Abstract:
Based on the Egyptian National Library and Archives and the Pyramid Newspaper, this article reviews the historical context for six batches of Chinese students that were officially sent to Al-Azhar University between 1931 and 1938. Upon returning to China, these students became academic leaders. They translated the Qur’an and a large number of Arabic books, spread Islamic culture in China, acted as a link between Chinese and Egyptian Muslims, promoted friendship between China and Egypt, and strengthened the overall relationship between Chinese and Egyptian people. Hence, this period in history not only had an important impact on China and Egypt, but also served as a starting point for strengthening the relationship between the two countries.

Abstract:
Although the Zhanggongxiang kiln has been confirmed as an official kiln, it is difficult to determine linkage with specific dynasties across its history. This study compares the relationship between the ding celadon incense burner of Zhanggongxiang and Goryeo on the basis of shape progress. Through this research, this study deduces the date of manufacture of the celadon ding incense burner and its respective social function. To overcome the limitations of existing references, this study presents a new research perspective. The main conclusions are: 1) During the spread of Daoism, the ritual bronze was bestowed by the Song Emperor; the Goryeo celadon ding motivated by Song bronze, moreover, was used for religious rituals and developed its shape relatively clearly. 2) The Goryeo celadon ding is classified by three deformed and decorative features. The characteristic of the Zhanggongxiang celadon ding is a similar type with the previous type in Goryeo celadon ding. Hence, it is estimated that the artifact was manufactured between year 1123 and the middle to late 12th century. 3) The celadon ding incense burner and the Eight Trigrams decorative graphic reflect both the linkage with Daoism and the political needs of the Emperor. These celadons help enhance our comprehension of the historical times in which they were created.

Abstract:
China and Laos are neighbors by water. The two countries are both located in Asia and their cooperation is not only limited to human interaction; China and Laos also have strong economic collaboration. Under the proposed Belt and Road Initiative, the economic cooperation between China will enable Laos to further develop its economic sector. In particular, the adoption of the China-Indochina Economic Corridor Initiative since 2016 has laid the foundation for the expansion of economic cooperation and the development of the economic integration model between China and Laos. This article offers an overview of the Belt and Road strategy. It analyzes the economic cooperation between China and Laos, and then explores the economy of China and Laos under the context of “One Belt One Road”, relative to the modes, industrial structures, and levels of economic cooperation. The development opportunities aim to strengthen mutual understanding of the economic cooperation between the two countries.

Abstract:
Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between Mongolia and China 70 years ago, bilateral cooperation has developed from a simple exchange of commodities to multiple fields of cooperation spanning the economy, trade, and industry; with this change, the exchange of culture and people has increased in size and frequency. In recent years, the leaders of both sides have emphasized that the comprehensive strategic partnership between Mongolia and China is at its best point in history. The cultural exchange and cooperation between Mongolia and China are an important part of the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries. In November 2015, the Joint Statement of Mongolia and the People’s Republic of China on Deepening the Development of Comprehensive Strategic Partnership proposed that the two sides will study and establish a Mongolian-Chinese Common Committee for humanities exchange, comprehensively promote cooperation in the field of cultural exchange and humanities between the two countries, and consolidate the basis of friendship between their respective citizens. In December 2017, the foreign ministers of Mongolia and China issued a joint press release, which stated that the two sides agreed to actively carry out exchanges spanning culture, education, science and technology, sports, tourism, youth, and other fields in order to enhance mutual understanding and trust. In early 2018, the first meeting of the Mongolian-Chinese Common Committee on Humanities Exchange was co-chaired in Beijing. The two sides reached consensus on a number of issues and signed meeting minutes. This paper tries to analyze possible shortcomings of the two sides in the cultural and humanities exchange from the perspective of Mongolian-Chinese cultural cooperation. Further, the paper offers some suggestions to enhance the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two sides.

Abstract:
Djibouti is an important gateway to Africa for the “21st Century Maritime Silk Road”. The country has experienced positive economic development over the past ten years. A politically stable and economically successful Djibouti would facilitate China’s cooperation with other countries in the region, and economically benefit the Great Horn region by exploiting the “flying geese Model”. The paper starts with an overview of Djibouti after 1977 as well as its relationship with neighboring countries and world powers. Then, the paper explores Djibouti’s political system and its path of economic development. Ethiopia is the most influential country for Djibouti in Africa, so studying the relationship between Ethiopia and Djibouti is an unavoidable step in further understanding this country in depth. Djibouti is an important participating country of the Maritime Silk Road. In recent years, China and Djibouti have developed a very close relationship in many fields and at different levels. Accordingly, the fifth part of this paper focuses on the China-Djibouti relationship. Finally, the last part of the paper is dedicated to a case study, analyzing four Chinese companies in Djibouti. Their investment and operating characteristics are different but each of them represents a strategy for overseas investment.

Abstract:
Oceans are an important place for the integration of civilizations and a link for economic exchange among the countries of the world. The 21st century Maritime Silk Road covers many countries across three continents. These countries have various geographical characteristics, resources, cultures, and customs. Based on the theory of geopolitics, this paper analyzes the political difficulties faced by the Maritime Silk Road; specifically, the paper clarifies the potential geopolitical problems and categorizes countries according to their geopolitical characteristics. The paper then offers suggestions for avoiding political risks, while exploring business opportunities. In this context, China is breaking the traditional military competition between super powers to build a new world order through economic development and international trade, emphasizing a peaceful rise in the new era.
