LONDON, Oct. 20 (Xinhua) — “My family is involved with China in every sense … that is just part of our DNA,” Stephen Perry told Xinhua when fondly recalling his family legacy of interacting with the remote country in East Asia.
Together with his father Jack, Stephen is part of a select group of people who played a major role in what one could call “breaking the ice” regarding China’s trade with the world.
Stephen Perry has now taken over from Jack the helm of the 48 Group Club, an independent British business network committed to promoting links with China.
