The private economy continues to grow and develop, with broad prospects for high-quality development

When enterprises are dynamic, economic development will be driven. Since the new era, the vast number of private enterprises have been determined to forge ahead, and the private economy has continued to develop and grow, playing an important role in stabilizing growth, promoting innovation, increasing employment, and improving people's livelihood. Since the beginning of this year, private enterprises have continued to maintain their status as the largest foreign trade subject, and their international competitiveness has continued to increase. In the first eight months, private enterprises' imports and exports were 19.79 trillion yuan, an increase of 17.6%, accounting for 56.9% of my country's total imports and exports. The innovation momentum of private enterprises continues to increase, and their proportion of the country's high-tech enterprises will increase from 62.4% in 2012 to more than 92% in 2025. Innovative achievements are emerging, independent chip research and development has made new breakthroughs, domestic large-scale models lead the global open source ecosystem, robots have entered production lines, and new energy vehicles are galloping in domestic and overseas markets. Each vivid scene converges into a vivid picture of the private economy moving towards innovation and excellence.

The "15th Five-Year Plan" outline states that "developing and strengthening the private economy" "guarantees equal use of production factors, fair participation in market competition, and effective protection of legitimate rights and interests" in laws and systems, injecting strong confidence and providing a solid guarantee for the healthy development of the private economy.

From a macro perspective, the foundation for "stability" is even more solid. In the first half of this year, the GDP reached 69.6 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.7%, and the GDP increase was 3.6 trillion yuan, which is equivalent to recreating an emerging industrial province and equivalent to the annual economic aggregate of many medium-sized economies. Our country has the world's largest manufacturing system with the most complete categories and the most complete systems. It has a huge consumer market, huge market space, complete infrastructure, and a strong talent pool. The supporting conditions and basic trends for long-term economic growth have not changed. The driving force for development and the resilience of major countries continue to increase, providing a stable macro environment and broad market space for the private economy.

From the perspective of policy effectiveness, the momentum of "advance" is accelerating. The central and local governments have intensively released policy signals to promote the development of the private economy, such as stimulating the vitality of private investment. Local governments continue to optimize business-related services and promote the implementation of policies that benefit enterprises. Shanghai, Anhui, Shandong, Guangdong and other places have comprehensively implemented "enjoy without application" and "direct express". Zhejiang has built an "enterprise call me response" service platform to improve the convenience of enterprises. Hangzhou has built a "friendly online" platform to promote the efficient implementation of policies to benefit enterprises. Chengdu has established a private economic development promotion center to smooth government-enterprise communication channels and efficiently coordinate and solve problems. All localities continue to open up the "last mile" of policies to benefit enterprises, which will fully release policy dividends and further enhance private enterprises' awareness of the policies and their sense of gain.

From the perspective of industrial transformation, “new” tracks are accelerating expansion. Our country deploys an innovation chain around the industrial chain and strengthens the industrial chain through the innovation chain. Many private enterprises are realizing wonderful changes in digital intelligence during their transformation. Huawei has strengthened independent innovation and mass-produced 381 chips in mobile phones, servers, artificial intelligence and other fields, widely covering the digital and intelligent transformation needs of thousands of industries. For the first time, Blue Arrow Aerospace has successfully implemented the recovery method of the landing leg of a reusable launch vehicle stage, and my country's commercial aerospace reusable rockets have accelerated into the engineering verification stage. Traditional industries are continuing to improve and upgrade, emerging industries and future industries are being cultivated at an accelerated pace. Private enterprises have flexible mechanisms and sufficient innovation power, and are capable of investing in many new fields and new tracks, forming more first-mover advantages and demonstrating greater achievements.

From an international comparison, the “superior” position continues to be consolidated. With the in-depth advancement of high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road", my country's foreign trade "circle of friends" is growing day by day, and private enterprises have broader space to enter the international stage. From electric vehicles, lithium batteries, photovoltaics to artificial intelligence, robots, innovative drugs and other products, from Yiwu small commodities reaching more than 200 countries and regions around the world to Shenzhen Huaqiangbei Market, the average daily number of foreign purchasers exceeds 8,000. Our products are winning more and more favor, and the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain and supply chain have been continuously improved, and we are more confident to deal with various risks and challenges.

Looking to the future, the development prospects of the private economy are broad and promising. The majority of private enterprises must strengthen their confidence in development, seize development opportunities, and unswervingly follow the path of high-quality development. During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, we must implement the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council to the letter, adhere to and implement the "two unwavering", and use greater efforts and more practical measures to further expand space, optimize the environment, strengthen guarantees, and solve problems, so as to form an economic order that is both "flexible" and "well managed" so that the creative vitality of the private economy can fully burst out.

Improve the administrative law enforcement supervision mechanism, deepen the construction of a long-term mechanism for standardizing enterprise-related law enforcement, in-depth promote special judicial supervision of off-site law enforcement for violations and profit-seeking law enforcement, promote cross-department comprehensive inspections and "scan QR code to enter the enterprise", and minimize the impact on the normal production and operation of enterprises. Guide private enterprises to improve their governance structures and management systems, adhere to honest and law-abiding operations, and achieve healthy and high-quality development.

The vigorous development of the private economy is inseparable from the protection of a fair and orderly market competition environment and legal policies, and it is also inseparable from the hard work and hard work of the vast number of private enterprises who dare to think, dare to do, and dare to be the first. I believe that with the joint efforts of all parties, the vast number of private enterprises will be able to move forward courageously on the road of high-quality development and contribute more to Chinese-style modernization.
