CIIC officials color the eyes of the boats before the competition.
A dragon-boat race was staged as a special “birthday gift” to the Party.
In honor of the 98th anniversary of the Communist Party of China, the 14th CIIC Cup Fitness Competition for World-Renowned Enterprises in China was held at the Shanghai Water Sports Center in Qingpu District with 22 teams competing.
The amateur teams represented the host company, China International Intellectech Corporation (CIIC), and nearly 20 foreign companies, such as IBM, Intel and Morgan Stanley.
The No. 1 CIIC Shanghai Team won the champion, while CIIC’s foreign enterprise service branch and the No.2 CIIC Shanghai Team took the second and third places.
Dragon boat races allow competitors from different companies to unite as one, said Bu Yulong, Party secretary and chairman of CIIC.
