In 2024, fruit imports from ASEAN countries through south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region reached a new high of nearly 2.5 million tonnes.

As the first stop and major hub for ASEAN fruit entering the Chinese market, Guangxi is turning the vision of "ASEAN production, Guangxi distribution, and China sales" into reality. A trade pattern of "buying from ASEAN, selling nationwide; buying nationwide, selling to ASEAN" is steadily taking shape.

In south China's Guangdong Province, the city of Shenzhen, a modern international metropolis, and Shanwei, an old revolutionary base in need of development, are over 100 kilometers apart. Stretching from Shenzhen to Shanwei, a "golden corridor" for the new energy vehicle (NEV) industry has taken shape. Nearly 30 upstream and downstream enterprises have been connected like links in a chain, forming an NEV industrial cluster worth hundreds of billions of yuan.

Through the Xiaomo International Logistics Port, which fosters port-industry integration, China's NEV exports are gaining strong momentum and accelerating their expansion in global markets.

In just eight and a half hours, fresh Norwegian king crabs can arrive at Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport in central China's Henan Province, still covered with seawater at minus two degrees Celsius.

Thanks to the Zhengzhou–Luxembourg "Air Silk Road," European delicacies can now reach China within a single day.

China is making steady efforts to build a new system for a higher-level open economy, with openness being a defining feature of Chinese modernization. The number of items on the foreign investment negative list has continued to shrink. All restrictions in the manufacturing sector have been lifted, and pilot programs to open up service sectors such as value-added telecommunications and biotechnology are progressing in an orderly manner.

Over the past five years, China has been expanding its level of opening-up, with a series of major initiatives rolled out to share opportunities and pursue development with the rest of the world. Despite uncertainties in the global environment, China remains a key contributor to global economic growth and a stabilizing anchor for the world economy.
