Recently, the General Office of the State Council promulgated the “Several Opinions of the General Office of the State Council on Supporting the Steady Growth of Foreign Trade” (hereinafter referred to as “Opinions”), and the “Opinions” consisted of 16 articles. It was the second issued by the State Council in the past two years to stabilize foreign trade. "Country 16".

“Country 16” proposed that enterprises should be encouraged to invest in greenfield investment, mergers and acquisitions, etc., and promote the transfer of some industries overseas. In this regard, some analysts pointed out that under the current background of economic growth, the "national 16 articles" can be regarded as part of the steady growth measures. After all, from the previous four months, foreign trade growth is facing more It is more difficult. To achieve the annual goal requires policy encouragement and support.

Huang Zhilong, an associate researcher at the China International Economic Exchange Center, pointed out that there are mainly the following types of industries suitable for investment and transfer abroad:

First, industries with ever-increasing domestic production costs and declining international competitiveness, such as the textile and apparel industry, have begun to shift overseas in previous years.

Second, the domestic industry with excess capacity, such as non-ferrous metals, steel and so on. Third, it has international competitiveness, and it is a high-tech, high-end equipment manufacturing industry that is obviously driving the domestic industrial chain, such as high-speed railways and engineering buildings. Through the investment and transfer of these industries, on the one hand, it can digest domestic excess production capacity. On the other hand, it can also stimulate the exports of other industries in the industry chain, and it can also strengthen the internationalization process in the long run.

Some analysts have pointed out that the industries that can be transferred overseas are mainly concentrated in industries where domestic production capacity is relatively high, such as non-ferrous metals, steel, and other industries. There are three main benefits: First, China's large number of heavy industrial raw materials are dependent on imports, the transfer of steel and nonferrous metals industries to raw material production areas, can save transportation costs; Second, heavy industry pollution and discharge pressure is greater, can be reduced abroad to transfer The pressure of energy consumption; Third, heavy industry is a capital-intensive industry, and transfer to foreign countries will not cause pressure on domestic employment.
