Top 10 topics

I. Economic growth target

As the world's second largest economy, China's GDP growth has always been a hot topic of the two sessions. In 2016, China’s GDP growth rate was 6.7%, which was the lowest level in the past 20 years, but it was still at a high level compared with other major economies. What kind of economic development goals will China formulate in 2017? People are watching.


II. "One Belt, One Road" Strategy and International Cooperation

China will host the 1st International Collaboration Summit in Beijing in May this year. The "Belt and Road" strategy has become a hot topic of concern to all parties. According to the data from the Ministry of Commerce, in 2016, China’s total imports and exports along the “Belt and Road” countries totaled 6.3 trillion yuan, up 0.6%. Chinese enterprises have already built 56 economic and trade cooperation zones in more than 20 countries along the “One Belt and One Road”, with a total investment of more than 18.5 billion U.S. dollars, creating nearly 1.1 billion U.S. dollars in taxes and 180,000 jobs for the host country. In the future, the great potential of the “One Belt and One Road” will be further released, and the in-depth development of international capacity cooperation, trade contacts and investment cooperation is worth looking forward to.

Xiao Yaqing, director of the State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, publicly stated that the reform of state-owned enterprises in 2017 has entered a critical stage of climbing over the ridge and rolling rock uphill, and it is necessary to reform mixed supply and supply side. Key areas and key links have made new progress and breakthroughs as soon as possible. At the same time, the reform of the mixed ownership system of local state-owned enterprises and central enterprises is accelerating. To date, nearly 20 provinces and municipalities have issued guidance documents to promote mixed reform.


Fourth, the real economy

"lower the cost" As China's economic development has entered the new normal, and foreign manufacturing has returned, lowering the cost of the real economy and promoting the transformation and upgrading of enterprises have become an inevitable requirement for China’s economy to improve its quality and efficiency and enhance its core competitiveness. At present, the tax burden of enterprises in our country is still too heavy, the current situation of high overall operating costs has not been fundamentally changed, and problems such as the difficulty of financing financing have still existed. How to further speed up the tax reform, standardize administrative charges, effectively reduce the cost of corporate financing, employment, taxes and fees, and allow entities to move forward lightly, and it is expected that the two sessions will become hot topics this year.


Five, smart manufacturing

"Intelligent Manufacturing", as an important breakthrough in revitalizing the real economy and accelerating industrial transformation and upgrading, has become a key word for the local two sessions this year and is expected to become a major hot spot for the two sessions. Miao Miao, minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, has repeatedly stated that this year will be a crucial year for the full implementation of the "Made in China 2025 Strategy." The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other departments will issue a series of measures to promote the continued implementation of the strategy and the overall transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry. For example, the "China Made 2025" Pilot Demonstration City plans to enter 20-30 cities this year.


VI. Sharing Economy

At the end of 2016, the popularity of shared bicycles rekindled public concerns about the sharing economy back into the field of travel. With the arrival of various capitals in the war, the last mile of travel The scramble has also become another major attraction after the special car and express train. At the same time, another time-share leasing model with the same imaginative space is accelerating.

The changes triggered by the sharing economy in the field of travel may be a good reference. When we think that the war is over, it is only the beginning of another change. With the background of sharing the economy as a new engine for service development, how can we better promote the development of the industry?

From the communique of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, the "Development and Sharing Economy" was clearly proposed. Last year, the government work report was formally written and the sharing of the economy became a national strategy. In the face of emerging new issues and new situations, how will the sharing economy in 2017 develop?


7. Autopilot

In recent years, Google, Tesla, Apple, BMW and other technology companies have competed with traditional car manufacturers for self-driving cars. The traffic field is ushering in a great change. At present, China’s legislative policies on autopilot are lagging behind. In the future, a multi-sectoral collaborative management mechanism should be established to promote relevant legislation and revision work, improve all supporting measures, and firmly grasp the development opportunities of autopilot.


Platform Age

We are in the era of platforms. The platform is gradually becoming a new business infrastructure and resource allocation. With the deepening of the "Internet Plus," the platform model also plays a role in various industries, life, and public areas. The platform may have been created by the Internet company, or it may have grown from the industry. The platform in the multilateral market has become an Internet platform driven by technology. It is a linker, matchmaker, and market designer, and promotes large-scale social collaboration to create a win-win ecosystem.


Nine, Smart City

With the continuous development of human society, the future cities will carry more and more people. At present, China is in a period of accelerating urbanization. The problem of urban diseases in some areas is increasingly serious. In order to solve the problems of urban development and realize sustainable development of cities, the construction of smart cities has become an irreversible historical trend of urban development in the world today.


X. Venture, innovation

Since the call for "mass entrepreneurship and innovation," the entrepreneurial heat wave has continued to heat up. In order to fully promote the prosperity and development of innovation activities, the central and local governments have successively introduced a series of preferential policies and assistance programs for entrepreneurship, which has created a favorable political environment for the prosperity and development of the company. There is no doubt that China is striving to become a promoter in the acceleration of the new round of scientific and technological revolution. In 2017, the number of entrepreneurs and innovative companies will continue to increase. With the promotion of the capital market and the guidance of policies, a new pattern of Internet entrepreneurship will emerge.
