The “Belt and Road” construction in the post-epidemic era and the wave of global infrastructure construction In 2013, President Xi Jinping put forward the major initiative of "One Belt One Road",
which opened a magnificent chapter for China to provide new public products for global governance.
In 2015, the State Council authorized the issuance of the "Vision and Actions for Promoting
the Joint Construction of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road", which regards policy communication,
facility connectivity, unimpeded trade, financing, and people-to-people connections
as the main content, and insists on sharing Based on the principles of business, co-construction and sharing,
we will jointly create an open, inclusive, balanced and inclusive regional economic cooperation framework. Among them, infrastructure interconnection and interoperability have been identified as priority areas. After that, the Chinese government adhered to the principle of "actions speak
louder than words" and quickly and proactively transformed policy initiatives into international actions.
As the core content of the “Belt and Road” initiative, infrastructure projects occupy a strong policy priority
in the “Belt and Road” initiative, and the investment made so far accounts for about 70% of the total investment.
To make up for the global infrastructure shortage, China has made a huge contribution
The global infrastructure gap or infrastructure construction deficit has become a "urgency" and a "key bottleneck"
for global sustainable development. This pressure is reflected in different statistics: Oxford Economics’ "Global Infrastructure Outlook" report estimates that from 2016 to 2040, the global infrastructure
investment demand will reach US$94 trillion, with an average annual investment of US$3.7 trillion. , The current world infrastructure investment gap has reached 19%, and countries can only fill up the investment share
to 3.5% of the gross domestic product (GDP). The Asian Development Bank predicted in 2017 that the Asian region will need US$26 trillion in infrastructure investment by 2030 to meet the region’s power,
transportation, communications, water and sanitation needs. The "Global Infrastructure Center" predicts that by 2040, there will be a gap of $15 trillion between global infrastructure demand and planned investment.
