Interview With Li Yuzhong, Executive Vice President And Secretary General Of China Leather Association

P: < strong > reporter: Recently, the China Leather Association announced the announcement of the four major international a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp" > fur auction house < /a >, which will begin to announce the price announcement on its official website from the February 2014 auction, which has aroused widespread concern in the industry.

How did the four auction houses make such a decision? < /strong > < /p >

< p > > a href= "http://www.91se91.com/pioneer/" > Li Yuzhong < /a >: in July last year, Shantou customs in Guangdong cracked a case of fur smuggling worth 7 billion yuan, causing a great stir in the whole world.

The problem of fur smuggling has always been widespread, but the smuggling case is so large that it is the first time that it smuggled.

< /p >

In 2013, the smuggling problem was outstanding and the scope of its spread was very wide. It also had a very big negative impact on the international community. P

The incident also indirectly related to the implementation of the "sunshine tax" work by the customs.

< /p >

< p > because of the particularity of "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "fur industry < /a >, foreign prices have a great impact on domestic prices. In view of these considerations, the customs take the initiative to communicate with foreign auction institutions, hoping that the other party will be able to make the auction information public and pparent so that the fur industry can develop healthily and orderly.

According to the customs requirements, the international auction houses have been the first to disclose the price to the whole society on the official website of Copenhagen auction houses. Other auction houses have also gradually made the price public.

< /p >

Reporter: we know that international auction houses have been selective, small, or even confidential for the price announcement. This is the first time they have decided to open the price to the whole society without reservation on their own official website. Why is this four big auction house so consistent? < /strong > /p > P, strong.

< p > Li Yuzhong: because the opaque price information has a great impact on the market, the pressure of import enterprises is doubled, which is very unfavorable to the development of the industry.

In order to achieve loose trade, information pparency, and maintain the healthy and orderly development of fur industry, after the communication between the customs and the four auction houses, the four auction houses negotiated and decided to announce the price this year, so as to reduce the pressure of the importing enterprises and provide better services for the industry.

For fur industry, this is a very important breakthrough and a turning point in history.

< /p >

< p > < strong > reporter: the rise and fall of international prices have a great impact on the domestic fur market, and can even be regarded as a weathervane of the domestic industry.

What are the advantages of the four auction houses for the development of China's market? What is the promotion of the "China fur industry needs sunshine development" put forward by the association? < /strong > < /p >

< p > Li Yuzhong: the announcement of the price of the four auction houses is of great benefit to domestic farmers.

The price of raw leather is greatly influenced by the international market. The price information is released so that farmers can grasp the price in time and adjust their breeding direction.

< /p >

Before P, fur practitioners in China need to get price information indirectly, and the information obtained is not necessarily accurate or even wrong, which has hindered the development of enterprises.

< /p >

After the price is released, fur practitioners can get official price information directly, grasp the trend of raw materials and price advantages of all kinds of leather products quickly, and enterprises can adjust strategic decisions timely according to the information obtained directly. These price information can also provide references for enterprises to decide the scale of production. P

< /p >

At the same time, the announcement of price information will also help the formation of the domestic price system at P.

< /p >

The announcement price of < p > four auction houses not only enables enterprises to grasp information in time, but also enables customs to grasp price fluctuations in real time, thus providing convenience for "sunshine tax payment" and providing basis for judging whether enterprises are truthfully declaring.

The pparency of information enables the three parties of customs, associations and enterprises to form a positive interaction and jointly promote the sunshine development of China's fur industry.

< /p >

< p > < strong > reporter: will the four big auction houses announce whether the price is sustainable or is it a temporary decision based on the current situation? < /strong > /p >

< p > Li Yuzhong: the opening of the price is a new challenge for the four auction houses. After a period of running in, it will play a great role in promoting information pparency and fair trade.

I think this should be a stable and continuous process, but it does not exclude other factors that may be constrained and influenced by some factors.

< /p >

< p > I personally very much hope that the four auction houses can continue to announce prices in a timely manner and keep this positive practice going on.

< /p >

< p > the announcement of this price will be the beginning of a major change.
