[National Development and Reform Commission: Never Required Chinese Tech Companies to Reject Foreign Investment] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on May 22, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) held a press conference. At the event, Li Chao, Deputy Director of the Policy Research Office of the NDRC, stated that opening up to the outside world is a fundamental national policy of China. We support Chinese enterprises in integrating into the global innovation network and engaging in mutually beneficial international exchanges and cooperation. We have never required Chinese tech companies to reject foreign investment. At the same time, foreign investment must comply with Chinese laws and regulations and must not harm China's national security and interests. China's door to openness will only open wider. We will continue to thoroughly implement the Foreign Investment Law and its implementation regulations, consistently foster a market-oriented, law-based, and internationalized business environment, and strengthen risk prevention and control.
