Representatives of medical and science fields from both countries attend the opening ceremony. 

The Australian lab is also expected to attract more startups in the happiness industry and become a reliable investment for people of both Adelaide and China. 

"It's a golden opportunity for Tsinghua University and TusHoldings to cooperate with South Australia, which is strong in science, agriculture and medical health, especially in psychology. Both Tsinghua University and TusHoldings are good at understanding startups and creating a suitable environment for them," said Chen.

"The cooperation is no coincidence. I have met with TusHoldings top managers three times before, both in China and in Adelaide. The H+Lab (Australia) was our goal and we have set up the cooperation with mutual understanding," said Jay Weatherill.
