[Wang Wentao meets with Tim Cook, executive chairman of Apple Inc.] On October 15, Minister of Commerce Wang Wentao met with Tim Cook, executive chairman of Apple Inc. The two sides exchanged views on Sino-US economic and trade relations, artificial intelligence development, Apple's business in China and other topics. Wang Wentao said that under the guidance of the consensus between the two heads of state to build a "constructive strategic and stable relationship between China and the United States based on respect, fairness, and reciprocity," China-US economic and trade consultations have achieved positive results. China advocates that the development of artificial intelligence is safe and controllable, universally beneficial, and governance cooperation. It is hoped that Apple will play a role as a communication bridge and contribute to the sustained, stable and positive development of Sino-US economic and trade relations. At present, China is unswervingly expanding high-level opening up to the outside world, continuing to optimize the business environment, expanding and upgrading the consumer market, and growing green supply chains, which will provide a broader space for multinational companies to invest in China and transform into smart, green, and innovative. It is hoped that Apple will continue to delve into the Chinese market and share the opportunities of Chinese-style modern development. Cook said that Apple is optimistic about China's development prospects, will further expand its business in China, and is willing to play an active role in promoting the stable and healthy development of U.S.-China economic and trade relations.
