China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) hosted an event on April 16 with the theme "China in the New Era: a Dynamic Tianjin Going Global". The event aims to promote Tianjin, one of the four municipalities directly under the central government of China, to the rest of the world. 

Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, and Li Hongzhong, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and secretary of the CPC Tianjin Municipal Committee, both spoke at the event.

Wang said that Tianjin was the pioneer of China's modern industrial development and has been thriving through reform and opening-up. As a crossroads of land and sea routes for the Belt and Road Initiative as well as a main node of the new Eurasia land bridge economic corridor, Tianjin is standing again at the forefront during a new round of reform and opening-up, Wang added.

Deputy Foreign Ministers Le Yucheng, Qin Gang and Zhang Hanhui, attended the event along with foreign diplomats, representatives of international organizations, business leaders, academics and members of the media.

Tianjin Mayor Zhang Guoqing offered an introduction of the city in the areas of modern transportation and logistics, business environment, industrial system, science and education, history and culture, and ecological construction. Zhang also said he welcomes the world to share the development opportunities that Tianjin offers.

Russian Ambassador to China Andrey Denisov, Singaporean Ambassador to China Stanley Loh Ka Leung, Angolan Ambassador to China Joao Salvador dos Santos Neto, South Korean Ambassador to China Jang Ha-sung, and German Ambassador to China Clemens von Goetze, introduced the exchange and cooperation projects between their respective countries and the city of Tianjin.
