Zhang Yuejiao studied in France and the United States, and is familiar with English and French. She also has extremely rich practical experience. As early as the 1990s, the United States had a brush with China on the issue of intellectual property rights, and even launched a "30 1 special investigation" against China. Finally, Zhang Yuexiao and then Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Wu Yi "played tricks" with the United States to solve this problem.
Zhang Yuejiao has worked in Geneva for more than 8 years and is used to being busy all day. She told the Legal Daily reporter that she really put 100% of her energy into the matter of the appeal judge. "All weekends are spent in the office." Just as her colleagues around her commented on her: hard work and dedication.
