全文如下：

各位领导、各位来宾：

大家下午好！

我是广州茶里集团谭琼。很荣幸今天可以代表广州企业、代表女性青年为大会做闭幕致辞。

茶里集团是一家年轻的消费品公司，依托于有上千年传统的中国茶产业，依托于广州、依托于大湾区这片生命力、市场力旺盛的热土，八年来，已经发展成为中国茶产业新形象、新工业、新技术的代表企业。茶里集团着重打造新时代标准化茶产品，已经形成了良好的市场口碑和影响力。在中国袋泡茶的市场占有率已经超过了立顿，深受几千万中国青年用户的喜爱。

此次，茶里集团有幸能成为亚洲青年领袖论坛官方的指定合作伙伴，我们希望在亚洲青年领袖联合会、亚洲青年领袖论坛的平台上，能够让中国茶这个传统的文化符号成为亚洲各国青年连接的纽带，成为“一带一路”各国人民情感的桥梁。

非常感恩这个时代。100年前的中国女性还在裹脚，而如今，我们能有机会在社会发展中承担更多的角色，能有机会创造更大的价值。相比亚洲其他国家，中国女性拥有更多的发展空间和更高的社会地位。在此，我呼吁更多中国优秀女性力量集结起来，一起推动和改变亚洲其他地区女性的现状，我个人也非常地期待能与中国和平发展基金会、与亚洲青年领袖联合会共同发起成立与亚洲女性相关的公益项目。

感恩大湾区，感恩广州这片热土，这里有中国最蓬勃的市场生命力和科技创新力。论坛所在地南沙是粤港澳大湾区的几何中心点，它也即将成为全球瞩目的新经济增长热点，拥有广阔的发展空间。

广州还有全世界最有温度的茶和美食，希望各国青年朋友们能在广州度过一个非常愉快的周末，希望大家能在美丽的珠江上，在漂亮的广州塔旁度过一个愉快的夜晚。

感谢大家的到来，我们明年再见。


On 28 November, Tan Qiong, chairwoman of Guangzhou Chali Group, delivered a keynote speech titled “The Greater Bay Area Boasts theMost Vigorous Market and Technological Innovation in China” at the closing ceremony of the Asia Youth Leaders Forum 2021.

The full speech is as below.

Respected Secretary Lu, dignitaries, and guests,

Good afternoon! I am Tan Qiong from Guangzhou Chali Group. It is an honor to speak on behalf of Guangzhou enterprises as well as female youths atthe closing ceremony.

Chali is a young consumer goods company thatbenefits from thousands of years of tradition in the Chinese tea industry and relies on the vitality andgreat market capacity of Guangzhou and the Greater Bay Area. After eight years of development, wehave already become a representative enterprise ofnew image, new industry, and new techniques ofChinese tea. Chali is dedicated to makingstandardized tea products in the new era and has already developed a good market reputation and influence. Our market share of bagged tea has already surpassed that of Lipton and gainedpopularity among millions of young Chinese users.

At this event, Chali is very honored to be an official partner of the Asia Youth Leaders Forum. We hope that at the Asia Youth Leaders Forum co-organizedby Asia Youth Leaders Association, we can help Chinese tea, a traditional Chinese cultural symbol,become a vital link between the youths of Asia and an emotional bridge among people from countriesalong the Belt and Road.

I am so grateful to this age that we live in. 100 years ago, Chinese women still had to bind their feet,whereas today we have the opportunity to take on more roles in the development of our society and to create more value. Compared to counterparts inother Asian countries, Chinese women have more room for development and a higher social status.Right now, I would like to call on even more outstanding Chinese women to work together to promote and change the status of women in otherparts of Asia. Besides, I am really looking forward to working together with the China Foundation for Peace and Development and the Asia Youth Leaders Association to launch public welfare programs for Asian women.

I am grateful to the Greater Bay Area and Guangzhou, as it has the most flourishing market and technological innovation in China. Nansha, where this forum is being held, is the geometric center of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and will soon capture the world's attention as a new economic hotspot with a brightdevelopment prospect.

Guangzhou is also home to the warmest tea and themost delicious food in the world. I hope that all young friends from different countries can enjoy an amazing weekend in Guangzhou, and that everyone can enjoy a splendid evening on the beautiful Pearl River which is next to the Canton Tower. Thank you all for coming. See you next year.
