In recent years, I have had the opportunity to visit more than ten provinces and regions of China—from the metropolises of the eastern coast to the rapidly developing cities of the interior regions and western provinces. These trips allowed me to see the country in motion—on the streets of modern cities, in industrial parks, at international exhibitions, and in logistics centers connecting China with various regions of the world.
When you visit China regularly, economic indicators cease to be just numbers. Behind them are real enterprises, ports, railway terminals, and technology clusters.
According to Guangkai Tao, senior researcher at the Institute of Industrial Research, the resilience of Chinese exports is supported by a powerful manufacturing base, a complete industrial chain, and diversified sales markets. At the same time, the export structure is being modernized and product competitiveness is increasing. This trend is also noticeable in the real economy. In coastal regions—especially in the east and south of the country—the scale of industrial parks and technological zones, which house modern enterprises and research centers, is impressive. Many cities have become major international business hubs.
The inland regions are also strengthening their role. The development of infrastructure, construction of high-speed railways, and creation of industrial clusters are transforming the cities of the inland provinces into new centers of economic growth. The western regions of China are gaining special significance, gradually becoming important gateways for international trade and key hubs of the “Belt and Road” initiative. Here, transport corridors are being formed, connecting China with Central Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
The Executive Director of the Goldencredit research department, Feng Lin, notes that an additional factor for growth was the global investment boom in the field of artificial intelligence and the rise in prices within the semiconductor production chain. At the same time, industrial modernization is stimulating exports of new energy vehicles and other high-tech products.
For the countries of Central Asia, this dynamic is of particular importance. The development of transport and trade corridors within the framework of the “Belt and Road” gradually changes the economic geography of Eurasia, strengthening the interconnections between regions.
The long-term strategy of openness and economic modernization is yielding tangible results. New airports, transport hubs, technology parks, and innovative enterprises are emerging across the country. Therefore, the current record figures in foreign trade appear not as a random success, but as a logical stage in China’s development, which continues to strengthen its position in the global economy and expand the scope of international cooperation.
