Your Excellencies, /distinguished guests,/ my lords,/ ladies and gentlemen,/ it is with great pleasure that I welcome you tonight to this magnificent castle. /We warmly welcome you and your distinguished delegation to Wales. /Wales is a small country compared with China. /However, the Welsh people have made a significant congtribution to the development of the United Kingdom /and to the part the UK has played throughout the world.

诸位阁下，/贵宾们，/勋爵们/，女士们，先生们，/我非常高兴在这里欢迎各位今晚到这座雄伟的城堡来。/我们热烈欢迎你们和你们尊贵的代表团来访威尔士。/威尔士与中国相比是个小地方。/但是，威尔士人民对英国的发展作出了重要贡献，/在英国的国际角色中也作出了重要的贡献。

Welsh companies make an important contribution to the United Kingdom economy. /Some are represented here this evening. /Many already trade with China. /Many more would like to do so. /This is one aspect of the growing relationship between our two countries. /China is a focal point for trade and investment from Wales. /Wales’s exports to China are valued at over ￡250 million. /It’s good, /but not good enough./ I would encourage Welsh companies to do better.

威尔士的公司为英国经济作出了重要贡献。/有些公司的代表今晚就在场。/许多威尔士的公司已经和中国有贸易关系。/希望与中国交易的公司远不止这些。/这是我们双方关系发展的一个方面。/中国是威尔士贸易和投资的一个焦点。/威尔士对华出口价值2.5亿多英镑。/局面很好，/但还不够。/我希望威尔士的公司更上一层楼。

I would also thank you, Mr Chairman,/ to help increase the awareness of Wales among Chinese companies, /particularly among Chinese companies that are considering their first move into Europe. /For many years,/Wales has been one of the most popular destinations for foreign investment in Europe./ Investors in Wales have brought over ￡12 billion into the country /and continue to reinvest once established.

感谢你主席先生，/我想请你为在中国公司中提高对威尔士的认识助一臂之力，/尤其是那些正在考虑打入欧洲的中国公司。/多年来，威尔士一直是外国在欧洲投资最受欢迎的地方之一。/投资者给威尔士带来了120亿英镑，/而且投资者们一旦立足，就继续追加投资。

Investors are not limited to US and Europe. /Many companies from the Far East have chosen to establish their European operations here./ Our Welsh Development Agency has set up an office in China. /It demonstrates our commitment to your country./ Meanwhile, Welsh companies are increasingly focused on outward investment /and establishing joint ventures with partners in China. /China’s accession to the World Trade Organization/ will present new opportunities for both our economies.

投资者不限于美国和欧洲。/许多远东的公司也已选择威尔士作为它们在欧洲开展业务的地点。/我们的威尔士工商发展局已经在中国设立了办公室。/这表明了我们对中国的决心。/同时，威尔士公司越来越注重对外投资，/与中国伙伴建立合资企业。中国加入世界贸易组织后，/将给双方经济带来新的机遇。
