A series of China Europe freight trains departed from Xi'an Port to Europe, and mushroom and grass technology was used to improve saline alkali land in Fiji. Overseas campuses and medical centers were gradually established. For more than a decade, the joint construction of the the Belt and Road has been refined from a grand blueprint to a solid project. With the five links as the starting point, we have built a global cooperation network to inject continuous momentum into the development of countries.

China Unicom builds a development belt

The joint construction of the the Belt and Road takes connectivity as the main line, the six corridors and six roads multi country and multi port architecture has basically taken shape, and landmark projects such as the China Laos Railway Ya'an Wanzhou High speed Railway have been launched. The number of China Europe freight trains has exceeded 130000, reaching 237 cities in 26 European countries. In the past five years, China's trade in goods with co built countries has increased from 2.7 trillion US dollars to 3.3 trillion US dollars, with an average annual growth rate of 5.1%. China has signed cooperation agreements with over 150 countries and more than 30 international organizations. The three International Cooperation Summit forums have continued to consolidate consensus, and infrastructure hard connectivity, rules, standards, and soft connectivity are being promoted simultaneously.

Livelihoods pave the way to happiness

The project construction not only focuses on large-scale infrastructure, but also numerous small and beautiful projects rooted at the grassroots level to improve people's lives. Fiji uses mushroom grass technology to transform barren beaches and increase land output, while Iraq has built thousands of demonstration schools benefiting over 500000 students. The livelihood projects such as Luban Workshop Guangming Xing continue to be implemented, and the China Kazakhstan Traditional Medicine Center receives tens of thousands of people. Various cultural exchange activities are constantly carried out to narrow the distance between different civilizations. Key words: the Belt and Road, connectivity, people's livelihood cooperation
