On March the 25th of 2015, Mr. Philippe Le Corre, visiting scholar of Center for U.S. and European Foreign Policy, at the Brookings Institution, U.S., visited the SIES and exchanged ideas and opinions with members of SIES on the theme of “”China’s Investment in Europe”. Mr. Corre told Chinese colleagues that many European leaders took many political considerations over Chinese investment in Europe, while common European citizens had negative impressions on it. He said that Chinese investors had to take serious considerations on such problems as taxation, employment, language, visa, culture, and integration, so they should take a balance between specialization and diversification. The participants of this meeting included: Dai Bingran, Xu Mingqi, Cao Ziheng, Ye Yuming, and Yang Haifeng.
