Chinese translator Zhang Jing has earned a lot of fans on Chinese social media following her solid performance and accurate translation at the high-level China-US meeting in Alaska on Friday, leading to applause for the Chinese female diplomatic personnel taking part in the mission.
The highlight of Zhang's interpretation came when she smoothly translated several speeches by the Chinese delegation that were

Zhang, who graduated from
China Foreign Affairs University, has been praised on Chinese social media for
"fully showing the elegant demeanor of China's diplomats in the new era."
According to a media interview with Zhang's high school teacher, Zhang had been capable to enter top Chinese universities like Peking University and Tsinghua University, but she chose to go to China Foreign Affairs University to one day serve her country at the ministry of foreign affairs.

Does any one know WHERE to watch the full footage of the Chinese delegation's rebuff with the full English translation by Zhang Jing, which I read lasting about 10-18 minutes. The parts covering Yang Jiechi said that in front of the Chinese side,
the US is not qualified to speak to China from a position of strength. And Wang Yi said that
"the old habit of US hegemonic behavior of willfully interfering in China's internal affairs must be changed."
I just saw a partial clip and most are news reporting, not the live coverage of this rebuff. Thx
