I didn't expect that a pair of scissors could cut such a beautiful pattern. In the Jimingshan community of Yiwu, Zhejiang, the "Paper-cutting to Welcome the New Year" activity is being held, and Anna from Romania carefully experiences the charm of Chinese paper-cutting skills, "I like traditional Chinese art very much. It's a pity that I don't know how to cut it now. ”
Recently, Zhejiang's first reporter walked into the Jimingshan community of Jiangdong Street, Yiwu City, known as the "United Nations Community", together with the network international communication expert and the first wind collection group, to experience the exchange of different cultures, and to experience the human touch, happiness and international style here.

Our community is one of the communities with the highest concentration of foreign residents in Yiwu. Zhu Zhenglong, a staff member of the Jimingshan community, told reporters that since the "Belt and Road" initiative was put forward ten years ago, more and more foreign businessmen have come to Yiwu along the new Silk Road. At present, there are 2 permanent residents in the community30,000 people, including more than 2,000 compatriots from 29 ethnic minorities, and 1,388 overseas personnel from 74 countries and regions. In order to facilitate the life of foreigners, the community often organizes free Chinese language training and cultural week activities to pass on Chinese cultural elements such as making zongzi and cutting paper to every foreigner.
Walking up to the second floor of the Community Party and Mass Service Center, the "International Old Lady's Studio" here made the reporter's eyes shine. "Foreign businessmen have just arrived in Yiwu, and the language barrier is easy to cause conflicts and misunderstandings, and we will help solve them. An Iranian foreigner, Hami, walked over, spoke fluent Chinese, and greeted everyone warmly.
Uncle Yang Niang" Hami exchanged with the wind collection group Photo by reporter Li Xinyi.
Hami is the head of the studio and started doing business in China in 2003. Proficient in 6 languages, including Persian, English, Turkish, Japanese, Spanish, and Chinese, coupled with his natural "warm-heartedness", Hami has become the "target of help" for many foreign friends in the local area.
From frictions between neighbors to hundreds of thousands of yuan in economic disputes, Hami can always patiently persuade and solve them. "I feel blessed to see the people who come to ask for help go from being angry to hugging each other. In Hami's heart, "Uncle Yangniang" is not only an identity, but also a responsibility.
Foreigners don't see outsiders, and keep people more attentive. In the Jimingshan community, there are more than 30 "foreign uncles" like Hami. "This kind of governance model of 'external transfer' makes it easier for foreigners with a natural sense of identity and similar thinking patterns to accept, which is convenient for breaking the deadlock and improving the success rate of mediation. Zhu Zhenglong, a community worker, said. Since 2019, Hami and his team have handled 107 disputes, involving an amount of more than 50 million yuan, involving foreign friends from 29 countries and regions.
Residents of different colors, nationalities and nationalities enjoy a harmonious, peaceful and happy life here. Hami said that after living in China for 20 years, he feels less and less like a foreigner, "I feel like we are all a family, and this feeling makes me love China more and more." ”
