Lord Sassoon’s visit to China

November 9, 2016

The annual CBBC Chairman’s visit to China ended on Friday night with a big party. Lord Sassoon was joined by three hundred people to celebrate the 20th anniversary of CBBC’s Chengdu office. A panel of guests talked about the monumental change that had taken place in Chengdu, and also the role of the CBBC over the past two decades. Earlier in the visit, the CBBC delegation met senior central government officials in Beijing and the Party Secretary of Shanghai, Han Zhen. We were proud to have sponsored the interpreting service for the annual mission for the third year running. Kevin was pleased to be told by interpreters on the Chinese side, throughout the visit, that they had all read his book on interpreting.
