In the subsequent speeches, Giti from Iran, a post-doctoral researcher in analytical chemistry at Wenzhou Medical University, shared her indissoluble bond with China. Since she was a child, she often received gifts that were "made in China" from her family. Those gifts made her very interested in China which is thousands of miles away from her hometown. Now she has been working and living in Wenzhou for one and a half years, falling in love with this city more. She hopes that there will be closer co-operation between the two countries in the fields of economy, trade, and culture in the future.

PhD Mahtab, who works in Oujiang Laboratory, is also from Iran. She said that China and Iran have a deep history of cooperation in medicine. The "Huihui Formularies" in Ming Dynasty was a good representative of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Persian traditional medicine. Nowadays, the two countries have also been cooperating very closely in terms of medicines and industrial production equipment. Looking into the future, she believes that there will be more cooperation between the two countries.
