For the first time, this year's enlistment poster in Beijing has a fresh, young face: that of Gao Ming, a Peking University economics major who is currently in service.
As a prestigious university student, Gao's decision to join the army two years ago attracted the attention of high ranking military officials, according to local media.
"Do you think it's a waste of time to stand on guard in the army? Do you feel bored sometimes?" Gao was asked during one interview.
He answered:"If you have a caring heart, you'll notice that the sun is different every day, and we ourselves are different every day. How can it be boring?"
Of course, military life is more than watching the sun rise and set. University students are treated the same as other enlistees.
Huang suggests that students think carefully before deciding to join the army. "It's not a place for a comfortable life. Get prepared for it," Huang said.
