Here I represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the National People's Congress, the State Council, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and the Central Military Commission, in paying the highest respects to all the veterans, the old comrades, patriots and the military officers who took part in the war against the Japanese, as well as to the sons and daughters of China here at home and overseas who made a big contribution to the victory in the Chinese People’s War Against Japanese Aggression! And to express sincere thanks to the foreign governments and international friends who supported or assisted the Chinese people in resisting the invasion! And we’d like to express an enthusiastic welcome to all the guests and army friends from countries around the world who have come to attend this event today!

Yes, as long as you know you're in the wrong! I'm such a magnanimous person that I won't hold it against you. I even gave you an opportunity to admit your error tonight! Agh! It was only tonight that I realized that what makes a top quality red wine rare and expensive isn't just the year of production. Wine doesn't always taste better with age... eh!
