What problems exist in the future development of e-commerce?

1, lack of innovation in business model

At present, e-commerce in China is at the level of copying and imitating traditional business models and foreign business models, and there are few innovative models combined with China's national conditions. Theoretically speaking, compared with traditional commerce, e-commerce has many advantages. However, due to various reasons, there is a huge contrast between the explosive growth of the website and the "burning money" loss of the website.

2. The level of enterprise informatization is very low.

Enterprise informatization and e-commerce are inseparable, and enterprise informatization is the basis of developing e-commerce. The backwardness of enterprise informatization has seriously restricted the development of e-commerce in China. As the main body of e-commerce, the informationization of business process and management process is a necessary prerequisite for enterprises to carry out e-commerce.

3. The social credit system has not been formed.

In the market economy, good credit plays an important role in enterprises, which can bring stable suppliers and customers and various additional benefits.

4. Lack of e-commerce senior talents.

E-commerce is an organic combination of informationization and traditional commerce, which requires a large number of compound talents who are proficient in modern information technology and modern business theory and practice. Whether a country or region can cultivate a large number of such compound talents has become the most critical factor for the development of e-commerce in that country or region.

5. E-commerce policies and regulations are not perfect.

E-commerce is a complex system engineering. It involves not only the two parties to the transaction, but also the business administration, customs, insurance, taxation, banking and other departments in different regions and countries. This requires a unified legal and policy framework, as well as a strong cross-regional and cross-departmental comprehensive coordination body.

6. The supporting system of e-commerce is not perfect. The information infrastructure, logistics distribution system, financial payment system and information security system adapted to e-commerce are not perfect.

7. We should distinguish different problems and treat them differently. There are also some problems in the traditional commercial field, such as counterfeiting, lack of integrity and so on. In this regard, the government should strengthen supervision and actively safeguard normal market transactions. There are also some problems derived from the transaction characteristics of e-commerce, such as gateway authentication and network security.

8. There is also the problem that B2C enterprises only earn scale and do not make profits. From the earliest 8848 to today's Amazon, and then to the red children and customers who grew up later, it is common. We believe that this kind of problem appears in the process of business innovation, and the regulatory authorities and industries should adopt a tolerant attitude and use market methods to solve it, and must not strictly restrict it by administrative means as soon as they encounter problems. The supervision of e-commerce industry should pay more attention to the protection of consumers' rights and interests, that is, by perfecting relevant laws and regulations, safeguarding consumers' legitimate rights and interests will become the driving force for standardizing enterprise behavior and promoting the healthy development of the industry.

Indeed, the rapid development of e-commerce has had a great impact on the original commercial order, especially the contradiction with traditional industries is deepening. The development of e-commerce not only affects the growth space of traditional commercial enterprises, but also encroaches on their existing markets.

Since the "two sessions" of 20 13, the issue of taxation of e-commerce enterprises has aroused heated discussion. In fact, the problem of taxation is the concentrated outbreak of the contradiction between traditional business model and e-commerce, and taxation has become an important demand for traditional industries to seek fair competition.

10. From the international experience, e-commerce is an industry with high technology intensity, large R&D investment and high risk, which often needs the support of the government through preferential policies such as taxation and financing.

1 1. As early as 1998, the United States introduced the tax exemption bill for e-commerce transactions, and 4 1 of the 50 States exempted Internet service providers from sales tax and use tax; 45 States levy 1% consumption tax and use tax on online commodity transactions (far lower than the conventional commodity sales tax of more than 4%). However, with the enhancement of the competitiveness of e-commerce, the Market Fairness Act passed by the US Senate on May 6, 20 13 allows state governments to tax e-commerce across regions (online stores with out-of-state sales below $6,543,800+0,000 can be exempted from tax), which weakens the price advantage of online shopping to some extent.

12. At present, it is reasonable to tax e-commerce in China. However, as a strategic emerging industry, when determining who to tax, how much to levy and what kind of industrial policy to formulate, we should take promoting the sustainable development of e-commerce industry and improving the overall welfare of society as the main considerations, and form a reasonable tax plan on the basis of taking into account both current and long-term interests.

Extended data

The key factors for the future development of e-commerce are payment, logistics and data. How to grasp these three key factors is not only a challenge, but also a great opportunity for all internet industries and people interested in future economic development. The dilemma of high logistics cost, low efficiency and poor service has become a key factor hindering the future development of e-commerce, and self-built warehouses will become the key to the transformation of e-commerce.
