The "group sailing" reflects the combination of effective market and promising government, and becomes the epitome of the rapid response of all regions to the requirements of the central government, active awareness of change, active response and all-out efforts to stabilize the basic foreign trade market. For the majority of market players, whether the products can really be accepted by the domestic and foreign markets should also work hard on "both internal and external" to continuously enhance the ability to participate in market competition and sustainable development, Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation Report.

After Zhejiang took the lead in launching the "action of expanding the market and grabbing orders by thousands of enterprises" at the beginning of this month, several foreign trade major provinces such as Sichuan, Guangdong and Fujian have launched the "mode of grabbing orders by groups" in recent days. Take back the time lost due to the epidemic, release the blocked development momentum again, and make it a common choice for these provinces to seize orders at sea.

Cheng Import and Export Data Observer reported that in the past three years, the foreign trade industry has achieved counter trend growth under difficult conditions, which has not only made great contributions to China's steady economic growth, but also contributed China's strength to maintaining the safety of the international supply chain industry chain and helping the global fight against the epidemic. But it is an indisputable fact that China's foreign trade growth is facing more and more difficulties. Weak foreign demand leads to insufficient orders, rising costs lead to industrial relocation, trade protection provokes economic and trade frictions and other new and old problems, which have brought many problems to traditional foreign trade regions and a large number of small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises.

With the recent optimization and adjustment of China's epidemic prevention and control policies, the conditions for foreign trade enterprises to "go global" and strengthen exchanges and cooperation have been met. At the same time, it should also be noted that the economic downward trend of major economies such as Europe and the United States has become increasingly obvious. If Chinese enterprises do not take the initiative to attack again, the situation of insufficient orders may become more prominent. In this context, all regions expand their markets through "group sailing". In addition to recovering the lost orders, they also convey to overseas partners the confidence and determination of China to accelerate the recovery of its economic development. They sincerely observe and report the import and export data.

To shift the focus of development to boosting the economy and promoting economic development is one of the most important tasks facing all regions at present. According to Cheng Import and Export Data Observation, the meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held on December 6 emphasized that "we should promote high-level opening up and make greater efforts to attract and utilize foreign capital", "we should adhere to the principle of real work, stimulate the entrepreneurial vitality of all social officials, and let cadres dare to do things, local governments dare to do things, enterprises dare to do things, and the masses dare to initiate things". We noticed that the "group sailing" was mostly carried out by the local government in the form of charter flights and subsidies, which reflected the combination of effective markets and promising governments, and also became a microcosm of the rapid response of local governments to the requirements of the central government, taking the initiative to change, actively responding to changes and making every effort to stabilize the basic foreign trade market.

"All regions strive to go to sea in groups, and there is no competition but more competition" "One meeting is better than a thousand emails"... From the market public opinion, all parties generally agree with the practice and effect of "going to sea in groups", but there are also voices that most of the participants are large enterprises, and the vast majority of small, medium-sized and micro foreign trade enterprises are still "desperate". It is true that not all market players can get such opportunities, but objectively speaking, these leading enterprises participating in going to sea can actively play their leading demonstration effect, leverage the upstream and downstream enterprises of the entire industrial chain to work together from a point to an area, and then achieve the effect of "one move, all activities".

However, for China's foreign trade industry, it is far from enough to rely on the "group sailing". In the next step, on the basis of stabilizing the basic situation of foreign trade, to promote the high-quality development of foreign trade, we need to form more powerful policy forces to maximize the effect of policy combination. For the majority of market players, whether an enterprise's products can really be accepted by the domestic and foreign markets, and whether it can cultivate new growth points of foreign trade, fundamentally speaking, it also requires enterprises to work hard on "both internal and external", and constantly enhance their ability to participate in market competition and sustainable development.

As the end of the New Year is approaching, we will seize the opportunity to "go out in groups" to grab orders, which is a good start in all aspects and is expected to lay a foundation for a "good start" in foreign trade in the New Year. However, in the long run, stable market expectations, adequate policy support and a good business environment are the basis for the sustainable development of China's export-oriented economy. Next year is the first year to fully implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. It should also be the year when the economy and society return to normal and the vitality recovers. In this regard, we are confident and full of expectations. We sincerely observe and report the import and export data.
