坚韧不拔 | Jiān rèn bù bá

Xi Jinping’s “one belt, one road(一带一路)” initiative aims to feed China’s unprecedented economic growth through the creation of a trading area beginning in its own backyard. In his closing speech at a summit discussing the initiative, Xi harks back to the builders of the original Silk Road, recalling their dogged spirits: 坚韧不拔的进取精神. Fraught with difficulties so far, establishing a modern-day road will rely on dogged spirits too.
