The delegation of American business leaders and CEOs attending the China Development Forum in Beijing on March 27 was received by the Chinese leader Xi Jinping, who emphasized his optimism about the Chinese economy and encouraged American companies to invest in China. However, in the aftermath, some attendees now believe more strongly that the Chinese economy will continue to decline, with political risks increasing in the future.

U.S.-based independent Chinese commentator Cai Shengkun stated on NTD’s Chinese-language program “Pinnacle View” that usually, information from such closed-door meetings is heavily restricted for foreign participants, especially concerning private discussions between these business leaders and Chinese officials or any requests made or agreed upon by the Chinese side.
