How to combine international trade service industry with e-commerce

E-commerce has ten major influences on international trade. That includes us, China.

The first influence is that e-commerce has promoted the development of the whole world trade and China trade. The biggest advantage of e-commerce is that it provides trade facilitation, and this kind of trade in goods and services is developing at a relatively fast speed. In terms of service trade, the world trade in goods of 1999 was $240 billion at that time. In 200 1 year, e-commerce trade exceeded 1 trillion dollars. In 2006, global e-commerce accounted for about 18%, which was very fast.

Trade in services is also developing at a high speed. First of all, the development of e-commerce has greatly promoted the development of international trade in goods and services.

Second, electronic tools make international trade and transactions more convenient and fast. The specific performance of trading tools can be faster, and the cost and transaction expenses are probably reduced.

Second, in terms of payment, a bridge of high-speed operation has been built, and in terms of capital operation.

Third, the delivery mode has developed in many ways, and electronic tools make the development of international trade itself more convenient.

Third, important changes have taken place in traditional international trade operators. With the development of modern information technology, there are some specialized information collection industries, virtual companies and some enterprises, which are very different from the original ones. In addition, SMEs still have more room for development.

The main body of international trade has changed greatly compared with the original.

Fourthly, after the development of e-commerce, the management mode of international trade has changed greatly. First, a new trade service mode has been formed, breaking through the traditional pattern of single logistics, and now an economic strategy based on logistics, centered on information flow and dominated by business flow has been realized. Therefore, it can provide all-round, multi-level and multi-angle interactive business services for manufacturers and traders all over the world. Make international trade projects develop in depth.

Second, trigger a revolution in the intermediate organizational structure of international trade. After the emergence of e-commerce, information network has become the largest middleman, and the status of middlemen, agents and importers and exporters in traditional trade has declined accordingly.

Third, great changes have taken place in the management of e-commerce.

Fifth, e-commerce has changed the changes of traditional costs, which are embodied in technical costs, security costs and legal costs. These costs bring challenges to enterprises. If enterprises can better accept the cost of technology, safety and law, their competitiveness will be improved accordingly. If any enterprise cannot accept the cost of technology, safety and law, its competitiveness will be greatly reduced, which will bring severe challenges to small and medium-sized enterprises.

Sixth, e-commerce has a great influence on the international market. E-commerce will have a global unified virtual market. The Internet has covered more than 150 countries, with more than 70,000 connections. The terminal develops at the rate of 16% per year, and the virtual market has appeared.

Second, the law of market value will play a role on a global scale.

Third, the original international trade rules will undergo great changes. At present, e-commerce is trade facilitation, but there are also problems. Nowadays, new service intermediaries such as ID card authentication, credit authentication and financial settlement have become new links in international trade.

Fourth, the concept of international trade marketing will change greatly.

Fifth, the buyer's ability to control the market has increased, and market segmentation has intensified. On the one hand, e-commerce further unifies the international market, on the other hand, it further intensifies the division of the international market.

Seventh, after the emergence of e-commerce, the preference for consumer demand can be realized faster. First of all, online trade gives consumers more choices. Second, provide more convenience for small consumers. Third, consumption on demand becomes possible. In this way, consumption has a preference, and the spread speed in the world can also be accelerated.

The eighth impact is that trade has developed rapidly under the development of e-commerce, and the global economic welfare may be improved. Globally, economic welfare has improved. This is good for both producers and traders, and the international division of labor is further deepened, thus improving the overall welfare income of the world. But this brings a problem. In the process of economic globalization, the gap between developing countries may widen. After the rapid development of e-commerce, in the global profit distribution brought by e-commerce, if developing countries can't catch up now, the benefits brought by e-commerce may be less than in the past.

At present, after the emergence of e-commerce in developing countries, welfare distribution has provided it with severe challenges.

Ninth, e-commerce has a greater impact on international production and international trade.

First of all, the emergence of flexible enterprises makes production more flexible. Inventory can be reduced to some extent. Second, multinational companies have global production marks, and competition is intensified. Third, change the traditional production mode of enterprises and produce according to orders to meet the needs of consumers.

Tenth, the world economic structure will further develop to the service industry and information industry, and will undergo tremendous changes. After the development of e-commerce, the policy orientation of international trade may change greatly.

The first change poses a huge policy challenge to the ever-changing trading system, which is based on the organization and laws of the World Trade Organization. This challenge comes from several aspects. First, how to define the basic attributes of e-commerce, how to integrate with the existing agreements of the World Trade Organization after the emergence of e-commerce, and how to integrate some existing agreements. How to define the connotation of some e-commerce behaviors in e-commerce? So far, the WTO has just begun to contact this aspect.

Second, after the emergence of e-commerce, security appeared. One is to bring great challenges to the data security of enterprises themselves, and the other is to bring great challenges to the economic security and ideological protection of the country. This sense of security comes from two aspects, one is the problem of enterprises and the other is the development of the country itself. The problem of security is how to solve this problem.

Third, the current tariffs. Originally, it was said that there would be no taxation for the time being, whether there would be taxation in the future, and whether there would be taxation in e-commerce trade. If taxation is imposed, how is the process of taxation implemented? How to implement the technical standard of online transaction statistics? Now is how to solve the problem of statistics, which is about tariffs. Fourth, how to give special treatment to developing countries on the Doha e-commerce issue. E-commerce has received some special treatment in the service industry. In the Doha Round, how can developing countries consider their own difficulties and adopt special policies to help them develop, so as to truly achieve the goals of the WTO itself?

Under the framework of the vigorous development of e-commerce, it is a big problem for WTO and multilateral trading system to implement the original unique treatment into various agreements of multilateral trade and e-commerce.

Fifth, WTO TRIPS, trade-related intellectual property rights, has been formulated, involving some problems of e-commerce, but it is still not comprehensive. E-commerce has realized problems such as operation, trademark, copyright and publishing. How is it reflected in TRIPS? After the emergence of e-commerce, it poses a great challenge to the multilateral trading system of the World Trade Organization and should be solved well. If not solved, the gap between developed and developing countries in world trade may widen.

Second, the impact on the trend of trade policies of various countries. First, developed countries generally advocate trade technicalization, that is, e-commerce liberalization. They promote the liberalization of e-commerce through various channels and believe that e-commerce is a powerful weapon for them to open the world market. They have great advantages in this respect. Developed countries are very active in e-commerce liberalization.

Secondly, for developing countries, what is their attitude towards e-commerce liberalization? Now developing countries are embarrassed. On the one hand, developing countries hope to use e-commerce to accelerate their advantages and development. However, developing countries feel that their capital and technology are insufficient. So, in a passive position.

Now developing countries are in the process of passive acceptance in the process of e-commerce liberalization. So far, a few developing countries, including Singapore, South Korea and China, have been active in trade liberalization and formulated various policies. However, e-commerce has not been popularized in developing countries. In the process of e-commerce trade liberalization in developing countries, their attitudes are quite different. A few developing countries are developing rapidly and may support trade liberalization. Perhaps most developing countries are worried about the liberalization of e-commerce trade.

Third, civil organizations are basically opposed and anxious about the liberalization of e-commerce trade. At present, non-governmental organizations have a negative attitude towards economic globalization. They oppose WTO meetings, including the World Trade Forum held recently in South Korea. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are very powerful now and take an unwelcome attitude towards the liberalization of e-commerce. How to truly understand that world e-commerce represents the development direction of the world and solve the problems in the development of e-commerce in developing countries.

If this problem is solved well in the world, the promotion of e-commerce liberalization in the world may encounter great difficulties.

Therefore, the emergence of e-commerce will bring great development opportunities and challenges to international trade. I think APEC members will cooperate in e-commerce and strengthen communication through various forums. In this way, APEC members can make good use of the opportunities in the process of commercial liberalization and e-commerce development. At the same time, strengthening our cooperation will help to resolve some risks brought by e-commerce to international trade. Resolve some troubles and meet challenges.

In this way, it will promote the development of all APEC members. Seek win-win and win-win in the process of electronic development liberalization, and promote and promote the trade and development of the world economy.
