<strong>Peking</strong>, Beijing, Nov 10th, 2004: The pop music contest ―Fresh Air on the Campus‖<br />

has been taking place around universities in China. On Nov 10th, the grand final<br />

was held in the Centennial Memorial Hall at <strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong>. Twelve contestants<br />

from different universities around China entered the final contest.<br />

The contest originated last year, with the final match held in Beijing Normal<br />

<strong>University</strong>. This year‘s final at <strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong> was a good follow up.<br />

The contestant Liu Bei from School <strong>of</strong> Journalism and Communication <strong>of</strong> <strong>Peking</strong><br />

<strong>University</strong> entered the final match with the song ―Going Home‖. She said she felt<br />

more self-confident to sing on the stage <strong>of</strong> her ―Alma Mater‖ than being away when<br />

approached by <strong>PKU</strong> <strong>News</strong>. ―We are more like friends than competitors, there is no<br />

fierce competition going on here, we are all having fun by just being with each<br />

other.‖<br />

Liu Bei gave her own interpretation <strong>of</strong> the title ―Fresh Air on the Campus‖: I think it<br />

means you have to present your own understanding <strong>of</strong> the music instead <strong>of</strong> just<br />

reciting the melody. I didn‘t write the song ―going home‖, but I gave it my<br />

interpretation when I sang it.<br />
