Abstract

The year of 2016 was the first year of the 13th Five-Year Plan of China, and also the first year of High-Speed railway and mass transit to “go global” in large scale as referred to by the media. The smooth implementation of many projects has not only demonstrated the good situation of China High-Speed Railway (CHSR) going global, but also released powerful kinetic energy to push ahead the Belt and Road Initiative and international production capacity cooperation. However, in this comforting situation, we should think more calmly and remain sober about the challenges and risks for the High-Speed railway (HSR) to go global, so as to assist it to go global more stable and farther.
