* 开场白：
Good morning friends! Today is Thursday, February 1st.
Before we begin today’s episode, I wanna apologize for the delay. I was out of town for a few days and just got back yesterday. For those who are going to travel for the holidays, please be prepared. The railway station is now completed packed with travelers. I am sure the airport won’t be any different. For many, this CNY might the first time that we actually travel like we used to. So, enjoy traveling.
