在讲座中,罗林泉大使向大家介绍了外交及礼宾的基本概念和外交事务的特点,如数家珍地列举了他所经历的外交事务,以及曾经在其驻希腊、爱尔兰大使馆就职期间的外交工作,当谈到经过周密安排,圆满完成2008年奥运会筹备阶段希腊起始站奥运圣火采集的保驾护航,以及利比亚撤侨等一系列重大高难度外交任务时,同学们无不钦佩向往,博得了满堂掌声。

罗林泉大使通过一个个典型案例的层层剖析,教导同学们外交无小事,今后在日常生活中,无论做什么事都要注重培养严谨细致、周到用心的行为作风,规范自身的高标准严要求,注意细节,努力将事情做到极致;在与同学们的对话交流中,当罗林泉大使谈及留学建议时表示,他支持有志者到海外留学深造,去学习了解西方文化,融合中西方文化精髓,他同时建议同学们要辩证地吸收西方文化,取其精华去其糟粕,同时,罗大使还引用苏格拉底的名言“人生就是一次无法重复的选择”引导学生们思考:人生是什么?人生为了什么?人生该怎么过?并嘱咐同学们在未来留学时,要把安全放在首位,把全部精力放到刻苦学习上,以昂扬奋进的姿态,将全部才华和抱负投入到社会主义建设的伟大征程中,为实现中华民族的伟大复兴做出自己应有的贡献。

罗林泉大使最后还表示,改革开放四十多年,中国发生了翻天覆地的变化,中国的外交实现了大发展,同时中国的外交官也受到了更多的尊重,近期新冠疫情的突发,加速了世界格局的演变,我国在外交上也面临着大的机遇,未来中国的朋友队伍将会不断壮大,中国在外交上将会更加自信,他也以此鼓励王府学子将来有机会能奔赴外交一线,从事外交事务,出使四方,不辱使命。

整个讲座过程中,罗大使严谨的工作态度、缜密的思维和儒雅的风度都让学子们折服,现场气氛热烈而活跃。

最后,北京王府学校校长王广发先生对罗林泉大使的精彩讲座表示感谢,对罗林泉大使高超的外交事务处理能力和睿智胆识表示由衷赞叹。王广发校长表示,中国改革开放的发展在很大程度上得益于国家的外交事务,正是中国驻外大使在国际上的腾挪捭阖为国家的经济、国防、科技等各行各业做出了不可磨灭的贡献,弱国无外交,而中国已实现了强国外交,当前国家的外交人才缺口几十万甚至更多,王校长鼓励全体王府学子要以罗林泉大使和所有奋战在国际舞台上的外交官为榜样,认真思考总结,研学外交知识经验,关注当今国际局势,努力增长才干本领,不忘初心,牢记使命,力争成为外交事务的担当者,成为中国文化的传播者,讲好中国故事。

Renowned Chinese Diplomat Ambassador Luo Linquan visited Beijing Royal School on September 3, providing an inspiring lecture about diplomatic protocol and diplomacy to our students.

Ambassador Luo introduced the basic concepts of diplomacy and protocol by citing examples of his diplomatic work experiences in Greece and Ireland. He stressed that diplomacy is no small matter and neither is safety, which should always be one’s first priority when abroad.  He advised students to focus on developing and cultivating a rigorous, meticulous, and thoughtful diplomatic style for use as a general rule. He encouraged those students who intend to study abroad to implement these strategies immediately. Acknowledging their need to understand and integrate Western culture into the essence of their own Chinese culture and value systems, Ambassador Luo noted that good diplomacy helps China as a nation put it’s ‘best foot forward’, supports the great rejuvenation of China and builds successful life experiences.

In closing, Ambassador Luo also said that during more than 40 years of reform and opening up, China’s diplomacy has opened up doors to great opportunities, and Chinese diplomats have also received more and more respect. The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has seriously affected global diplomatic relationships.  As a result, China faces great challenges in diplomacy, but Ambassador Luo believes that China’s circle of friends will continue to expand as China becomes more confident in diplomatic situations. He encouraged BRS students to actively practice and engage diplomatic skills in the future because these experiences shine a bright light on our motherland and her people.

BRS Principal Wang Guangfa wrapped up Ambassador Luo’s presentation by expressing his gratitude for the wonderful lecture. He encouraged all students from Beijing Royal School to follow Ambassador Luo’s example and advice in order to grow and to become the backbone of our country’s diplomacy in the future. Developing diplomacy skills reflects on BRS’s Guidelines on Fostering Talents, as we strive to prepare our students to thrive in the international arena, to share the stories of China and to assume their place as guardians of the future.
