Robert Kuhn,?chairman of the Kuhn Foundation and honoree of the China Reform Friendship Medal,?said that creating common prosperity exemplifies China's long-range vision to the years 2035 and 2050, when China's goal is to have become a "fully modernized, socialist nation".

He made the remarks at a Vision China event with the theme "The Long March from Red Boat", which was held in Jiaxing on Sunday.

Launched in 2018 by China Daily, Vision China invites political, business and academic speakers to tell China's story from a global perspective and discuss major China-related topics of international interest. Prior to this event, the talks had been held 19 times in places like Beijing, New York and London.
