Han Geng, the singer, dancer and actor known as 'the most influential male celebrity in China' delivered last Saturday a speech that motivated the new generation of aspiring Chinese business leaders. Hundreds of fans were inspired by the words of one of the most famous and influential Chinese men of our time. The event was hosted in support of the LSBF HOPE foundation, a charity which aims to give young people the chance to achieve their dreams and career goals.

Known as "King of Popularity" and having won the MTV's EMA 'Best Worldwide Act', Han Geng is one of the most influential artists in China. During his speech, Han Geng showed how his way to the top was a story of struggle, fighting and striving to succeed overseas. His fans were able to discover the "man behind the success" and be inspired by Han Geng's story.

The event was hosted at the Westminster Central Hall, one of the most impressive venues in London. Before Han Geng's speech, the audience had the chance to listen to the Director at LSBF School of English, Fay Drewry, who spoke about the challenges of studying and living in a foreign country, and the importance that English plays in the world today. The audience also watched a fashion show with the creations of students from the London College of Contemporary Arts and from the School of Fashion and Design London.

Han Geng was received at the stage by LSBF's Rector and CEO, Professor Maurits Van Rooijen, who presented him with an Award of Appreciation for his support to the LSBF HOPE cause.

Members of the LSBF Board were at the event giving students the chance to learn more on how investing in education can help them to achieve more and take their careers further.

The entire amount raised with donations at the event will be reverted to LSBF HOPE Foundation, which will be used for investing in charity schools in China.
