Laughter and cheers filled the room. Ultimately, Li Gang’s team won first place, followed by Wang Di’s team in second. Deputy General Manager and Chief Safety Officer Qiao Huijie awarded the winners.
Tug-of-War
On the morning of October 14, six teams from different departments competed in the tug-of-war event on the west side of the office building. At the referee’s whistle, participants gripped the rope tightly, leaned back, shouted team slogans, and pulled with all their strength—at one point even breaking the rope! After a rematch with a new rope, Liu Hongguang led the Production Operations Center team to victory. Cui Zhiyuan presented awards to the winning team.
Brick Relay
Immediately following the tug-of-war, the brick relay was held, with four teams competing in two groups. Participants placed bricks under their feet and raced forward, coordinating and giving directions to teammates. Ultimately, Li Hongwen led the Operations Support Department team to victory. Wei Fuchang presented awards to the winners and participants.
Blindfolded Drum Hitting
The blindfolded drum-hitting event took place on the morning of October 14. Each team assigned one member to direct while the other, blindfolded, spun in place and tried to reach the drum. Some participants went in the wrong direction, some spun in circles, and others overshot the target, creating hilarious moments. Xu Qiuhan’s team emerged victorious, with Wei Fuchang presenting awards.
Table Tennis Relay
On the afternoon of October 14, participants gathered on the south side of the office building for the table tennis relay. The first runner used long chopsticks to carry a ball from a box to the second runner, who then threw it backward for the third runner to catch with a small bucket. The event tested patience, coordination, and teamwork. Wang Di’s team won first place, with Wei Fuchang presenting awards.
Multi-Person Ball Carry
The final event of the Fun Games was the multi-person ball carry. Teams of four held balloons and moved forward in sync at the whistle. Some teams marched with large steps, others shuffled cautiously, and some dropped the balloons and returned to the start, creating many laugh-out-loud moments. Wang Shukun’s team ultimately won, with Wei Fuchang presenting awards to the winning team and participants.
