As long as we can consolidate the social private economic foundation, the Sino-foreign cooperation and development can endow our economy with powerful vitality. As an overseas Chinese entrepreneur, I should give full scope to all advantages and actively coordinate with the overall national foreign affairs strategy to continue to expand the non-government communication and connection, participate in the public foreign affairs. China’s development cannot go without the world. Likewise, the world development cannot go without China.

In 2014, Yihai Group conducted repeated field investigations to Serbia and followed Premier Li Keqiang for his second visit to Serbia in December 2014 to build the new platform for mutual benefit and win-win cooperation.
