Two days after the Final Coupe Mondiale Concert and Prizegiving, some of the CIA Executive still remained in Shanghai completing their tasks. CIA President Raymond Bodell was invited to meet with the Vice-President of the Shanghai Normal University Cong Yuhao and Lu Jianfei, Secretary of the Party Committee of SHNU, to offer his sincerest thanks for the wonderful support the University gave in hosting the Coupe Mondiale. The University provided three concert hall competition venues, CIA Office facilities and a large number of staff and assistants. Part of the thank you letter read: "Under the leadership of Prof. Li Cong, your Dean of the Music College and also President of the China Accordion Association and Zhao Jiping, President of the Chinese Musicians Association, the Chinese competitors made the quite remarkable achievement of winning one category plus achieving a 1st, 2nd or 3rd placing in 6 out of 7 categories of the Coupe Mondiale world international competitions. The Mayor of Shanghai Han Zheng attended the Opening Ceremony and the festival of more than 1,300 performers from the 29 accordion teams, appearing in squares, parks and business centers in Shanghai received lots of positive media coverage in newspapers, radio and TV. The Shanghai Normal University has every reason to very proud of how they have represented China to the highest of standards and promoted China around the world to all accordionists and musicians."
