Harvard Club Black-Tie Night | Diplomats
from 30 Nations, Business Leaders, and
Global Cultural Figures Gather in New
York
— FTCOC Annual Gala Held in the Historic
Grand Ballroom
— Mr. Ji Xiaohua, Founder, President,
and Renowned International Affairs
Commentator of Wall Street Satellite TV,
Invited for In-Depth Observation
[Special Report from New York]
On the evening of November 14, 2025, the
century-old Harvard Club of New York,
located in the heart of Manhattan,
hosted the annual Federal Transnational
Chamber of Commerce (FTCOC) Black-Tie
Gala and Cocktail Reception. Diplomats
from more than 30 countries, leaders
from New York’s business and political
communities, and prominent figures from
the international cultural and financial
sectors arrived one after another,
gathering in this historic venue for a
landmark night of global commerce and
cross-civilization exchange.
Elegant Hosts Set the Tone
Once guests were seated, the evening’s
special bilingual hosts—well-known New
York presenters Che Yaoyao and Sisi—took
the stage. With poised delivery and
fluent English–Chinese transitions, they
formally opened this high-level
international gala, instantly warming
the room with graceful professionalism
and lighthearted engagement.
**Chairman Michael’s Address:
“Let Cross-Border Cooperation and
People-to-People Exchange
Power the World”**
Amid applause, FTCOC Chairman Michael
delivered the opening remarks, welcoming
guests from around the globe and
emphasizing the significance of having
diplomats, entrepreneurs, and cultural
leaders gathered together in New York.
He stated:
“Tonight at the Harvard Club, we come
together not only to celebrate, but to
advance cross-border cooperation,
strengthen people-to-people friendship,
and help small and medium-sized
enterprises enter
the global market.”
He reaffirmed FTCOC’s commitment to
building international bridges through
business, culture, education, and
philanthropy—fostering a world that
grows closer through dialogue and
stronger through trust. His remarks
received repeated applause, setting the
evening’s core theme: cooperation,
trust, and connection.
A Classical Hall Filled with Global
Diplomacy and Elite Exchange
The iconic red walls, oil portraits,
vintage sconces, and sweeping staircase
of the Harvard Club’s Grand Ballroom
created an atmosphere of distinguished
British charm. Guests enjoyed a refined
culinary experience prepared by the
Club’s executive chef team, including:
• Pan-seared steak
• Roasted sea bass
• Shrimp platters
• A selection of red wines and classic
cocktails
• Ice-cream desserts and French pastries
• Fresh fruit salads and non-alcoholic
beverages
Amid the aroma of wine and soft music,
diplomats, entrepreneurs, and cultural
leaders engaged in lively conversation
and explored avenues for further
cooperation.
Distinguished Guests Illuminate the
Evening
The Gala gathered numerous influential
leaders from both the Chinese-American
community and the international cultural
sphere, including:
1. Dr. Jiang Jinxin, internationally
recognized Chinese leader
2. Mr. Xie Feng, prominent U.S. Chinese
community figure
3. Gerard, Mc Keon, Chairman of
the Black-Tie Elite Club
4. Ms. Li Yiling, representative of the
UN cultural system
… and many others.
Their presence gave the event diplomatic
depth, cultural resonance,
and global relevance.
FTCOC: A Bridge Connecting Economics,
Culture, and Diplomacy
As a certified 501(c)(3) international
organization, FTCOC is dedicated to:
1. Promoting cross-national business
cooperation
2. Serving global Chinese business
networks
3. Advancing diplomacy and
people-to-people exchange

Its Black-Tie Annual Gala is widely
regarded as one of the premier social
events for New York’s political,
business, and diplomatic communities.

**Mr. Ji Xiaohua’s Insight:
“Here, the World Sees the Power of Civil
Society”**
Special guest Mr. Ji Xiaohua, Founder,
President, and internationally respected
commentator of Wall Street Satellite TV,
shared his observations with our
network:
“This is where global business, culture,
and diplomacy intersect—an authentic
platform for civil-society dialogue in
the era of globalization. The
contributions of the global Chinese
community are seen, respected, and
amplified here.”
He emphasized that such gatherings
enhance international trust in the
Chinese diaspora and facilitate deeper
cultural dialogue, business
partnerships, and cross-cultural
understanding.
A Night of Civilizational Exchange and
Warm International Cooperation
From diplomatic conversations to
cultural dialogue, from intellectual
exchange among global elites to emerging
cross-sector collaborations, this
black-tie gala was far more than a
social event—it was a living snapshot of
global interaction in practice.
Individuals from diverse cultures and
backgrounds advanced mutual
understanding through etiquette,
sincerity, and shared wisdom—all under
the historic roof of the Harvard Club.
