Before I came here this morning, my friend warned me,

反身代名詞

"Be careful if you want to make fun of yourself by saying you're made in China,

people may associate you with cheap and poor quality products."

"Well, I can't deny that I look Chinese, and I trust I'm good quality,

I could be good quality, and I was striving to be good quality."

my generation live with a story of China's prosperity

to learn English, to use computers, and Internet.

This is the typical story happening in China at that time:

US multinational Coca-Cola started a factory in China,

McDonald's started the first store in Beijing,

US giant Ford started a joint venture with a Chinese auto maker.

My dream at that time was to work for one of the joint ventures

set up by the American multinational companies in China.

My dream later landed me into an opportunity to work as a TV newscaster

as it launched its first international channel

to tell the stories happening in China to the global audience.

my typical newscast was about the over 10% economic growth in China

After being a China's storyteller for a few years to the outside world,

I one day decided to go out to America to explore the real outside world.

I still remember very vividly that about ten years ago,

I finished my last newscast, bid farewell to my studio,

and boarded on an airplane to come to America to study.

my mind was full of imagination and excitement

about what my life will be across the ocean.

I was imagining that I can sit in a class at Harvard Yard,

I can climb on top of the Empire State Building,

my journey has been far beyond just studying.

While I was enjoying my classes at Harvard Yard,

about how China will emerge as a rival or a competitor to America.

While I was climbing the Empire State Building,

that the skyscrapers nearby are becoming the favorite for Chinese investors.

When China was trying to innovate its 'Made in China' products,

there was concern in America whether there is a rising threat.

I know that economic landscape has been changing dramatically across the globe.

the journeys of US and China have been more intertwined,

China has become the second largest economy in the world,

and bilateral trade investment has been growing exponentially,

that Chinese investment in America has surpassed the US investment in China,

The factories set up by American multinational companies in China in 1990s

are now becoming the strategic partners of American corporations

Some Chinese enterprises are also venturing out

to test the waters of the international markets

contributing to American economy and supporting 80,000 American jobs.

There are noises bouncing back and forth, too:

The most recent China-led AIIB bank, which in US is absent,

and the US-led TPP, which in China is absent,

Why made-in-China products can not be high-end innovations?

Why US and China have to be rivals or competitors?

as the engine for global prosperity or the threat for global security?

What are the ways that US and China can work together and collaborate?

The burning desire to understand the new era of US-China's relations

have forced me to foray in the world of entrepreneurship

That is why I started "Innovation Ideas Institute,"

a think-tank to fill our society with ideas and knowledge,

with especial [lens] on our young generation

that has led the new China and new America in this globalization era;

and to inspire the world of academics, policy, and business

about critical issues that they might otherwise ignore.

We engage talents, ideas, energy from both US and China

to generate balance programs to foster interdisciplinary innovation.

We bring together policy makers, business leaders

to explore shared opportunities for mutual prosperity.

We bring thinkers and doers between US and China
