The "Little Scientists of Tomorrow" rewarding activity is known as the "Nobel Prize for Chinese Youth", a science and technology education activity. It aims to provide a platform for outstanding young science and technology enthusiasts in China to display, communicate and learn, encourage young people to aspire to devote themselves to the cause of natural science research, and cultivate scientific ethics, innovative spirit and practical ability. Students participating in the rewarding activity can not only improve their own level through this activity, but also communicate with students from more than 30 provinces and regions across the country during the activity, so as to enrich their own scientific knowledge and let more students from different regions know The situation of science education in secondary schools in Hong Kong.

Lin said: "It's a great honor to represent Hong Kong to participate in the competition in Beijing, learn from the judges, and communicate with other 125 students. From the research questions and comprehensive quality inspections, the judges not only affirmed my research, He also provided a lot of valuable advice, such as the future development direction of the study, areas for improvement, etc. This made me truly understand that scientific research is a long journey, and only by persevering, self-reflection and self-examination can we make continuous improvements and make the study more Perfect. At the same time, I am very fortunate to have met some like-minded classmates. Although the fields of science we study are different, I believe that we will meet again in the same field of science in the future and spark new sparks.”
