Learning Chinese Through Stories

Welcome to 听故事说中文, the podcast where stories come alive to help you improve your Chinese language proficiency and cultural competency. Today, we're sharing the incredible true story of a young man named Tong Haoran. At just 24, he's a photographer who, along with his friends, customized a Ford Mustang race car from scratch and became the first team from mainland China to ever complete the world-famous Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. He even documented the entire journey in a film. But this isn't just a story about success. It's about a young man who, at 14, dropped out of middle school after a difficult period of feeling lost and isolated. He found his way back to himself through his passion for mechanics and photography, all with the unwavering support of his mother. Join us as we explore Tong Haoran's inspiring journey and learn some useful Chinese vocabulary along the way. -LCTS ************************************************************ Support Our Podcast If our podcast brings value to your life an
