The venue was lush and fragrant: fresh zongzi leaves, glutinous rice, candied dates and other ingredients were neatly arranged and fully prepared. Before the event began, staff gave on-site demonstrations of the standard wrapping technique — from folding the leaves, filling them with glutinous rice and stuffing, to wrapping the leaves tightly and tying them with cotton string — guiding everyone step by step, so that even complete beginners could quickly get the hang of it.

As the starting signal sounded, the zongzi-making contest officially kicked off. Contestants divided up the work and worked with practiced skill, each showing off their own techniques. With fingers flying, plump, neatly shaped zongzi with distinct corners quickly took form one after another. Laughter and chatter filled the air: some raced against the clock for speed and efficiency, while others took their time, carefully crafting exquisite zongzi. Everyone exchanged tips and helped one another. Colleagues who usually work side by side became Dragon Boat Festival craftspeople, and the scene brimmed with warmth and human connection.

There was no fierce competition, only warm companionship; no strict rivalry, only shared joy. The zongzi — each unique in shape — carried the heritage of traditional culture and the company's festive care for every employee.

Beyond the hands-on zongzi making, this event featured a special rapid-fire Dragon Boat Festival quiz, allowing everyone to learn about the festival's history through lighthearted play. Questions covered a wide range of topics — the origins of the festival, folk customs, traditional poetry, legends, and regional traditions — balancing fun with knowledge

The quiz session was lively and intense. The moment the host finished speaking, employees raised their hands to answer, reacting swiftly and answering fluently. From the historical tale of Qu Yuan to the customs and meanings behind hanging mugwort, wearing sachets, and racing dragon boats; from classic festival poems to the difference in taste between northern and southern zongzi — everyone participated enthusiastically and interacted actively, filling in their knowledge gaps through the questions and answers, and gaining a deeper understanding of the profound cultural heritage behind the Dragon Boat Festival. The event broke the mold of single-dimensional entertainment, achieving "learning through play, insight through learning."

Every colleague who answered correctly received an exquisite little festival gift. Applause was unending and the fun was everywhere, further igniting everyone's enthusiasm and bringing traditional culture into employees' daily lives.

A single zongzi leaf wraps the warmth of the world; a single event unites the hearts of the team. This Dragon Boat Festival activity not only let everyone experience the joy of traditional folk customs firsthand and feel the unique charm of China's intangible cultural heritage up close, but also brought colleagues closer together through relaxed, enjoyable interaction, eased work fatigue, and further strengthened team cohesion and a sense of collective belonging.

The gentle breeze of the festival carries deep love for home and country. Looking ahead, the company will continue to organize more diverse cultural and sports activities that balance cultural heritage with employee care, building a warmer, more vibrant, and more culturally rich workplace — accompanying all employees as they balance work and leisure and move forward together, embracing the next journey with greater passion and a higher spirit, and working hand in hand to create new achievements for the company!

Finally, we wish all employees and their families a peaceful Dragon Boat Festival, freedom from worry through the years, family happiness, and success in all things.
