For many foreign-funded enterprises, the Chinese market is not an "optional" option, but a "necessary" option, and the opportunities in the Chinese market cannot be missed

The vitality of cross-border investment is an important window for observing the trend of economic development. Not long ago, the State Administration for Market Regulation released data showing that in the first quarter of this year, there were 11000 new foreign-invested enterprises established nationwide, a year-on-year increase of 7.6%. According to data released by the Ministry of Commerce, the actual amount of foreign investment used nationwide in the first four months of this year was 499.46 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.2%. The number of newly established foreign-invested enterprises and the actual amount of foreign investment used have shown a stable and positive trend, which strongly proves that opening up China remains a highland for foreign investment.

The continuously rising trend of capital increase confirms the vibrant vitality of the Chinese market from another perspective. Since the beginning of this year, foreign-funded enterprises have continued to invest more in China, and cross-border business activities have accelerated. Many executives from multinational enterprises have come to China for intensive inspections, casting a vote of confidence in the prospects of China's economic development through practical actions. Tesla announced the construction of an energy storage super factory in Lingang, Shanghai; Siemens Medical has invested over 1 billion yuan in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, Guangdong to build a new high-end medical equipment research and manufacturing base; Airbus will build a second production line in Tianjin... Negotiations and exchanges will take place one by one, and project contracts will be signed and implemented, fully demonstrating the strong attraction of the Chinese market to foreign investment.

The global business community has unanimously focused on China because the driving force and momentum of China's economic growth are strong. From the perspective of investment returns, the Chinese market still has great investment value. In the first quarter of this year, the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade conducted research visits to over 600 foreign-funded enterprises. More than 80% of the surveyed foreign-funded enterprises expect their investment profit margins in China to remain stable or increase this year, and over 90% of the surveyed enterprises expect their investment profits in China to remain stable or increase in the next five years. Against the backdrop of sluggish global economic growth, China will undoubtedly continue to be an important investment destination for foreign investment. From the perspective of market opportunities, China is still in a stage of rapid release of total demand, which will provide greater development opportunities for all business entities, including foreign-funded enterprises. On the one hand, new urbanization continues to advance, and the digital and green transformation of production and lifestyle is accelerating. People's aspirations for a better life continue to become a reality, continuously releasing huge demands. On the other hand, as the income level of residents continues to improve, consumption presents characteristics such as diversification, high-end, and service-oriented, and more demand for goods and services will be released. For many foreign-funded enterprises, the Chinese market is not an optional option, but a necessary option, and the opportunities in the Chinese market cannot be missed.

In addition to being optimistic about China's economic recovery potential and development prospects, in recent years, China has continued to expand its opening up to the outside world, promote trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, and greatly inspire the enthusiasm of multinational enterprises to invest in China. From further relaxing market access for foreign investment, to protecting the rights and interests of foreign investment in accordance with the law, and then steadily expanding institutional openness such as rules, regulations, management, and standards, China has implemented a more proactive opening-up strategy, forming a broader, broader, and deeper pattern of opening up to the outside world, continuously providing new opportunities for the world with China's new development, and injecting confidence into the vast number of foreign-funded enterprises. According to a research report by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, 97% of foreign companies surveyed rated the foreign investment policies introduced by the Chinese government since the fourth quarter of last year as "satisfactory" or above; In the first quarter of this year, the satisfaction rate of foreign companies interviewed with indicators such as obtaining financial services, market access, obtaining business premises, and promoting market competition exceeded 80%.

China's market, opportunities for the world. Looking back on the past, China's society has been stable for a long time, with numerous investment opportunities and considerable investment returns, forming a strong attraction for enterprises from various countries. Looking towards the future, China's door to opening up will become larger, the environment will become better, and services will become better and better. It can be said that the Chinese market has both high quality and growth potential. Investing in and rooting in China means choosing a better future. We believe that an open and developing China will attract more foreign enterprises to deeply cultivate the Chinese market, allowing more foreign investors to ride the fast train of China's development.

New comment: Donkey like "morale" limit pulls US debt "bomb" fuse hard to dismantle US | debt | morale

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
