70 Years of Economic Development and Policy In The People's Republic of China
China has had an enormous growth in GDP since the Cultural Revolution. As such, their influence on a global scale has grown astronomically. Following WWII but prior to Reform and Opening, China was not considered much of a threat by the Western world, but their growing influence on the world economy has allowed them to become a much louder voice when it comes to global issues. Since the acquisition of Hong Kong and Macau, that influence has only grown. In fact, China’s GDP continued to rise during the 2008 global recession when other nations stumbled and saw increases in public spending.
自文化大革命以来，中国的GDP增长了很多。因此，中国在世界事务中的影响力增长了很多。第二次世界大战后但在改革开放之前，西方并不认为中国是威胁，但它们对经济的增加增长的影响已导致其他国家在全球问题上更多地听取它们的意见。自从再次控制香港和澳门以来，中国在世界上的影响力越来越大。2008年，世界其他地区正在亏损，而其他国家的政府不得不为此付出巨资，中国的GDP下去增长。
