2024-06-25
The 15th Annual Meeting of the New Leaders of the World Economic Forum (also known as the Summer Davos Forum) will open in Dalian, Liaoning on the 25th. Approximately 1600 guests from nearly 80 countries and regions, both domestic and foreign, will gather in Dalian to discuss "new frontiers of future growth" and explore new driving forces and paths for global economic growth. Five years later, the world's attention has once again focused on Dalian. On the 24th, the reporter conducted an interview on the widely discussed topics that the attending guests focused on, the differences between this forum and previous ones, and the preparation of the forum. China's development prospects are highly anticipated. Early on the 24th, the registration office of the 15th Summer Davos Forum was bustling with activity. Nigerian guest Mariam Uwais, who has just completed on-site registration, said, "This is my first time attending the Summer Davos Forum in China, and I am looking forward to this forum." She said that in recent years, China's rapid technological development has attracted worldwide attention, and she has a good view of the prospects of China's economic development. Across from the forum registration office, the Dalian International Conference Center, which looks like a diamond, is the main venue for this summer's Davos Forum. In the lobby of the first floor, there is an AI drawing screen displayed, where guests can pick up a "paintbrush" to outline dreamy anime style landscape paintings on the screen and write messages for China's development. Not far from the Dalian International Convention Center, the Dalian Trading Plaza, invested and developed by Japan's Eurex Group, opened in March this year. Liu Guoping, the Chairman of the Greater China region of the group, stated that Oulishi values the growth potential and opportunities brought by the Chinese government's increasing emphasis on digital transformation and sustainable development. "We have closely cooperated with multiple companies in Beijing, Shenzhen, and other places in product research and development to explore new drivers of global economic growth." Husham Hamo, CEO of a technology company in Jordan, said he looks forward to discovering more development opportunities in new technological fields by attending this forum. The Davos Forum is known as the "barometer of the world economy". Against the backdrop of weak global economic recovery and insufficient growth momentum, this summer's Davos Forum will organize over a hundred activities around artificial intelligence, biotechnology, quantum computing, energy transformation, and other directions, paying more attention to the new space and opportunities brought by new technologies and concepts in the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation. Chen Liming, President of the Greater China Region of the World Economic Forum, stated that hosting the conference is a good opportunity to jointly stimulate innovation potential and inject momentum into sustainable economic development in Asia and even the world. "China's successful experience in developing new quality productive forces in the field of green energy, expanding new space for the development of traditional industries, and giving rise to emerging industries with strong correlation and broad prospects, has a positive promoting effect on the global energy structure transformation." Gao Haichun, Chairman of Tianhe Fujia Energy Co., Ltd., stated that he will focus on the development opportunities of new energy under technological and model innovation during the forum. Dalian has officially entered "Summer Davos Time" and walked out of Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport. The terminal is surrounded by flowers and green plants, and there are many themed landscapes with Chinese characteristics, allowing guests from home and abroad to encounter beauty at first glance in Dalian. Jennifer Merio, a graphic designer from Davos Forum in France, was pleasantly surprised to find that she can now make payments through WeChat. Under the guidance of the Dalian Branch of the People's Bank of China, WeChat Pay provides a more convenient and smooth payment experience for attendees and tourists visiting China in terms of product experience, guidance upgrade, and service guarantee. Through "verification free small payment", overseas guests only need to submit the card number, validity period, and security code of their bank card, and can bind the six major international card organizations' bank cards such as Visa on WeChat. The Dalian Youth League Municipal Committee has recruited 680 young volunteers, who are known as "little starfish". 24-year-old volunteer Yin Yi introduced that in the past 100 days, they have received training in various aspects such as foreign affairs etiquette, applied English, and Dalian's history and culture. Dalian Mayor Chen Shaowang said, "Dalian will enhance the influence of the forum through openness and inclusiveness, amplify spillover effects through economic and trade interaction, showcase the characteristics of the times through technology empowerment, promote green transformation through energy conservation and carbon reduction, deepen cultural exchanges through culture, and reflect urban quality through meticulous services."
