Features: Zhao Qizheng's language possesses the quality of a neutron—unparalleled penetration; not through matter, but through the heart. — Liu Guoming, former President of the Second Research and Design Institute of China National Nuclear Corporation, nuclear engineering expert
The dialogues between the author and these renowned figures are not only rich and engaging but also full of wisdom. Like the previous volume, this sequel is a highly valuable reference book for professionals in domestic and international public relations. — Mao Jingquan, former Vice President of the China Public Relations Association and former Vice President of Shanghai Jiaotong University
Guesting on some of the most challenging television programs in Japan, the United States, Europe, and other countries, and facing tough, unyielding interviewers, Director Zhao Qizheng always emerges victorious and brings back countless topics and anecdotes that leave me, as a Chinese television host, in awe, admiration, and deep reflection. — Shen Junyi, CCTV program host
I am particularly grateful to Director Zhao for his professional and amicable attitude toward all media companies in China, and for his tireless efforts in introducing China's rich culture and traditions to the world. He has played a pivotal role in encouraging Chinese media to expand their international cooperation. — Richard D. Parsons, Chairman and CEO of Time Warner
Since Zhao Qizheng took over as Director of the State Council Information Office, the way official information is released has undergone significant changes. He not only doubled the number of press conferences but also urged Chinese officials to provide journalists with greater convenience and even adopted some Western practices, such as informal talks that are not for publication. — Asia Week
Mr. Zhao Qizheng's book Explaining China to the World showcases his warm, eloquent, and flexible diplomatic style. As China's "head of media," he demonstrated Beijing's policies in a flexible manner. When teaching Chinese language courses, I use this book as a textbook, not only helping students understand China but also analyzing its argumentative logic, rhetorical methods, and the selection of materials, so that they can learn how to articulate their political arguments and develop their critical opinions. — J?rk Beckermand, Chinese Language Teacher at the University of Applied Sciences Eichwald, Germany
This book is divided into seven parts based on Zhao Qizheng's external communication philosophy: "China's Stance, International Expression," "Choosing the Right Stories," "Telling the Stories Well," and more. It selects 60 speeches, interviews, and written works by Zhao Qizheng from various domestic and international activities.
