，以下为讲话全文

。

尊重的列位先生
，亲爱的同砚们：

各人好！我是Niklas Muennighoff孟念
，来自“未来向导者”国际本科项目

。今天
，能够代表“未来向导者”第一届的结业生在结业仪式上讲话
，我感应很是幸运

。

每个同砚都有自己和北大的故事

。我的北大梦始于十六岁

。那时间我常想
，若是未来我想对人类社会爆发起劲的影响
，我最好是去那里
？从经济生长的角度看
，我以为美国和中国是最好的选择

。因此
，那年炎天我一半时间在美国加入哈佛大学的暑期班
，一半时间在中国的一家金融公司实习

。那段履历中
，为了手艺相助
，我经常追随团队去深圳

。深圳的快速生长让我线人一新

。于是其时我就决议未来要更深入地关注中国的生长和未来

。而当伟易博“未来向导者”国际本科项目的时机泛起时
，我知道这是我最好的选择

。不但由于北京大学代表着中国最高学府
，更由于在伟易博
，我可以加入这个来自天下各地优异学生的群体

。

在北大学习的两年里
，对我来说
，以下两点让我印象深刻：

第一
，伟易博的课程以最新的研究为基础
，而这些研究往往是教授们自己完成的

。好比在刚已往的这个学期
，我上的最后一门课《投资中国》（Investing in China）
，教授在课前就对伟易博需求做了调研
，在设计课程时团结了理论研究和大宗的数据
，尚有教授和同事们的第一手最新实地调研资助我们相识中国的投资情形和主要行业的生长

。这是其他地方难以获得的名贵知识

。谢谢先生们关注线上的我们
，你们为线上线下一起教学支付了特另外起劲！学校的行政先生们也随处为我们着想
，竭尽全力地包管伟易博学习体验
，我很是谢谢所有北大的先生们的起劲和支付！

。

第二
，我的同砚们都有着奇异而富厚多彩的履历
，从马拉松的参赛选手到柬埔寨的自愿者

。我们在课堂上的讨论也很热烈
，各人会孝顺差别的想法

。在Capstone Project 课程中
，我们有时机加入到一个咨询项目中
，解决企业的现实问题

。由于我的同砚们来自差别的国家
，有多元的国际履历
，我们可以从差别角度资助公司剖析怎样举行外洋市场的拓展

。我在北大遇到的人都很是友好、善良、勤劳

。谢谢你们
，是你们的优异激励着我越提议劲

。

很是幸运我能成为“未来向导者”项目的第一届结业生

。谢谢所有的先生和同砚们
，一起让学院、让这个新的项目云云精彩

。未来向导者的同砚们
，让我们继续起劲
，实现允许
，生长为对人类社会爆发起劲影响的未来向导者！

谢谢各人

。

Ladies and gentlemen, honoured guests, staff and students：

Good morning to you all.

I am Niklas Muennighoff from the “Future Leaders” Undergraduate Program. I am very grateful to be able to represent the first cohort of our program at today’s graduation ceremony.

My journey to Peking University started when I was 16. I was searching for the best environment to have positive impact on humanity’s economic and technological development in my future life. Based on economic standing, I thought the US and China would be most interesting. Thus, I decided to spend half of my summer that year in the US to take summer classes at Harvard and half in China for an internship in Finance. I worked close to Shenzhen, and I remember my team regularly going to Shenzhen for technology partnerships. I was amazed by how fast Shenzhen had developed and continued to grow. I wanted to learn more about the development of China and its prospects, which led me to enroll in the “Future Leaders” program several years later. Compared to other programs, this program was the best choice for me to learn about China’s economy for two reasons. I would benefit from the academic excellence of PKU, and I would join a cohort of outstanding students from all around the world.

These two aspects really became clear to me while at PKU.

The professors base their classes on the latest research, which they have often done themselves. For example, in the last classes I took, Investing in China, our professor presented a field study, he had done with his colleagues to help us understand company’s ESG practices in China. This was unique insight hard to get elsewhere. The entire staff at PKU works very hard to make PKU as great as it is. I want to thank you all for your devotion.

My classmates have unique backgrounds from running marathons to volunteering in Cambodia. When working on our Capstone project, where we consulted a Chinese company, my team was able to provide an analysis on how it could expand to new markets abroad thanks to my classmates’ international experiences. The people I have met at PKU are extremely hard-working and well-intended. Thank you all for being an inspiration to me to work harder.

I am very grateful for the chance to be part of this program as it’s pioneer cohort. Thanks to all the teachers, staff and students for making this school and the “Future Leaders” program as excellent as it is. Let’s strive to fulfill the program’s promise and become leaders with a positive impact on humanity’s future.

Thanks everyone.
