Han Xingtong took a photo of the international forum of global trendsetters and academic policies of the "the Belt and Road", which opened on the 31st at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The forum brought together academics and politicians to discuss the relationship between the trendsetters and the "the Belt and Road", and provide advice and suggestions for the development of the "the Belt and Road". The forum was hosted by the Hong Kong Shantou Association, and invited experts and scholars from Hong Kong, mainland and overseas universities to give a keynote speech. The theme revolved around Chaoshan people and the construction of the "the Belt and Road", the construction of social and economic networks, the operation of international trade, and the economic and trade development of Hong Kong, Chaoshan and the "the Belt and Road". Huang Weilun, Deputy Secretary of the Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, attended the opening ceremony and delivered a speech. He said that more than 1.2 million people from Chaoshan, Hong Kong, had made outstanding achievements in many fields of commerce, trade and culture, built a solid foundation in countries along the "the Belt and Road", and became a civil envoy of the "the Belt and Road". In the future, the SAR government will work with overseas Chinese friends from all walks of life to create opportunities for the construction of the "the Belt and Road" and actively integrate into the overall national development situation. Zhang Guoyi, Deputy Director of the Publicity, Culture and Sports Department of the Hong Kong China Joint Office, said in his speech that Hong Kong has come back from the epidemic situation. As an important construction node of the "the Belt and Road" initiative, Hong Kong has played the role of super contact with the support of the state and played a unique role in investment and financing offshore RMB business, professional services, etc. It is meaningful for the forum to discuss the history and culture of Chaozhou people and their international influence in depth, and to offer advice and suggestions for promoting the development of the "the Belt and Road". It is believed that villagers, experts and scholars will further serve the needs of the country with their own strengths. Wang Xuezhu, Vice Mayor of Shantou Municipal Government, expressed the hope that the forum will promote new ideas through expert and scholar exchanges, stimulate the majority of trendsetters and merchants to leverage their global business network advantages, and actively participate in innovative exploration of new business models and formats.
