With the recovery of international travel and the intensification of foreign trade pressure, the Chinese government organizations "revenge on sea" to grab orders and investments, marking the focus of local work from the prevention of epidemic prevention to the stable economy.
Comprehensive Chinese media reports, since September this year, more than 300 economic and trade troupes in China have organized more than 300 economic and trade troupes to participate in and inspected, many of which were led by local government charter -in -laws.Europe and Southeast Asia are the two major destinations of Chinese business groups.
The 160 -person business group in Guangdong Province participated in the Singapore Asia -Pacific Beauty Exhibition
The person in charge of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Commerce introduced to the United Morning Post that in late September, the local company organized enterprises to go to the Frankfurt Lighting Exhibition in Germany for the first time to obtain "exceeding the expected effect".Since then, he organized three chartered planes to participate in the exhibition and went to Germany, Malaysia, Singapore and the UAE.
In addition, Shenzhen, Dongguan and other cities have also organized enterprises to go to sea to open up the market.It is understood that Dongguan plans to bring companies to participate in nearly 50 overseas exhibitions in the first half of next year.
During the Singapore Asia -Pacific Beauty Show in November, Guangdong Province sent as many as 160 business groups to participate in the exhibition.69 new Guangdong foreign trade companies cover the beauty industry manufacturers, trading companies and brand companies, staying in Singapore for seven days.During this period, many companies harvested their intention orders and came into contact with potential customers from Southeast Asia and Europe.
The chairman of Biyu Cosmetics Accessories (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. Wu Jiang is one of the businessmen who go to Singapore to participate in the exhibition.He told this newspaper that during the exhibition, the company received more than 80 buyers and met many buyers from Southeast Asia.This allows the company to understand customer needs more intuitive, and also have the opportunity to discuss how the product improves face to face. "This is a problem that is difficult to solve the online exhibition and telephone communication."
Wujiang admits that before the epidemic, the company has to participate in four foreign exhibitions a year."Over the past three years, all foreign exhibitions have stopped, which has a great impact on our foreign trade enterprises. Especially this year's international economic situation is not very good, overseas demand has weakened, and government -enterprise joints are also required."
After gaining a trip to Singapore, Wujiang plans to go to Italy, the United States, Japan, and Hong Kong next year to continue to contact new and old customers.P>
In addition to Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu, the two coastal overseas trade provinces also launched the "Foreign Trade Defense War".Zhejiang Province launched the "Thousands of Tour and Wanluo Market Grab Order" this month. The first stop went to France and Germany; Suzhou, Jiangsu, also organized more than 200 business groups to conduct investment promotion activities in France and Germany.Some inland provinces followed closely. Sichuan organized a 40 -person foreign trade group to Europe this month. The Hunan Provincial Department of Commerce went to Singapore to visit many chambers of commerce and enterprises in the same period.
A weak order for foreign trade in the coastal overseas provinces of China
Behind the successive listing of seas from all over the country is the increasing downward winds of China's foreign trade industry.In November of this year, China's exports decreased sharply from 0.3 % in October to 8.7 %, the largest since February 2020; the decline in imports also expanded from 0.7 % in October to 10.6 %, the largest since May 2020, 2020Essence
The coastal provinces of coastal overseas first felt the impact of the epidemic and weakening of foreign demand.Guangdong and Jiangsu, the two Economic provinces in the first three quarters of GDP (GDP) in the first three quarters, only increased by 2.3 %, a national average of rare than 3 %.Ningbo Daily reported this month that local foreign trade companies have fallen into atrophy in hand and the new signing index for six consecutive weeks, and the exports of the United States have fallen by more than 10 % for three consecutive months.
Chen Bo, dean of the Wuhan Optics Valley Free Trade Research Institute, pointed out that as external demand weakened, foreign trade orders are expected to continue to decrease, and the competition for orders is even more important; this is not only to compete with international competitors,It is also comparable to other regions in China, which has prompted various foreign trade provinces to accelerate the pace of going abroad.
Chen Bo also emphasized that compared with other industries such as services and retail, the impact of foreign trade's epidemic situation is the lowest.All places have gone to sea, but they are actually the normal state of "fighting the economy" before the epidemic."In the early days of opening, in addition to media propaganda, you still need to bring a group to abroad in order to make overseas investors feel that the country with the longest global sealing time has returned to normal."
Zhang Yu, chief macro analyst of Huading Securities, wrote an analysis that China ’s epidemic prevention policy has continued to optimize since November, providing objective conditions for enterprises to“ go global ”. Therefore, it has been from mid -November.After the official relaxation of epidemic prevention policies in early December, seven prefecture -level cities and two provinces have led a team to sea.
Faced with the continuous increase in economic backwind, the Politburo meeting of the Communist Party of China on December 6 proposed that "promoting high -level opening to the outside world, attracting and using foreign investment greater efforts", and "let cadres dare to do, dare to break through, enterprises, enterprises, enterprises, enterprisesDare to do it, the masses dare to create. "Zhang Yu believes that the meeting released a strong signal of the economy and stable growth to the local government, and promoted the focus of local governments to shift their work from the epidemic prevention to the economy.
Although the "foreign trade defense war" has been strengthened in various places, Chen Bo expects that the improvement of China's import and export supply side will be offset by negative impact on the demand side.With the US government's shots to curb inflation, the Western economy headed by the United States will gradually weaken, and demand has shrunk. Next year, China's import and export situation will not be optimistic next year.
But on the other hand, investment and cooperation plans frozen due to rigorous epidemic prevention are expected to restart with the unblocking.Chen Bo said: "Although the recent sharp rise in the epidemic has caused an impact on the economy, the speed and enthusiasm of foreign capital entering China will not rise. Investors should actively lay out China next year and promote the significant recovery of foreign investment."
