This is a journey of inheritance, but also a journey of creation. The purpose is to carry forward the traditional friendship between China and Arab countries, China and Saudi Arabia, and usher in a new era of relations between China and the Arab world, the Gulf Arab countries, and Saudi Arabia. 1、 The millennium friendship has a long history. The exchanges between China and Arab countries can be traced back to more than 2000 years ago. Since then, the overland Silk Road has witnessed a steady stream of business and travel, and the maritime spice road has been full of sails. The Chinese and Arab civilizations have flourished on both sides of the Asian continent. China's porcelain, paper making and printing all the way to the west, and Arab astronomy, calendar and medicine all the way to the east. We exchange what we need, inspire innovation, collide with ideas, spread the achievements of cultural exchanges around the world, and write a historical story about the integration of East and West, and mutual learning. The exchanges between China and the Arab countries in the Gulf have been handed down through historical records. During the Eastern Han Dynasty of China, Gan Ying was ordered to go on an envoy mission, "looking at the Qin Dynasty from the West Sea", leaving the earliest official record of Chinese envoys arriving in the Arab countries in the Gulf. More than 1200 years ago, Arab navigator Obeid set out from Suhar Port and arrived in Guangzhou, China. This legendary experience was translated into a wonderful Sinbad adventure story, which is very popular. In the 1980s, the "Suhar" made in imitation of ancient times resumed the route opened by ancient Arab navigators, connecting the history and reality of friendly exchanges between the two sides. Since ancient times, China and Saudi Arabia have enjoyed mutual appreciation and friendly exchanges. The Prophet Muhammad once said, "Although knowledge is far away from China, it should also be sought". 700 years ago, Wang Dayuan of the Yuan Dynasty of China arrived in Mecca and described Mecca as "a place where landscape is integrated, four seasons of spring are coming, fields are fertile and paddy fields are fertile, and residents are happy in their work". His "A Brief History of the Island People" has become an important document for China to understand ancient Saudi Arabia. Six hundred years ago, Zheng He, a Chinese navigator of the Ming Dynasty, made many long voyages to Jeddah, Medina and other places to spread friendship and enhance exchanges. He has been a great talker to people today. In the past few years, China and Saudi Arabia have jointly carried out archaeological work on the ruins of the Port of Salin, and a large number of Chinese porcelains of the Song and Yuan dynasties unearthed tell of the past of friendship between the two countries. 2、 The Arab world is an important member of developing countries and an important force to safeguard international fairness and justice. The Arab people advocate independence, oppose external interference, and are not afraid of hegemony. They are people pursuing progress. The Arab countries have diversified resource endowments, distinctive industrial characteristics, and remarkable construction achievements. They are countries with great potential. The Arab civilization advocates peace in the middle, encourages tolerance and mutual learning, and opposes civilization conflicts. It is a profound civilization.
