Chinese President Xi Jinping has said that China’s door to American businesses would “open up” further as he met major American CEOs in Beijing during a summit with US President Donald Trump.
Trump introduced the business leaders accompanying him to Xi as the Chinese president hosted the US delegation at the Great Hall of the People, China’s ceremonial state building on Thursday, according to the state-run news agency Xinhua.
The US business delegation accompanying Trump includes Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Tesla’s Elon Musk, Apple’s Tim Cook, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman, Boeing’s Kelly Ortberg, Cargill’s Brian Sikes, Citigroup’s Jane Fraser, GE Aerospace’s Larry Culp, Goldman Sachs’ David Solomon, Micron’s Sanjay Mehrotra and Qualcomm’s Cristiano Amon.
Business leaders expressed hope to deepen their operations in China and strengthen cooperation with the country.
Xi said US companies have been deeply involved in China’s reform and opening up, and that both sides have benefited from the relationship.
