An important reason we chose flowers was that it was Valentine's Day in the Chinese lunar calendar. Expressing love with flowers is a relatively common way for modern young people. On this day, many couples choose to eat in restaurants, go shopping, and watch movies as a way of dating. Considering that the place they usually go to should be a commercial area, we specially selected the place to sell flowers in Sanlitun, the most prosperous commercial area in Beijing.

On that day, we bought more than 50 flowers from the flower market and put them in cups to make them look better, we named them "Cup Rose". At the same time, we have prepared postcards printed with our team's promotion, so customers who buy flowers can write some words to send to the people they want to send the flowers to. But we also encountered some difficulties in the process of fundraising. Since it was a Thursday, many lovers may have just finished a tiring day at work, so our sales were not very good at first. It was a very hot day in Beijing, but the players overcame the difficulties and took to the streets to carry out the charity sale. Our bazaar went well and we managed to make some money.

What excites us is that compared to fundraising, our members were able to overcome their shyness and bravely introduce our projects and products to everyone, which is already a very big achievement. In the future, we will use the money to popularize synthetic biology to the public, such as printing some posters and making brochures in the future education campaigns.
