Xi Courts US CEOs Amid CCP’s Economic Pains, Foreign Investors Flee

China’s socialist leader Xi Jinping is courting U. S. company leaders in China—Beijing’s latest effort to entice up international investors amid waning trust about the world’s second largest business.
Around 20 U.S. professionals and academics met with Xi in a meeting hall on Tiananmen Square’s northern border, and he urged businesses to keep investing in China while insisting that its economy is still in its prime.
Chairman of Brookfield Asset Management and Bloomberg Inc. Mark Carney, president of chips company Qualcomm Cristiano Amon, president of the private equity firm Blackstone Stephen Schwarzman, past assistant secretary of defense under the Clinton administration Graham Allison, and former head of the world’s largest delivery company FedEx Raj Subramaniam, among others.
