Economic Daily Jin Guanping: China has the ability and willingness to enter the world market

From the Davos Forum to the press conference of the State Council Information Office, China is clearly sending a signal to the world that, in the current difficult global economic recovery and the surging undercurrent of trade protectionism, China is not only willing to be the world's factory, but also has the ability and willingness to become the world market.

China has the ability to enter the global market, and its confidence comes from the size and vitality of its super large market.

China has a population of over 1.4 billion and a middle-income group of over 400 million, with a per capita GDP exceeding 13000 US dollars. The large population base combined with steadily increasing income levels has given rise to diverse and vigorous consumer demand, forming a unique global market depth. Just for eating, Chinese people consume 700000 tons of grain, 98000 tons of oil, 1.92 million tons of vegetables, and 230000 tons of meat every day. China shares its vast domestic demand market, bringing tangible orders and business to global enterprises. By 2025, China will import nearly 1.5 trillion yuan worth of agricultural products, and the number of overseas enterprises registered with customs for agricultural and food products will increase by 83000, with a cumulative total of over 500000.

The deepening of reforms has unlimited market potential. Publish a new version of the negative list for market access, implement the Law on the Promotion of Private Economy, and make efforts to comprehensively rectify the "involution" competition from the aspects of optimizing industrial layout and strengthening local investment constraints. Deepen the construction of a unified national market; Adhering to the close integration of benefiting people's livelihoods and promoting consumption, investing in goods and investing in people, and transforming investment increment into livelihood increment and economic increment... With the deepening of various reform deployments, the growth potential of the Chinese market is unlimited, and the opportunities it holds are countless.

China's willingness to enter the global market is demonstrated by its unwavering openness and pragmatic measures.

China regards opening up to the outside world as a fundamental national policy, which not only stems from a profound grasp of the historical trend of economic globalization, but also reflects its active practice of the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind. In recent years, in the face of the rise of anti globalization sentiment, China has not only not closed its doors and retreated, but has also held high the banner of open cooperation with a more firm attitude, actively maintaining the multilateral trading system with the World Trade Organization as its core. The Proposal of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Formulating the 15th Five Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development specifically deploys opening up to the outside world, and clearly proposes to "expand high-level opening up to the outside world and create a new situation of cooperation and win-win".

In recent years, China has transformed its commitment to openness into tangible global benefits through a series of institutional arrangements and landmark platforms, and the China International Import Expo is a model of this. As the world's first national level exhibition with an import theme, the CIIE not only opens up a "green channel" for enterprises from various countries to access a market with a population of over 1.4 billion, but also serves as a bridge for efficient connection between global goods, technology, services and Chinese demand. In addition, practical measures such as the expansion of the pilot free trade zone, the construction of the cross-border e-commerce comprehensive pilot zone, and the deepening of economic and trade cooperation along the "the Belt and Road" also continue to release dividends in the Chinese market. Implement 100% tariff free products for the least developed countries that have established diplomatic relations, and increase imports from these countries by 9% by 2025. These proactive actions indicate that China is not only a beneficiary of economic globalization, but also an active contributor and leader, truly fulfilling the solemn commitment of "driving common prosperity among trading partners through its own development".

Ability and willingness complement each other, showcasing China's unlimited potential as a global market. The super large scale market provides stable demand for the world, and sustained openness transforms this demand into opportunities for the development of various countries. In today's uncertain global economy, China does not engage in a closed "small cycle", but instead acts as a stabilizer of the world economy and a booster of global trade with the confidence of "ability" and the willingness to take on responsibilities. China has proven through its own practice that an open market is dynamic and shared opportunities are valuable. In the future, China will expand its opening-up with greater efforts, making the super large market a broad stage for the common development of countries around the world.
