这种看法是非常错误的。
This is quite the wrong perception.
美国有不少人指责中国在经济、科技和军事等各个领域“挑战”美国，并提出对华“竞赢”目标。这种错误认知让美国采取了错误的对华态度和做法，成为中美关系持续紧张的主要原因。
Quite a number of voices in the U.S. are accusing China of “challenging” the U.S. in various realms —economically, technologically and militarily, and the authorities also proposed the goal of “outcompeting China”. Such wrong perceptions towards China have caused the U.S. to adopt negative attitudes and measures, which has been the main reason for the tense situation between the two countries in recent years.
对中国而言，最重要的就是发展。中国一直珍视改革开放以来取得的成就，珍惜来之不易的幸福生活，致力于持续改善中国人民的生活，让人民获得更多实实在在的利好、生活得更为幸福。这是所有国家都拥有的正常发展权利，不应该受到指责和打压。
For China, the most important agenda is to sustain development. The country has always cherished what it has achieved since its reform and opening-up in 1978, as well as the happy livelihoods that came along with it. It is committed to improving ordinary lives, bringing to the people more benefits, and making them feel happier. Any country is entitled to such pursuit, and should be free from accusations or stifling.
中国从未说过要挑战或取代美国的国际地位，而是一直主张应通过相互尊重、和平共处、合作共赢，实现中美双边关系的稳定、健康和可持续发展，这对于美国而言也只有利而无害。
China never said it wants to challenge or replace America’s status in the international arena; on the contrary, China has always upheld principles that the two countries should respect each other, coexist in peace and seek win-win results through collaboration, in order to realize a stable, healthy and sustainable bilateral relationship, which will only bring benefits rather than harm to the U.S.
中美应通过良性竞争实现共赢，作为两个大国共同助力世界的发展进步，而不能恶性竞争，落得两败俱伤。
The two countries should seek win-win results through positive competition, propel the world’s development through joint efforts as two major countries, and avoid harm to both caused by malign competition.
