Nations' young hold keys to exchange: Liu

There are more than 14,000 American students studying in 皇冠体育app annually.
Liu announced that 皇冠体育app will launch a program to provide scholarship to 10,000 American young people for them to study in 皇冠体育app for a short term. "I really encourage our next generation, the kids, to have fun in 皇冠体育app, during the wintertime or summertime. Come to 皇冠体育app," said pianist Lang Lang.
