First, this is an important task for the construction of Hainan Free Trade Port. In the "Overall Plan for the Construction of Hainan Free Trade Port", China has defined the positioning of Hainan as an international tourism consumption center and proposed to hold the China International Consumer Goods Expo. This year's "Government Work Report" also put forward clear requirements.

Second, this is an important measure to better meet people's living needs. Last year, China's per capita GDP exceeded 1 10,000 US dollars, which has entered an important stage of consumption upgrading, but the high-quality supply capacity can not better meet the people's growing needs for a better life. To host China International Import Expo(CIIE), we should stick to the supply-side structural reform as the main line, adhere to the theme of high-quality development, attract domestic and foreign consumer products, integrate the preferential policies of Hainan Free Trade Port, expand effective high-end supply, and better meet people's needs for a better life.

Third, this is an important platform for building a new pattern of development. Judging from the participation structure of the first Consumer Expo, foreign-funded enterprises and foreign brands account for the majority, which once again proves the firm determination of the China government to promote high-level opening up, and fully shows that foreign-funded enterprises are optimistic about the China market, the China market and the economic development of China.

"To realize the' three effects', we must work hard on' marketization, internationalization, specialization and informationization'. Benchmarking international standards, adopting international exhibition operation rules, gathering domestic and foreign buyers and sellers, focusing on top-level consumer products, integrating * * * to enjoy superior resources, and aligning with world-renowned exhibitions. "

We will adhere to a high starting point and strict requirements, take the needs of exhibitors and professional visitors as the starting point, carefully create highlights, fully highlight the distinctive features of national-level exhibitions with consumer goods as the theme, enhance influence and attractiveness, and make the Expo a landmark project for the construction of Hainan Free Trade Port.

"Online and offline linkage is a very big feature of the first consumer Expo." Zhu, director of the Department of Market Operation and Consumption Promotion of the Ministry of Commerce, said that in recent years, new formats and models such as online shopping, cross-border e-commerce and live broadcast have developed rapidly, providing new channels for consumers to shop, optimizing the supply of domestic consumer market, improving the convenience of residents' consumption, enabling people to buy good products from all over the world anytime and anywhere, which has played a positive role in promoting the return of consumption abroad and upgrading domestic consumption.
