Optimizing the business environment is not the best, only better.

　　In the face of many challenges brought by changes in the external environment to China’s development, as well as many shortcomings and deficiencies still existing in the business environment, we must make great efforts to promote the optimization of the business environment in depth. The various reform measures introduced depend on whether the procedures can work, the possible negative effects and overlapping effects of policies and measures should be considered, and enterprises and the masses should really get benefits.

　　According to the Business Environment Report released by the World Bank recently, the ranking of China’s business environment in the world jumped from 78th last year to 46th, and it entered the top 50 in the world for the first time. According to the report, in the past year, China has implemented a record number of reforms to improve the business environment for small and medium-sized enterprises, ranking among the top ten in the world this year.

　　The improvement of the business environment is driven by reform. In recent years, China has fully implemented the national unified negative list system for market access, giving market players more initiative; Push forward the reform of "separation of licenses" throughout the country and reduce the start-up time of enterprises; "Internet+government service" opens up isolated islands of information, allowing more people to "run the internet more and run the road less"; Fully implement "double random and one open" supervision to improve the efficiency and fairness of supervision; On the basis of vigorously reducing taxes and fees in the past few years, this year, a number of measures have been intensively introduced, such as reducing the value-added tax rate and retaining tax rebates. It is estimated that the tax burden will be reduced by more than 1.3 trillion yuan in the whole year … …

　　The continuous optimization of the business environment makes the market more dynamic and attractive. In the first three quarters, there were a large number of new players in China’s market, and the number of newly registered enterprises exceeded 5 million, with an average daily number of more than 18,000. In the first three quarters, 45,922 foreign-invested enterprises were newly established in China, a year-on-year increase of 95.1%; The actual use of foreign capital was 636.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.9%.

　　The results are gratifying, and we still need to stay awake. In the face of many challenges brought by changes in the external environment to China’s development, many shortcomings and shortcomings still existing in the business environment, and the strong expectation of enterprises to reduce burdens, we must make great efforts to promote the optimization of the business environment in depth.

　　The intensity is bigger. At present, Chinese enterprises are facing multiple pressures such as transformation and upgrading, rising costs and intensified competition, and the changes in the international economic environment have brought troubles to some enterprises. Under this circumstance, it is even more necessary to increase tax reduction and fee reduction, release more policy dividends, and let enterprises have a real sense of gain. While ensuring that the established policies are implemented to the letter, we should promptly study specific measures to further reduce corporate tax burden and social security rates, further clean up and standardize administrative fees, increase the efforts to clean up and rectify intermediary service fees, and help enterprises go into battle lightly.

　　There should be more innovation. There are differences in business environment in different places, so it is necessary to be based on reality, innovate ideas, methods and countermeasures, act positively and be brave in innovation, and form an atmosphere of competing to optimize the business environment. The General Office of the State Council has previously informed some places of the typical practices of optimizing the business environment, such as the reform of the commitment system for enterprise investment projects, the reform of joint acceptance within a limited time, the reform of "one photo with multiple addresses" and "one license with multiple addresses", and the implementation of the "one-stop sunshine price" list. All localities should continue to innovate, constantly explore new methods, and use scientific and efficient "one thousand ways" to seek "exquisite" business environment.

　　Look farther. At present, countries are competing to create a more relaxed and convenient business environment to enhance their national competitive advantage. We need to relax market access, improve the system of qualified foreign investors, improve the level of investment facilitation by benchmarking international standards, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of foreign investors. On cross-border trade, the World Bank report praised China’s "single window" construction. Of course, we still need to look at the world and the future, promote a new round of reform and opening up, and further improve the level of rule of law, internationalization and convenience of the foreign investment environment.

　　The measures should be more practical. To optimize the business environment, we should not only focus on the internal evaluation of the government, but also focus on the actual feelings of enterprises and the masses. The various reform measures introduced depend on whether the procedures can work, the possible negative effects of policies and measures and the overlapping effects between them should be considered, and enterprises and the masses should really benefit. Government departments should strengthen the service spirit of "shop assistant", listen to the needs of enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, private enterprises and difficult enterprises, and help them solve difficult problems.

　　At the symposium of private enterprises held a few days ago, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward six policy measures: reducing the tax burden of enterprises, solving the problem of difficult financing for private enterprises, creating a level playing field, improving the policy implementation mode, building a pro-fresh relationship between government and business, and protecting the personal and property safety of entrepreneurs, which injected strong confidence and motivation into the healthy development of the private economy, and also pointed out the clear direction and put forward higher requirements for the next step of optimizing the business environment.

　　Optimizing the business environment is not the best, only better. On this endless road, we should continue to struggle forward.
