我和中国有着久远的渊源。30年前中国改革开放刚刚起步,我就自己组团来中国旅游,登上了向往已久的万里长城。那时候我在法国、英国、美国、日本及其他国家的事业发展得很成功,但对和法国文化历史同样灿烂的中国却知之甚少,所以想了解中国的愿望与日俱增。我也听说那时的中国社会环境还很封闭,老百姓生活艰苦,所以更想亲眼看看中国到底是什么样子。 I have a long history with China. Thirty years ago, when China’s reform and opening up was just beginning, I organized my own tour to China and boarded the long-awaited Great Wall. At that time, I had a very successful career in France, Britain, the United States, Japan and other countries. However, I did not know much about China, which is as brilliant as France’s cultural history. Therefore, I want to understand China’s growing aspirations. I also heard that at that time the social environment in China was still very closed and ordinary people were in a difficult life. Therefore, I also wanted to see with my own eyes what China is really like.
