On May 4 to mark the 102nd anniversary of the May 4th movement, the People's Daily printed a full-page article -- starting on page 1 and going on to the entire page 2 -- with mainly just quotes from Xi Jinping himself regarding Chinese youth. The quotes have been taken from events, speeches, or writings over the past decade or so. Xi Jinping's name figures 79 times! China has also issued a 2-minute "patriotic" video entitled "I am China". CCTV publicised (May 4) that events are being organised since the last few days by the Communist Youth League, the All-China Youth Federation, and the All-China Student Federation in universities, like Tsinghua across China to mark the May 4 movement. Events have been organised in Beijing, Hubei, Tianjin, Chongqing, Shanxi, Guangxi, Yunnan and other places.
