Reference Știri reported on April 17 that the Canton Fair, known as "China's No. On the same day, the third China International Consumer Goods Fair (Consumer Fair) closed in Hainan. The sixth China International Import Expo (CIIE) will open in the second half of the year. Analysts pointed out that the national "exhibition matrix" unites the world with a strong magnetic field, and releases positive signals for China to boost consumer confidence and promote high-level opening up.
According to reports, China's top leaders made it clear at last month's National People's Congress that "we still have to eat reform and take an open path." According to the report, this means that China will adhere to a higher level of opening up to the outside world on a larger scale, in a wider field and at a deeper level. In the meetings between Chinese leaders and foreign dignitaries who recently visited China, the same signal was conveyed: China will adhere to reform and opening up, more actively integrate high-standard international economic and trade rules, and firmly promote high-level opening up.
The report notes that in recent weeks, Chinese Premier Li Qiang has said that China needs to "find ways" to stabilize exports to developed economies and develop markets in developing countries and regional markets such as ASEAN. He said he would win over foreign investors, support private companies, and said China would remain open to foreign investment and trade.
The report also said that the Chinese government is vigorously promoting investment, and the enthusiasm for holding large-scale trade fairs is also increasing. The Canton Fair is undoubtedly China's most recognizable commodity fair in the world with the widest influence, and it is also a bright business card that showcases Guangdong and China's opening up to the outside world.
Suprafața totală de expoziție a acestui târg din Canton este de aproape 1.5 milioane de metri pătrați, echivalentul a peste 200 de terenuri de fotbal. În următoarele trei săptămâni, aproximativ 35.000 de expozanți își vor umple standurile cu frigidere, cutii de viteze, jachete și o mare varietate de alte produse. Mii de companii din peste 200 de țări și regiuni vor trimite reprezentanți pentru a participa la expoziție.
Târgul de la Canton are loc de două ori pe an, iar cele șase ediții organizate între 2017 și 2019 au adus fiecare comenzi de aproximativ 30 de miliarde de dolari, în ciuda tarifelor comerciale americane pentru mărfurile chinezești în acea perioadă. Noua epidemie a coroanei a forțat anularea târgurilor recente din Canton, le-a mutat online sau le-a ținut fără oameni de afaceri din străinătate.
Chris Sillitoe este proprietarul unei afaceri de aprovizionare cu instrumente și hardware în Marea Britanie. El a spus că este nerăbdător să participe din nou la Târgul Canton.
Sillitto said: "We are all optimistic and excited about being able to come to the Canton Fair. It has been a long time since (the last time we participated in the exhibition)."
Rolul Târgului din Canton a evoluat de-a lungul anilor. Astăzi, exportatorii acordă mai puțină atenție numărului real de tranzacții și, în schimb, privesc Târgul de la Canton ca pe o platformă pentru construirea de conexiuni și creșterea gradului de conștientizare.
Qin Yurong, who exports TV antennas to Southeast Asia, said business grew more than 10% year-on-year in the first quarter of this year. "With the borders reopening, it's definitely going to be better than it's been for the past three years," she said.
