Yu Minhong, founder and CEO of the New Oriental Education and Technology Group and a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference's National Committee, estimates that the number of Chinese studying abroad each year will peak at between 700,000 to 800,000.
全國(guó)政協(xié)委員、新東方教育科技集團(tuán)CEO俞敏洪預(yù)測(cè)說，中國(guó)每年出國(guó)留學(xué)的人數(shù)峰值將達(dá)到70萬人到80萬人。

"Considering China's economic development and rising household incomes, the annual number (of Chinese studying abroad) will come to a head within five years. Then it will fluctuate in line with the annual birthrate and the economy," he said.
他說：“考慮到中國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展和家庭收入的增加，中國(guó)每年出國(guó)留學(xué)的學(xué)生人數(shù)將在未來五年達(dá)到高點(diǎn)，之后隨著每年的人口出生率和經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展波動(dòng)。”

According to Education Ministry statistics, 544,500 Chinese studied abroad last year, more than triple the 179,800 that sought out education overseas in 2008.
根據(jù)教育部的數(shù)據(jù)，去年中國(guó)有54萬4500人出國(guó)留學(xué)，是2008年的17萬9800人的三倍多。

He added that more than 80 percent of those who pursue education overseas return to China after completing their studies and contribute to the nation's economy.
他還補(bǔ)充說，超過80%的出國(guó)留學(xué)生在完成學(xué)業(yè)后回到中國(guó)，為經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展貢獻(xiàn)力量。

"From a long-term perspective, it is a positive thing," he said. "China's policies will continue to support overseas study and the Chinese people are aware that having more students abroad can have a positive effect on the country's long-term development."
他說：“從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)看這是好事。中國(guó)的政策將繼續(xù)支持海外留學(xué)，中國(guó)人也意識(shí)到，有更多的學(xué)生海外留學(xué)對(duì)中國(guó)的長(zhǎng)期發(fā)展有利。”
