The Belt and Road Initiative is a medium－and long-term strategy that will further increase China's global influence. Hopefully, during the next few years, this strategy will produce great policy dividends, including investment opportunities in infrastructure construction, services and multiple industry chains.

Homegrown and multinational corporations need to expand overseas and conduct exchanges and cooperation to better complement each other's advantages. We expect multinationals－which hold inherent advantages in technology, standards and services－to actively take part in the initiative and drive economic development.
