Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao started a meeting with US Vice President Dick Cheney Wednesday, and the meeting is still going on at press time.

Wen recalled his visit to the United States four months ago, calling it a fruitful visit.

He said Cheney will be able to witness China's development in China's biggest business hub Shanghai as Cheney is scheduled to visit the city during this China tour.

Cheney, who arrived in Beijing Tuesday afternoon on a three-day working visit to China as guest of Chinese Vice President Zeng Qinghong, said he still remembers Wen's visit.

He said his first visit to China was in 1975 and it will be his first visit to Shanghai during this China tour, noting that China has taken on a new look.
