On the afternoon of May 8, 1956, one of those sunny spring days when a cold wind sneaks out of the Gobi desert, and nobody in Peking, China knows what clothes to wear, visiting New Zealand cultural mission was invited to meet Chinese Premier Chou En-lai at his official residence beside the old palace. Chou began speaking in Chinese, with a young and rather nervous interpreter beside him. He asked them about their visit, and their general impressions of new China. He himself suggested a visit from New Zealand grassland and livestock experts.
