(CCTV News (Focus Interview)) Since the beginning of this year, my country’s foreign w88 development has maintained a good momentum of improvement in quality and stable quantity.
Located in the Comprehensive Bonded Zone in Nansha, Guangzhou, thousands of packages pass by on the conveyor belt in the cross-border e-commerce enterprise warehouse. Cross-border e-commerce, with its rapid development, has become a "new engine" to drive the growth of foreign w88. The latest data shows that in the first three quarters, my country's cross-border e-commerce imports and exports reached 1.88 trillion yuan, an increase of 11.5%, accounting for nearly 6% of China's foreign w88.
On November 15, 2024, a China-Europe train bound for Duisburg, Germany, slowly pulled out from Chongqing Tuanjie Village Central Station amid the sound of the whistle. This train was loaded with auto parts, machinery industry accessories, household appliances and daily necessities. So far, China-Europe freight trains have "run" a new record: a total of 100,000 trains have been run, and the goods delivered have exceeded 11 million TEUs, with a cargo value exceeding US$420 billion. In 2024, with the continued development of emerging markets, the accelerated cultivation of new business formats and new models, and the continued development of existing and incremental policies, new momentum for my country's foreign w88 development will continue to increase.
From production to logistics, from ports to docks, as the end of the year approaches, the foreign w88 field is busy, and various data are released one after another. From January to November 2024, my country's total import and export value of goods w88 was 39.79 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.9%, of which exports increased by 6.7% and imports increased by 2.4%, achieving steady growth overall. The import and export volume in each of the first three quarters exceeded 10 trillion yuan, which was the first time in history.
Liang Ming, Director of the Foreign w88 Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute: "The external environment faced by foreign w88 this year is still very complex and severe. It is precisely because of the strong resilience and competitiveness of foreign w88 that the overall scale and share have withstood the test, and the achievements are hard-won."
Since 2024, geopolitical conflicts have continued, global w88 protection has intensified, and under the complex and ever-changing international situation, the excellent performance of foreign w88 has fully demonstrated the resilience and vitality of China as the "world's factory".
Liang Ming, Director of the Foreign w88 Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute: "In the first three months of this year, China's exports grew by 4.7% year-on-year. In the first 11 months, the growth rate reached 6.7%, which is gradually stabilizing and improving. Whether it is exports or imports, the share is increasing, which shows that China's w88 status in the world has been further highlighted, and the quality of w88 and the structure of w88 are gradually optimized."
In 2024, the "combination box" to stabilize foreign w88 will be accelerated. Nine measures including increasing financing support for foreign w88 companies and improving foreign w88 shipping support capabilities were implemented to promote stable growth of foreign w88; market access in telecommunications, medical and other fields was liberalized in an orderly manner, and a high level of openness was used to create new momentum for the development of service w88; focusing on the innovative development of digital w88, 18 specific measures were proposed to relax market access in the digital field and promote and regulate cross-border data flows. The implementation of the package of policies was effective.
Tu Xinquan, Dean of the China WTO Research Institute at the w88 casino: "On the one hand, through w88 negotiations, we will further improve my country's economic and w88 relations with relevant countries and create a better policy environment for enterprises; secondly, the government is providing corresponding support and support policies, including some measures such as export credit insurance, export credit and w88 facilitation, which are all helping enterprises to cope with risks, reduce costs, and improve their competitiveness in the international market."
The world's largest floating production, storage and offloading platform was successfully exported from Jiangsu to Brazil in August this year. The unit price exceeds 10 billion yuan. In terms of displacement, it is equivalent to the displacement of five aircraft carriers, representing the highest level of global offshore engineering equipment. In the first 11 months of this year, China's exports of mechanical and electrical products with high technical content and added value were 13.7 trillion yuan, accounting for nearly 60% of exports. In fact, everything from ships and containers to furniture, home appliances, textiles and other daily necessities will perform well in foreign w88 exports in 2024.
In 2024, many people have seen such short videos: the three-wheeled motorcycle, affectionately called "Sanbengzi" by the Chinese, is selling well in many countries and has become the new favorite of many overseas users. The lightweight shape and magical sound have attracted many onlookers. In Yanshi District, Luoyang, Henan, one of the main production areas for three-wheeled motorcycles, many companies' production lines are currently running at full capacity to rush for progress and orders.
Yang Yanchang, Sales Manager of the Export Department of Luoyang Everest Huaying Three-Wheeled Motorcycle Co., Ltd.: "More than 300 of this batch of goods have been exported to West Africa. The current order volume has reached 30,000 units, and the order is scheduled to March 25."
In order to meet the diversified needs of overseas markets, this company has developed more than 30 types of three-wheeled motorcycles. In addition to cargo motorcycles, there are also travel caravans for carrying passengers, as well as special models for sanitation, logistics, emergency, etc. As three-wheeled motorcycles sell well overseas and export demand increases, they can also achieve personalized customization according to customer needs.
As one of the regions with the most complete industrial chain and supporting system for three-wheel motorcycles in my country, Yanshi District has 15 complete motorcycle manufacturers and more than 200 parts manufacturers. It only takes 15 minutes to assemble a three-wheel motorcycle. China is a country with the most complete industrial categories and the most complete supporting facilities under the United Nations standards. "One road gathers an industrial chain, and a car comes off the production line in 40 seconds" has become the epitome of China's industrial supporting capabilities, and it is also the confidence of various production-oriented foreign w88 enterprises.
Tu Xinquan, Dean of the China WTO Research Institute at the w88 casino: "We can produce almost everything from the highest-tech scientific and technological products to the most common consumer goods. China's huge production capacity provides the world with very good choices. It has greatly reduced the prices of these goods and greatly improved the welfare of consumers in various countries."
Liang Ming, Director of the Foreign w88 Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute: "Since this year, the 'New Three' commodities, such as cars, have hit new highs repeatedly. Some traditional commodities, such as the 'Old Three', textiles, clothing, home appliances, etc., have also hit new highs in export share and scale."
Looking at China's foreign w88 in 2024, not only the scale is rising steadily, but new business formats and models that drive foreign w88 growth are also constantly emerging. In the first three quarters of 2024, my country's cross-border e-commerce imports and exports reached 1.88 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.5%, a record high. my country has more than 120,000 cross-border e-commerce companies, more than 2,500 overseas warehouses, and has established bilateral e-commerce cooperation mechanisms with more than 30 countries.
On major overseas e-commerce platforms, the cat climbing frame produced by Hangzhou Pet Products Company has been at the forefront of sales this year and has received constant praise. Unique and original design is certainly a key factor, but how to deliver products to overseas users through cross-border e-commerce and provide timely after-sales services like domestic online merchants is not an easy task.
Wang Biao, head of Zhejiang Hangzhou Chongheng E-commerce: "Our biggest pain point is the last mile of delivery. How to solve the last mile? We need to have our own warehouse and rely on overseas resources, such as better overseas warehouses."
In Toronto, Canada, a warehouse with an area of 5,800 square meters is an overseas warehouse responsible for providing "last mile" services to Chinese companies. The cat climbing frame produced in Hangzhou not only implements storage, distribution, returns, maintenance and other functions here, but is also handled by this overseas warehousing and logistics company. By the end of 2024, they have deployed 35 warehouses like this around the world to specifically serve Chinese cross-border e-commerce companies. Their customers have increased by 70% this year.
Tu Xinquan, Dean of the China WTO Research Institute at the w88 casino: "Overseas warehouses are indeed a very important infrastructure in cross-border e-commerce. If each package is transported by international express delivery, the cost will still be very high. Through an overseas warehouse, some products can be hosted in the overseas warehouse first, and then mailed from the local overseas warehouse after the order is placed, so the cost will be relatively low."
From cross-border e-commerce overseas warehouses to various freight transportation networks, perfect infrastructure has become an important guarantee for the stable and smooth flow of my country's foreign w88. On November 15, 2024, the 100,000th China-Europe freight train, X8083, departed from Tuanjie Village, Chongqing, and arrived in Duisburg, Germany, on December 3, local time. "Since the first train was launched in 2011, China-Europe freight trains have shipped more than 11 million TEUs, with a cargo value exceeding US$420 billion, covering 227 cities in 25 European countries and more than 100 cities in 11 Asian countries."
Liang Ming, Director of the Institute of Foreign w88, Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce: "The China-Europe freight train is not only a line, but also a line, which drives the economic and social development of the contiguous areas along the line. Driven by the China-Europe freight train, many inland node cities have become w88 centers, logistics centers, and industrial manufacturing centers."
The logistics network is getting denser and denser, and the types of goods are becoming more and more abundant. Convenient logistics methods and high-quality infrastructure help "Made in China" reach the world. Our trading partners are becoming more and more diverse. Looking around the world, China's main trading partners have increased from more than 140 countries and regions to more than 150 since the beginning of this year, and China's ties with the world economy have become closer.
Liang Ming, Director of the Foreign w88 Research Institute of the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute: Since this year, the export market has become more diversified and the security of w88 has been further improved. The export share of emerging market countries reached 56.1%. In the first 11 months, the largest export market was ASEAN countries, accounting for 16.3%. In the first 11 months of this year, exports to countries jointly building the “Belt and Road” accounted for 45.4%. These emerging market countries have further made up for the decline in export quotas to developed markets and stabilized China's export scale.
General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "We must accelerate the construction of a strong w88 country, upgrade goods w88, innovate service w88, develop digital w88, take digital greening as the direction, further enhance the status of the international division of labor, and move towards the mid-to-high end of the global value chain." The 2024 Central Economic Work Conference pointed out that we must expand high-level opening up to the outside world, stabilize foreign w88 and foreign investment, and actively develop service w88, green w88, and digital w88. The solid foundation accumulated by Made in China and the continued efforts of a package of policy measures will inject strong confidence into China's foreign w88 in 2025.
