A total of 24 teams with nearly 100 contestants participated in the final, including well-known universities in China such as the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and Southwest Jiaotong University, as well as one university from Russia. Through several months of research on various countries and investigation on the topics of cross-border e-commerce, park cities, sports diplomacy, and Chinese and foreign vocational education, Chinese youth show themselves in the field of diplomacy to the world from a global perspective. After the preparation, investigation, cross-border online meetings, and postponement of the pandemic, one gold award, three silver awards, and six bronze awards were announced in the final of the 2022 IFEC. Blue Ocean, a student team from the College of Foreign Languages and Cultures of Chengdu University (CDU), participated in the competition on the topic of the ecological sports park. It won the gold award for good performance in speech performance, language expression, posture and image, teamwork, and comprehensive impression. Shen Xiangru, a member of Blue Ocean, was selected into the top 18 outstanding youth envoys of 2022 IFEC from 100 contestants.

The Blue Ocean team consists of four girls who are enrolled in 2020 and major in English and business English from the College of Foreign Languages and Cultures of CDU, including Chief Commander Chen Sisi, Speaker Fu Ying, Media Officer Cai Liwen, and Financial Officer Shen Xiangru.
