Huishang Futures "Futures Knowledge Enters Campus" Event — Visiting Pingdingshan University

To deepen college students’ understanding of financial practice and build a new pathway for integrating industry and education, on May 22, with the support of the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange, Huishang Futures, together with Pingdingshan University, successfully held the university’s first “Futures Knowledge into Campus” event. The event received strong support from the School of Economics and Management of the university. The school publicized information about the 8th “ZCME Cup” competition to students, and, through a combined model of theoretical instruction and competition practice, promoted the deep integration of futures knowledge education into the national education system. A total of 123 students participated on-site.

During the event, Huishang Futures’ analyst first focused on the 8th “ZCME Cup” National College Students’ Financial Simulation Trading Competition, systematically explained the competition rules and operating procedures, emphasized the practical value of learning through competition, and encouraged students to deepen their professional understanding through simulated trading. From the launch of the commodities futures era at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 1848 to the introduction of a new epoch in financial derivatives with foreign exchange futures in 1972, the instructor also highlighted the development of the futures market, futures trading rules, and relevant laws and regulations. In the practical analysis segment, through a differentiated analysis of futures and forward contracts, the session explained core rules such as the margin system and the two-way trading mechanism. Combined with relevant laws and regulations, it also detailed practical points including opening an account, risk control, delivery, and settlement. Students actively participated and engaged enthusiastically. After the event, students actively asked questions about topics related to the competition, and Instructor Wu Piaopiao provided careful answers, creating a lively atmosphere on-site.

The 8th “ZCME Cup” National College Students’ Financial Simulation Trading Competition is guided by the Futures Regulatory Department of the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Youth League Committee of the China Securities Regulatory Commission. It is hosted by the Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange together with the China Futures Industry Association. The competition runs from May 11, 2025, through November 18. This “Futures Knowledge into Campus” event, through “competition-driven + theoretical foundation-building + regulatory guidance,” effectively strengthened enrolled students’ systematic understanding of how the futures market operates. Huishang Futures will continue to deepen cooperation between schools and enterprises, promoting collaborative innovation across “industry, academia, and research.” (Author: Wu Piaopiao Photography: Wang Wei)
