On January 12, 2026, the signing and unveiling ceremony for the “Teaching and Employment Internship Base” between our school and Beijing Zhong’an Hotel was held in the hotel’s conference room. Zhao Zhihou, the Secretary of the school’s Party Commitee, Li Ming, Associate Dean of Teaching, Yuan Xiling, Chair of the Labor Union, and Zhao Xintong, a student representative from the Russian Department, attended the ceremony. Feng Yanbing, Manager of Beijing Zhong’an Hotel, together with the hotel’s management team, also participated in the ceremony and the subsequent discussion.
Zhao Zhihou signed the “Teaching and Employment Internship Base Cooperation Agreement” on behalf of the school. In his speech, he noted that the internship base would serve as a bridge connecting theory and practice for students, enabling complementary advantages and mutually beneficial cooperation between the university and the enterprise. He expressed the hope that both sides would use the base as a link to deepen comprehensive cooperation and create a model of industry-education integration. He also suggested leveraging the school’s strengths in Snow Studies to collaborate with Beijing Zhong’an Hotel, which holds historical significance related to international friends, to jointly explore red culture, promote cultural exchanges between China and the world, and write a new chapter in cooperative education between the university and the enterprise. Following this, Li Ming unveiled the base on behalf of the school.
During the subsequent discussion, both parties engaged in in-depth exchanges on topics such as customized internship positions, practical teaching guidelines, research project development, and horizontal collaboration. Multiple consensuses were reached, laying a solid foundation for future cooperation. Zhao Xintong expressed in her speech that she sincerely thanked the school and the hotel for jointly establishing this internship platform. She cherished this valuable internship opportunity and looked forward to comprehensively enhancing her abilities through the internship experience.
Beijing Zhong’an Hotel is the historical site where Edgar Snow’s work Red Star Over China was written and is a themed hotel centered on the “Snow Spirit.” As a window for international cultural exchanges within China’s Ministry of Emergency Management, the hotel receives over 40,000 international visitors annually and has accumulated extensive experience in international hospitality services and cross-cultural communication. It has a continuous demand for foreign language services in languages such as English and Russian. This signing marks both the first establishment of a university-industry internship base for Beijing Zhong’an Hotel and the first internship and employment base set up outside Shaanxi Province by our institute.
Our school consistently upholds the educational philosophy of nurturing foreign language talents who “understand languages, grasp national contexts, and excel in specialized fields.” Through multilingual teaching and an interdisciplinary training model, we strive to align precisely with industry demands. This event further strengthened our school’s mechanisms for university-industry collaboration and cooperative education, serving as another vivid practice in implementing the national policy on industry-education integration.
