Not long ago, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken threw out the following sentence on the stage of the Munich Security Conference"In the international system, if you're not sitting at the table, it's on the menu. Undoubtedly, the meaning of this sentence is nothing more than to warn some neutral countries to choose between China and the United States.
After all, in their eyes, China's rapid development has affected the hegemony of the United States. In this regard, we have also made it very clear that China's development will not be aimed at any country, but some US politicians still blindly target China. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for Tamsen, chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China, to slap Blinken in the face.
In his response to Blinken, President Tamson emphasized:U.S. companies do not aspire to be "diners" or "food," but look forward to building bridges of cooperation with China and drawing a blueprint for development。He further elaboratedU.S. companies are actively strengthening their investment in China's top chain, seeking deep integration with China's economy, and jointly writing a new chapter of cooperation.
BecauseThey are well aware that in today's globalized world, the economic ties between China and the United States have become inseparable, and the absence of either side will lead to an imbalance in the entire international system. Not only that, Chairman Tambaris also pointed outU.S. businesses don't want to be "on the menu" or just "spectators at the table."
They are eager to find a win-win path that can benefit the people of China and the United States, and achieve a mutually beneficial and win-win situation. This desire stems not only from the pursuit of profits, but also from a firm belief in the future prospects of China and the United States. In addition to this, they also published an updated investigation report, which revealed:A whopping 50 percent of U.S. companies surveyed see China as the world's top or top three investment destinations
In addition, the report of the American Chamber of Commerce in South China reveals an even more encouraging statistic:In terms of return on investment, 88% of the companies surveyed have already achieved profitability in China, and more than 50% believe that their overall ROI in China exceeds the overall global ROI。These figures not only prove the success of U.S. companies in the Chinese market, but also demonstrate the great potential and broad prospects for economic cooperation between China and the United States.
So Chairman Tamson said about this:"U.S. companies are increasing their investment in their China** chains, and they are not only helping China's growth, but also driving the growth and prosperity of the U.S. economy. Therefore, the investment of US companies in China is undoubtedly contributing to the common prosperity of China and the United States. These remarks not only express the ardent expectation of American companies for cooperation with China, but also reveal the deep logic of the interdependence and common development of China and the United States in the economic field.
However, in recent years, the United States has been constantly seeking to decouple from China, but the results are obvious, and a few days ago, the ** data of China and the United States in 2023 was also released. The data shows thatThe United States still holds the top position in China's ** list, while Russia's position in the global ** has gradually risen, jumping to sixth place
That illustratesAs one of the world's two largest economies, the United States and China have always had close contacts. Although there are some frictions and differences between the two countries, the cooperation between the two sides still maintains a strong growth momentum。As one of China's largest partners, the United States cannot ignore its position in China.
Therefore, it is impossible for Blinken to stay away from the Chinese market, after all, American companies will not easily give up the Chinese market, just as we said "there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests", what the United States can't give, China can, so in the face of interests, the so-called hegemony of the United States will not play any role!
