　　Facing the gate of the main venue of Boao Forum for Asia, the visual exhibition commemorating the 40th anniversary of China’s reform and opening up with the theme of "New Era and New Journey" has made people walk through 40 years in light and shadow.

　　In Boao, reform and opening up are China and the world in the minds of foreign guests — — Chris Marin, president of American Lena International Company, told Guangming Daily that China’s development in the past few decades has benefited from reform and opening up.

China’s practice in the past 40 years can provide some useful lessons."

We should take the opportunity of celebrating the 40th anniversary of the reform and opening up to the outside world, open the way on every mountain, bridge the gap when encountering water, and carry out the reform to the end.

　　In the past five years, the changes in China have been profound and fundamental. The main contradiction in our society has been transformed into the contradiction between the people’s growing need for a better life and the unbalanced development. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, facing many new tasks and challenges.

　　The reform and opening up since 1978 is a key measure to determine the fate of contemporary China. Forty years later, China planned and promoted reform from a higher starting point. Different from the state of "crossing the river by feeling the stones" 40 years ago, today’s reform in China has entered the fast-flowing deep water area, and it is going to step into an "upgraded version" led by top-level design. The new policy signals released at the Boao Forum for Asia will surely attract the attention of the world.

　　Dai Xianglong, former governor of the People’s Bank of China, said at the sub-forum of "Asian Economic Forecast" of Boao Forum for Asia held on April 9th that the speed of economic growth in China is not as high as before, but the quality of growth is improving. After 40 years of reform and opening-up, along with GDP growth, environmental improvement, efficiency improvement, income increase and changes in the development stage, China won’t simply pursue speed in the future, but it doesn’t want speed, but it needs quality speed. "In the next 20 years, even by the middle of this century, Asia will still be the fastest growing region in the world, and the very important reason is the strong development of China. To achieve high-quality growth in China’s economy, it is necessary to carry out structural reforms on the supply side, vigorously cultivate new kinetic energy, and eliminate backward production capacity. " Dai Xianglong said.

　　"The open door of China will never be closed, it will only grow bigger and bigger."

　　"China will be more open and benefit the world to a greater extent."

　　Entering a new era, China has embarked on a new journey of further going to the world and developing a higher-level open economy. It is embracing the world with an unprecedented open attitude and bringing more confidence to the world. Boao Forum for Asia will convey China’s determination to deepen reform and open wider to the outside world and China’s voice to the world.
