Growing up in a family with a carpenter father,Jia would constantly observe his father
doing woodwork and sometimes assist him.This early exposure ignited (his passion and
talent for carpentry.But as a child,he couldn't build furniture on his own.So,he conveyed this

college life,Jia had already learned to bear loneliness and focus on achieving excellence."This
experience not only improved my skills but also tested my character,"Jia said.
Recently,Jia's commitment to this craft achieved a significant milestone.He was chosen
as one of the candidates to compete on behalf of China at the 47th World Skills Competition in
Lyon,France next year.
"If I can represent China on the global stage,I will exert all my efforts to become the
winner,”Jia said.
