Victor Chan, Agilent global vice president, general manager of Agilent Greater China

The keynote speech at the opening ceremony shows China's resolve to continue opening up at a high standard and the country's determination to share development opportunities with the rest of the world, bringing us the energy and confidence to develop in China.

The high-level opening up that China is advancing not only reflects the ongoing and continuous efforts of the Chinese government to meet people's growing needs for a better life, but also benefits all participants across the globe. It binds us to a brighter future, which is also in line with the global value of seeing the world as 'a community with a shared future for mankind.'

Agilent is both a participant and beneficiary of the CIIE. This year marks our fourth appearance here, we hope to express our firm aspirations to all parties: we are willing to align ourselves with the long-term goal of Chinese-style modernization.
