The reporter has recently found that many provinces and cities including Jilin, Hebei, Liaoning and other places have formulated specific plans for international capacity cooperation. From an international perspective, China-France, China-Latin America, China-Kazakhstan Many other cooperations are also being carried out intensively, and the construction of the international production capacity cooperation system is also speeding up. Authoritative experts interviewed by reporters pointed out that international production capacity cooperation is not about eliminating backward production capacity, but transferring my country's comparatively advantageous industries to markets where there is demand. At present, the layout of international production capacity cooperation has begun to show its outline, and the path of advancement focusing on overseas economic and trade cooperation zones has gradually become clear.

In May of this year, the State Council issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting International Capacity and Equipment Manufacturing Cooperation" (referred to as the "Guiding Opinions"). With the official release of this guidance document for promoting international capacity cooperation, the policy framework for international capacity cooperation Basically established.

After the central government proposed international production capacity cooperation, the idea of ​​local docking has gradually become clear, and many localities have formulated targeted work plans. It is reported that Jilin Province has recently formulated a work plan for the advancement of key projects in equipment manufacturing and international capacity cooperation. In the next step, Jilin Province will advance the construction of 60 key projects, delineating Northeast Asian countries such as Russia and Mongolia, countries along the “Belt and Road” and Africa as key areas. Hebei Province has also formulated several opinions to support international cooperation in superior production capacity, and identified “4+1” superior industries such as steel, cement, glass, photovoltaics and equipment manufacturing as key areas of production capacity cooperation. In addition, Liaoning and other places have also formulated international capacity and equipment manufacturing cooperation implementation plans, and put forward a list of key industries, enterprises, products and projects.

Judging from the current promotion path of various regions, overseas economic and trade cooperation zones have become the preferred carrier. According to statistics from the Ministry of Commerce, China is currently establishing 118 economic and trade cooperation zones in 50 countries around the world, of which 77 are located in 23 countries along the “Belt and Road”. These overseas economic and trade cooperation zones have become platforms for Chinese enterprises to invest and cooperate abroad, and are also platforms for industrial agglomeration. Some of these zones have become incubators and models for local industrialization.

From an international perspective, China-France, China-Latin America, China-Kazakhstan and other cooperation are also being intensively carried out. For example, China and Kazakhstan have formed a list of early harvest projects, including 48 projects with a value of 30.3 billion US dollars; China and Belgium signed 12 bilateral cooperation documents with a value of more than 18 billion euros; Chinese and French governments jointly issued a third-party market cooperation Joint statement: China-Latin America capacity cooperation is also being carried out in a new "3×3" model, etc. According to the relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission, as of now, the National Development and Reform Commission has led the development of capacity cooperation with 12 countries.

At the same time, with the emergence of mechanisms such as the production capacity cooperation ministry and province coordination mechanism and third-party cooperation, the construction of the international production capacity cooperation system mechanism is also speeding up.

"It needs to be emphasized that international capacity cooperation is not about eliminating outdated capacity, but about the transfer of my country’s comparatively advantageous industries to demand markets. In addition, capacity international cooperation is not exclusive. It is an industry accelerating cluster that attracts the host country and Third-party enterprises jointly promote the industrialization of relevant countries." Xing Houyuan, an authoritative expert in the field of domestic foreign investment and vice president of the Ministry of Commerce Research Institute, clearly pointed out in an interview with reporters.

From the perspective of the industries to be promoted, Xing Houyuan believes that it is not only limited to the 12 key industries mentioned in the "Guiding Opinions" such as steel, nonferrous metals, and building materials, more industries will face development opportunities. Infrastructure must "go global," and production services such as finance, power, communications, and logistics must also "go global."

From the perspective of the region to be promoted, it should be not only for developing countries, but also for developed countries and transition countries. "Cooperation with high-end markets and high-end companies will help us better acquire intelligence, management, market channels and capital resources. Whether we can integrate resources globally to plan overall development is the key to whether we can lead the transnational industrial system in the future."

In Xing Houyuan's view, international production capacity cooperation is not only an important strategic deployment that follows the laws of international industrial development and closely integrates international demand with domestic economic development, but also an important measure for China to respond to the new economic normal.

"International capacity cooperation is a systematic project. It is not a problem that enterprises can solve simply by going out, nor is it a problem that can be solved with a few plans. International capacity cooperation must follow the laws of international industrial development and conform to the laws of market economic development." Xing Houyuan pointed out.

She pointed out that the characteristics of industries in different regions are different. Each region must address new contradictions and new problems in local economic development and promote economic and social development according to its own conditions.

In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will prepare an international production capacity cooperation plan, relevant provinces, key enterprises, and major financial institutions will establish collaboration mechanisms, expand bilateral production capacity cooperation mechanisms, promote the implementation of a number of key cooperation projects, and jointly develop third-party markets with developed countries. The Ministry of Commerce will also increase policy support. Through special funds for foreign economic and trade development, preferential loans, medium and long-term export credit insurance and other policy measures, we will focus on supporting foreign investment and cooperation in advanced manufacturing and competitive industries.

"The construction of overseas cooperation parks that began in 2006 can be regarded as a pilot stage, laying the foundation, and now is to officially enter the stage of accelerating the development of international production capacity cooperation. This year can be regarded as the start-up phase of international production capacity cooperation for the next five to ten years. In-depth advancement of the layout of the plan." Xing Houyuan said.

In her view, the previous "going out" related support policies were inclusive of benefits, and today's international production capacity cooperation requires more targeted policies. For example, the previous policy for the construction of the park cooperation zone should be further strengthened and promoted. Financial and insurance policies should also be innovated. For example, policy-based overseas investment insurance should expand its coverage. At the level of fiscal policy, it is necessary to continue to expand the coverage of double taxation avoidance agreements, while taking into account the use of domestic policies to compensate for the countries that have not signed the agreement. vacancy. Government services and foreign policy should continue to be strengthened.
