in Xi'an, China - the starting
point of the ancient Silk Road - to participate in the 'Foreign
Media Journalists Visiting Xi'an 2019' themed interviews organized
by the Publicity Department of the CPC Xi'an Municipal

During the three-day trip, their footprints spread across many

companies, and cultural tourism organizations. They were also able
to get a grasp of the rapid development of science and technology,
as well as of Xi'an folk
customs.
At the BYD Xi'an New Energy Industrial Base, the journalists
visited the new energy vehicle production workshop. They enjoyed a
test ride in a Tang EV, the next-generation new energy vehicle from
BYD. "Almost all processes are automated and are highly
intelligent," said Amar Ankhbayar from the Montsame News
Agency.
While visiting the Xi'an Aiju
Grain and Oil Industrial Group, Suleimenov Ruslan from
Kazinform remarked excitedly, "China and Kazakhstan have become very important
partners. Aiju Grain and Oil is an
outstanding company that has come to our attention." At the
China-Europe Freight Train Operation Center at Xi'an Port, the
journalists learned about the shipping processes of the
China-Europe Chang'an freight train facility and details of
China-Europe imports and exports.
At Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum, journalists were
amazed by the spectacular Terracotta Army, and were fascinated by
the ingenious and delicate restoration and reproduction techniques
being applied to the Terracotta Army.
Amar Ankhbayar said, "This is my first visit to Xi'an and I have already developed a feel for
the long historical culture, the abundant scientific and
technological achievements, and the vitality and openness in this
modern city." The journalists from Japan said they hope to use these interviews
to demonstrate to their Japanese audiences the new development and
changes in Xi'an.
