He said that since last year, the government has taken a series of policy measures to help enterprises reduce the cost of circulation, improve the efficiency of circulation, has played a certain effect. For example, the reduction of bank card rate, a minimum of one year can reduce the fee of 7.5 billion yuan. This year the Ministry of Commerce's focus will be on the domestic circulation links to reduce costs, reduce links, improve efficiency efforts. The next one is to put the national policies have been implemented well, such as highway charges, reduce links and so on, there are many specific details in the implementation of the need to implement; the second is to promote the separation of business and logistics, logistics points to the point, the third is to promote a large number of chain operations. These methods will greatly reduce the cost of circulation.

Market opening

China will further open from five

China's opening-up policy must be "based on Me", which is conducive to the transformation of domestic economic development mode and structural adjustment, with openness to promote development, promote reform and promote innovation. At the same time, openness is mutual, while China is opening up, it also hopes that other countries will expand their openness to China, "open for openness" and achieve mutual benefit.

Chen Deming, the future will also be further open from five aspects. The first is to expand the opening of new fields such as services, and to perfect the open pattern of the region, including inland and along the edge of the opening, etc. to promote the balanced development of foreign trade, adhere to stable exports, expand imports, maintain a balance or basic balance of import and export; Four is to adhere to the introduction of capital and "go out" common development, and pay more attention to "go out "To participate in global economic governance, including the maintenance of the multilateral trading system, the establishment of free trade zones and the creation of a fairer and more open international trading environment."

No timetable for FTA negotiations

Mr Chen said don't worry that the China-Japan-ROK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) negotiations would exceed the standard of the Cross-strait Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA).

In answering questions from Taiwanese reporters, Chen Deming said that it was normal for Taiwanese entrepreneurs and people to be concerned about the FTA negotiations between China and Japan and South Korea. The FTA negotiations between China and Japan and South Korea are discussing some of the overall framework and model of the negotiations, so as to facilitate the negotiation of the following specific issues, but we do not have a specific timetable.

He said mainland leaders have repeatedly expressed the view that the economic size and market conditions of the two sides should be fully considered, while the ECFA will take care of the interests of Taiwanese SMEs and the general public, especially the interests of Taiwanese farmers, "such as our early harvest with Taiwan, The tax cuts on both sides are basically 8.4:1, that is, our tax cuts on Taiwanese products and the tax cuts for our products in Taiwan are basically 8.4:1, and we don't talk about such a big gap with other places. ”

He revealed that the mainland and Taiwan in the follow-up talks on ECFA, the overall is relatively smooth.

Negotiations are under way on the Agreement on Trade in goods and the dispute settlement mechanism, it is estimated that at the end of this year or early next year, if the difficulties are not very large, we can fully talk about it, "so that there is a relatively high level of trade agreement between the two sides, which is very helpful to the development of cross-strait economy." ”

Hot response

PV Dispute Enterprise Consultation

Chen Deming said that China-EU PV products Trade volume, the two sides can take business negotiations to resolve the current trade disputes, to avoid greater damage to both sides.

Chen said that China-EU trade is under the control of World trade rules, but there are problems in the trade disputes over PV products. In the case of the European PV industry, he believes the root cause is a sharp reduction in financial support for photovoltaic applications due to fiscal debt problems.

He revealed that because of European and American policies, China's large number of photovoltaic enterprises are very difficult at present, and some have been in a state of support.

Invest billions of dollars in the United States

Chen Deming introduced that China has imported foreign capital for three consecutive years, with a foreign investment of 77.2 billion U.S. dollars, is the world's fifth largest exporter, and will maintain rapid growth this year. Referring to Chinese companies "going out", he said that Chinese companies "going out" are generally popular around the world. But in the United States, the "approval rate is not too high." He criticized the individual members of the parliaments of some developed countries, and also viewed the "going out" of Chinese enterprises from the perspective of Cold War thinking and ideology.

For example, in the US, where Chinese companies are "going out" relatively hard, they now invest more than 10 billion of dollars. "We probably thought that every 3 dollars we invested in America was approved to be 1 dollars and the approval rate was not too high," he said. But things are improving. ”
