Li Qiang met with a group of top American business leaders in Beijing, including Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, and Tim Cook, during a major U.S.-China business and diplomatic gathering this week. The high-profile meeting took place alongside former U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit to China and focused on trade, artificial intelligence, technology cooperation, and economic relations between the two countries.
Chinese Premier Li Qiang emphasized the importance of cooperation and stable business ties between China and the United States. Executives from major American technology and finance companies attended the discussions, highlighting how important the Chinese market remains for Silicon Valley and global corporations.
The event quickly attracted global attention after videos and photos from the meeting spread online. Elon Musk became a major topic on social media after appearing with humorous facial expressions, relaxed body language, and casual “tourist-like” poses during official ceremonies and group photos. Meanwhile, Jensen Huang also gained attention for his enthusiastic presence in Beijing and his public appearances around the city.
Reports say the meetings included discussions about artificial intelligence, semiconductor technology, electric vehicles, trade relations, and future investments. China reportedly reassured American companies that it remains open to foreign business and technology partnerships despite growing global competition and political tensions.
