Before we start our main body, I’d like to introduce the basic knowledge about Conference.At present, the conference is hold twice a year, the spring conference and the fall conference.The Xian’s conference is a fall conference hold on 28th.Oct.2016——30th Oct. 2016, three days.And This is a district conference(大区峰会), Our club belongs to District 88.

The champion shared his stories about being a hero. When he was young, he was dreamed to be a monkey: Great Sage Equalling Heaven(齐天大圣),so that he can protect the world. When he grew up and experienced some setbacks that he realized that the hero maybe someone who just keep on doing some ordinary things. Everyone who has made efforts to make the world better is a hero.Very impressive and touching speech.

I found that good speech comes from daily life, then told by a funny way and Inthe end let audience get some message.

The third session was a First-Timer's Gathering for those who attend conference for the first time.The host ask theaudience what they have got from TMC and their growth. From the audiences’answer I felt their love for TMC and TMC brings them with courage, confidenceand happiness.In addition,TMC lets us know so many wonderful friends and be abetter person. And there was an interesting phenomenon: Toastmaster, is notonly where leaders are made but also where couples are made. Because so manycouples shared their stories.

The forth session was a** Leadership Forum**(领导力论坛). The DTM shared his experience about leadership.

The most important lesson I learned is that being a officer needs to take more responsibility. And when you take more responsibility you can grow fast and better.

But after listening Alex Fang’s Speech, we thought that he was the champion.Unfortunately, his spoke over time. It’s no big deal.His speech is “it’s no big deal”.It’s no big deal to have depression, and it’s no big deal to talk about it. We should pay attention to time control.
The fans of him were talking to him. And I am one of them.
