Representatives from over 160 financial institutions gathered in Changchun to discuss the topic and give their advice.

Over the past few days, the northeastern province has secured a total of 141 projects with 17 financial institutions and nearly 200 billion yuan ($28.83 billion) of investment.

The Bank of China, for example, has signed an agreement with Jilin province to provide 30 billion yuan ($ 4.3 billion) to support its ice-snow industry.

"We will work with Jilin to establish a communication and cooperation platform to provide further strength to the future development of the industry," said Liu Liange, president of the Bank of China.
