Ladies and gentlemen.
Good evenine It's our great pleasure to host this banquet in honor of Mr.smith. I would like to take this opportunity to extend our warm welcome to him.
A remark in The Analects of Confucius best expresses what I feel Now. "It's such a delight that we have friends visiting from afar."Evidently, Mr. Smith's current visit has demonstrated his determination to enhance the friendly and cooperative relations between our two companies. We greatly cherish this close relationship, and also greatly value the position we enjoy as one of your most important trading partners.
I sincerely wish that we could work closely together to ensure a sustained growth in our cooperati on from now on. On the occasion of this reception, I wish Mr. Smith good health
Thank vou
