Before the start of the second session of Vision China, a series of talks organized by China Daily and held on Sunday at the Hangzhou International Expo Center in East China's Zhejiang province, participants from home and abroad downloaded the China Daily mobile app, hoping to get the freshest news in English through it.

Many said they have long known about current affairs at home and abroad through China Daily and many students praised China Daily as a "magic weapon" to improve their English skills.

During the lucky draw, more than 30 guests won the China Daily custom panda stuffed toy. They expressed their delight with the gift and posed for pictures with the pandas.
