The Chief Minister and his delegation have spoken to the media in Beijing at the start of a week-long visit to China.
Allan Bell has joined private sector representatives for a week of presentations and meetings.
The idea, says Mr Bell, is to strengthen Manx-Sino relations and generate new business opportunities.
Speaking from the Chinese capital, he fired a broadside at those who have criticised the trip on cost grounds:

Lone cyclist involved in Peel Road collision
Government 'unable' to comment on recount outcome
Manx Care forecasting £19.2million overspend
Manx students believe social media ban 'will have pros and cons'
