Dr Lou believes that in the context of globalization, cross-border investment and merger and acquisition projects are widely carried out, and cross-border commercial disputes are also increasing. As Chinese companies go global, they need comprehensive cross-border legal services, which inevitably requires Chinese lawyers and foreign lawyers to work together to meet challenges. Shenzhen is an important international open window of China, with advanced technology and financial industry. It is a good choice for foreign enterprises to invest in China. Dr Lou also Shared his experience in developing international business in Hong Kong and Japan. During the interactive session, the audience asked about the impact of China's "One Belt And One Road" initiative on Fiji and how Chinese companies should respect the laws and culture of their host countries when investing abroad. Dr. Lou gave a detailed answer and explanation. The discussion was lively and the audience applauded warmly for the comments of the guests.
