At the opening of the China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai on Wednesday, the Chinese premier Li Qiang painted a vivid picture of economic cooperation. 'The world economy and China's economy are like oceans,' he said, recalling the words of Chinese President Xi Jinping. 'Oceans are interconnected, and CIIE is the place where the two meet.'
With that statement, Li underscored the expo's role as a vital bridge linking China with the world. For entrepreneurs, startups, and international delegates, the event offers a stage where ideas, goods, and services flow across borders.
In an era of digital innovation and shifting supply chains, the CIIE's promise of open markets resonates with young global citizens and tech enthusiasts eager to tap into emerging opportunities. Whether it's forging sustainable partnerships or discovering cutting-edge products, the expo highlights how interconnected our economies have become.
As seas of visitors converge in Shanghai, CIIE stands as a reminder: in a world of shared challenges and ambitions, platforms like this bring us closer, aligning global demand with local dynamism and charting a course for collaborative growth.
