CCTV News: Recently, many Chinese departments and institutions have released monitoring data on domestic economic performance during the May Day holiday. Judging from the number of indicators such as customer flow, retail and catering sales, and tourism order volume, China's consumer market continues to heat up this holiday. Lin Jian said on May 8 that the hot holiday consumption reflects the vigorous vitality and potential of China's economy, and China will always be committed to providing "engine" for world economic growth.
Spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Lin Jian introduced that according to statistics, during the May Day period, the national sales revenue of consumer-related industries increased by 15.2% year-on-year. The average daily entry and exit of Chinese and foreign personnel was 2.179 million, an increase of 28.7% year-on-year. Among them, 1.115 million foreigners entered and left the country, an increase of 43.1% year-on-year, and the sales of inbound travel increased by about 90%. From "China Travel" to "China Shopping", institutional opening-up measures are transforming into real attraction to foreign tourists. At the just-concluded Canton Fair, many indicators such as the number of overseas purchasers and on-site intention export transactions have set new historical records. There are 376 leading multinational procurement companies, setting a record high, reflecting that the business circles of various countries continue to be optimistic about the long-term positive development of China's economy. The "China Business Environment Development Report (2025)" released by China recently comprehensively demonstrates the Chinese government's determination and sincerity to continuously create a market-oriented, law-based and international first-class business environment for Chinese and foreign enterprises. Policy innovation and market vitality resonate in the same frequency, release demand and enrich supply and make efforts in the same direction. These are the "code" of China's economy's resilience and the confidence and confidence that China can withstand external risks and challenges and steadily and high-quality development. The temporary storm cannot overturn the huge ship of China's economy, nor can it stop the Chinese people's pursuit and struggle for a better life. China will always be committed to high-level opening up, to win-win cooperation, and to provide "engine" for world economic growth.
