　　2022 is a special and important year.

This year, the Beijing Winter Olympics was successfully held, the National Two Sessions came as scheduled, and the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was successfully held...Every step we have taken in retrospect, there are overseas Chinese and Chinese behind us.

　　On the day of the beginning of spring, the ice and snow event unites overseas Chinese scattered all over the world.

The Overseas Chinese Ice and Snow Museum, donated by nearly 30,000 overseas Chinese, was completed on the eve of the opening of the Winter Olympics. More than 6,000 overseas Chinese donated collections in the museum tell the contribution of overseas Chinese and returned overseas Chinese to China's sports.

Le Taowen, chairman of the Huazhu Center in Salt Lake City, USA, mobilized and organized overseas Chinese in Utah to donate nearly 100 collections, and made a signature banner at the same time.

He recalled that more than 600 people participated in the signature event within 4 hours, deeply expressing the expectations and blessings of the local overseas Chinese for the Beijing Winter Olympics.

　　The Spring Awakening of Insects and the National Two Sessions have attracted the attention of overseas Chinese.

Members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference from the overseas Chinese community offered advice and suggestions.

Although overseas Chinese are thousands of miles apart, they focus on the two sessions online.

Wu Hao, president of the Russian Overseas Chinese Youth Federation, said: "I have participated in the Two Sessions as a non-voting overseas Chinese of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and I have experienced China's open and transparent democratic system. For me, the Two Sessions are close. Overseas Chinese’s expression warms the hearts of the people and inspires Chinese sons and daughters at home and abroad to move forward hand in hand.”

　　From late summer to autumn, the 2022 Global Overseas Chinese Conference on Promoting the Peaceful Reunification of China will be held. More than 3,000 compatriots at home and abroad will participate in the conference online and offline.

By publishing the "Chengdu Declaration", they sent out a strong voice against "independence" and promoting reunification to the world: as long as the sons and daughters of China at home and abroad join hands and work together, the complete reunification of China and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will surely be realized as soon as possible.

　　In the golden autumn of October, the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was successfully held. In the report of the 20th National Congress, the overseas Chinese expressed "strengthening and improving overseas Chinese affairs and forming a powerful force for national rejuvenation", which warmed the hearts of overseas Chinese at home and abroad.

At the same time, “new vocabulary” such as Chinese-style modernization has attracted the attention of overseas Chinese, “Chinese-style modernization will inject new momentum into the world’s development. Confidence in wisdom and strength," Le Taowen said.

　　In the early winter, the enthusiasm of overseas Chinese businessmen to participate in the Chinese market bloomed at the CIIE.

They either seized opportunities, actively participated in the exhibition, or made connections and promoted the CIIE, conveying to the world China's determination and confidence in expanding its opening up.

Wang Yunru, executive vice president of the France-China Association for the Promotion of Relations, is an "old friend" of the CIIE. He said: "Looking back, I have gained a lot. I have witnessed the development of the CIIE and enjoyed the benefits of the CIIE." Bonus. In the new year, the Chinese economy will usher in better development, and overseas Chinese businessmen will reap more surprises from the Chinese market.” (End)
