在联合技术公司,我们每年向中国出售的产品和提供的服务达10亿美元,其中2亿美元是美国的出口,主要是航空产品。这些出口,为美国提供了一些最好的就业机会。我们还拥有近1万名中国员工,而他们正是使这个非常重要的国家及其经济发生变化的有效力量。我认为,我个人对中国是了解的。我第一次到中国是1985年,此后每年都去中国,有时不止一次。我结识了很多中国领导人,同中国同行进行商务合同谈判,会见了我们在华合资企业的无数 At UTC, the products and services we sell to China every year reach 1 billion U.S. dollars, of which 200 million U.S. dollars are U.S. exports, mainly aeronautical products. These exports provide the United States with some of the best employment opportunities. We also have nearly 10,000 Chinese employees, and they are precisely the forces that make this very important country and its economy changing. I think I personally understand China. My first visit to China was in 1985, and then to China every year since, sometimes more than once. I met many Chinese leaders, negotiated business contracts with their Chinese counterparts, met with countless Chinese joint ventures in China
