Forty years ago this month, 3,000 cases of Coca-Cola arrived in Beijing and Guangzhou from Hong Kong by train, marking a long-awaited return of the iconic US beverage to the Chinese mainland.
The shipment came immediately after the People's Republic of China and the United States established diplomatic relations on Jan. 1, 1979, a historical event that has changed the political and economic landscape of the world over the past four decades.
"Psychologically, we had been ready for the moment for a long time," said Zhang Jiantao, vice president of Coca-Cola Greater China, Republic of Korea, and Mongolia. "For a multinational company like Coca-Cola, it was impossible not to explore the Chinese market. It was not a question of if, but how to return to the mainland."
With strong complementarity, China and the US have forged deeply-intertwined economic and trade ties over the past four decades, benefiting businesses and people from both sides.

Sino-US relations have undergone serious difficulties, which were entirely due to the unwise China policy of the United States.
