Focusing on the phenomena of low person-post matching, professionalism mismatching and talents potential deficit emerging in the development process of the international students from the countries of the Belt and Road Initiative, this paper adopted the Grounded Theory as the research method and investigated the employment units along the routes, the employed international students who returned homeland as well as those who stayed in in China. Subject analysis, open coding and selective coding were applied as analysis methods to construct the mode of factors affecting career development of the international students in China. Based on the results, the author suggested that universities and colleges attach greater importance to career education of the Belt and Road Initiative international students in China, explore and set up a career development education system and occupational exploration platforms for countries along the route, develop a curriculum platform closely combined with Chinese culture, and build up a practical platform suitable for international students.

This article summarizes the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which was carried out 5 years ago. To date the basic institutional framework has been set up, some key infrastructural projects launched; joint development zones established and supporting systems have been set up to ensure the smooth infrastructure development of BRI. This article also explains the important factors why China proposed and implemented the initiative: accelerating world economic growth particularly for the developing countries, promoting economic globalization, improving global governance, and supporting UN Agenda 2030 for sustainable development. Based on the 5 years’ experience of the Belt and Road implementation, the initiative reflects correctly the mega trend of world development and global cooperation, as well as the common interests of China and other relevant participating countries. A promising future for the initiative is most likely; however, careful feasibility study for investments is required to manage debt risk well for both the investors and the receivers of the investments.

There has been a wave of discourses about Chinese geopolitics along with the quick rise of China, particularly with the Belt and Road Initiative and recent rivalry between the US and China. An et al.’s (2021) ‘Towards a Confucian Geopolitics’ opens a new door to such discourses. While welcoming the notion of hybrid Confucian geopolitics proposed by their article, this commentary raises several critical questions. These questions concern whether everything about China should be interpreted through geopolitical reasoning, whether Confucianism is fundamental and deterministic in contemporary Chinese culture, what is really special to new Chinese geopolitics if anything, and whether China’s Belt and Road Initiative can be understood as a cultural project. Answers to these questions may help to consolidate a new Chinese geopolitics.

At present, “The Belt and Road” initiative has risen from the China initiative to an international consensus and has become a popular international public product and a high-profle international cooperation platform. As the soul of the “Belt and Road”, culture’s leading advantages can promote the all-round and multi-feld exchanges and cooperation between China and various countries along “The Belt and Road”. As an important carrier for spreading Chinese culture, domestic flms play an important role in further expanding the international communication practice of Chinese cultural influence. This paper takes the flm “Xuan Zang” as an example, explores the new international communication practices of domestic flms under the framework of “The Belt and Road”, sums up the new path of domestic flm international communication, and looks forward to the new opportunities and bright prospects of cooperation in the feld of flm and television art under the framework of “The Belt and Road”.

Since China's proposal of the “Belt and Road” initiative in 2013, the relationship between China and Southeast Asia has continued to develop. This achievement is inseparable from a large number of overseas Chinese living in Southeast Asia. As an indispensable and unique force to promote the construction of the “Belt and Road”, the Southeast Asians Chinese have played an irreplaceable role: such as support of Chinese culture spreading, building confidence and disambiguation among countries, and economic and trade cooperation. The problems and challenges facing Chinese culture in Southeast Asia are not only related to the development of Chinese society in Southeast Asia but also the current development of Chinese native culture. To overcome the problems and challenges encountered in the process of inheriting Chinese culture in Southeast Asia, we must clearly understand the status of overseas Chinese and the role that overseas Chinese can play to maximize their role and influence as carriers and bridges.

China’s Belt and Road Initiative could be treated ambiguously. On the one hand, it is intended to transform the newly acquired economic potential of that country into its higher status in the world. China invites a lot of nations to build up gigantic transit corridors by joint efforts, and doing so it applies productively its capital and technologies. International transactions in RMB are also being expanded. But, on the other hand, the Belt and Road Initiative is also a necessity for China to cope with some evident problems of its current stage of development, such as industrial overcapacity, overdependence on imports of raw materials from a narrow circle of countries, and a subordinate status in global value chains. For Russia participation in the Belt and Road Initiative may be fruitful, since the very character of that project provides us with a space to manoeuvre. By now, Russian exports to China consist primarily of fuels and other commodities. More active industrial policy is needed to correct this situation . A flexible framework of the Belt and Road Initiative is more suitable for this objective to be achieved, rather than traditional forms of regional integration, such as a free trade zone.
