After three days of intense competition across four modules, Li Wentao secured the gold medal in the category through exceptional professional skills and outstanding performance, proudly waving the national flag on the international stage to bring honor to the country.

In preparation for representing the nation in Belarus, the school leadership placed great emphasis on the training phase, providing comprehensive and robust support for the team. The World Skills Competition Restaurant Service category China training base provided full technical support throughout the training process. This outstanding achievement is the result of the team's dedicated efforts and also vividly demonstrates the School of Management's long-term commitment to deepening industry-education integration and strengthening skills training.
