Last week, China’s Xinhua news agency looked http://english.people.com.cn/200604/14/eng20060414_258282.html at the relationship between Boeing and China from the western side of the Pacific Ocean.
Key Quote, from Boeing VP of China sales Robert Laird: “The Boeing executive stressed that his company saw China as a very strong and growing market, and the company was not doing things in China for net sales, but for the long term. ‘The Chinese have a very long term perspective of life, of business, and Boeing is trying to have the same perspective of our business relationship in China,’ he said.”
Hu arrives in Everett (not Seattle) Tuesday for the start of a two-day visit to Puget Sound that includes visits to Microsoft’s campus in Redmond and Boeing’s factory here. He’ll give a speech Wednesday at the Future of Flight museum in Mukilteo.
