The 14th Chinese Bridge - Chinese Proficiency Competition for Foreign College Students kicked off on July 1. Hunan TV, host of this year's event, introduced a new concept--"Chinese Dormitory". The dormitory is a personal place where the foreign contestants experience the campus life in China and foreign cultures and Chinese culture interact.

　　This year's competition fully demonstrates the theme of Peace and Cooperation. The finals will be an outdoor reality show during which the finalists will visit four key sites closely related to the Silk Road, experience the local culture and customs and finish various tasks in the Chinese competition. The highlight of the finals will be the "Chinese Dormitory". Coming to China for the first time, contestants from all over the world, with different cultural backgrounds, will stay in four cities for the competition. They will live together in one single dormitory for three days and two nights. There is definitely much to expect in the show. Fifteen contestants will be chosen to live in the "Chinese Dormitory" in the reality show during which they need to respond to both indoor and outdoor tasks and challenges in Chinese. The event is a selective competition where the contestant with the highest score wins.
