Addressing a symposium to mark Alley's 120th birth anniversary on Friday, Vice President Li Yuanchao said the Chinese people are striving to realize the country's "two centenary goals" and the Chinese dream of great national rejuvenation.
China is willing to make concerted efforts with people around the world, including the people of New Zealand, on building a community of shared future for mankind, he said.
The symposium was held by the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries.
The ICCIC, established in Hong Kong in 1939, has played an important role in helping Chinese resist against Japanese aggression. Beijing Bailie University, founded in 1983, originated from the Bailie school established by Alley in China.
