20 13 May 8th is the countdown to the 2nd Asian Youth Games 100. The Purple Mountain Observatory was misty and rainy, and the flame collection ceremony of Nanjing Asian Youth Games was held here. Finally, the sacred flame was collected in the way of "drilling wood to make fire", and Nanjing "Four Little Phoenix" served as the "saint" to make fire.

Ji Jianye, Vice Chairman of the Organizing Committee of Nanjing Asian Youth Games and Mayor of Nanjing, announced the start of the flame. With the slow and vigorous music beat, 10 smiling white "saints" slowly walked up the steps of Tianbao City and entered the ceremony of lighting fire. The fire collector uses a wooden drill to collect fire; Sifeng, from the middle school attached to Nanjing University of the Arts, walked slowly to the place where wood was drilled for fire, with a matchstick in her hand. Two minutes later, four fire sticks were successfully ignited. Four phoenixes collectively lit the brazier; The flame was blazing in the cauldron, and three flame guards introduced the flame into the flame lamp. Then, the torch light left under the escort of the guards to complete the collection ceremony of the physical torch.
