"New Silk Road" is started in Taiwan that is described by Major Hsieh: Because the market in China is very big and tempting, Taiwan can not prevent Taiwanese companies or the global enterprises heading toward China; therefore, Taiwan should reset its position at this point. He defined that Taiwan is the transfer center for goods to go to China around the world. On the other hand, it means Intervention. Foreign Japanese companies should utilize this ocean silk road from Taiwan to China in order to have overall understanding of culture, business, and market in China. Yet, those issues might be vital for foreign enterprises to be familiar with before the investment. There are many defeated cases of foreigners invested in China due to the market pressures. If Japan or other countries regard Taiwan as the developing center and delivering center, they will enhance the chances of successes by utilizing Taiwan's experienced employees.
謝市長闡述「新絲路」是以台灣為定位：因中國市場是非常有誘惑力的大市場，台灣無法阻擋台商及世界性的企業前往中國，因此，台灣應該在這個趨勢下，自我重新定位；他將台灣定位為「外商進入中國的運籌轉運中樞站」，就是「介面」，現在外商要到中國市場，以「台灣到中國」這條海洋絲路為路線，因為中國的文化、政治、市場等特性，不是所有外商所了解，很多外商在市場壓力下去中國投資，但失敗的案例也很多，日本與歐美國家若能在前進中國前，以台灣為研發中心或營運中心，用台灣有經驗幹部，再進入中國投資，則成功機率較高。
