The group got their invites by displaying entrepreneurship in the Talents Meets Bertelsmann (TMB) China workshop 2012 to enter the final. They stood out from hundreds of applicants around the country. At dinner they were encouraged to fire questions at the CEOs and produce creative reports based on the information collected during the dinner. 這組學(xué)生憑借在2012“貝塔斯曼校園達(dá)人” （Talent Meets Bertelsmann,以下簡(jiǎn)稱(chēng)TMB）商業(yè)策劃大賽中的創(chuàng)業(yè)展示，最終晉級(jí)決賽，從而獲得了邀請(qǐng)。他們從來(lái)自全國(guó)各地的數(shù)百名參賽者中脫穎而出。在晚餐過(guò)程中，主辦方鼓勵(lì)他們向CEO們發(fā)出一連串的提問(wèn)，并根據(jù)晚宴上收集到的信息撰寫(xiě)一份創(chuàng)新報(bào)告。
