[Short video][New quality productivity]Take the initiative to seize the country’s high-quality development opportunities Leung Chun-ying: Hong Kong has absolute advantages in trade services – Hong Kong people on demand – Hong Kong people talk about the place

//Hong Kong must leverage its trade advantages to help mainland goods sell at good prices. This is also the purpose of developing new productive forces. //

Products made in China are known for their high quality and low price, but their high cost performance may not always be a good thing for farmers, workers, and even businesses. At the Manufacturers Association’s “New Productivity and Hong Kong’s High-Quality Development” summit forum, Leung Chun-ying took China’s wine, tea, coffee and other products as examples, saying that Hong Kong will deepen trade cooperation with the mainland and walk the last mile of the country’s high-quality development. . Leung Chun-ying, Vice Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, said: “There is a saying in Hong Kong: ‘Don’t be afraid of comparing goods, but be afraid of not knowing the goods.’ Our products of the same quality have the potential to increase prices. The word I use is ‘potential’, and the meaning of the word potential is Yes, we don’t have this capability yet.”

Leung Chun-ying continued: “China’s wine industry is constantly improving in the primary and secondary production areas of grape growing and wine making. Our country’s wines still do not have widespread market recognition. The Australian wine brand Penfolds has We use their brands to sell our wines. Hong Kong’s trade is not a self-produced and self-sold trade. Hong Kong’s trade is to facilitate third-party sales, third parties between two parties, and trade between buyers and sellers. Trade services, Hong Kong’s trade services industry has absolute advantages across the country. The advantages I just mentioned are high-quality productivity. These high-quality productivity and reputable service industries, combined with the mainland’s high-quality primary and secondary industries, are put together. Added together, specifically, Made in China (Made in China) plus Sold by Hong Kong (Sold by Hong Kong), we can form new productive forces. The development of the Mainland needs Hong Kong, and the development of Hong Kong needs the Mainland.”

Many mainland brands focus more on domestic sales than the international market. Chan Cho-hang, chairman of the Hong Kong Productivity Council and member of the Legislative Council, believes that Hong Kong companies should take the initiative to help mainland products explore the international market. He said: “We used to call domestic mobile phones ‘cottage mobile phones’, which means that the ‘quality’ is still not up to standard, but with the development of our country’s science and technology and the continuous improvement of manufacturing industry, we are actually slowly achieving some high-quality products. Products are also very cost-effective, but when the quality improves and the products are good enough, we have a huge market in China, and everyone is busy competing for the Chinese market. In fact, don’t forget that when the products are very good, they can also enter overseas markets. Who will do it? ? From the perspective of the development of new productive forces, our Hong Kong institutions and Hong Kong businessmen can play a very good role, because in addition to our own business, we can also go out to sea and develop together with mainland institutions, products and companies. A market.”

Lu Jinrong, president of the Manufacturers’ Association, said that the Manufacturers’ Association should seize opportunities in the process of the country’s development of new productivity and use Hong Kong’s advantages to help high-quality products from the mainland sell at high prices. He said: “Manufacturers will have technology commercialization platforms to assist in the implementation of our innovative technologies and basic scientific research, and there will also be pilot transformation centers to assist with product upgrades and transformations. In addition, we also have ESG, which is green and environmental protection, and can assist Some companies and products are developing in the direction of high quality. Hong Kong is an international city. We have many exhibitions that can help products from the mainland come to Hong Kong to hold an exhibition. I think this development and sales are also our services. , Hong Kong provides services in all walks of life, including financial services, some of our professional services, design and brand aspects, and we have a sales channel and promotion in various aspects. I think some service industries can assist the country. Some products go overseas.”
