Chinese volunteers enjoy, contribute to WC in Russia

MOSCOW, July 07 (XINHUA): With Chinese brands having caught the eye at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, a number of Chinese volunteers are also making their contribution to football's showpiece event in Russia, and are managing to enjoy it at the same time.

The 24-year-old Wang Hui is a "veteran" volunteer who also helped at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, and she is the only volunteer from the Chinese mainland stationed in the Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod.

Having backpacked through 40 different countries, Wang is now enjoying the opportunity to help out at the World Cup in Russia, both as a football fan, and as a lover of cross-cultural experiences.

"The greatest feeling that the World Cup has given me is that no matter your age, your career or where you come from, football is a common language. This is a good opportunity to communicate with people from all over the world," Wang said.
