People around the world are racing to halt the spread of a deadly novel coronavirus that emerged in the Chinese city of Wuhan in December. Since these days, most of the Chinese cities including Zhejiang Province, have been involved in the battle against the epidemic nightmare. Amid the outbreak, we want to gather some blessing messages from international friends and their communities, so as to encourage all Zhejiang people to be stronger and braver. Today, we'd like to share a message from Pierre Mirochnikoff, Former Board Member of the French Chamber of Commerce. 

Dear Chinese friends, 

You have welcomed me as a long friend for more than ten years now, and I have stayed because I must tell you, you are a very exceptional people, generous, your hospitality is immense, and now look at yourself in this fight, all united, around your president Xi, and his government, around "your blue and white angels", some of whom unfortunately even gave their lives, to save thousands of people, sleeping on the ground so as not to miss their watchtower, around the 2,000 workers who built this hospital day and night, around Hubei, around Wuhan, and today in Zhejiang and Wenzhou.

These thousands of workers, and all of you, my fantastic Chinese friends, fought a magnificent battle from the start.

It is a fantastic example of courage, will, selflessness, you put the sun in your actions, in our hearts, we know that you will win, we know that you will succeed in defeating this virus, you will make millions of attempts and it is the most courageous and noble things that we have ever done. I love you people from China I love you people from Zhejiang, I love you people from Wenzhou "Jia You" "Jia You"!

Pierre Mirochnikoff,

Former Board Member of the French Chamber of Commerce from Paris living in Beijing
