Interview: China is building roads, not walls, in trade and innovation, says British business leader

Cooperation, innovation and shared business models will define the next phase of Britain-China economic relations, Stephen Perry said, reiterating that China's approach is based on building access and connections rather than closing markets.

LONDON, Dec. 30 (Xinhua) -- China's approach to globalization is about building networks and expanding access to markets rather than erecting barriers -- a method that is "more important in globalization than almost any other factor," Stephen Perry, president emeritus of Britain's 48 Group, told Xinhua in an interview.

Globalization is "a natural characteristic of the development of the economies of the world" rather than a deliberate political invention, Perry said, noting that many regions across Africa, Asia and South America were historically shaped by colonial transport systems designed to move resources from inland areas to ports, without fostering connections between countries.

In contrast, China has "helped all those three continents develop transportation systems that enabled them to do business with each other," Perry said.

At the outset of China's "going global" policy, Perry said, most of China's trade was concentrated in North America and Europe. This has changed, however, as China has expanded its trade with Asia, Africa and countries across the Global South.

Perry said the Belt and Road Initiative "immediately opened up a huge amount of trade between China and Europe," adding that China's rail and road corridors created trading routes that were previously considered impossible.

He described China as "the leader of globalization," noting that these routes are not limited to Chinese companies but accessible to the broader international community.

Perry said China does not seek expansion through military force, noting that the country "is not pointing missiles all over the world." Instead, it pursues a policy aimed at helping global development, "and with that process, China will grow as well."

On innovation, Perry said China will continue to innovate "in every area for the next 500 years," adding that China has restructured its education system to prepare for future technological needs, with a significant portion of China's university education shifting toward "new technology and the new era."

Disputes over electric vehicles and other advanced technologies could be eased through joint ventures and shared ownership between Chinese and European companies, Perry said.

European companies must rethink their business models, he added, warning that attempts to dominate markets in Asia or Africa would "lead to resistance."

He said the 48 Group is now focusing on technology, robotics and artificial intelligence, working to introduce new British companies to the Chinese market while encouraging Chinese companies to operate in Britain.

Perry said tariffs and trade barriers discourage long-term investment and disrupt supply chains, calling them "barriers to progress."

He added that younger generations are generally more interested in traveling, working and engaging globally rather than in "setting up barriers."

Cooperation, innovation and shared business models will define the next phase of Britain-China economic relations, Perry said, reiterating that China's approach is based on building access and connections rather than closing markets.

Interview: China-Europe rail routes promote development of Central Asia, says Kyrgyz expert

Traversing Central Asian countries, China-Europe freight rail service turns out to be a major project that brings both economic and infrastructural benefits to the region and, most importantly, contributes to improving the quality of life for the population, a Kyrgyz market expert has said.

BISHKEK, Dec. 18 (Xinhua) -- The China-Europe freight rail routes are emerging as an important driver of the development of Central Asian countries, a Kyrgyz market expert has said.

Traversing Central Asian countries, China-Europe freight rail service turns out to be a major project that brings both economic and infrastructural benefits to the region and, most importantly, contributes to improving the quality of life for the population, not least by creating new jobs, Sergei Ponomarev, president of the Association of Markets of Kyrgyzstan, said in a recent interview with Xinhua.

The train service transported 53 categories of goods, covering a vast array of more than 50,000 items, according to the 2nd China Railway Express Cooperation Forum, held in early November in Xi'an, the capital of northwest China's Shaanxi Province, under the theme "Connecting Asia and Europe for a Shared Future."

China-Europe freight trains are bringing an increasing number of branded products from various countries to the Chinese market, while also providing several landlocked countries in Eurasia with access to maritime routes.

Recalling the historical roots of regional connectivity, Ponomarev said that the ancient Silk Road was far more than a set of trade routes: its caravans shaped infrastructure and fostered cultural exchange. Goods such as Chinese silk reached Europe through routes that passed through what is now Kyrgyzstan.

Ponomarev described the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative as an effort to continue this historic role.

"Replicating this experience, the joint construction of the Belt and Road, is undoubtedly a megaproject," he said. "Kyrgyzstan was among the first to support it."

He emphasized that the international environment has made traditional logistics routes more complicated, increasing the value of new overland corridors. Modern rail routes linking China with Central Asia and onward to Europe now function as the new Silk Road, providing faster, more reliable, and more diversified pathways.

Kyrgyzstan will serve as an important link between one of the world's largest economies -- China -- and both Eastern and Western Europe, he said, adding that as these rail corridors expand, Central Asia is becoming a more convenient and strategic bridge in this process.

Kalispell, MT – July 16, 2025 – In a financial world where traditional investments struggle to outpace inflation and cryptocurrency markets remain complex and volatile, Evarix, headquartered at 1001 S Main Street, STE 500, Kalispell, MT 59901, emerges as a transformative force. Led by CEO John Anderson, this fast-growing global platform is revolutionizing wealth creation by combining cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) with a user-centric approach, delivering a consistent 3% daily return, effortless automation, and a transparent withdrawal system. With a presence in over 50 countries and a rapidly expanding community, Evarix is not just a trading platform — it’s a global movement empowering individuals to achieve financial freedom. Visit https://evarix.ai to join the future of finance.

The Evarix Vision: Democratizing Wealth Creation

The financial landscape is evolving rapidly. Traditional investments like savings accounts, bonds, and stocks often yield modest returns of 2–8% annually, barely keeping pace with inflation. Cryptocurrency, while promising exponential growth, is daunting due to its volatility and complexity. Evarix, registered in the United States (verifiable at https://biz.sosmt.gov/search/business by searching “Evarix”), was founded to bridge this gap, making crypto investing accessible, secure, and profitable for all.

Under CEO John Anderson’s leadership, Evarix is driven by a mission to democratize wealth creation. “Financial freedom should be within everyone’s reach, not just for crypto experts or Wall Street elites,” says Anderson. “Our AI-driven platform removes barriers, allowing anyone to grow their wealth effortlessly, whether they’re investing $100 or $100,000.”

Evarix achieves this through a proprietary AI trading engine that analyzes market trends, executes high-frequency trades, and optimizes returns in real-time. Users fund their portfolios on https://evarix.ai and the AI handles the complexity, delivering consistent results 24/7. With advanced algorithms and risk-mitigation strategies, Evarix ensures wealth-building is accessible to all, regardless of experience.

The Power of AI: Smarter, Safer, Stronger

Evarix’s platform is powered by a state-of-the-art AI trading engine designed to navigate cryptocurrency markets with precision. Unlike traditional platforms that rely on manual input or human judgment, Evarix’s AI processes vast amounts of market data, executing trades in milliseconds to capitalize on profitable opportunities.

The AI leverages machine learning, predictive analytics, and high-frequency trading strategies, continuously monitoring global exchanges for price movements, trading volumes, and market sentiment. By analyzing historical and real-time data, it anticipates market shifts and exploits micro-movements, arbitrage opportunities, and trends. This enables Evarix to deliver consistent returns while minimizing risk, even in volatile conditions.

“Our AI doesn’t just react—it anticipates,” says Dr. Sarah Lin, Chief Technology Officer at Evarix. “It adapts dynamically, balancing losses with gains to ensure sustainability for users and the platform.”

The AI executes thousands of trades daily across multiple markets, diversifying to mitigate fluctuations. Even in rare losing trades, the volume of successful transactions ensures stable profitability, enabling Evarix to deliver its promised 3% daily returns consistently.

Unmatched Returns: 3% Daily Growth, Compounded for Wealth Creation

Evarix’s value proposition is bold: a fixed 3% daily return on funds in user portfolios. This far surpasses traditional investments. For example, a $1,000 investment yields $30 daily, compounding to $1,030 after one day, $1,060.90 after two, and over $2,400 in a month. Over a year, reinvestment could turn $1,000 into tens of thousands—a growth rate unimaginable in conventional finance.

This model is powered by AI-driven strategies like high-frequency trading and arbitrage, capitalizing on small price movements for significant gains. Unlike speculative platforms, Evarix prioritizes sustainability, with algorithms maintaining healthy margins for users and the company.

“The reliability of our model sets us apart,” says Anderson. “Our AI’s high-volume trading ensures consistent returns with low risk.”

Users testify to the impact. “I started with $500 to test Evarix,” says Mark Henson, a 34-year-old Texas business owner. “Within weeks, my daily returns outpaced my savings account’s annual interest. Now, I’m reinvesting and watching my portfolio grow.”

Priya Sharma, a 28-year-old Indian software engineer, adds, “I was skeptical about crypto’s volatility, but Evarix’s AI makes it effortless. I see daily earnings without doing anything — it’s like a 24/7 financial advisor.”

Transparent Withdrawals: Flexibility and Control

Evarix prioritizes trust with a transparent withdrawal system. Users can request withdrawals from Saturday to Thursday, with funds released every Friday. This weekly cycle ensures predictability and liquidity.

Unlike platforms with lock-up periods or complex processes, Evarix offers full control. “Our withdrawal system is as simple as our trading,” says Anderson. “You earn daily and access funds weekly.”

“I plan withdrawals around my goals,” says Anthony Vega, a 42-year-old California real estate agent. “The weekly payouts give me freedom to reinvest or spend.”

Users can manage withdrawals at https://evarix.ai or contact admin@evarix.ai. Evarix’s US registration (verifiable at https://biz.sosmt.gov/search/business) reinforces its transparency and legitimacy.

The platform fosters a vibrant community of crypto enthusiasts and investors, offering educational content, market updates, and support forums.
