4月18日至28日，2013中美投资博览会将在纽约、洛杉矶等地举办，这将是中美企业之间的一次盛事，必将为推动中美两国友好和共同发展做出自己的贡献。为此本刊记者采访了环球时报美国公司执行董事、中国日报（美国）发行人兼本次博览会副主席江启光先生。

记者：请问您作为副主席对举办中美投资博览会有怎样的考量和认识？

江启光：今天的中美关系对双方来说都是最重要的双边关系之一，而中美经贸和经济合作又是这一关系最重要的内容和组成部分。我认为，中美两国没有理由不挣脱历史和文化的束缚，没有理由不冲破信仰和语言的阻碍，因为只有理解才能共存，才能发展。本次举办2013中美投资博览会的宗旨是为中美两国中小企业的国际交流合作搭建一个民间的平台，整合中美两地资源，在国际经济格局变化中创造并把握商机，弘扬中美企业精神，宣传中美企业文化，并且推动中美之间的互相理解和经济融合，为中美企业和企业家的国际运作提供综合性的服务。

此次赴美的中国企业涉及教育、环保、食品、地产、休闲娱乐等行业，通过博览会这个平台，美方相应的企业亦将赴会寻求合作商机。 

记者：您觉得通过博览会的举办，中美双方的参会企业将会得到什么？

江启光：我个人感受最大的一点就是中美的中小企业家彼此有那种互补互惠的刚性需求，中国企业家通过博览会不仅开阔了视野、而且增强了在海外拓展的信心。这次交流活动是一次平等交流的活动，美国企业家也有了更直观了解中国企业动向的机会，我觉得从这个意义上讲，开启了中美经济交流多元化、尤其是中小企业多样性民间交流的一个窗口。

中美投资博览会是一个非常好的平台，一是民间的特性，二是中小企业。从美国方面讲奥巴马政府鼓励美国的中小企业出口增加或者增加进口。因此中美投资博览会是一个是主题很好的经贸交流活动，符合两国宏观经济政策。这种民间企业的交流，首先起的就是对接的作用，在对接的基础上，大家才能建立由一个窗口到门口的合作，我觉得这非常重要，无论是中国企业家还是美国企业家通过这个窗口可以看到对方，通过认真了解之后，走到真正的合作门口。

我认为中国企业到美国来投资的最大担心是缺乏对美国相关过程的了解。美国有《外国投资和国家安全法》，对外商投资会有种种限制。而此次博览会就会为与会中国企业搭建起了解相关问题的窗口。

我真诚的希望本次博览会能为促进中国企业真正走出去，有效建立企业与海外交流互动的平台，推动企业视野国际化、技术合作国际化、产品销售国际化。?

Put Up A Red Ribbon For China-US Enterprise

—— Interview the co-chair of China-US Investment Expo Qiguang, Jiang

                                                                                                                                                             Written by Geng Guobiao

April 18 to 28, the 2013 China-US Investment Expo will be held in New York, Los Angeles and other cities. It is an event between China and American enterprises to promote the Sino-US friendship and common development. Our journalist interviewed the co-chair of exposition Mr. Jiang.

Journalist: As the co-chair of exposition, how do you realize China-US Investment Expo?

Mr. Jiang:  The Sino-US relationship is one of the most important bilateral relations, which the trade and economic cooperation is an integral part of this relationship. I think China and the United States have no reason not to break the shackles of history and culture; there is no reason not to break the beliefs and language barriers. Only the understandings can co-development.

The 2013 China-US Investment Expo aims to build a private platform for international exchanges and cooperation between our small and medium-sized enterprises, integrate resources of both sides, grasp the business opportunities in the international economic pattern change, carry forward the spirit of enterprise, promote Sino-China corporate culture, promote mutual understanding and economic integration between China and the United States and provide comprehensive services for the international operation of enterprises and entrepreneurs.  

The visiting Chinese enterprises involved in education, environmental protection, food, real estate, leisure and entertainment industry. Through the Expo platform, the relevant enterprises will be to seek cooperation opportunities. 

Journalist: In your opinion, what both sides of enterprises will want to get from the Expo?

Mr. Jiang: Surely what strikes me most is demand reciprocity of Sino-US entrepreneurs. Through the Expo, Chinese entrepreneurs is not only broaden a vision, but also enhanced in the confidence of overseas expansion. This activities is an equal exchange, however, America entrepreneurs also have a more intuitive understanding of Chinese enterprises. I think it will open the Sino-US economic exchange diversification, especially for non-governmental exchanges among small and medium-sized enterprise.

China-US Investment Expo is a good platform due to both characteristics of folk and small-medium enterprises. From the United States respects, Obama government encourages American small businesses increase in exports or imports. Therefore the exposition is a good theme of economic and trade exchanges which consist with their macroeconomic policies. The first role of folk exchange companies is the joint. In this basis, we can set up cooperation from the window to door. I think this is very important, after carefully understanding, whether Chinese or American entrepreneurs can see each other through the window and enter the real cooperation door. 

I think the biggest worry of Chinese enterprises to invest in the United States is the lack of the related understanding of the process. The United States has Foreign Investment and National Security Act restricts on foreign investment. The Expo will build related window to understand the issues for the Chinese enterprises.

I sincerely hope that the Expo effectually promote Chinese enterprises to established overseas interaction platform for enterprise international vision, technical cooperation and product sales internationalization.
