Prime Minister Chris Luxon’s trip to China looks to be successful so far as it reaches its conclusion today. 

Chris Luxon is due to meet President Xi Jinping this afternoon after 871 million dollars of commercial agreements have been signed so far between Kiwi businesses and our Chinese counterparts. 

New Zealand China Council executive director Alistair Crozier told Andrew Dickens that today's meeting between leaders will be more than pleasantries. 

He says there is a lot to discuss, and it will come down to a respectful exchange of views.
