　　When Americans in the manufacturing sector (制造业) cried out, “The Chinese are coming,” some years ago, they expressed a restless concern and warning about a possible loss of job opportunities. Now Americans in the tourism industry issued the same cry on June 17 — but this time, it was a welcome call to greet the first organized group of Chinese tourists to the United States. U.S. tourism officials have high expectations that well-off Chinese visitors, who are ready and willing to spend loads of yuan, will give a big help to their industry.

　　“We’re very excited,” said Helen N. Marano, Director of the Office of Travel and Tourism Industries under the U.S. Department of Commerce. Before she talked to Beijing Review on June 17, Marano and her colleagues had been waiting for more than two hours at Washington Dulles International Airport to give a warm welcome to the first organized group of Chinese tourists to visit the United States.

　　The first group consisted of 250 tourists, who left from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong on June 17, the day when newly appointed Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan and U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson started the fourth round of the China-U.S. Strategic Economic Dialogue (SED) in Annapolis, Maryland. Each was backed by a big group of heavyweight ministerial officials.
