Prime minister Gordon Brown has revealed that closer links with China will create tens of thousands of jobs for British workers, which could be good news for students who are looking for graduate jobs in the future.
Mr Brown was speaking from Beijing on his first official visit to China and was keen to stress the importance of business links between the two countries.
"It's true we are able to sell to China not just financial and business services and environmental technologies, but also a whole range of British brands that are now becoming very popular among the rising number of Chinese consumers," Mr Brown said.
He added that he wants Britain to be the "first location for Chinese investment in Europe and the rest of the world".
According to the prime minister, Britain should be aiming to boost Chinese investment by 50 per cent by 2010.
Brown met with the Chinese president Hu Jintao and was greeted as "an old friend of the Chinese people".
Meanwhile, business secretary John Hutton has told the Evening Standard that British companies should not be scared by Chinese investment as it will be good for the country in the long run.
