In order to implement the requirements of the provincial party committee of “being tough on both sides and winning both wars”, and to coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, Sheng Qiuping pointed out on April 18 that opening up is the distinctive background of China’s economy and China’s unswerving strategic choice. In recent years, a series of laws and regulations, such as the new Foreign Investment Law, have provided a strong guarantee for foreign-funded enterprises to expand the Chinese market. In accordance with the requirements put forward by General Secretary Xi Jinping during his visit to Zhejiang, Zhejiang Province is striving to create an important window for comprehensively demonstrating the superiority of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and continuously optimize the fair and transparent business environment. “We will further do a good job in the ‘mother’s family’ of foreign-funded enterprises, including Starbucks, in Zhejiang. It is hoped that Starbucks will strengthen its confidence and make great strides forward in Zhejiang, promote more stores and characteristic industrial bases to land in Zhejiang, so that the aroma of coffee and the traditional tea aroma of Zhejiang can be blended and developed. ”
