During the tour, there are some hot debates which brought up with new fresh ideas. For example, in Ailao Mountain Ecological Field Station, Liao Chencan, a staff of the field station, had a fierce ideological collision on the issue of "species or habitats, which one should we protect?" with the team, the two sides held their own and argued against each other. Through this debate, members gained a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of the issue.
