Second, we expect to see more cooperation between Chinese and foreign companies in equipment technologies. For foreign equipment makers to expand their presence in the Chinese market, they need to localize their products. For example, the US company General Motors has been able to take a big share of the Chinese market through setting up joint ventures with Chinese companies and remodeling its vehicles according to road and climatic conditions in China. This has secured a growing market for the company in China.
I want to stress that such cooperation is voluntary and helps companies expand in the Chinese market and even in third countries. The Chinese government does not allow Chinese companies to impose mandatory technology transfer requirements on their foreign partners, still less will we tolerate infringements on intellectual property rights.
第三，关于“中国制造2025”有关领域，比如绿色发展领域，《巴黎协定》、世界贸易组织等都鼓励各国政府予以政策支持。只要是外国企业在中国注册，中国政府将给予同内资企业一样的政策支持。
Third, in areas of the Made-in-China 2025 strategy, such as green development, where both the Paris Agreement and WTO encourage governments to provide policy support, foreign-invested companies registered in China will enjoy the same policy incentives offered by the Chinese government as their Chinese counterparts.
现在对“中国制造2025”有一种误解，好像我们出台的这些政策，目的是将来不再购买国外装备了。第一，这是不可能的。因为这是一个全球化的世界，企业购买装备由它们自主选择。在这个开放的市场条件下应该给企业选择的权利。第二，任何一个国家都愿意提高本国装备的质量和水平，这本身无可非议。但是如果关起门来干，在全球化的条件下等于是“闭门造车”，是不行的。第三，像中国这样巨大的市场，产品质量和装备水平提高了，也必然会促进世界市场的扩大。
Now, let me address a misunderstanding about the Made-in-China 2025 strategy. To those people who seem to believe that the purpose of the relevant policies is to shut the door on imports of foreign equipment, let me say this: First, door-shutting is impossible. We live in a globalized world, where companies make their own choices about the equipment they want to purchase, and they should be given the right to do so in the open market. Second, it is natural for any country to want to make equipment of a higher quality. It is only that in a globalized world, this cannot be done with one’s doors closed. Third, given the size of the Chinese market, when China climbs up the quality ladder, this will also boost global demand for manufactured products and equipment.
