About the 5th "Just Shenzhen Just Young" Video Contest
With the theme "Snap Shenzhen, Engage with APEC", the 5th "Just Shenzhen Just Young" Video Contest calls for submissions from young creators—both local and international—across the Greater Bay Area. Participants are encouraged to create freely in Vlog format.
The contest features four topics based on the "APEC" framework:
A - Amazing: Amazing City
P - Passion: Passionate Vitality
E - Environment: Green Environment
C - Creativity: Creative Innovation
Together, these topics offer a panoramic view of Shenzhen's openness and vitality. Through the lens of young creators, the contest aims to vividly tell the story of the city's growth and convey the warmth and inclusiveness of Shenzhen—where "once you come, you're a Shenzhener."
