Russia China General Chamber of Commerce long: far from the gray clearance is the right choice

Russia China General Chamber of Commerce President Cai Guiju October 31 in Moscow, said in an interview, engaged in formal operation, is the majority of Russian businessmen in the right choice.　　Only in this way can the business activities more in line with internationalization and modern business model, can be bigger and stronger.　　Cai Guiju said that the Moscow government to remove the Cherkizovsky big market from the local retail market list, the incident for the Russian-Chinese business, "the lesson is very profound", the vast majority of Chinese businessmen have recognized that operating in Russia is illegal, "it means risk and loss." Moscow Cherkizovsky Large market is the most concentrated market in Moscow and even all of Russia. According to the Russian Chamber of Commerce statistics, there are about 60,000 Chinese businessmen operating there.　　Due to historical reasons, there are most of the goods operating from the "gray clearance" channel into Russia, there are false goods, tax evasion and other problems, and therefore have been raided the huge risk. After the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 90, Russia was forced to import cheap consumer goods from foreign markets, including China, to ease the tension in the supply of light industrial products in the domestic market. In order to simplify customs formalities, improve customs efficiency and encourage imports, Russian customs allows the so-called "Customs Clearance company" to import business for shippers and to provide "one-stop" services bundled with transport and customs clearance.　　However, such clearance companies in the customs formalities, generally to evade Russian import management measures and tax irregularities, and not to the Chinese enterprises and businessmen to provide real legal declaration documents, this is known as the "gray customs clearance." At the end of June this year, the Russian authorities suddenly closed the Cherkizovsky market and sealed the goods and personal belongings of the operators in the market, which caused huge economic losses to the Chinese businessmen in the market. In late July, a Chinese delegation composed of commerce, foreign affairs, customs, Zhejiang, Fujian and other provincial departments of commerce, went to Moscow to negotiate with the Russian side on the closure of the big market. After active work and friendly consultation, the two sides reached a broad consensus.　　At present, Chinese businessmen have transferred the goods and personal belongings in the stalls to the big market.　　For China's future transformation of the road, Cai Guiju suggested: Chinese businessmen first to ensure that the operation of the carrier is legitimate, to register in Russia, the formal company, the operation of commodities to formal clearance, do not go "gray clearance"; Cai Guiju also said that Chinese businessmen should pay attention to the quality of goods, the quality of the goods in Russia is a very important factor in the Russian-Chinese business and competitors.　　She said exports of Russian goods, if inferior in quality, will eventually lose the market.　　Cai Guiju also called on Chinese businessmen to pay attention to integrity, establish a good faith system, so that Russian consumers can trust the Chinese businessman, and then trust Chinese goods, China merchants in Russia to long-term development. In addition, Cai Guiju encourages Chinese businessmen to carry forward the spirit of innovation, to change the dependence on the Cherkizovsky of the large market, and to develop a brand strategy for developing the Russian market in the long term. At the same time, to strengthen the training of personnel, we should have both understand the operation and understand the language of talent.
