We should strive to explore our highest potential and make the music for the Games both impressive and stunning. I will combine the spirit of sportsmanship with the character of Hangzhou to bring the attention of all Asians to the city so that the Games will become a brilliant cornerstone in Hangzhou's development.

There is a sentence in The Spirit of Asia, the anthem of the Beijing Asian Games: "in our Asia, trees are linked in roots." It showcases the solidarity of all the countries in Asia in the most straightforward manner. And so will our Hangzhou Asian Games musical works.

The Hangzhou Asian Games song should be rooted in the city itself. Hangzhou was hailed as a paradise on earth by Italian explorer Marco Polo. As the city has now been equipped with the "wings" of the internet, my song will reflect its charm both in ancient and modern times.
