Schwarzenegger made his remarks in a speech Tuesday morning, a day after a ceremonial event where he and his wife, Maria Shriver, were briefly 'mobbed' by photographers and fans.
The Republican governor was introduced by former President Bush, whose public policy school at Texas A&M University was sponsoring a China-U.S. relations conference.
"When your old boss calls you, you immediately say yes," Schwarzenegger joked of his appearance at the conference.
