遇见多彩中国之美 搭建民心相通之桥——谢锋大使在第23届华盛顿中国文化节开幕式上的致辞

Distinguished guests,

Dear friends,

各位来宾、各位朋友：

It is my great delight to join you at the 23rd Washington Chinese Cultural Festival, an annual feast of culture in D.C. On behalf of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, I would like to extend my warm congratulations on the opening of the festival and heartfelt thanks to the Government of the District of Columbia for its support and participation. Let me also extend a warm welcome to delegations from Beijing and Shenzhen, and pay tribute to the Chinese communities, associations, and friends from various sectors, who have worked hard to make this event possible!

很高兴出席第23届华盛顿中国文化节，同大家一起庆祝首都地区一年一度的文化盛会。我谨代表中国驻美使馆对文化节的举办表示热烈祝贺，对哥伦比亚特区政府的支持和参与表示衷心感谢，对来自北京、深圳等地的代表团致以诚挚欢迎，对辛勤筹备文化节的各华侨华人社团、各位侨胞、各界朋友们表示崇高敬意！

After two decades, the Washington Chinese Cultural Festival has become a shining symbol of Chinese culture, and built a unique and important bridge for the American people to understand China and its civilization. The theme of the festival this year is “Meet China”. Let’s jointly decode Chinese culture in this joyous atmosphere, and experience a real, dynamic and panoramic China.

历经二十余载春秋，华盛顿中国文化节已成为一张闪亮的文化名片，为美国民众了解中国和中华文化搭建了一座独特而重要的桥梁。今年的主题是“遇见中国”，期待和大家一起在节日的欢乐氛围中解锁中华文化的密码，感知一个真实、立体、全面的中国。

Let’s together meet an ancient and beautiful China. A history spanning over 5,000 years has nurtured a treasure trove of traditional Chinese culture, which has endowed us with not only abundant cultural heritages, but also a rich spiritual world. From “the four arts” to porcelain, Peking Opera and diverse cuisines, China’s cultural icons abound, and have fascinated many American friends.

让我们遇见传统而美丽的中国。中华文明上下五千年，培育和发展了博大精深的优秀传统文化，不仅赋予了中国厚重深邃的历史底蕴，也滋养了中华民族丰富的精神世界。琴棋书画、瓷器文物、京剧美食，都是中华文化的优秀符号，让许多美国朋友对中国心向往之。

The festival this year brings together an exciting mix of cultural experiences. Today, you can learn Tai Chi, try your hand at traditional calligraphy and play the game of Go, which will offer a glimpse into the Chinese perspective on the universe and life, featuring unity between man and nature. You can also have a taste of China, and feel the beauty of harmony in Chinese cuisine. The cultures of China and the U.S. share a lot in common. I hope when exploring the unique charm of Chinese civilization, you will also find more resonance between our two cultures.

今年的文化节展位丰富。大家可以学习打太极、写书法、下围棋，了解其中蕴含的文化内涵，一探中国人天人合一、和谐共生的宇宙观人生观。大家也可以品尝美食，感受“舌尖上的中国”，在饮食文化中体悟中和为美的人生意义。中美两国文化有许多相通之处。希望大家在体验中华文化独特魅力的同时，产生更多中美文化交融的情感共鸣。

Let’s together meet a modern and innovative China. A robust economy, booming high-tech industries, smart infrastructure and the bustling city life have all injected modern vitality into the ancient nation. Innovation is at the heart of China today. Powered by science and technology, cultural innovation has preserved the tradition, and at the same time enriched it with more fresh, vibrant elements. From the triple-A game Black Myth: Wukong which has over 3 million players globally, to “Ne Zha 2”, the first animated movie that has exceeded $2.2 billion at the global box office, and to Black Myth: Zhong Kui announced earlier this month, the chemistry between Chinese culture and technology is captivating hearts around the world.  

让我们遇见现代而创新的中国。充满活力的经济，蓬勃发展的高科技产业，智能化的基础设施，丰富多彩的都市生活，为古老中国注入了现代化生机。创新是当代中国的脉搏，科技加持下的文化创新，不仅保留了中华文化的传统内核，更打造了全新的审美范式，提供了更加丰富的文化元素。从全球玩家超300万的3A游戏《黑神话：悟空》，到首部全球票房超过22亿美元的动画电影《哪吒2》，再到本月已经官宣的《黑神话：钟馗》，充满科技感的中华文化更加具象化，更加深入人心。

At the First World Humanoid Robot Games held in Beijing recently, teams from 16 countries, including China and the U.S., competed alongside each other, and the human-machine dance "Spirit of the Terracotta Warriors”won the gold medal in the group dance event, showcasing the infinite possibilities when technology meets culture. As a Chinese proverb goes, “A single flower does not make spring; a hundred flowers in full blossom bring spring to a garden.” I encourage you to interact with and learn from each other today, and contribute wisdom to how the cultures of China and the U.S. can draw on one another and flourish side by side.

不久前在北京举办的首届世界人形机器人运动会上，中美等16个国家的队伍同台竞技，一曲人机共舞《秦俑魂》斩获群体舞蹈项目冠军，展现了科技与文化结合的无限可能。一枝花开不是春，百花齐放春满园。期待大家在文化体验中加强互动，相互借鉴启发，为中美文化互促共进贡献智慧和力量。

Let’s together meet an open and inclusive China. China’s doors are wide open to friends from around the world. We now offer unilateral and mutual visa exemptions to 75 countries, and have expanded the 240-hour visa-free transit policy to 55 nations including the U.S. In the first half of this year, foreign nationals made over 38 million trips to and from China, up by 30.8% year over year. Among them, 13.64 million visited China visa-free, accounting for 71.2% of the total entries, up by 53.9% from the same period last year.

让我们遇见开放而包容的中国。中国的大门始终向世界各地朋友打开，已对75个国家实行单方面免签或全面互免签证，240小时过境免签“朋友圈”已拓展至包括美国在内的55个国家。今年上半年，外国人出入境达3805万人次，同比上升30.8%，其中免签入境外国人1364万人次，占入境外国人的71.2%，同比上升53.9%。

Earlier this year, American streamer IShowSpeed live-streamed his trip in China, showing the American people a safe, friendly and stunning country. The “China Consular Affairs” app will soon offer visa services in the U.S., so the American people can apply for a Chinese visa in just one click and embark on a trip to China whenever you like. We welcome more American friends to visit China, see it with your own eyes, become ambassadors of people-to-people exchanges, and help foster closer ties between our people.  

美国博主“甲亢哥”今年初在华直播，展现给美国民众一个安全、友好、美丽的中国。“中国领事”APP签证功能即将在美上线，未来美国民众动动手指就可以申请赴华签证，筹备一场说走就走的“中国行”。我们欢迎更多美国朋友到中国走走看看，增强对中国的直观感受，做中美人文交流的“民间大使”，为中美人民相知相近发声出力。

Distinguished guests,

Dear friends,

各位来宾、各位朋友，

This year marks the 80th Anniversary of the Victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Eighty years ago, China and the U.S. fought against fascist aggression and defended peace shoulder to shoulder. Eighty years later, as the world’s two largest economies and permanent members of the UN Security Council, our two countries should all the more bear in mind the common wellbeing of humanity, and join hands with other countries to safeguard world peace, stability and development. Conflict and confrontation produce no winner; dialogue and cooperation are what people truly want. As long as China and the U.S. uphold mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation, we will surely find a right way to get along with each other, and advance the steady, sound and sustainable development of China-U.S. relations, to the benefit of both our two countries and the entire world.  

今年是中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年。80年前，中美共处同一战壕，抵御侵略、守护和平；80年后，中美作为世界前两大经济体和联合国安理会常任理事国，更应该胸怀人类共同福祉，携手各国共同维护世界的和平、稳定和发展。冲突对抗只会损人害己，对话合作方是民心所向。只要中美两国坚持相互尊重、和平共处、合作共赢，就能走出一条大国正确相处之道，推动中美关系稳定、健康、可持续发展，既造福两国又惠及世界！

In closing, I wish the 23rd Washington Chinese Cultural Festival a great success! Let today’s festival be just your first step toward discovering China, and come to our country and explore it for yourself one day. Believe me, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime trip beyond your imagination!

最后，预祝第23届华盛顿中国文化节圆满成功！也欢迎越来越多的美国朋友从这里出发，到中国去，游在中国、吃在中国、乐在中国！

Thank you very much.

谢谢大家！
