Synopsis "Beijing Express: How To Understand New China (in English)"
ABOUT THE BOOK 2017. The new President of France just took office. He knows his country needs radical reforms. The question is how to make his mark from the word go and how to make a clean break from his predecessors' policies. He has an idea: instead of going to Berlin on his first official foreign visit - as is customary - why not go to Beijing? What better example is there of a country where radical reforms have met with success? In order to get a better idea of how things are changing in China, he asks someone who lives and works there and has daily contact with Chinese people to come with him. During the flight from Paris to Beijing on the presidential jet, he and his traveling companion have a lively, quick-fire conversation about China. What comes to light is far from the preconceived ideas held in the West. We see the true nature of the new Chinese cultural revolution, backed by technology, service industries, and the thirst for consumer goods - an unexpected source of inspiration when it comes to reforming Western economies.
