Mabol's Self-introduction（She Leads' Challenge of Day 8)）

Self-introduction 
自我介绍

Hi, everyone, happy lantern festival. Have you ever been proud of what you are doing? Yes I do. Because I am a tea coach, I am sharing one of the most beautiful thing with the whole world --- Chinese Tea Art.

大家好，元宵节快乐。您们有过为自己所做的事业而骄傲吗？我有，因为我是一位茶师，我正在与全世界分享最美好的事物之一——中国茶艺！

Chinese tea has a long and rich history. Tea is the essence of nature, which can bring us good health, can make us happy, can cultivate the good morality and maintain our hearts. Tea can cheers us up. What’s more importantly, tea can pull us together, in this way, we are able to learn each other, to understand each other, to support each other. (That’s who exactly I want to be) So,  after studying 7 years majored in Tea science, you know, 7- year itch, after you and your boyfriend or girl friend being together 7 years, you want to be together in your rest of your life, in most cases. Therefore, yeah, therefore, I decided to devote my whole life to tea.

中国茶历史悠久，文化悠长。茶是大地万物的精华，有益健康，助我们快乐，好的培养品格，从而修养身心。茶总能使我们振作起来，最重要的是，茶让我们在一起，您们就能相互了解，相互学习，相互支持对方。（拥有这样品格特点得人是我想要成为的）在大学7年茶学专业之后，您知道，七年之痒，当您和您男朋友或者女朋友在一起7年后，你们就想共度余生，当然，大部分是这样的。所以，是的，所以，我也决定将自己的余生倾注在茶上。

So in past years, I worked in some tea companies, finally I find a better way to share my passion, to be a tea coach, indulged in tea education. With my master degree in Tea Science, my rich experience in brand tea company, the good connection in the whole Yunnan tea mountains, I am a tea coach now. Because to be a teach coach, to teach Chinese tea art it not only to teach the knowledge or skills, it’s also about to discover the beauty of the life, to share the art of the life, to chase the wisdom of the life, that’s why, that’s how I am so passionate about what I am doing. I am so glad I made it. Now I have some students all over the world, I am so proud of you, you made who I am. And I am sure you will be the seeds, grow and bring happiness and meaningful life to your friends around you. I am proud of you too.

前几年在茶企工作，幸运的是，我终于找到了能够分享我的热情的方式，成为一名职业茶培训师，专注也茶教育。7年茶学专业硕士背景、品牌茶企培训管理经验，加之在茶山的与茶农良好的关系，我最终成为了一名职业茶教练。因为，教授中国茶艺不仅仅是教授知识和技术，也要去分享我对茶热情，去发现生活之美，去分享生活的艺术，去追求卓越生活的智慧，也正是我所爱我所为之处。我也非常开心，我做到了。现在，我逐渐有了来自世界各地的学生，我为你们自豪，你们成就了真正的我。我相信，你们也会在世界各地生根发芽，开花结果，分享你们对茶的热情和生活之道，我真的为你们骄傲。

Currently, yes, so sadly, the whole China, even the whole world is suffering the novel coronavirus. There is a rumor, saying tea can cure and prevent this kind of virus, it’s not ture of course. However, by drinking tea properly long term, yes, it will enhance our immune system, that is able to keep good faith and well fit. This, it will protect ourselves from being attacked by any disease, that will protect us, that will protect you.

目前，很难过的是，中国，甚至是全世界饱受病毒之害，有人说，喝茶可以治疗或者预防病毒。这当然不是真的。但是，科学长期饮茶，能提高我们的提高力，让人身心愉快，信念慢慢，身体棒棒，这样才有可能抵抗所有的疾病，这样才能保护我们，保护您。

So, my friends, no matter where are you now, join Mabol, yes, me, Mabol Zhong, to have some tea, to share some tea with your friends, to share passion with your friends by drinking tea in your rest of your life. Being together, we all can achieve. Because, tea, T-E-A, together, each achieves. Do you believe me, yes, together, each achieves. Let’s together, each achieves!

所以，我的朋友们，不管您在哪里，加入钟梅，对，就是我，端上一盏茶，余生与茶结缘，广交善友。在一起，共同成就对方，因为，这即是茶之精神：在一起，每个人都会所有为！
