As an internationally renowned children's best-selling author, Yonit came this time with her 41st work "Nobel Economics Comics for Children", which was recently published in China, to share her ideas and experiences with the little inventors present. She firmly believes that future talents should possess the important quality of "entrepreneurship". Through on-site interactive Q&A, she helps more children establish a correct concept of wealth, cultivate positive business thinking from an early age, and help children no longer feel confused about concepts such as "economy" and "business".

These innovation stories opened the young inventors' horizons and gave them an in-depth understanding of how to cleverly innovate technology. The "little inventors" present discussed issues related to innovation and entrepreneurship with Yonit. She encourages children to think and innovate with divergent thinking. In her view, parents should also try their best to help their children explore their creativity and support them to realize their ideas.
