The dialogue session was moderated by CHEN Feng, a post-doctoral fellow from the School of Public Administration of UCAS, and more than 10 master's and doctoral students from China and internationally had a lively discussion on how to strengthen the promotion of e-commerce on the Silk Road and how to better promote digital cooperation in e-commerce on the Silk Road in the context of the Belt and Road Initiative. At the beginning of the discussion, everyone explained the concept of Silk Road e-commerce with their own experience and understanding, further deepening their understanding of the concept and connotation of Silk Road e-commerce. Afterwards, in order to demonstrate the Silk Road e-commerce cooperation process more vividly and explore the potential problems that may exist in the digital cooperation process, the students spontaneously formed Chinese and international delegations to role-play the Silk Road e-commerce digital cooperation process. The international students were matched with the Chinese Alibaba Taobao platform "leaders" with their own country's resource characteristics and e-commerce development vision, and had an in-depth and lively discussion on the demands and challenges of digital cooperation respectively. All participants expressed their views and achieved fruitful results.
