In this regard, the president of the Institute of international economics of the University of foreign trade and economic analysis said that the key tasks of these eight areas are institutional reform and innovation. They involve both trade in goods and trade in services. They involve both exports and imports. They involve stabilizing traditional product trade and cultivating new growth points for foreign trade.

These specific measures will play a positive role in reducing the cost of foreign trade, improving the efficiency of foreign trade operation and reducing the cost of circulation.

Regarding the expansion of cross border e-commerce experiments and supporting enterprises to build "overseas warehouses" of a number of export products, Shen Danyang said that "overseas warehouse" is an innovative business mode.

The Ministry of Commerce will take effective measures to support the establishment of "overseas warehouses" by powerful enterprises, and further create new bright points in foreign trade development and new kinetic energy for economic growth.

Shen Danyang said that to promote cross-border e-commerce development and set up a number of "overseas warehouses", the Ministry of Commerce will implement in five ways: first, further improve customs clearance efficiency; two, reduce logistics costs; three, shorten marketing links; four, improve distribution efficiency; five, help enterprises better integrate into the offshore circulation system.

"This is the next step we should focus on."

Shen Danyang said.

In this year's government work report, we need to "improve utilization".

"China should always become an attractive foreign investment hot spot."

In response, Shen Danyang said that despite new challenges, we are still confident.

Confidence comes not only from the existing foundation but also from the new action.

"The Ministry of Commerce will further promote the relaxation of investment access, deepen the reform of foreign capital management system, optimize the layout of foreign investment, improve the level of construction of free trade pilot zones, innovate the institutional mechanism of state-level economic and technological development zones, and improve the investment environment in accordance with international high standards."

Shen Danyang said that through the six measures, we should do a good job in utilizing foreign capital this year.

According to the introduction, some of the specific measures include: continue to promote foreign investment access restrictions in financial, educational, cultural and other service sectors; further liberalize the general manufacturing industry; revise the catalogue of foreign investment advantages in the central and western regions, guide foreign investment to the central and western regions; speed up the construction of "three mutual" customs clearance along the inland coastal areas; support the border area.

Cross border economic cooperation zones and other key areas such as development and opening up.

However, with the rising cost of domestic production factors, China's traditional advantages of attracting foreign capital are being gradually weakened. At the same time, the developed countries have implemented the strategy of "re industrialization", and the developing countries have increased the preferential treatment of attracting foreign investment. The new situation has also made China's foreign capital utilization face new challenges.

Sang Bai Chun believes that the new six initiatives will not only play a role in stabilizing the traditional manufacturing industry to attract foreign investment, but also promote the use of foreign capital structure to achieve industrial upgrading.

Among them, the reform of foreign investment management system is an important starting point. It not only complies with the requirements of economic globalization and the change of international investment rules, but also serves as a breakthrough in upgrading the structure and quality of foreign investment.
