特别策划丨中国大市场将为世界带来广阔市场机遇、投资机遇、增长机遇

Core Viewpoint - The construction of a strong domestic market is a strategic support for Chinese-style modernization and an important foundation for optimizing the supply system and promoting high-quality development [5][6][22]. Economic Outlook - In 2026, the external environment is expected to continue impacting China's economic development, which still faces challenges. However, the overall conditions supporting long-term economic growth remain unchanged, with strong industrial foundations and broad market space [1][6]. - International organizations and investment banks have raised their economic growth forecasts for China in 2026, indicating a positive outlook for China's role in global trade and value chains [1][6]. Domestic Market Challenges - The supply-demand imbalance in China is a significant issue, limiting the release of the advantages of its large-scale market and hindering the optimization of the supply system [7][8][9]. - Key industries in China face core technology deficiencies, leading to vulnerabilities in the industrial chain. Despite strong competitiveness in manufacturing, there are notable gaps in high-tech and high-value-added sectors compared to developed economies [7][23]. - Some industries experience "involution" competition, resulting in low production efficiency and resource waste. The average profit margin for large industrial enterprises in 2024 is only 5.39%, significantly lower than that of developed countries [8][24]. Strategies for Supply Optimization - Expanding domestic demand is crucial for optimizing the supply structure. The focus should be on enhancing the adaptability and balance between supply and demand to promote a virtuous economic cycle [10][11][25]. - Measures to boost consumption include increasing residents' income, improving social security systems, and encouraging innovation in products and services to enhance consumer confidence [10][11][25]. - Effective investment should be expanded to optimize the supply structure, combining investments in physical assets and human capital to drive high-quality development [11][26]. Global Significance of Domestic Market Expansion - A strong domestic market not only supports China's modernization but also serves as a source of vitality for global economic recovery. China has become the second-largest consumer and import market globally, providing significant opportunities for other countries [13][28]. - The ongoing reforms in foreign investment management and the improvement of the business environment in China are attracting foreign investment, with 22.9 million new foreign enterprises established during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period [13][28]. - The strong domestic market can inject new growth opportunities into the world economy, helping to counteract trade protectionism and promote a more open and inclusive global economic environment [14][28].
