BRUSSELS, July 6 (Xinhua) — Europe should focus on attracting Chinese investments in the area of information and communication technology (ICT), said Luigi Gambardella, president of ChinaEU, a business-led association aimed at intensifying business cooperation and investment in the telecom and hi-tech spheres.
新华社布鲁塞尔7月6日电–欧洲应该把重点放在吸引中国对信息通信技术领域的投资上，中欧数字协会主席鲁乙己如是说。中欧数字协会是一家具有商业导向的、旨在加强中欧在电信和高科技领域商业合作及投资的组织。
“Europe should fully understand the potential of China, especially in sectors such as the ICT,” Gambardella told Xinhua in a recent interview.
“欧洲应该充分认识到中国巨大的发展潜力，尤其是在一些特定领域，例如信息通信技术领域”，鲁乙己在近期接受新华社专访时说道。
“I hope Europe will be able to grasp this opportunity because China will become the most important player in the world regarding these highly value-added sectors,” he said.
他说：“我希望欧洲可以把握住这次机会，因为在这些附加值极高的领域里，中国即将成为全球最重要的玩家。”
Europe should be more active in consolidating its partnership with China, he said. “We should work together with China attracting investments to create new jobs.”
欧洲需要更加积极主动地巩固其与中国的伙伴关系，鲁乙己补充道，“我们应该和中国合作，通过吸引投资来促进就业。”
Chinese participation in the Juncker investment plan is a “generous act,” and it is also a proof that Europe and its citizens can receive tangible benefits from China, Gambardella said.
中国参与容克投资计划是一个“慷慨大度的举动”，同时也证明了欧洲和欧洲公民能够从中国获得实实在在的好处，鲁乙己强调。
Gambardella underlined the need to concentrate on the digital sector, where many small and medium enterprises are developing interesting technologies but at the same time face limited financial resources.
他继而强调了投资应重点关注数字领域的必要性，因为在该领域有无数的中小企业正在研究非常有意思的高科技产品，但在他们努力创造价值的同时，却面临着因为资金紧缺而带来的种种发展限制。
He proposed several specific projects for ICT cooperation between Europe and China, such as developing driverless cars.
鲁乙己还针对信息通信技术领域中欧可能开展的合作提出了一些具体项目，其中包括无人驾驶汽车。
