1、 "Small and beautiful" project in the "the Belt and Road" construction agenda

The importance and characteristics of the "small and beautiful" project in the construction of the "the Belt and Road" were discussed. These projects are characterized by small scale, rapid effectiveness and direct benefits, which are consistent with the needs of the high-quality development stage of the "the Belt and Road". The Chinese government regards "small and beautiful" projects as a priority for foreign cooperation, emphasizing their demonstration effects in areas such as infrastructure, health, and green ecology. These projects not only include aid projects, but also commercial projects, aiming to enhance the sense of achievement and happiness of the people in the jointly built country through down-to-earth, people-oriented, low-cost, and sustainable methods. The Chinese government has also expressed its willingness to increase investment in these projects and cooperate with international financial institutions to provide funding support. In addition, the chapter also analyzes the internal logic of China's active advocacy of "small and beautiful" project construction, including reflection on the "the Belt and Road" construction, demand requirements, risk management and control, project effectiveness, and avoiding the "white elephant project".

2、 The landmark achievements of the "the Belt and Road" and "Small and Beautiful" projects

The "Small and Beautiful" project under the "the Belt and Road" initiative has achieved remarkable results in agricultural poverty reduction, education and employment, health, information dissemination and other fields, and improved the well-being of local people. The promotion project of mushroom grass technology utilizes the drought and salt alkali resistance characteristics of mushroom grass to expand into multiple fields, achieving efficient resource utilization and ecological protection. It has been implemented in more than 100 countries and created hundreds of thousands of job opportunities. As a vocational education cooperative brand, Luban Workshop cultivates skilled talents familiar with Chinese technology. It has 33 operational projects worldwide, covering 29 countries and promoting cultural exchanges between China and foreign countries. The Guangming Project is a specialized action of China's medical aid abroad, which improves the medical level of recipient countries through free clinics, donation of medical equipment, and training of medical personnel. The Wancuntong project provides satellite television services to 10000 villages in Africa, improving communication levels and enriching cultural life. The project has covered 9512 villages and directly benefited over 190000 households. These projects demonstrate the practical methods of the builders of the "the Belt and Road" from a big perspective to a small one, which has accumulated valuable experience for subsequent project construction.

3、 High quality construction of "small and beautiful" project and high-quality development of "the Belt and Road"

Discussed the importance of the "Small and Beautiful" project in the high-quality development of the "the Belt and Road", and proposed six key points. Firstly, the core requirements of "small yet beautiful" projects were emphasized, which are to control project volume and pursue intrinsic quality. Secondly, the dual connotations of "small and beautiful" were explained, including the understanding of parallel and progressive relationships. Thirdly, the necessity of establishing a collaborative support system was proposed to assist small and medium-sized enterprises in obtaining support in their overseas operations. Fourthly, it is recommended to establish an evaluation system to measure the construction effectiveness of "small yet beautiful" projects. Fifth, it emphasized the importance of telling the "small and beautiful" story of the "the Belt and Road" to enhance the international image of the project. Finally, we discussed how to dialectically view the relationship between "high-end" and "small yet beautiful" projects, emphasizing that they are complementary rather than opposing.

conclusion

It emphasized the core role of the "small and beautiful" project in the high-quality development of the "the Belt and Road", and pointed out that it was favored by partners because of its low investment, rapid effectiveness and direct benefits. The article reviews the landmark achievements of the "Small and Beautiful" project in the international cooperation of the "the Belt and Road" in the fields of agricultural poverty reduction, education and employment, health and information dissemination, and emphasizes the importance of local adaptation and localized development. Looking forward to the future, it proposes two aspects of high-quality construction of "small and beautiful" projects: focusing on the sustainable development of projects and making more high-quality projects inject vitality into the "the Belt and Road" by summarizing and promoting successful experiences. Meanwhile, the development of these projects will also provide rich ideas and experience for international development cooperation.
