Chinese President Xi Jinping met with representatives of American companies on Wednesday, state media said, as the Chinese government seeks to attract foreign investment and reassure American companies in the face of an economic slowdown.
State broadcaster CCTV reported, “On the morning of March 27, President Xi Jinping met with representatives of the U.S. business community at the Great Hall of the People (in Beijing).''
“Before the talks began, Xi Jinping posed for a group photo with them,” the newspaper said.
State media did not reveal who attended the meeting, but said representatives from the academic community were also present.
The Wall Street Journal reported last week, citing people familiar with the matter, that talks were being prepared between Mr. Xi and the heads of U.S. business lobby groups.
