Premier is our super-salesman, says plant boss

The upcoming merger of China's top two high-speed train manufacturers, CNR and CSR, will help the country to compete for a larger share of the global market, Premier Li Keqiang said on Friday.

"The merging of CNR and CSR will establish a jumbo, which will include not only locomotive manufacturing but also support industries," Li said.
