Dr. Su Hua, President of Greater China Region, Infineon Technologies

The successful organization of the 3rd CIIE amid the pandemic underlines China's strong commitment to further open up and promote economic globalization. In his keynote speech, President Xi emphasized again China's dual circulation economic strategy, which takes the domestic market as the mainstay and allows domestic and foreign markets to boost each other. This translates into greater demand and more opportunities for both domestic and foreign companies. We observe the further development of the Chinese market with great optimism. Infineon will announce its new investment in China at CIIE, aiming to explore huge opportunities in this promising market.

President Xi Jinping's opening speech for the CIIE mentioned that the CIIE is a global trade conference where products from all over the world are shown off, displaying the potential of China's market for the world to see and showing China's genuine desire to support the recovery of the global economy. We believe that China holding such a large-scale event in the middle of an ongoing global pandemic is a sign of confidence and demonstrates a sense of responsibility.

Last year was our first year at the CIIE. We achieved amazing results there, and sensed that the CIIE was truly a fantastic opportunity for us to help accelerate China's development and increase investment. We are very pleased to see that China will continue to optimize its business environment through strengthening intellectual property rights, safeguarding the legal rights of MNCs, and improving business services.

I am very excited to see that against the background of fighting against COVID-19 pandemic and revitalizing the Chinese economy, the third China International Import Expo (CIIE) is held as scheduled. This sent to the world a strong signal of openness, inclusiveness, collaboration and mutual prosperity, while also showing the resilience and vitality of the Chinese economy, as President Xi stated. Meanwhile, CIIE provides foreign enterprises with great opportunities in China to enhance communication with more domestic and foreign partners, jointly creating a future of mutual benefit and win-win results.

At the opening ceremony of this CIIE, President Xi Jinping emphasized that the new development pattern proposed by China is by no means a closed domestic cycle, but a more open domestic and international dual cycle. In the next step, China will unswervingly expand its opening-up. This reflects that China shares market opportunities with the world and promotes the world. The sincere desire for economic recovery will greatly boost the confidence of Chinese and foreign investors. This year marks AbbVie's debut at CIIE. AbbVie looks forward to embracing the "Chinese Opportunity" and accelerating the introduction of more innovative blockbusters to the Chinese market in form of Asia-Pacific debut or even the global premiere.

Congratulations to China on the successful commencement of the third China International Import Expo. Holding this important event as scheduled is a signal of China's rapid recovery from the pandemic. CIIE shows China's determination to share its infinite opportunities with the world, and to foster openness and mutual benefit.

In our diverse and volatile world, CIIE offers a valuable platform to come together to create and share a brighter future. I have been immensely privileged to attend the past two CIIEs, both of which I am sure exceeded the expectations of those who organized them, and those who attended them. So it is with great regret that because of COVID-19 I have been unable to attend this year's event. My colleagues have told me of President Xi Jinping's insightful and far-sighted remarks at the opening ceremony.

Under his inspirational leadership, there can be no doubt about China's continued progress as it recovers from the pandemic and overcomes any challenges it faces in the future. In fact, the CIIE itself has become a beacon of reassurance about China's future.

As COVID-19 continues to spread worldwide, the successful offline hosting of the CIIE showcases the Chinese government's confidence in its fight against the pandemic, and its impressive organizational capabilities. It further underscores the important message that China remains committed to opening itself up to the outside world, strengthening exchanges and cooperation with other countries, and sharing the fruits of trade and economic development. Through participation in the first two CIIEs, AstraZeneca has significantly benefitted from the spillover and driving effects of the CIIE to make remarkable headway in the Chinese market.

President Xi Jinping's speech is very impressive and expressed the commitment of China to the world. CIIE is a namecard of China's continuous opening-up. Especially as he mentioned China will further open up with high quality. It shows the door of China will be opened wider to international business community. As a member of the multinational corporations in China, Knorr-Bremse appreciates CIIE as one of the most top-notch and impactful platforms in China and world. 2020 is a special year with significant challenges worldwide.

The 2020 CIIE is the worldwide economic and trade activity held by China since the outbreak of the epidemic. It issues a positive signal that China adheres to economic globalization and strengthens international economic and trade cooperation. It helps global enterprises to strengthen international exchanges, obtain new orders and expand new markets, which will play a positive role in reducing the impact of the epidemic and promoting economic recovery.

China's rolling stock industry in both high speed railways and metro markets has rapidly developed in the last 15 years, which is a significant success beyond any other countries. The momentum is expected to continue and therefore offers a high potential and huge opportunity for multinational corporations in China.

It is sending a positive signal, restoring people's confidence in the global economic recovery, and further injecting the "China momentum" into the process of promoting an open world economy.

No matter how the external environment changes, what remains the same is our original aspiration of "Advancing Science for Life".
