Zhou also played an important part in Chinese relationship with the U.S.A. At one time, China and America weren’t happy with each other. To solve this problem, Zhou talked with American diplomats for 12 years. In 1971, Zhou invited some American table tennis players to visit China, which became the beginning of good friendship.
