On September 19, "the 5th Energy Forum" co-sponsored by the National Energy Administration and the Chinese Academy of Engineering was held at the Beijing Convention Center. He Jun, Director of Economic Research Center and senior researcher at ANBOUND, delivered a keynote speech entitled "China-US Trade War and China's Oil & Gas Security". He was the only speaker from independent think tank to be invited. Mr. He Jun demonstrated the impact of Sino-US trade friction on China's energy industry and a clear solution to resolve the issues. It was highly praised by the experts at the Forum.

Unlike other research institutions attending the Forum, ANBOUND's research perspective focuses on the strategy that explained the nature of Sino-US trade friction in terms of geo-competition and its impact on China's oil and gas security. The uniqueness of ANBOUND research methodology reflects the strategic vision and the judgment on future trends.
