As Vice-Chairman of the Bulgaria China Chamber of Commerce, I was very glad to represent eight Bulgarian companies at the 2021 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS).
非常开心又机会在中国国际服务贸易交易会（CIFTIS）代表八家保加利亚的企业！
It was a great pleasure for me to deliver a keynote speech on the state of the Bulgarian service sector! The feedback from Chinese companies, investors and officials was immensely positive!
我非常荣幸发言给中国的企业、投资者与官员介绍保加利亚的服务行业！
On behalf of the Bulgaria China Chamber of Commerce and Industry, I would like to sincerely thank the organizers for inviting us to join, and for taking care of our needs during CIFTIS. I would also like to thank the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria to the PRC for its strong support of our efforts. It was an honor to have the Head of Mission and Chargé d’Affaires (ad interim) Ivaylo Yordanov visit our stand and deliver remarks praising our work.
我代表保加利亚中国工业商会衷心感谢主办方邀请我们参CIFTIS，并照顾我们的团队。我还要感谢保加利亚共和国驻华大使馆对我们工作的大力支持，特别感谢临时代办Ivaylo Yordanov先生发表评论称赞我们的工作！
Trade in goods is becoming increasingly saturated, so the global economic growth will soon depend on expanding trade in services. Both Bulgarian and European businesses are placing an increasingly large focus on the China as one of the world’s largest and fastest growing markets. This is why events such as CIFTIS are a step towards a brighter future.
货物贸易目前在一个比较成熟的阶段，所以全球经济的发展将取决于服务贸易。保加利亚和欧洲的企业越来越看重中国的市场，这是世界上最大的，发展最快的市场之一，所以对我们来说服贸会越来越重要！
This year, CIFTIS took place between from Sep 3 to Sep 7 in Beijing, attracting both national and global interest. In the run-up to the fair, the entire 30-million mega-city was decorated in banners advertising the event and reiterating its importance. I look forward to participating again next year!
今年的服贸会在北京举行，9月3日开始，7日结束，吸引了全球和全中国的关注。前几周，整个北京市都有服贸会的广告揭示服贸会的重要性。我期待明年再次参加！
