In the context of the new era, China, with its unique charm and vigorous development momentum, is attracting more and more international friends to explore China's story and look for opportunities therein. By understanding the daily life of three foreign friends in China and their interpretation of China-EU cooperation, we can gain a deeper understanding of China's role and influence on the global stage.

First, Faris Rebronja, an international trade manager from Serbia, built a communication bridge between Serbian merchants and Chinese factories in Pingyao, Shanxi. He not only has a deep understanding of the essence of Shanxi merchant culture, but also supports the Belt and Road Initiative with practical actions, and looks forward to a closer partnership between China and Serbia. Mr. Leboya’s work not only promoted trade between China and Serbia, but also deepened the friendship and understanding between the two peoples.

Secondly, as the general manager of the Qingdao German Enterprise Center, Kerstin Kaehler plays a key role in the Sino-German Ecological Park. In more than 20 years in China, Ms. Ke Xueting has not only witnessed the business opportunities brought by the location and policy advantages of Shandong and even China, but also actively cooperated with many domestic and foreign entrepreneurs to jointly seize the opportunities of the gold mining wave. Her work provides strong support for the development of German companies in China and provides valuable experience for Chinese companies to enter the international market.

Finally, Rafael Dezcallar, the former Spanish Ambassador to China, spoke highly of China’s remarkable progress in global climate governance and sustainable development. He appreciated China's development potential and transformative achievements, and warmly welcomed Chinese tourists to Spain. Ambassador Descaglia revealed that the Spanish tourism industry is actively preparing to welcome the arrival of Chinese tourists with better services. This kind of cooperation will not only promote tourism exchanges between China and Spain, but also further deepen the understanding and friendship between the two peoples.

Through the stories of these three foreign friends, we can see that China is playing an increasingly important role on the global stage. Their daily life in China and their interpretation of China-EU cooperation not only demonstrate China's openness and tolerance, but also convey China's positive contributions to global governance and sustainable development. At the same time, these stories also remind that in the context of the new era, China will continue to work with other countries in the world to build a community with a shared future for mankind in an open, cooperative, and win-win manner.Editor/Cheng Liting
