And there are a number of corporate representatives here who I would like to acknowledge, because without your financial support, this magnificent USA Pavilion behind me would not be possible. Our global sponsors, PepsiCo, General Electric Corporation, and Chevron; our newest sponsors, Proctor and Gamble, Yum! Brands, Honeywell, Intel, Pfizer, and Qualcomm, and I want to note a special sponsor, Boeing, which has just agreed to double its contribution to $2 million to support this effort. We’re grateful for your generosity and your steadfast belief in the importance of the expo, the American role here, and what this USA Pavilion can do to strengthen cooperation and partnership between the American people and the people of China.
我还想感谢今天到场的许多公司的代表，因为没有你们资金的支持，就没有我身后这座宏大的美国馆。感谢我们的全球赞助商——百事公司、通用电气公司、雪佛龙公司，感谢我们最新的赞助商宝洁公司、百胜餐饮集团、霍尼韦尔公司、因特尔公司、辉瑞公司、高通公司，我还想感谢我们特别的赞助商波音公司，它刚刚同意将其对美国馆的赞助增加到200万美元。我们感激你们的慷慨赞助，你们对世博重要性和美国在世博发挥作用的坚定信心，对美国馆在加强美中两国人民的合作与伙伴关系的支持。
