the Chengdu Universiade on August 2nd, Qin Haiyang didn't pay much attention to the competition results. He turned around and extended his hands to Lithuanian contestant Sidlauskas and Polish contestant Karusovsky, who were adjacent to the track, to greet each other. Simple actions convey the spirit of the Universiade and the friendship of youth.
