With their solid language skills and excellent translation proficiency, the two students stood out among numerous participants and showcased the talent of SCUT School of Foreign Languages students in this high-level international competition. Founded in 1989, the Han Suyin International Translation Competition is the longest-running, largest, and most influential translation contest in China's translation community, often referred to as the Oscars of the translation field.
