It is of great significance to host the Global Trade and Investment Promotion Summit again this year. He Lifeng pointed out: with the accelerated evolution of major changes not seen in the world in a century, the world economy is facing not only the urgent need for post-epidemic recovery, but also the interweaving and superposition of multiple challenges and crises. Communist Party of China's 20th National Congress drew a grand blueprint for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, and China's economy is facing new opportunities for development. China has become a force of certainty and stability in the recovery of the world economy and the development of international trade and investment, and is bound to create more opportunities for the world through its own development. He Lifeng pointed out that China's development is inseparable from the world, and the world's development also needs China. China adheres to the basic state policy of opening up to the outside world, firmly pursues a win-win strategy of opening up, and promotes the building of an open world economy. We are willing to work with the international community to strengthen communication and exchanges, deepen practical cooperation, jointly expand the "cake" of trade, stimulate the momentum of investment cooperation, promote innovation-driven development, and promote the reform of global economic governance. It is hoped that the international community will make concerted efforts to accelerate the development of international trade and investment and inject strong impetus into the recovery of the world economy.
