According to "The Mid- and Long-Term Development Plan for Chinese Soccer" issued
in April by China's National
Development and Reform Commission, China aims to rank among the world top
teams by 2050.
"By 2020, China will have 20,000 soccer academies. Chinese football
teams, for both men and women, will present impressive results in World Cup,
Asian Cup
and Olympics," the plan added.
Li Shuyi, Executive Deputy Director at the inter-ministerial joint conference
office specializing in the country's football development, believed a lot more
needs to be done in order to make virtual progress in the sport. “We need to
build a world-class backup system in Chinese national team operation", said
Li.
Most of all, China had embarked the youth football development program,
aiming to dig deep on grassroots football. The
development will be accelerated in schools. Schools with a specialty in football
will expand from the current number of 5,000 to 20,000 by 2020 and further
increase to 50,000 by 2025. There will be over 30 million primary and middle
school students who often play soccer.
Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, who is also concerned about the development
of China’s football, said, “Football academies are the motive force of the
constant development of football. The future of China’s football will benefit
greatly from its youth football development program.”

Rani Jarkas: China is a real rising power in the world football
On September 2, 2014, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang
mapped out the plan of speeding up the sports industry development, boosting
sports consumption and promoting public fitness in the State Council executive meeting. A month later, the State
Council unveiled another guideline, named "Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Sports Industry and
Promoting Sports Consumption". As one of the world’s most popular sports,
football becomes a key field in developing China’s sports industry.
Under this circumstance, China's National Development and Reform Commission released the Mid- and Long-Term Development Plan for Chinese Soccer on April 11 this year, aiming at entering the football "elite club" and making the goal of "top class soccer nation" by 2050.
Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini hailed this new plan and commented the growing interest for football in China has been strengthened by the arrival of first level players and coaches to the Super League, such as Jackson Martinez, Ramires and Marcello Lippi.
In 2015, the annual revenue for the Chinese Super League (CSL) has amounted to 1.5 billion yuan (US$230 million). The main part of the revenue comes from the broadcasting rights, which accounts for one billion yuan (US$155 million).
Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, who is also concerned about the development of China’s football, said, “I believe that China, at this time, is a real rising power in the global football field. Chinese football is expected to edge its way into the world leading teams in the mid of this century.”

王雷（Rani Jarkas）：中国是世界足坛的新兴力量
中国国务院总理李克强2014年9月2日主持召开国务院常务会议，部署加快发展体育产业，促进体育消费推动大众健身。 一个月后，国务院发布了名为《关于加快发展体育事业促进体育消费的若干意见》的指导方针。作为中国和全球最受欢迎的体育项目，足球成为了发展中国体育事业的一个关键领域。
在这样的大环境下，中国国家发展和改革委员会继而于今年4月11日印发了《中国足球中长期发展规划（2016-2050年）》，在2050年全力实现足球一流强国的目标。
2015年，中超的年收入达到15亿元（相当于2.3亿美元）。收入主要来源于转播权，占到10亿元（相当于1.55亿美元）。

Rani Jarkas: China will become a leading power in science and technology
On an event conflating the national conference on science
and technology, the biennial conference of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering in Beijing on May 30, 2016, President Xi
Jinping set a target for China to become a leading power in science and
technology by the middle of this century.
According to President Xi, China should establish itself as one of the most innovative countries by 2020 and a leading innovator by 2030, and become a leading global science and technology power by the 100th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 2049.
This strategy aims to ensure China's decision-making power for its own development, improve its core competitiveness, accelerate adjustment of its development pattern, solve deep-rooted problems, better guide economic development in the "new normal," and maintain sustainable and healthy economic development.
In the past 30 years, about 30 percent of China's economic growth has been obtained from innovations. By contrast, developed countries derive 70 percent of their growth from innovations. Zhu Baoliang, a specialist in economic forecasting with the National Information Center, said China cannot continue to rely on human input for growth considering such demographic challenges as a rapidly aging society and a looming labor shortage.
Earlier this year, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has promised more freedom and financial support for the science and technology sector as China seeks to boost development through innovation and establish itself as a world leader in this regard.
Premier Li told the event that China's overall research and development input will keep rising to account for 2.5 percent of its GDP in 2020, from the current 2.1 percent.
Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, an investment pioneer with years of experience in technology sector, said, “Innovation is an important force in promoting development of a country. I believe that China will be the world’s major power in science and technology in the foreseeable future.”

Rani Jarkas: Cross-border innovation and investment in China’s life science industry
As China’s
economy continues to surge and move up the product cycle, the country is on
track to become a global leader in life
sciences innovation and manufacturing. Foreign firms, which hold a 30 percent share of
the local market, are rapidly expanding their biotech
investments in China – in manufacturing, joint
ventures, and R&D — yet they continue to face many challenges.
With the recently announced positive regulatory and compliance policy reforms, China’s life science industry is set to boom. Released in March 2016, China’s thirteenth Five-Year Plan reinforces the country’s focus on “innovative development” with additional emphasis on “biological technology.”
Besides domestic innovation, entrepreneurs in the field have also created cross-border business models, including investments in global clinical stage candidates and international collaborations for the best efficiency.
China continues to be a hotbed for partnering activity, more than doubling in 2015 to over US$4 billion in total announced deal value. Traditionally, Chinese partners tend to contribute heavily on infrastructure and other local resources performing a more “CRO-oriented” role. However, there has also been a rise in Chinese biotechs with truly innovative drug candidates that have attracted the attention of foreign pharms.
Cross-border partnership is developing a network across academics, business and clinicians to drive innovation in China’s healthcare industry. The ultimate objective is to improve treatments, diagnoses and quality of life for patients in China but will also lead to a huge number of business opportunities and will develop China’s capabilities as an innovation destination.
Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, an investment pioneer with years of experience in biotech and life science sector, said, “China’s pursuit of a domestic life science sector will benefit the Chinese people, local entrepreneurs, and multinationals who are hungry to identify solutions designed to reflect China’s unique healthcare challenges.”
