1. China The Shanghai free trade pilot area is a regional free trade park established by the Chinese government in Shanghai. It belongs to the China free trade area. The trial area was formally approved by the State Council on 22 August, and officially opened on September 29th at 10 a.m. in September 29th.

It is a basic experience of China's reform and opening up to carry out the pilot test of major reform measures. The construction of China (Shanghai) free trade pilot area, exploring new ways and accumulating new experiences for comprehensively deepening reform and opening wider is a positive exploration of partial trial nature, and also a major reform measure with overall significance.

The Shanghai free trade park has been launched for more than 7 months. Taking institutional innovation as the starting point and breakthrough, under the authority of decentralization and decentralization, we made a "negative list" article to activate the market, so as to explore the junctions of making the market play a decisive role in the allocation of resources and play a better role in the government. Institutional system And regulatory mode. Under the new situation of comprehensively deepening reform, such practice and exploration are more necessary, and such institutional innovation is particularly important.

Today, the cost of land, resources and labor has risen rapidly, and the carrying capacity of the environment has been stretched. It is urgent to adjust the structure and upgrade the quality and efficiency of the economy. The FTA has taken the lead in innovating through institutional mechanisms, and strive to explore a new way to develop the economy without relying on preferential treatment, enclosure development, and sacrificing resources and environment.

Where is the new driving force for development? How can we upgrade the quality and efficiency of our enterprises? The answer can only be achieved by comprehensively deepening reform, opening wider to the outside world, breaking through the obstacles of institutional mechanisms, and releasing the endogenous driving force and creativity of the market. Through the exploration and experiment of breaking through, we can liberate and develop social productive forces, emancipate and enhance the vitality of the society. We can get duplicated and popularized system models and development experiences.

It is the most important to establish a good experimental field and speed up the examination and approval authority in the cage of the system. To deepen the reform in an all-round way, we must first change from the government to the reform of the economic and social fields with the government's own reform. By announcing the list of powers, we should further decentralization and standardize the use of power, thus forming the power restriction of "no authorization without authorization", minimizing interference in market and business operations, and better playing the decisive role of the market in the allocation of resources.

It is the key to develop a good experimental field and speed up the demolition of a high threshold that hinder innovation and entrepreneurship. Through the reform of the industrial and commercial registration system, we should further relax the control of access to market subjects, reduce the negative list, reform the administrative examination and approval system, and form a good environment for "law without prohibition"; dismantle the "spring door", open the "glass door", and change the "strict promotion and wide management" for all kinds of market participants to minimize the masses. innovate The shackles of initiative in entrepreneurial creation provide convenience for investment and business operation and release market vitality.

Only by strictly following this principle to engage in the free trade zone can we avoid entering the erroneous zone of taking care of and competing for concessions, rectify the bias of developing development by taking advantage of the opportunity, correct the innovation target of the system, walk out a new road of transformation and upgrading in line with its own reality and regional characteristics, realize the organic unity of top-level design and grass-roots practice, organic unity of local breakthrough and collaborative promotion, and the organic unity of local experience and general promotion, and be bold and steady in organic unity.

A good experimental field is the key to releasing the energizing "catfish effect" by accelerating the opening up. Take the service industry as an example, in recent years, the development speed of China's service industry has accelerated, but the gap is still obvious compared with the developed countries. We should expand the opening of foreign investment in financial, shipping, education, culture, medical, pension, design, accounting, auditing and other service sectors, and introduce advanced international concepts and management models to further stimulate the vitality of modern service industry in China and enhance the development level of service industry.

The system is fundamental, global and stable. It is a more lasting and deeper source of power to promote economic and social development. Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain. Where to set up the free trade zone, when to set up, what to try and how to try, must obey and serve the overall situation of deepening reform and opening wider to the outside world.
