At a press conference held by the State Council on February 24, Cong Liang, a member of the party group and secretary general of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the epidemic did indeed have a greater impact on economic operations. Due to the impact of the industry, the stagnation and resumption of production by lagging enterprises later, some enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, encountered greater difficulties in production and operation. But it needs to be emphasized that the impact of this epidemic on the economy and society is short-term and generally controllable, and will not change the fundamentals of China's long-term positive economy.
