  I am an old committee member, and even an old farmer.

I am 72 years old this year, and almost all of my classmates and my contemporaries have retired, but today I (still) continue to work.

  [Explanation] This year is the 31st year for Liu Yonghao, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of New Hope Group, to participate in the National Two Sessions.

At the National Two Sessions in 2023, Liu Yonghao will bring 6 proposals to the meeting, focusing on multiple dimensions such as rural revitalization and private enterprise development.

Liu Yonghao said that in recent years, in order to improve the business environment and support the high-quality development of private enterprises, the state and local governments have continuously introduced a series of bailout policies for enterprises, which have achieved remarkable results.

However, the current development of private enterprises still faces some difficulties.

  In the past year, bank deposits, especially regular deposits, have increased a lot, which means that our current consumption may have decreased to a certain extent. The reduction in consumption will in turn affect the sales of enterprises, which will affect the sales of enterprises, and of course affect the confidence of enterprises in investment and development.

  [Explanation] In this regard, Liu Yonghao suggested that it is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive, timely and accurate interpretation of various enterprise-related policies, and guide private entrepreneurs to correctly understand and grasp the expectations of the economic situation.

  For a while, some media, including some Internet celebrities, said that the development stage of the private economy was outdated.

Arguments like this have an impact on private enterprises.

I suggest that the spirit of the central government, such as supporting the private economy, supporting the socialist market economy, and supporting and commending entrepreneurs for their serious work, should be implemented, implemented, and publicized more, so as to reduce market misjudgments and social misunderstandings .

  [Explanation] Liu Yonghao believes that further boosting the confidence of private enterprises is of great significance to promoting the high-quality development of the private economy.

  I think the direction of our party and the government's support for the development of the private economy has not changed, and the strength has not diminished.

my country's economic transformation and upgrading brings opportunities and the market stimulated by people's demand for a better life is still quite large, which will bring more new development momentum to enterprises, so I am still full of hope for the future development of private enterprises confidence.
