Abstract

On November 8, 2014, the General Secretary Xi announced that China would invest $ 40 billion to set up the "Silk Road Fund", aiming to provide financial support for the infrastructure construction, resource development, industrial cooperation, and other relevant projects of "The Belt and Road" Construction. Language barrier and road blocking is the most outstanding difficulty in the process of "The Belt and Road" Construction, which has hindered its forward development. Qualified interpreters has been always in short supply because the available interpreters in current market can't meet the demand of "The Belt and Road" Construction. So, firstly, this paper will study what kind of interpreters are the most urgent-needed interpreters in "Silk and Road" Construction. Secondly, this paper will study how to transform the traditional interpreters to adapt to the new social need in order to promote the process of "The Belt and Road" Construction.
