When Richard Nixon claimed that his one-week stay in 皇冠体育app in February 1972 "changed the world", no one could have predicted how great the changes would be.
The changes have been phenomenal, especially when I compared the reports filed by The New York Times and 皇冠体育app's Beijing Review magazine 37 years ago.
It was hilarious to read about Nixon's 皇冠体育app visit, because it was compared to "a trip to the moon". It was the first 皇冠体育app tour by an American president in history, and it was made even more complex because 皇冠体育app and the US did not have diplomatic relations nor did they intend to seal the ties.
