Why focus on high -tech industries?

——The long -term support for good economic fundamentals, the opportunity of the Chinese market provides a fertile soil for innovation and high -end manufacturing

Foreign capital gathers in China's high -tech industries and is in line with China's pace of high -quality development.

Zhang Jianping analyzed that China's economic structure is accelerating. As the costs of various factors gradually rising, China strives to promote the development of high -value -added industries mainly based on high -tech industries and modern service industries, and continues to move towards the mid -to -high -end in many industries. "Especially the electronic information manufacturing industry, such as communication equipment, 5G base stations, and new energy vehicle development and utilization, biomedicine, aerospace, new materials and other emerging industries, China's global market share is rapidly expanding." Zhang Jianping said, "Foreign capital," foreign capital For speaking, choosing a high -tech industry means that investing in the future development can better meet the actual needs of the current optimization and upgrading of China's economic structure. "

The Chinese market opportunities provide a fertile soil for innovation and high -end manufacturing.

"We see that Chinese consumers have a high acceptance of innovation and are leading the trend of global consumption upgrade." Tang Shanda said, "For example, according to the demand for long -term freshness and health and sterilization of refrigerators in high -end consumer groups, we launch it. In the Bosch Global Zhijing M7 Refrigerator live oxygen version, the zero -degree Vitamin preservation technology equipped can perform dual -zone storage, warm and humid control, which brings 3 times the effect of fresh -keeping time. "Yu Feng believes that the Chinese market has developed rapidly, user needs Changes and upgrades are continuously accelerated. Under this trend, foreign -funded enterprises need to adopt a more agile innovation mechanism to more accurately and effectively meet user needs. Therefore, Honeywell is vigorously exploring China's popular mid -range market and meets market demand through customized innovative products.

The encouragement and support of national policies to high -tech industries has also strengthened the confidence of foreign companies' investment in "innovation China".

"For example, a 15%income tax preferential policy is given to foreign direct investment for high -tech enterprises. The recently announced" Encourage Foreign Investment Industry Catalog (2022 Edition) (Draft for Opinions) "also guides foreign investment to more investment in advanced manufacturing, modern manufacturing, modernity Service, high -tech, green low -carbon, digital economy and other areas and the central and western regions, "Zhang Jianping said.

According to Yu Feng, during the "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" period, China ’s prospects in the fields of digital economy and low -carbon development brought broad development space for Honeywell. Honeywell's core business fits China's market demand and development trend. About 60%of the company's new product research and development has improved customers' environmental protection performance and social benefits. Driven by China's "Carbon Dafeng" and "carbon neutralization" goals, Honeywell is optimistic about the opportunities for energy, aviation, construction, chemical industry and other industries to promote energy conservation and emission reduction and achieve sustainable development.
