Editor's note:

  85 years ago, the American journalist and author Edgar Snow wrote a book Red Star Over China after observing the arduous struggle of the Chinese Communists, which caused a sensation among Western readers.

In the vicissitudes of life in 1985, the red star in Snow's writings not only illuminated China, but also impressed the world with the shining light of the East.

On the occasion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in order to let history illuminate the future and let the world understand China better, China News Network launched a series of reports on "Why Red Stars Shine in China", inviting celebrities, expert think tanks and overseas Chinese to discuss China Ten Years of great changes, looking forward to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the future development of China.

  Cheng Suke is the first executive vice president of the China General Chamber of Commerce in Italy. In 2000, he went to Italy to engage in business work.

Over the past 20 years, China-Italy bilateral relations have continued to deepen and develop. Cheng Suke expects that the two countries can continue to move forward hand in hand in the future, jointly promote mutual learning between Eastern and Western civilizations, maintain the stable development of the world economy, and achieve a higher level of mutual benefit and win-win results in the post-epidemic era.

He said that the overseas Chinese in Italy will continue to be a bridge between China and Italy, promote bilateral economic and trade development, and contribute to the realization of the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
