馬諾（Manol Manolov，保加利亞），中央廣播電視總臺(tái)保加利亞部專家，致力于報(bào)道中國(guó)的科學(xué)技術(shù)進(jìn)步和日常生活中的創(chuàng)新。

我的“中國(guó)夢(mèng)”始于10年前拿著全額獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金到中國(guó)攻讀碩士課程。那時(shí)，我對(duì)中國(guó)到底是怎樣的并沒(méi)有絲毫概念。我總聽(tīng)聞這個(gè)國(guó)家科技的發(fā)展、經(jīng)濟(jì)的繁榮和人民生活水平的改善，但在保加利亞這個(gè)位于東歐的小國(guó)，當(dāng)時(shí)其實(shí)沒(méi)有多少人真正了解中國(guó)的情況。

中國(guó)帶我踏上了長(zhǎng)達(dá)10年的旅程，去重新發(fā)現(xiàn)社會(huì)，重新發(fā)現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化世界與現(xiàn)代技術(shù)，以及重新發(fā)現(xiàn)我自己。我乘高鐵旅行，在北京市中心繞著摩天大樓散步……這與我在歐洲的生活大有不同。我喜歡這里，于是我留了下來(lái)。

獲得碩士學(xué)位后，我決定留在北京工作，繼續(xù)追求我的幸福?，F(xiàn)在我從業(yè)于中國(guó)最大的媒體——中央廣播電視總臺(tái)。是的，這座城市正在改變和成長(zhǎng)，而我也在隨之成長(zhǎng)。過(guò)去10年里，中國(guó)教會(huì)了我什么是 “敢于有夢(mèng)、勇于追夢(mèng)、勤于圓夢(mèng)”。在我們這個(gè)時(shí)代，只要努力工作、不懼艱難，任何人都可以在日常生活、家庭生活和事業(yè)中大放異彩。中國(guó)改變了我的觀念，改變了我的價(jià)值觀，改變了我自己。我看到了中華民族偉大復(fù)興的開(kāi)始，但對(duì)我而言更重要的是，我看到了我自己的“復(fù)興”。

過(guò)去10年里，我目睹了中國(guó)堅(jiān)定自信、增強(qiáng)實(shí)力和開(kāi)辟新天地的非凡歷程。我仍然對(duì)中國(guó)人民在百年不遇的全球變化中團(tuán)結(jié)奮斗、全面建設(shè)現(xiàn)代社會(huì)主義國(guó)家的偉大成就而欽佩不已。

中國(guó)正在推動(dòng)生活中各個(gè)領(lǐng)域的高質(zhì)量發(fā)展。我們看到中國(guó)在技術(shù)、公共福利、社會(huì)和商業(yè)生活方面取得了鼓舞人心的成就，最重要的是，在重新凝聚共同價(jià)值觀方面成績(jī)斐然。中國(guó)還通過(guò) “一帶一路”倡議引領(lǐng)世界，為世界上其他發(fā)展中國(guó)家的發(fā)展和繁榮提供機(jī)會(huì)。

中國(guó)的技術(shù)發(fā)展是最吸引我的地方。在中央廣播電視總臺(tái)，我專門負(fù)責(zé)報(bào)道圍繞現(xiàn)代生活的技術(shù)與創(chuàng)新。雖然我曾經(jīng)認(rèn)為自己對(duì)該領(lǐng)域的最新發(fā)展非常了解，但一頭扎進(jìn)其中后，我每天都能發(fā)現(xiàn)新的有趣的故事。中國(guó)通過(guò)規(guī)模宏大的能源項(xiàng)目、月球和火星探測(cè)、深海和深地探測(cè)、超級(jí)計(jì)算機(jī)、衛(wèi)星導(dǎo)航、量子信息、核電技術(shù)等，在科技方面建立了自力更生的實(shí)力。但對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)，這種發(fā)展的魅力在于其他方面。我看到普通人只需在手機(jī)上點(diǎn)擊幾下，就能輕松地在網(wǎng)上看全國(guó)最好的醫(yī)生；我看到來(lái)自云南叢林的普通農(nóng)民在社交媒體上出名，縮小了大城市和最小村莊之間的認(rèn)知差距；我看到農(nóng)民工在抖音上分享他們對(duì)音樂(lè)或藝術(shù)的熱情，打破了常人對(duì)他們的成見(jiàn)；我看到新作物和谷物品種為數(shù)百萬(wàn)人解決溫飽問(wèn)題。是的，這些都是因?yàn)榧夹g(shù)革新。這種創(chuàng)新，激發(fā)并促進(jìn)了社會(huì)中人與人之間更緊密的聯(lián)系。

中國(guó)正在全面建設(shè)社會(huì)主義現(xiàn)代化國(guó)家。我欽佩的正是這種開(kāi)拓精神——在砥礪前行的同時(shí)，不忘初心，牢記使命，同時(shí)不忘社會(huì)應(yīng)有的核心價(jià)值觀，牢記浩瀚歷史中的經(jīng)驗(yàn)與教訓(xùn)。

中國(guó)在過(guò)去十年中通過(guò)巨大努力取得了驚人的成就。這是在建設(shè)一個(gè)人人平等且重要的社會(huì)，這也是我想成為其中一員的社會(huì)。從懷抱著對(duì)中國(guó)的夢(mèng)想，到實(shí)現(xiàn)我的“小康”，我也在堅(jiān)定不移地為我的家人和我所愛(ài)之人的平安幸福而奮斗著。

My “China dream” started ten years ago.I came to China on a full scholarship for my master’s program.I honestly didn’t have the slightest idea of what China was.Of course,I’ve been hearing about the country’s development,the science and technology growth,the economic boom,and the people’s living standards.But honestly,not many people knew anything about China than Bulgaria,a small country in Eastern Europe.

And this is when China took me on this ten-year journey to rediscover society,the modern world,modern technologies,and as a whole - rediscovering myself.I traveled on highspeed trains and walked downtown Beijing around these vast skyscrapers.China was so much different from my life back in Europe.And I liked it.And I stayed.

I flnished my master’s degree,stayed to work in Beijing in my pursuit of happiness,and now I am part of the China Media Group - the most signiflcant media in the country.And yes -the city changed and grew,and with it,I grew too.In the last ten years,China taught me to “dare to dream and work assiduously to fulflll the dreams.” In our era,anyone can shine in his everyday life,family life,and career as long as he works hard and is not afraid of the struggle to develop.China changed my perceptions,changed my values,and changed me.I saw the beginning of the “great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,” but more importantly for me - I saw the rejuvenation of myself.

In the last ten years,I witnessed the remarkable journey of China staying confldent,building strength,and breaking new ground.I am still in awe of the Chinese people’s outstanding achievement of striving in unity to create a modern socialist country in all respects amid global changes of a magnitude not seen in a century.

China is promoting high - quality development in every area of life.As a result,we see inspirational achievements in technology,public well-being,social and commercial life,and most of all - in reuniting the familiar spirit.China is also reaching out to the world with its “Belt and Road Initiative,”providing chances for the growth and prosperity of other developing countries worldwide.

China’s technological development is what fascinates me the most.I have been working in the Bulgarian department of the China Media Group,and I specialize in covering the newest technologies and innovations around all sectors of modern life.And while I used to think I knew a lot about recent developments in the fleld,I am plunging headflrst into the details.I am flnding new exciting stories every day.Of course,China built self-reliance and strength in science and technology with its enormous energy projects,lunar and Martian exploration,deep sea and deep earth probes,supercomputers,satellite navigation,quantum information,nuclear power technology,etc.But for me,the beauty of this development is in something else.I see ordinary people going to see the best doctors in the country easily online just with a few clicks of a button on their mobile phones.I see simple farmers from the jungles of Yunnan getting famous on social media and closing the gap of prejudices between the big cities and the smallest villages.I see migrant workers sharing their passion for music or art on TikTok,breaking our stereotypes about them.I see new crops and grain varieties feeding millions of people.And yes - this is because of technological innovation.The kind of innovation which builds,evolves,and inspires a closer human bond between the people in a society.

The country is building itself into a modern socialist country in all respects.I admire this pioneering spirit - striving for success while never forgetting its original aspiration and founding mission,while never forgetting the core values of a functioning society and holding close to the historical lessons learned over its vast history.

China has made spectacular achievements through its great endeavors over the past decade.It is building a society in which every single person is essential.This is the kind of society I want to be part of.So I went from dreaming about China to building my “Xiaokang” and successfully striving for prosperity,security,and stability for my family and loved ones.
