"An ancient Chinese horizontally blown bamboo wind instrument", "a bamboo flute that can be played". With Yang Jiechi taking office, this relatively uncommon Chinese character has become a key word used in media reports. While attending the conference in Egypt, many foreign media became interested in the meaning of Yang Jiechi's name.
Yang Jiechi was born on the first Labor Day in New China. He was not named "May Day" or "Qinglao" like many people at that time. Yang's father named him "Jiechi". ".
The origin of the latter word is because this year is the Year of the Tiger in the Chinese lunar calendar. According to traditional saying, people born in the year of tiger are fierce, so Father Yang added the word "bamboo" to the head of the tiger character. The intention is to make it "hard and soft".
