尊敬的各位来宾、各位朋友,
女士们,先生们,
欢迎大家出席庆祝中华人民共和国成立70周年主题国际巡展开幕式!
70年前中华人民共和国的成立,是中华民族5000年发展史上开天辟地的一件大事,深刻改变了中国人民的前途命运。70年来,在中国共产党的领导下,中华民族迎来了从站起来、富起来到强起来的伟大飞跃,开辟了中国特色社会主义道路,确立了中国特色社会主义制度,创造了世所罕见的经济快速发展奇迹和社会长期稳定奇迹。
Dear guests and friends,
Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to the opening ceremony of the International Photo Exhibition Celebrating the 70th Founding Anniversary of the People's Republic of China.
The founding of the People's Republic of China 70 years ago was of immense significance in the 5000 years of history of the Chinese nation, which profoundly altered the destiny of the Chinese people. Over the past 70 years, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese nation has achieved a great transformation, from standing up to becoming rich and growing strong, trailblazing a path of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and creating a miracle of rapid economic growth and long-lasting social stability.
中国取得的伟大成就,离不开与包括瑞典在内的世界各国和人民的交流合作。作为当今世界第二大经济体、第一大贸易国、全球最大的发展中国家,中国的发展离不开世界,世界的发展也离不开中国。中国将继续扩大开放,开放的大门只会越开越大,并且与世界各国持续不断分享自身进一步发展的红利。
The extraordinary achievements of China owe a lot to exchanges and cooperation with countries including Sweden and people around the world. China is the second largest economy, the biggest trading nation and the largest developing country in the world. China cannot grow without the world, and the world cannot develop without China. China's door will only open up wider to the world, and will continue to share the dividends of its development with countries around the world.
为了帮助世界各国更加客观全面准确认识中国,更好地抓住中国机遇,我们专门主办了此次国际巡展。本次图片展包括“中国人民站起来”、“改革开放春风里”、“砥砺奋进新时代”三个部分,通过160多幅珍贵而鲜活的图片,展示了新中国70年一路走来点点滴滴的细微变化和巨大成就,完整再现了中国人的生活记忆,串联出整个时代发展变迁的脉络历程。相信图片展会让大家更好地了解中国的昨天、今天和明天,切实感受中国人民愿与世界人民携手,推动构建实现人类命运共同体、创建美好未来的共同愿景。
预祝庆祝中华人民共和国成立70周年国际巡展取得圆满成功!
To help other countries get a more objective, comprehensive and accurate understanding of China and better grasp the opportunities presented by China, we specially host this international exhibition of pictures. It has three sections: "Standing-up of the Chinese People", "Spring Breeze of Reform and Opening up" and "Forging Ahead in a New Era". The more than 160 precious and vivid pictures speak of every small step of the journey of the seven decades traversed by the new China, bringing to life the memories shared by the Chinese people and displaying the chronicle of the transformation of the country. I believe this exhibition will give you a better understanding of the past, present and future of China, and an idea of how Chinese people hope to join hands with people around the world for a community with a shared future for mankind and building a brighter future.
I wish the exhibition a full success!
