The symposium was successfully held at Tsinghua University. Senior experts from Wolfram Research introduced new features and applications of Mathematica and Wolfram|Alpha. Invited speakers presented their latest teaching and research results. Students showcased demonstration projects they created using Mathematica, revealing a new mode for how Chinese students utilize modern technical computing software.

Lively exchange took place between speakers and symposium participants, and everyone was impressed by the applications of Mathematica. Here is a detailed report on the symposium in Chinese with some photos:
