"Is there a perfect circle in this world?! No! But we all want to draw that perfect circle, because that is our pursuit. All incomplete circles are moving towards that perfect circle, no matter how long it takes, no matter what difficulties we encounter. We have won now, and we can continue to win in the future!!"
