STEPHEN PERRY: TORCH BEARER OF SINO-BRITISH FRIENDSHIP

In 1953, overcoming various obstacles, Stephen Perry's father Jack Perry led dozens of British businessmen to travel to China, kicking off the "Icebreaking Mission" to help bridge Sino-British relations.

It is quite common to follow one's father's footsteps. However, for Stephen Perry, chairman of Britain's 48 Group Club, he must possess extraordinary courage and insight to take over the reins.

The Perrys, with a great affinity towards China, were once misunderstood and isolated by their British peers back home, but never stopped promoting a solid relationship with China.

For years, Stephen Perry and other members in the 48 Group Club dedicated themselves to the "Icebreaking Mission," promoting the bilateral programmatic cooperation and safe-guarding the Sino-UK friendship from generation to generation.
