BEIJING(INP) Global business and opinion leaders shared their views about Chinese President Xi Jinping’s keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the B20 Summit in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, stating it paved the way of development worldwide.
\n“China would work with other parties to ensure that the Hangzhou summit comes up with an integrated prescription to help the world economy move along a path of strong, sustainable, balanced and inclusive growth,” Xi said.
\nAccording to Clare Pearson, chairwoman of British Chamber of Commerce in China, the speech of President Xi shows China is moving from sideline to central in global governance. By literally and metaphorically building bridges across the new Silk Road, China will share its prosperity with the world.
\nI think the keynote of the speech is ‘quality, not quantity’. I think all companies need to clean their mind and adopt this philosophy for sustainable business.
\nHasan Abdullah, senior news editor of the Turkish Radio and Television said, President Xi talked about more integration, opening up to the world. If you look at the last decade, policies made in China are quite amazing. Xi also mentioned that 700 million people have been taken out of poverty (since the reform and opening-up), it’s very significant.
\nYang Yuanqing, CEO of Lenovo Group, world’s largest PC maker said he noticed in President Xi’s speech words like “innovation” and “growth” are mentioned frequently. President Xi has great expectations for Chinese business circles, which cheers us up a lot. The most important subject under discussion at the summit is to realize the innovative pattern of growth.
\nRobin Li, CEO of Baidu Inc, China’s search giant said he was very impressed with President Xi repeatedly talking about “innovation”. Innovation is not only the key driving force of China’s new normal economy, but also the source of new world economic growth.
\nAs what Xi said, the internet-centered, new scientific and technological industrial revolution is on the way; new technologies will change people’s lives dramatically; and emerging industries and technological innovation will revitalize the world economy. Governments and enterprises in all countries should deeply cooperate with each other in the platforms, resources, talents and policies and join hands to push forward innovative development. According to Jing Xiandong, CEO of Ant Financial, Alibaba’s financial arm,
\nPresident Xi mentioned “innovation” and “inclusiveness” many times in his speech. China advocates a global economy that features innovation and tolerance. I am greatly impressed by that. The speech prescribes remedies for the global economy and points out the direction of development.
\nThe world is looking for the new economic motivation and the innovation incentive is the only way to make the global economy recover. To build an inclusive and open world economy is also meaningful and exciting. Inclusive finance is indispensable for the development of the global economy.
\nGarret Wallace Brown, Department of Politics at the University of Sheffield, the UK said President Xi used the phrase “win-win” almost fifteen times during his speech, which set the tone that there should no longer be a few elite counties making economic progress, there should be much more distributed across the globe. It needs a certain amount of commitment from the G20.
\nJia Yueting, CEO of LeEco, one of the biggest online video companies in China said the Chinese economy and Chinese businessmen play more important roles on the stage of world economy. The Chinese economy has become an essential motive force for the world economy. I feel very proud.
\nPresident Xi said technical innovation is the key to economic growth and the Internet is the core of the new technical and industrial revolution. LeEco, as one of the innovation internet company, is inspired.
\nMiguel Angel, editor of Mexico’s Journal Mundo said, China, as the second largest economy in the world, should play a more important role in world economic governance. I’m looking forward to seeing measures that China will be taken in further opening up. In the same time, I hope China can successfully deal with some controversial issues, such as territorial disputes, on the grounds of seeking common ground while maintaining difference, and push forward world economic growth along with other countries.”
\nLiu Qingfeng, chairman of IFLYTEK Co Ltd, a technology startup in the research of intelligent speech and language technologies said President Xi’s special mention of artificial intelligence (AI) is a great encouragement for people engaged in AI technologies and the AI industry.
\nAI is one of the greatest dreams of mankind, and will be a technological revolution that will produce the most profound impact on man’s economic development and social life in the next 30 years.
\nAccording to Nicholas Daviesjones, the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation, Turkey’s national public broadcaster, the development in China is huge. China is playing a more important role in the global economy system. China is becoming more and more competitive in the world economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
