Policy protection to help private enterprises play a major role as the main force

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes: "Accelerating the construction of a strong trading country." Foreign trade is an important component of the national economy, promoting stable scale and optimized structure of foreign trade, and playing an important supporting role in stabilizing growth and employment, building a new development pattern, and promoting high-quality development. Private enterprises, which have been the main force in China's foreign trade development for four consecutive years, have played an indispensable role.

  The introduction of a series of policies has also provided broader space for the development of private enterprises.

Recently, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Promoting the Stable Scale and Optimal Structure of Foreign Trade", which proposed five policy measures to help foreign trade enterprises, including private enterprises, stabilize orders and expand the market with greater policy efforts. Jiangsu has issued a draft implementation plan for the integration of domestic and foreign trade pilot work, Shanghai has introduced 41 measures to continue promoting high-quality development of foreign trade and foreign investment, Guangdong has introduced several measures to promote stable growth of foreign trade... Various regions have introduced policy measures to support foreign trade development, focusing on core concerns of enterprises, especially insufficient orders, and improving public services to boost confidence for domestic and foreign trade enterprises, including private enterprises Creating favorable conditions for expanding imports and exports.

For a period of time, the central and local governments have introduced a series of policies and measures around the healthy and high-quality development of the private economy, once again providing reassurance to private enterprises. The vitality of the private economy has been further stimulated, which is the fundamental reason for the rapid growth of foreign trade of private enterprises.

Riding the wind and waves, constantly growing in the process of "going out to sea"

Since the optimization and adjustment of epidemic prevention and control measures, many regions have actively organized private enterprises to "go overseas" and expand their markets, achieving fruitful results. At the beginning of this year, the Liaoning Provincial Economic and Trade Delegation organized a 10 day European investment promotion trip. According to customs data, this visit has promoted a total of 28 investment projects in fields such as intelligent manufacturing, new materials, and power transmission and transformation equipment, with an intended investment amount of 2.24 billion yuan and an intended contract amount of 980 million yuan for foreign trade orders.
