五、香港：入世25年不可或缺的中國貢獻
在中國入世25年的輝煌成就中，筆者認為香港憑藉「一國兩制」獨特優勢，扮演了不可替代的「超級聯繫人」角色，成為中國開放的重要窗口與橋樑。
作為全球最大的離岸人民幣中心，香港處理全球75%以上的離岸人民幣結算業務，滬港通、深港通、債券通等互聯互通項目，成為國際資本配置中國資產的核心渠道。香港交易所匯聚1370餘家內地企業，累計為內地企業融資超37萬億港元，是內地企業「走出去」、國際資本「引進來」的首選金融平台。
在貿易與物流領域，香港機場連續十餘年位居全球貨運機場榜首，是「中國製造」通往世界的超級物流樞紐。CEPA協議率先對接WTO規則，為內地開放探路先行；金融、法律、會計、仲裁等專業服務全球領先，國際調解院總部落戶香港，助力中國對接全球高標準經貿規則。
從入世初期的開放跳板，到新時代的國際金融、貿易、航運中心，香港始終與內地同頻共振，共享入世紅利，共同推動中國開放型經濟邁向更高水平。
六、啟航「十五五」：香港深化貢獻，共築高質量發展新格局
站在入世25週年的歷史節點，中國迎來「十五五」規劃的開局之年。作為基本實現社會主義現代化的關鍵五年，「十五五」規劃將「高質量發展取得顯著成效」作為核心目標，以科技自立自強為戰略支撐，全面推進產業體系現代化與高水平對外開放。這一國家戰略佈局，不僅為中國經濟續航注入強大動能，更為香港在新時代深化「超級聯繫人」與「超級增值人」功能，開闢了前所未有的廣闊空間。

25 Years of WTO Membership: China Shocks the World with a Miracle, Hong Kong Forges a Monument of Openness
2026 marks the 25th anniversary of China's accession to the World Trade Organization. On December 11, 2001, China officially joined the WTO, embarking on a historic journey of deep integration into the global economic system. Over these 25 years, China has evolved from a rule-taker and participant to a defender, builder and contributor to the multilateral trading system. It has not only achieved leapfrog economic development but also reshaped the global industrial, trade and infrastructure landscape with a series of world-class, iconic and pioneering projects. From high-end manufacturing to global infrastructure, from the digital economy to opening-up platforms, China has delivered a remarkable WTO accession report card with hard work and innovation.
Over the past 25 years, China's economic size and global status have witnessed a historic leap. Its GDP surged from 11.1 trillion yuan in 2001 to 126 trillion yuan in 2023, with its global share rising from 4% to over 18%, securing its position as the world's second-largest economy. Contributing more than 30% annually to global economic growth, China has become a veritable "stabilizer" of global growth. Total foreign trade soared from around 500 billion U.S. dollars to over 6 trillion U.S. dollars, an eleven-fold increase in 25 years.
In the meantime, China has achieved profound breakthroughs in trade and opening-up. Merchandise exports jumped from 266.1 billion U.S. dollars to 3.38 trillion U.S. dollars, with its global share climbing from 4.3% to 14.6%, making China the world's largest merchandise trader for consecutive years. The overall tariff level dropped sharply from 15.3% to 7.3%, and the service sector opened up in more than 120 sub-sectors. China has become a major trading partner of more than 140 countries and regions, deeply embedded in the global industrial chain. In the author's view, these 25 years have seen China create a globally acclaimed miracle, making an indelible contribution to global economic growth.
1. High-End Manufacturing & Tech Innovation: From Follower to Global Leader
In the early days of WTO accession, China's manufacturing sector was dominated by labor-intensive industries with core technologies controlled by others. Over 25 years, leveraging the markets, capital and technologies brought by opening-up, China has transformed from "the world's factory" to a "manufacturing power" and "innovation power", with a batch of world-class projects leading the globe.
China's high-speed rail has become its most iconic national calling card. Through introduction, digestion, absorption and re-innovation, China mastered core technologies including tracks, signaling, power and braking. By 2026, China's high-speed rail network exceeded 45,000 kilometers, accounting for over 60% of the world's total. Lines such as Beijing-Shanghai, Beijing-Guangzhou and Chengdu-Chongqing serve as arteries linking China's economic map. Meanwhile, China's high-speed rail has gone global: the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Rail became the first in Southeast Asia, the China-Laos Railway opened for full operation, and the Budapest-Belgrade Railway progresses steadily, making Chinese standards and technologies a top choice for global infrastructure.
The new energy vehicle industry chain stands as a core achievement in China's seize of the global green industry. Over 25 years, China has nurtured homegrown brands including BYD, NIO, XPEV and Li Auto, building a complete industrial chain covering vehicles, power batteries, electric motors, electronic controls and materials. CATL and BYD lead global battery market share. In 2025, China's new energy vehicle exports surpassed 5.25 million units, accounting for over 60% of the global total, completely reshaping the global automotive industry.
China dominates the global photovoltaic and new energy industry. Its photovoltaic industrial chain from polysilicon, wafers, cells to modules takes up over 85% of global capacity. With technological iteration and cost advantages, China has become a core driver of global clean energy adoption. Wind turbines, energy storage systems, UHVDC transmission and other projects also lead the world. The world's first UHVDC transmission line, gigawatt-scale wind farms and large-scale photovoltaic power stations span China, supporting its position as the world's top investor and user of green energy.
5G and the Beidou Navigation System symbolize China's self-reliance in digital infrastructure and space technology. China operates the world's largest 5G network with over 3.5 million base stations and more than 1.2 billion users. Huawei and ZTE rank among the global leaders in 5G essential patents, setting international communication standards. The Beidou-3 system was fully completed with centimeter-level accuracy, recognized by ICAO and IMO standards. Together with GPS and Galileo, it forms three major global navigation systems, serving over 200 countries and regions.
Furthermore, breakthroughs continue in "bottleneck" sectors including semiconductors, industrial母机 and high-end equipment: SMIC mass-produces 7nm chips, Yangtze Memory achieves independent control of flash memory chips, Shanghai Micro Electronics Equipment develops domestic lithography machines, and 5-axis linkage CNC machine tools break foreign monopolies. A host of major projects have strengthened the core competitiveness of China's manufacturing industry.
2. Trade & Opening-Up Platforms: A Benchmark for Institutional Opening-Up
Over 25 years in the WTO, China has stayed committed to greater opening-up, building a series of national-level, international and high-standard opening-up platforms as a crucial bridge connecting China and the world.
The China International Import Expo is the world's first national-level exhibition themed on imports. Since 2018, seven consecutive sessions have seen cumulative intended deals exceed 3 trillion U.S. dollars, serving as a "golden channel" for global goods, technologies and services to access the Chinese market, demonstrating China's determination to open its market to the world. The Canton Fair, CIFTIS, CICPE and CIIE together form four major exhibition platforms, becoming vital arenas for global trade cooperation.
Pilot free trade zones and the Hainan Free Trade Port have become "test fields" for China's institutional opening-up. From the establishment of the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone in 2013 to the expansion to 22 nationwide and the full-island customs closure of the Hainan Free Trade Port, China has replicated and promoted 379 institutional innovations in trade facilitation, investment liberalization, financial opening-up and rule of law. Negative-list management, cross-border e-commerce regulation and expanded service sector opening-up have provided Chinese experience for global trade governance.
The full coverage of the international trade "single window" has greatly improved customs clearance efficiency, reducing time by over 80% since accession. The number of cross-border e-commerce comprehensive pilot zones has expanded to 165, with annual transactions exceeding 2.6 trillion yuan, making China one of the fastest-growing and largest digital trade markets in the world.
3. Belt & Road Initiative: A Global Connectivity Plan
Twenty-five years after WTO accession, China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has become the world's largest international cooperation platform, with landmark infrastructure projects tightening ties between China and the world.
China-Europe Railway Express, a flagship BRI project, has operated over 80,000 trips, linking 25 European countries and 217 cities, serving as a logistics artery across Eurasia and effectively safeguarding global industrial and supply chain stability. Projects including the China-Laos Railway, Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Rail, China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and China-Thailand Railway have been delivered, upgrading infrastructure in partner countries while boosting trade, employment and economic growth.
The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) and the Silk Road Fund are global public goods provided by China. The AIIB has 109 members, approving over 200 projects with investment exceeding 38 billion U.S. dollars, focusing on global infrastructure development. The 40-billion-U.S.-dollar Silk Road Fund precisely supports BRI industrial cooperation and connectivity, becoming a vital force in global development financing.
In regional trade cooperation, China pushed the entry into force of RCEP, creating the world's largest free trade area. It completed negotiations on China-ASEAN Free Trade Area 3.0 and applied to join high-standard economic and trade agreements including CPTPP and DEPA, advancing global trade liberalization and facilitation with concrete actions.
4. Digital Economy & New Infrastructure: Empowering the Future
China's digital economy has grown by leaps and bounds over the 25 years of WTO membership, with new infrastructure emerging as a new engine of growth. Optical fiber broadband coverage exceeds 98%, and total computing power ranks second globally. Data centers, intelligent computing centers and industrial internet projects land rapidly, laying a solid foundation for artificial intelligence, cloud computing and big data industries. Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud rank among the world's top cloud computing providers. E-commerce, mobile payment and live-streaming e-commerce lead the world, with the digital economy accounting for over 45% of GDP, becoming a core driver of China's high-quality development.
China leads the world in artificial intelligence, with DeepSeek and Seedance 2.0 as its flagship AI brands. In recent years, China's large models and multi-modal technologies have achieved leapfrog development, with original AI projects shocking the world.
DeepSeek (Deep Seek) excels internationally in mathematical reasoning, code generation and complex logic tasks. With an open, innovative and highly efficient architecture, it has become a benchmark in the global open-source community, widely used in scientific research, industry, finance and education, representing a core breakthrough in China's general artificial intelligence foundation models.
Seedance 2.0, a new-generation AI video generation model independently developed by ByteDance, supports text, image, audio and video inputs. It features professional cinematography, consistent characters and physical realism, generating Hollywood-quality videos rapidly. Its technology ranks among the world's elite, drastically lowering content creation barriers and establishing China's leading position in AI video technology globally, serving as a key technical foundation for digital culture and international communication.
5. Hong Kong: An Indispensable Contributor to China's WTO Success
In China's glorious 25-year WTO journey, Hong Kong, with its unique "one country, two systems" advantage, has played an irreplaceable role as a "super connector", becoming a vital window and bridge for China's opening-up.
As the world's largest offshore RMB center, Hong Kong handles over 75% of global offshore RMB settlement. Connectivity mechanisms including Stock Connect, Bond Connect and Wealth Management Connect have become core channels for international capital to allocate Chinese assets. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange hosts more than 1,370 mainland enterprises, accumulating over 37 trillion Hong Kong dollars in financing for mainland companies, making it the preferred financial platform for mainland enterprises to "go global" and international capital to "come in".
In trade and logistics, Hong Kong International Airport has ranked among the world's top in cargo volume for over a decade, serving as a super logistics hub for "Made in China" to reach the world. The CEPA agreement was the first to align with WTO rules, paving the way for mainland opening-up. Hong Kong's financial, legal, accounting and arbitration services lead the world. The headquarters of the International Court of Arbitration is located in Hong Kong, helping China connect with high-standard international economic and trade rules.
From an opening-up springboard in the early WTO years to an international financial, trade and shipping hub in the new era, Hong Kong has always stood with the mainland, sharing the dividends of WTO accession and jointly advancing China's open economy to higher levels.
6. Setting Sail for the 15th Five-Year Plan: Hong Kong Deepens Contributions to a New High-Quality Development Landscape
At the historic juncture of the 25th WTO anniversary, China embarks on the 15th Five-Year Plan period. A critical five years for basically achieving socialist modernization, the 15th Five-Year Plan takes "notable progress in high-quality development" as its core goal, with sci-tech self-reliance as strategic support, comprehensively advancing modernization of the industrial system and high-level opening-up. This national strategy not only injects strong momentum into China's economy but also opens unprecedented space for Hong Kong to deepen its roles as "super connector" and "super value-adder" in the new era.
The 15th Five-Year Plan clearly proposes unswervingly implementing "one country, two systems" and the principle of "patriots administering Hong Kong", supporting Hong Kong in consolidating and enhancing its status as an international financial, shipping and trade center, building an international innovation and technology hub, and developing a global high-end talent hub. To align with national strategies, the Hong Kong SAR Government has launched its first local five-year development plan, led by the Chief Secretary, focusing on five areas including finance, innovation and technology, talents and regional cooperation to ensure alignment with national development.
As an international financial center, Hong Kong will seize the 15th Five-Year Plan opportunity to deepen its "finance+" strategy, innovate offshore RMB businesses, expand the scope and products of Bond Connect, Stock Connect and Shenzhen Stock Connect, supporting high-level opening-up of China's capital market. Meanwhile, Hong Kong will focus on green finance and fintech, building a global offshore RMB green financing hub, providing professional financial services for the mainland's "dual carbon" goals and modern industrial system, and attracting global capital to participate in China's high-quality development with an international legal and regulatory environment.
In building an international innovation and technology hub, Hong Kong will deeply integrate into the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area international sci-tech innovation center, leveraging platforms including the Hetao Shenzhen-Hong Kong Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone, Qianhai and Nansha to promote cross-border flow of innovation factors. With strengths in basic research in AI, life and health, new materials and new energy, Hong Kong will fill gaps in cutting-edge sectors, jointly launch national major sci-tech projects, and help achieve self-reliance in core technologies, becoming a key source of national original innovation. Hong Kong can also attract global AI talents and teams, serving as an important hub for the internationalization and commercialization of top Chinese AI technologies such as DeepSeek and Seedance 2.0.
In talents and professional services, Hong Kong will act as an international talent "channel" and "reservoir", building a global high-end talent hub. By relaxing entry policies and optimizing tax arrangements, Hong Kong attracts top global innovation, financial and legal talents, connecting them with the mainland to supply scarce talents for national modernization. Meanwhile, Hong Kong's legal, accounting and arbitration services will further align with high-standard international rules, helping Chinese enterprises better "go global" to compete and govern globally.
In regional coordination and national strategy participation, Hong Kong will focus on the Greater Bay Area, deepening industrial cooperation with mainland cities, promoting integration of manufacturing and services to support Guangdong's high-quality development. Meanwhile, Hong Kong will deeply participate in high-quality BRI development, leveraging its shipping and logistics hub advantage to serve as a super transit hub for China's economic and trade cooperation with BRI countries. With platforms including the International Court of Arbitration headquarters, Hong Kong will elevate China's voice in global economic governance.
Forging Greater Success in the Next 25 Years
The 25 years of WTO membership are years when China embraced the world and developed itself, and years when China contributed to the world and led the future. From speeding high-speed rails to exported new energy vehicles, from the CIIE to BRI connectivity, from 5G leadership to digital empowerment, from DeepSeek's reasoning breakthrough to Seedance 2.0's video innovation, every outstanding project and hard achievement witnesses China's unceasing pace of opening-up.
Setting sail for the 15th Five-Year Plan, China's high-quality development enters a new stage. Hong Kong, as the nation's "super connector", will upgrade from a "bridge" to a "growth pole". Under the unique advantage of "one country, two systems", Hong Kong will align its first local five-year plan with national strategies, deepening contributions in finance, innovation and technology, talents and professional services, creating a new chapter for its own development while injecting new impetus into win-win cooperation between China and the world.
Standing at a new historical starting point, China will continue to advance reform, development and innovation through opening-up, march forward hand in hand with Hong Kong, share development opportunities with the world, promote the steady and long-term development of the multilateral trading system, and forge even greater achievements in the next 25 years.
