Xi Jinping signaled greater openness to foreign business during a meeting with
US executives accompanying Donald Trump in Beijing. Xi said American firms had
benefited from China’s reform and opening-up process and pledged that “China’s
door to the outside world will only open wider,” according to CCTV. Executives
shown attending included Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg and
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Xi’s remarks echoed Trump’s call for China to “open up”
and emphasized broader prospects for US companies in the Chinese market.
