“It takes a lifetime to understand China. And I am on that journey，” he said， adding that he awaits future volumes of the book.
Jiang Jianguo， Minister of the State Council Information Office， said at the ceremony that he believes that through the book， international readers will better understand that the CPC is a party that seeks to improve the well-being of the Chinese people， to realize the rejuvenation of the nation and to promote common development for the whole world.
Jiang said that China will push for quality development， vigorous innovation， deeper reform and opening up in a bid to further share opportunities and benefits with the rest of the world.
Liu Xiaoming， China’s Ambassador to the UK， said that cultural exchanges between the two countries have made important contributions to the development of bilateral relations.
The premiere of the book is a major event for China-UK ties， and it is hoped that the two sides will take this opportunity to further strengthen cultural exchanges and mutual learning so as to build bilateral relations into a model of major-country relations featuring mutual respect， equality， mutual trust and win-win cooperation.
Martin Albrow， a renowned British sociologist， said the book is a reinforcement of the fi rst volume. “The new book is not only for Chinese readers， but for all those who care about the future of mankind，” he said.
Former Italian Prime Minister， Mario Monti， said the book showcases the Chinese leader’s global vision and his insights into the governance of China， which will prove inspiring for readers across the world. He also said that the book helps dispel some of the misunderstandings and prejudices about a rising China.
Felipe Gonzalez， former Spanish Prime Minister， said the book helps global readers understand China’s vital role in pushing for globalization and building a community with a shared future for mankind.
The book also offers a perspective on how to tackle relations among European nations， how to participate in and push forward globalization and how to build a cooperative relationship with China， Gonzalez added. On the same day that the multilingual versions of the second volume of Xi Jinping： The Governance of China were launched， a group of foreign guests， including state offi cials， representatives of non-governmental organizations， think tank members and journalists， was invited to China to visit Liangjiahe Village in Yanchuan County， northwest China’s Shaanxi Province， where President Xi lived and worked for seven years.
Madhav Kumar Nepal， former Nepalese Prime Minister， was a member of the foreign guests. After the tour， he told the People’s Daily that he believes China is playing an increasingly unique role in international and regional affairs， saying that as China and Nepal engage in more exchanges， it is imperative that all the people of Nepal get to know China better.
Nepal also said that the book Xi Jinping： The Governance of China is a crucial source for understanding China. “Xi’s book on governance， full of words of wisdom， enjoys popularity among the Nepalese people，” he said. “China’s development experiences in various fi elds can be a lesson for many countries around the world.”
According to CIPG data， the Simplified Chinese edition of the second volume of Xi Jinping： The Governance of China， which was published in November 2017， exceeded 10 million copies in global circulation in early January this year. The multilingual versions just published are expected to reach an even wider international audience.
