More consensus.

As an important part of international trade and an important area for international economic and trade cooperation, serving trade has the characteristics of light assets and soft elements. In recent years, with the emergence of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change, digital technology has extensively infiltrated all aspects of production, circulation, and consumption, which greatly improves the trade availability of services. Especially since the epidemic of new coronary pneumonia, traditional service trade has been impacted, and it has also spawned a large number of new technologies, new formats, new scenarios, and rapid development of remote services, non -contact economy, etc., with digital, intelligent, and green. The dense service trade has become a new momentum for development. In the context of the current global epidemic and the vulnerable recovery of the world economy, service trade needs to be more open, transparent, inclusive, and non -discriminated development environment. And motivation.

In recent years, China has made great progress in the field of service trade. Since 2012, China's service trade imports and exports have maintained a rapid growth momentum, with an average annual growth of 6.1%, which is 3.1 percentage points higher than the global growth rate. In 2021, the total import and export of China's services exceeded 800 billion U.S. dollars, a record high, an increase of 21.4%year -on -year, and ranked second in the world for eight consecutive years. At present, more than 200 countries and regions with service trade with China have increased to more than 200 countries and regions. China has signed bilateral service trade cooperation agreements with 15 countries including Brazil, Japan, and Portugal. After years of development, service trade has become an important part and growth point for China to carry out international economic and trade cooperation in foreign countries.

Opening is a distinctive sign of contemporary China. In recent years, China has accelerated the construction of a higher -level open -type economic system, and has reduced the negative list of foreign capital access for five consecutive years. In Hainan to explore the management system for the negative list of cross -border service trade, the regional comprehensive economic partnership agreement (RCEP) officially took effect, adding 22 open service open departments, increasing the level of openness of 37 service departments. In August 2022, China joined the "Digital Economic Partnership Agreement" (DEPA) working group officially established to comprehensively promote the negotiations of joining DEPA. China's opening door is getting bigger and bigger, and has made positive contributions to promoting bilateral economic and trade cooperation, promoting the recovery of global service trade and development.

The 10 years of the development of the service and trade will witness the rapid growth of China's service trade. In the past 10 years, the service trade association has not only established a communication platform for international cooperation in the field of service in China, has injected new impetus into the development of global service trade, and also provided important support for the high -quality development of China's service industry. The number of exhibition area and offline exhibitors of this service and trade will exceed the previous session. It focuses on more than 200 activities such as service trade open cooperation, green development, and digitalization process. With "service" sharing, the world's sharing of the Chinese market opportunities will effectively boost global economic confidence. (Meng Qingchuan)
