At the Milan press conference, CCTV host Shao Shengyi couldn’t help praising it as “the champion of the cute category”. His exact words were: “They are the winner of the category of the most adorable, the cutest.” His English compliment was so smooth that our editor has quietly recited it 10 times, ready to keep it in mind forever! Both guests and the audience at the scene were utterly charmed by it. Even Wu Dajing, the short-track speed skating world champion, couldn’t resist taking a photo with our Mini Pi+.
