  In 2022, China has become one of the most dynamic markets for economic growth in the post-epidemic era, with a huge consumption volume.

  Professor Wang Chunlei, Dean of the School of Convention, Exhibition and Tourism, Shanghai University of International Business and Economics, said that the Canton Fair mainly focuses on the export of goods, the CIIE focuses on the import of goods and some services, the Service Trade Fair focuses on the expansion of the service industry, and the Consumer Expo focuses on international consumer products. The four major exhibitions complement each other, creating a new pattern of China's opening to the outside world.

  The holding of the four major exhibitions is conducive to better promoting the world's largest emerging consumer market to connect with the international market, and thus better promote the construction of a domestic and international dual cycle.

"To realize the cycle, foreign buyers must come in. The four major exhibitions cover various fields of economy and trade, allowing more countries and multinational companies to embrace the Chinese market." Wang Chunlei said.

  Tang Yunyi, deputy director of the Institute of Applied Economics, Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that from the perspective of the global economy, the current demand side is generally insufficient, and the most important factor for economic recovery and development is the market. Development, the Chinese market is not only large, but also constantly upgrading, the consumption structure is upgrading, and the demand for high-end consumption is increasing, which is a more attractive scarce resource."

The consumption potential of China's large market has been released, which is a good thing for the world.

Taking the exhibition as a window, companies from all over the world can get close contact with Chinese consumers, better understand the Chinese market, and grasp the pulse of the Chinese market.

At the same time, with the further expansion of people's yearning and demand for high-quality life, people can also experience first-class products and services from around the world at their doorstep.

  In fact, new ideas, new ideas, and new technologies are the constant themes that run through the four exhibitions.

Every year, a large number of global new technologies and new products are unveiled at the CIIE, which enriches the choices of consumers.

  High-quality imported commodities promote domestic enterprises to continuously improve their competitiveness, and promote the "same frequency synchronization" of technology at home and abroad by strengthening international cooperation.

The four major exhibitions have set up a bridge for all parties to approach China, and connected with this is a broader space for cooperation between China and the world.

  "The layout of the four major exhibitions is very good, which is reflected in both functions and regions." Tang Yunyi said that from a functional point of view, the four major exhibitions connect the global market through import and export, reflecting the complete system of trade; in terms of regional layout, It represents the first city with the most developed economy in China's reform and opening up, and is related to the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and Hainan Free Trade Port, reflecting the country's strategic layout.

"I believe that with the advancement of China's high-level opening to the outside world, the role of the four major exhibitions will be further enhanced and deepened." (End)
