I am sorry, my English is far better than your English, so I look forward to a dialogue with you. This is my first visit to China, I saw the breadth of the country that you feel very excited. Here in Shanghai, we have seen remarkable growth, high-rise towers, busy streets, as well as entrepreneurial spirit. These are all signs of China entered the 21st century, let me praise. At the same time I am also eager to see us show the Chinese ancient monuments, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow I will go to Beijing to see magnificent Forbidden City and the breathtaking Great Wall, the country only has a rich history, there are high hopes for the future信念.

The same is true of the relationship between our two countries and Shanghai in the history of US-China relations is meaningful major city in 30 years ago, the "Shanghai Communique" opened our two governments and two peoples and interact on a new chapter.

However, the U.S. ties with that country can be traced back more distant past, dating back to the early American, George Washington organized the launching ceremony of the Queen, the ship successfully to the Qing Dynasty, Washington would like to see the boat go over the to forge new ties with China. Hope that China will open up new horizons, create new partnerships. In the subsequent two centuries, the history of our bilateral relations to a torrent in many different directions, but even in the most turbulent in the direction of our two peoples to build deep, and even dramatic ties, such as the Americans will never forget that during World War II, U.S. pilots shot down over China, the local people for their hospitality, Chinese citizens risked the danger of losing everything covered with them.

And to participate in World War II veterans are still welcome return visit of the U.S. veterans, where they entered the war. 40 years ago, we opened up between the two countries yet another link between the two countries relations began to thaw, thaw in the relationship through the table tennis competition. Between our two countries have differences, but we also share a common humanity and shared a common curiosity, like a ping-pong the same manner, that the state is the same, but has brought this small beginning of the "Shanghai Communique" come out, eventually also brought the United States established diplomatic relations in 1979. In the subsequent 30 years, we have made considerable progress in 1979 US-China trade 50 billion dollars, has now more than 400 billion U.S. dollars.
