習近平在口信中指出，中美達成第一階段經(jīng)貿協(xié)議，有利于中美兩國，有利于世界。

"It also shows that our two countries have the ability to act on the basis of equality and mutual respect, and work through dialogue and consultation to properly handle and effectively resolve relevant issues," read the message.

這也說明，中美雙方完全可以在平等和相互尊重的基礎上，通過對話磋商找到有關問題的妥善處理和有效解決辦法。

In the next step, the two sides need to implement the agreement in real earnest and optimize its positive impact, so as to make even greater progress in China-U.S. trade and economic cooperation, the Chinese president said.

In that spirit, Xi voiced hope that the U.S. side will treat fairly Chinese companies and their regular economic, trade and investment activities, and give support to the collaboration between enterprises, research institutes, and schools and colleges of the two countries, as it will help enhance mutual trust and cooperation between the two sides.

本著這一精神，希望美方公平對待中國企業(yè)正常經(jīng)貿和投資活動，支持兩國企業(yè)、科研機構、學校開展合作，促進中美互信與合作。

"China is prepared to work with the United States in that direction. And I will stay in close touch with you personally," Xi said. "I believe that under our guidance, China-U.S. relations will deliver more results and bring greater benefits to our peoples in the year ahead."

中方愿與美方相向而行。我愿與你保持密切聯(lián)系，相信在我們共同引領下，中美關系在新的一年能夠給兩國人民帶來更多利益和實惠。
