Hong kong-international business center

Excellent geographical location (South Gate of China)

Hong Kong is located at the southeast end of China and at the center of rapidly developing East Asia. Hong Kong has a total area of about 65,438+0,65,438+000 square kilometers, which consists of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula separated by a sea and the New Territories, with the suburbs mostly concentrated in the New Territories. The 235 outlying islands in Hong Kong are also included in the New Territories, and Lantau Island is the most widely known. Lantau Island is not only the location of Hong Kong's new airport, but also the location of Hong Kong Disneyland. It's very convenient to drive or take the central railway, and you can get there directly. Hong Kong companies have established extensive business contacts in Asia and around the world, and Hong Kong entrepreneurs enjoy a high reputation overseas for their business acumen and "business acumen". Hong Kong has a deep-water port with a population of 6.8 million. Adhering to the industrious spirit of China people, it has an inseparable relationship with China. Hong Kong people are flexible, highly educated and full of entrepreneurial spirit, which is the reason why Hong Kong can explode amazing productivity and creativity. Hong Kong has a special geographical position. When night falls in North America, the European countries are at dawn, and the sun shines in Hong Kong. In other words, as long as multinational companies have offices in North America and Hong Kong, or Europe and Hong Kong at the same time, they can actually take advantage of the time difference between the two places to operate 24 hours a day and handle different projects. It is undoubtedly very convenient for companies engaged in information technology and financial services.

Global service center

Over 80% of Hong Kong's GDP comes from the service industry. The service industry covers everything, from sea and air transportation all over the world to contracted production and software design, reaching the international advanced level. In view of fierce competition, the charges for many services in Hong Kong are the lowest in the world. In recent years, with the opening of the international long-distance telephone market, the long-distance telephone charges in Hong Kong have also dropped significantly. At present, the cost of calling the United States from Hong Kong is even cheaper than that between American states.

Regional headquarters of multinational corporations

In 1999, there were 880 companies with Hong Kong as their regional headquarters in Asia. American companies set up the most regional headquarters in Hong Kong (205), followed by Japan (1 14) and Britain (82). In addition, about 1, 650 countries have chosen Hong Kong as their regional office. The main businesses of these regional headquarters include wholesale/retail, import and export trade, other commercial services (such as accounting, advertising, law and other industries), finance, manufacturing, transportation and related services.

Streamline the administrative structure of the government

The Hong Kong government is streamlined and efficient. The tax rates of companies and individuals are low and easy to calculate. The Hong Kong Government is also famous for its excellent efficiency, high transparency and impartiality. It is willing to support the development of industry and commerce, but rarely interferes with the operation of the market. For the past six consecutive years, Hong Kong has been listed as "the freest economy in the world" by the American Heritage Foundation.

Invest in Hong Kong

Hong Kong's open information, complete legal system and clean government are the main factors that attract enterprises to choose to operate in Hong Kong. According to a survey conducted by representatives of overseas companies of the Industry Department in Hong Kong 1999, there are 2,400 foreign-funded enterprises in Hong Kong, of which 840 are regional headquarters and 1650 are regional offices. Respondents said that the government's integrity, open information, political stability, excellent banking and financial facilities, geographical location and tax system are the primary factors they consider when making investment decisions. The vast majority of the interviewees think that Hong Kong is well-developed in information, plus first-class banking and financial facilities, low tax rate, simple tax system, perfect infrastructure and clean government, and they speak highly of Hong Kong.

Hongkong is the gateway for business and investment in and out of China Mainland, and it also provides necessary talents and funds for economic modernization in the Mainland. At present, about half of the export goods are still transshipped to the mainland through Hong Kong, and Hong Kong's investment in the mainland accounts for about 50% of the total foreign direct investment in the mainland. About 800 ferries, 100 flights, 35 trains and 27,000 cars travel between China and Hongkong every day. About 50,000 companies in Hong Kong have set up their own production facilities in South China, employing about 5 million employees. At present, there are about 654.38 million people in Hong Kong working in the Mainland, mainly responsible for management and training positions.

On the other hand, mainland China is also a major investor in the Hong Kong economy. There are about 2,000 domestic enterprises registered in Hong Kong, with total assets approaching 200 billion US dollars, making them the third largest foreign direct investors in Hong Kong. With China's accession to the WTO, Hong Kong will definitely strengthen its position in the world trade market with its own technology and contacts with mainland institutions, and many industries in Hong Kong's economy will also have good prospects. With the opening of the financial industry, retail investors and institutional investors interested in investing in East Asia will increase their investment one after another, and small and medium-sized foreign-funded enterprises are expected to further increase their direct investment. Since Hong Kong has always played the role of an intermediary, this development is beneficial to Hong Kong.

Hong Kong's telecommunications industry will also benefit from this, because enterprises and increasingly popular Internet services will demand telecommunications in the next few years, and China has also enacted a new law to allow enterprises with 50% equity of foreign telecommunications providers to operate in China. Some people even expect Hong Kong to take the lead in developing new internet software and specific software and internet materials to meet the needs of domestic users and the global Chinese community. For this industry, the rise of the stock market of small companies in Hong Kong and other parts of the region, coupled with the participation of more and more foreign investors and venture capital enterprises, will definitely help the business development.

Links between Hong Kong and the outside world

Links between China and China Many works devoted to doing business in the Mainland encourage enterprises to establish contacts in advance to cope with the complicated business environment in the Mainland. There are many important people in China who can influence the business of the company. Therefore, interpersonal relationship and reputation are often the most important assets for enterprises to negotiate business in China.

Interpersonal relationship is the outstanding point of Hong Kong entrepreneurs. Hong Kong agents have extensive contacts in the Mainland. They know local factories, suppliers and retail buyers. They can easily find dealers and conduct market research. They are also familiar with the land authorities in different places and know the tricks of dealing with provincial and municipal governments. Establishing relationships with key people and institutions can make enterprises get twice the result with half the effort. It is expensive to establish these relationships, but agents, consultants and entrepreneurs in Hong Kong usually have certain relationships. If foreign businessmen are interested in doing business in the Mainland, whether selling products in the Mainland or engaging in local production, they can cooperate with Hong Kong enterprises or entrust Hong Kong agents to handle it, which can save start-up time and make business development smoother. Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce, local trade organizations and management consulting companies can provide you with information and find partners with domestic business experience.
