At present, the per capita clothing expenditure of urban and rural areas has increased by more than GDP, while the growth of per capita consumption in the whole country is still lower than that of GDP.

In the ten years from last 90s to 2000, GDP grew very fast, with an average annual growth rate of 10.66%, while our clothing consumption increased by 14.64% over the same period, exceeding the growth rate of GDP. From 2006 to 2010, the average clothing expenditure of urban and rural households increased by 15.22% over the past five years, which has increased by 1.1 times over the past five years.

Du Yuzhou believes that China's domestic demand and international demand are interactive, not isolated and mutually beneficial.

We hope that the two markets will be integrated, and we are not afraid of competition. Only by integrating into globalization can we have the opportunity to improve ourselves with international advanced technology.

Facing the more complex economic and trade environment at home and abroad, China's textile industry needs to make three adjustments, that is, continue to integrate into globalization.
