Here, the noise of the city was left behind, replaced by the whisper of mountain streams, the reed-pipe songs of Miao villages, and the genuine smiles of colleagues freed from their professional roles.

When teammates are no longer just nodding acquaintances in conference rooms, but companions supporting each other on wind-and-rain bridges, our understanding of "cohesion" transcends slogans and becomes a vivid tapestry of shared memories. These six days, we did not just encounter Guizhou—we encountered a stronger team and better versions of ourselves.
