Speech by Sun Qingkai, Chairman of the Fujian Baisheng Association in the United States
Sun Qing, the founding chairman of the Fujian Baisheng Fellow Association in the United States, delivered a welcome speech: Standing here, looking at the familiar faces of everyone, my heart is filled with gratitude and reluctance. Firstly, on behalf of the previous council of the hometown association, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to all the fellow villagers who have shown concern and support for the work of the association!
More than two years ago, I took on the responsibility of president with enthusiasm and trepidation. During these days, we have experienced storms together and also gained warmth - when fellow villagers are in difficulty, everyone does not hesitate to lend a helping hand; We work together and have no regrets for the education of our hometown. These little moments are precious memories shared by us, the 'Yum!' people.
This experience has made me deeply appreciate the weight of "responsibility" and the warmth of "hometown sentiment". The hometown association is not a stage for me alone, but a common home for all Baisheng wanderers. Thank you to every member of the council for their dedication, and thank you to every fellow villager for their participation. Your trust is the driving force behind my progress.
Resignation is not about leaving, but about accompanying everyone in a different way. I will continue to support the hometown association and cheer for the new president and the new council.
Today, I am pleased to hand over the baton to the excellent new president, Mr. Chi Maobin. He is young and promising, loves his hometown, and has a strong sense of responsibility. I believe that under his leadership, the Baisheng Fellow Association will be more united and dynamic! Let's give a warm round of applause to welcome President Chi Maobin to the stage!
Finally, I wish the Baisheng Fellow Association continued success and prosperity, becoming a warm harbor for travelers; Wishing my hometown prosperity and flourishing; I also wish everyone present good health, happy families, and smooth careers!
Welcome Speech by Chi Maobin, President of the Fujian Baisheng Association in the United States
Good evening everyone! Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend our second Fujian Baisheng Fellow Association Celebration. Your arrival has made this grand event even more glorious, and has also given us great support and encouragement.
Our Baisheng Fellow Association's current scale is inseparable from our founding chairpersons, Sun Qingkai and Sun Yiwen. They, with foresight and deep affection for their hometown, united their fellow villagers, gathered strength, and built a common 'home' for us. Their contributions will always be remembered in our hearts. Here, let us give the warmest applause and express our highest respect and sincere gratitude to the two founding chairpersons!
We come from the same place, with the same local accent and flavor. Our hometown association is not only an organization, but also a big family that we can rely on and warm our hearts. Our most precious mission here is to support and support each other, take care of each other, and pass on this rural sentiment.
Thank you to all the fellow villagers for their trust in electing me as the second president. I am deeply honored and feel a great sense of responsibility. In my future term, I will definitely fulfill my duties, humbly learn, and turn everyone's trust into motivation to serve my fellow villagers.
We will continue to strengthen our connections, organize meaningful activities, help our fellow villagers, unite them, and make the hometown association a truly reliable home for us.
I believe that under the guidance of the founding chairman and senior members, and with the support of all directors and members, as long as we work together and make steady progress, we will definitely be able to build our hometown association better and warmer.
Finally, I sincerely wish everyone good health, prosperous careers, and happy families. Thank you all!
Consul of the Chinese Consulate General in New York delivers a speech to Yutao
The Consul General of the Consulate General in New York delivered a speech to Yutao: I am delighted to attend the third anniversary celebration of the establishment of the Baisheng Association with Consul Rongding tonight. I would like to express my sincere greetings to all the members and overseas Chinese present. Since its establishment, the Baisheng Association has loved its homeland, united with its fellow countrymen, committed to the friendship between China and the United States, and has done many practical and good deeds for the well-being of overseas Chinese, the stable, healthy and sustainable development of Sino US relations, and the development and construction of its hometown. It has demonstrated the good spiritual outlook of overseas Chinese. Here, I would like to pay tribute to the positive contributions made by the Baisheng Fellow Association. Yesterday, the two heads of state spoke on the phone again. China and the United States should achieve mutual success and prosperity, maintain the current development momentum, adhere to the correct direction, uphold an attitude of equality, respect and mutual benefit, open up new cooperation space for China US relations, and better benefit the people of both countries and the world.
The important meeting and phone call between the two heads of state have given reassurance to both China and the United States, as well as the world, and created better conditions for our overseas Chinese living in the United States to work and live locally. I hope that the Baisheng Fellow Association will continue to strive for excellence, provide better services to our fellow villagers, connect our ancestral home country with the United States, and build a better overseas Chinese community, making greater contributions to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The Consulate General will accompany you all the way, hand in hand, and wholeheartedly provide high-quality consular services for the vast number of overseas Chinese, to ensure that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment in the local area, and to provide support and assistance in solving problems. Finally, I wish the Fujian Baisheng Fellow Association in the United States a prosperous and thriving event, and wish all compatriots and friends present good health and all the best!
Neil, Chairman of the General Chennault Museum Ms. Gekaiwei delivered a speech
Granddaughter of General Chenault of the American Flying Tigers N ell Speech: I would like to thank Peter Sun for inviting me here to talk about my grandfather, General Claire Chenault. I am honored to have met so many outstanding individuals, and I look forward to working with you on future projects.
For many years, I have been imparting the history and heritage of my grandfather General Claire Chenault and his Flying Tigers. The event of my grandfather's arrival in 1937 is as important now as it was eight or nine years ago. The experience he taught us is that cultural differences, political factions, or ideologies should not prevent us from recognizing our humanity and serving our fellow citizens.
I would like to invite the Fujian Baisheng Fellow Association in the United States to collaborate with the General Claire Chennault Foundation to work towards our common goals. Through the Chennault Foundation, we have helped establish the Chennault Aviation Academy, where students from both the United States and China can come together to learn about our shared history. The foundation is one of the founding members of the International Association of World War II Museums. Our exhibition at the museum is a bilingual exhibition, so that people and Americans can fully understand this period of history. We hope to establish a new General Chennault Flying Tiger Academy where the peoples of the two countries can meet in a mutually inclusive place. In General Chenault's hometown. Thank you again, I hope we can change our world today.

On behalf of all colleagues in the hometown association, I would like to extend our warmest welcome and sincerest gratitude to all the guests who have attended this grand event!
Thank you for the plaques, flower baskets, and commendations you have sent, and thank you for the congratulatory letters, telegrams, and messages from other units. Special thanks to the Consul of the Chinese Consulate for his visit, and heartfelt thanks to our partner, Ms. Nell Calloway, Chairman of the General Chennault Foundation, who came from out of state to attend tonight's grand event. At the same time, I would like to express my highest respect to all colleagues who have worked hard for the smooth convening of this networking event!
The second networking event is not only a celebration to review the past and share gains, but also a starting point to look forward to the future and gather consensus. We will always adhere to the principle of "uniting fellow villagers and cherishing our homeland", gather the wisdom of the elderly, middle-aged, and young generations, share local feelings, seek common development, and inject new vitality into the future purchase of permanent clubs!
Let us join hands and interpret the spirit of "unity and gratitude" through actions, and together write a more brilliant tomorrow for the Baisheng Fellow Association!
