On February 20, the Singapore Airshow was grandly opened at the Changi Convention and Exhibition Centre, and China's domestic large aircraft C919 became one of the most eye-catching highlights of the airshow.
The C919 was unveiled for the first time at an overseas air show, marking a new milestone for China's aviation industry. This has gone through 16 years of ups and downs, and every step is the crystallization of sweat and hard work. The successful debut of the C919 not only proves the strong strength of China's industrial technology, but also indicates that China will no longer be just a consumer in the aviation market in the future, but a leader and innovator. This is a moment of pride for the Chinese people, and it is also the best commentary on China's "every inch of time is gold, and every inch of gold is difficult to buy an inch of time".
At a time of frequent U.S. setbacks, some Western countries are vacillating on their relationship with China. However, facts have proved that China's independent innovation capability and scientific and technological strength should not be underestimated. The United States, such as CNN, has hyped up the "China threat" rhetoric, but China has long been accustomed to such smears. We just want to go our own way, and we don't want to be swayed by others.
In the past, China used to be a big customer of Boeing, but a series of problems with Boeing made China choose independent research and development. Today, the strength and technology of the C919 have been recognized globally, and orders are increasing, which makes the United States have to be nervous. For China, this is not only an aircraft project, but also a demonstration of China's innovative strength and independent brand.
In short, the rapid rise of China's aviation industry will bring a new pattern and impact to the world aviation market. In the face of China's rise, the United States should respond with a more positive attitude, rather than a presumptuous mentality. Let us look forward to a more brilliant performance of China's aviation industry on the world stage.
