Four decades after China’s reform and opening-up, globalization is now facing a structural adjustment. International finance, trade, and business are all entering a new stage of development. China is now facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges. It is important in this new era to reconstruct the international trading system, reform the international financial system, and improve global governance mechanisms, and there is much progress to be made.
