尊敬的州長，各位嘉賓，女士們、先生們，下午好！
我很自豪能夠出任FISITA主席（2018-2020），從而躋身于該組織70年歷史上受人尊敬的主席們之列。而有機會領導這樣一個代表著全球37個成員國和近21萬名汽車工程師的國際組織，尤其是在其聚焦于技術開放及產業(yè)化以有力支持人類社會出行升級的新時期，我倍感榮幸。
眾所周知，能源消耗、環(huán)境污染、交通擁擠和行車安全等諸多問題對百年汽車產業(yè)提出了嚴峻挑戰(zhàn)。與此同時，信息、互聯(lián)、大數(shù)據(jù)、人工智能等新技術也給產業(yè)帶來了前所未有的挑戰(zhàn)和機遇。全球汽車產業(yè)正在經(jīng)歷一場重大變革，產業(yè)將由此漸趨無邊界。所以對我們而言，跨越不同大洲以及不同行業(yè)的緊密合作將比以往任何時候都更加重要。
作為一個中國人，我在日本、英國和美國學習工作了近20年。我的國際經(jīng)驗告訴我，溝通、友誼、合作是人類共同的天性，這無關宗教信仰或民族屬性。只要你敞開胸襟用心去理解和接受他人，地球就是平的。而這正是FISITA必須讓全世界工程師共同努力、創(chuàng)造美好未來的基本理念。作為FISITA的主席，我想再次強調合作、交流與分享的重要性，這將使我們的產業(yè)更好，使我們的組織更好，并且最終使我們的生活更好。
我鐘愛FISITA的重要原因之一是其連續(xù)性和一貫卓越，這是由主席、預備主席和前任主席的組織設定來保障的。在過去的兩年里，我和前任主席Dan Nicholson步調一致地緊密合作；而在接下來的兩年里，我將和預備主席NadineLeclair一起加倍努力地工作，以繼續(xù)確保FISITA領導層的繼承性，這樣我們就可以作為一個團隊向著長遠的愿景而不斷前進。
作為新任主席，我將和此前諸位主席一樣致力于團隊工作，與所有的支持者共同形成團隊——與執(zhí)行委員會合作，與榮譽委員會合作，與能夠幫助推動我們組織向前發(fā)展的每一個人合作。同時，我想用三個關鍵詞來強調我的工作重點：即質量、參與和認可。當前，F(xiàn)ISITA正處于一個全新的時代，我們將成為推動人類社會出行轉型進程的重要組織。因此，高質量發(fā)展是我任期內的關鍵。我們將歡迎各會員國以及成員企業(yè)更加積極地開展和參與各種活動。我們也將努力找到一種模式，讓我們的成員更多地受益，并且讓我們有影響力的關鍵個人和杰出支持者們的重大貢獻，在全球范圍內得到更大的認可。為此，我懇請大家和我一起努力，讓我們的家園FISITA變得更加美好！
最后，借此機會我想對組織本次年會的印度同仁們表示衷心的感謝——正是他們的盛情款待才使我們能在如此短暫的停留中體驗到如此之多，我想大家都會期待有機會再來印度。也感謝你們所有人，大家千里迢迢來到金奈——是你們使本次年會取得了巨大的成功——愿大家過得開心。讓我們兩年之后在捷克的布拉格再次相聚！
謝謝大家，并祝大家返程路上平安順利！

Honorable Governer, distinguished guests,ladies and gentlemen Good afternoon
I am very proud to be serving as the President ofFISITA for 2018-2020 amongst a very distinguished group of Presidents who haveserved over the last 70 years of history. I feel honored to have such a greatopportunity of leading such an international organization representing nearly210 thousands of engineers from 37 countries focusing on technologiesdevelopment and industrialization to support mobility for our societies.
As all of you know manychallenges such as energy issues, pollution, traffic congestion and safety are ahead of our more than 100years old industry. Meanwhile the new technologies such as IT, connectivity ,big data, AI and so on are bringing in significant challenges and opportunitiesto our industry. Our industry is undergoing a major transformation. Theindustry is becoming borderless. So now than ever, collaboration across theindustries and across the continents is far more important for our industry.
As a Chinese native I spentnearly twenty years overseas studying and working in Japan, UK and US. Myinternational experience tells me communication, collaboration and friendshipare the common natures of human beings regardless of your religion or nationalities.The planet is flat if you are open-minded and trying to understand and acceptothers. That is the fundamental personality FISITA has to get engineers aroundthe world to work together to make our future better. As the President ofFISITA. I want to re-emphasize the importance of communication, collaborationand sharing to make our industry better, make our community better and the endof the day make our life better.
I like FISITA the most isthe continuity and continued excellence that have been built up by theorganizational setup of President, President Elect and Past President. I reallyfeel very aligned in working with our Past President Dan Nicholson for the lasttwo years and I will work very hard with our President Elect Nadine Leclair during thenext two years to make sure that the leadership of FISITA has continuity andthat we are driving forward all the time as a team with long-term vision.
As the new President, what you can expect from me isthe team work, teaming with all the constituencies the past presidents havedone - working with the Executive Board, working with the Honorary Committee,working together with everyone who can help move the organisation forward. MeanwhileI want to use three key words to emphasize the focus of my jobs: Quality,Involvement and recognition. To my knowledge, FISITA enters a new era ofevolving into a well-respected internal organization in mobility community. QUALITYIS THE KEY WORD OF MY TERM OF PRESIDENCY. We will welcome moreactive involvements of member societies and corporate members. Meanwhile wewill make a great effort to find a way to deliver more benefits to our membersand promote global recognitions of significant contributions from our keyinfluential individuals and outstanding supporters. I want to ask all of you tojoin me to work hard together to make our home FISITA better.
Finally I would like tomorrow this stage to thank our Indian friends for their great hospitality – weenjoyed so much for the short stay and we love to come back, thank you all ofyou who travelled thousands of miles to Chennai – it is you who made this eventa great success – I hope you all had a great fun. We look forward to seeing allof you two years later in Prague, Czech.
Thank you and wish you a safe trip back home!
