CRI听力:Audience Impressed by Chinese Premier's Davos Speech

"In his speech, the premier mentioned his visit to one local enterprise right after his arrival in Dalian, this kind of action gives entrepreneurs like me a huge boost of confidence."

"He gives a lot of evidence and fact that it is possible to have stable and sustainable growth. I really like when he ended his speech with the aspiration, the most important priority for all of us, which is the growth and well-being of human kind as a whole."

Reassurance, confidence and hope. These are the three words we hear most from hundreds of entrepreneurs who joined Chinese Premier Li Keqiang's keynote speech this morning at Dalian International Conference Hall.

Bangalore Gangaiah Srinivas, managing director of the Hong Kong-based telecommunication giant PCCW, believes two key messages in Premier Li's address will help define the future strategy of his company, which has a significant focus on China.

"One is of course about the face that there is very good stability in Chinese economy and definitely a bit of slowdown. Two (the second) is the fact that it is reaching out for global cooperation in manufacturing and definitely inviting more investment." 

Among all reform measures mentioned in Premier Li's speech, Yang Xiaozhong, Vice president of Beijing-based Trina Solar, lists the most beneficial measures for his company, the world's leading PV module supplier.

"When it comes to streamlining administration and power delegation, record filing has now replaced the complicated check and approval. This is really an importance message for the development of China's photovoltaic (PV) industry, since it saves a lot of time and increase efficiency when we seek for project approvals from the government." 

Meanwhile, mass entrepreneurship and innovation was also highlighted during Premier Li Keqiang's speech this morning.

As one of the key speakers during this year's Summer Davos, Professor Lin Boqiang from Xiamen University says the recipe for boosting innovation is sufficient funding from the government.

"What's important is that how to provide funding for people with ideas and who have actual capacity to carry out ideas. I think the funding is not sufficient for the drive as the new growth point. So, moving forward, how the government motivates the financial sector and other sectors to support those people will be the key issue."

Prior to the keynote speech, Premier Li Keqiang sat down with some three hundred global business leaders on Wednesday, sending clear signals that the Chinese economy is running within proper range.
