The "blowout" growth of new enterprises stimulates market vitality —— A summary of the reform effect of industrial and commercial registration system

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 24th (Reporter Gao Jing, Tan Moxiao, Meng Hanqi) After the implementation of the reform of the registered capital registration system, from March to June, 4,400,600 new market entities were registered nationwide, a year-on-year increase of 20.48%. Among them, there were 1,269,300 newly registered enterprises, an increase of 66.85%. The number of enterprises has increased by spurt, and the market vitality has been further released, which has played an important role in stabilizing growth and promoting employment.

    The reform of registered capital registration system stimulates a new upsurge of entrepreneurship

"The reform of industrial and commercial registration has made my dream of starting a company come true." Chang Zhaosheng, a 70-year-old man from Jilin Province, said.

Before the reform, Chang Zhaosheng had patented technology in video recording equipment, but he was unable to apply for registration as a company due to lack of funds. The reform of the registered capital registration system canceled the minimum requirement of the registered capital of the company, and no longer restricted the initial investment amount, investment proportion and investment period of the company’s shareholders. Chang Zhaosheng successfully obtained the business license, and his registered capital was all composed of intangible assets.

The reform of the registered capital registration system, which was implemented on March 1st this year, has greatly reduced the entry threshold for registered capital and business premises of enterprises, and enabled more people with "entrepreneurial dreams" like Chang Zhaosheng to realize their dreams.

The new entrepreneurial upsurge has also brought vitality to economic development: the number of service enterprises in China has increased significantly; The number of market players in the central and western regions has increased significantly faster than that in the east; It has an obvious driving effect on emerging industries such as information transmission, software and information technology, culture, sports and entertainment.

A large number of new individual and private economies have also become the main channel to solve employment. By the end of June, the number of individual and private economic employees in China had increased by 13,034,600 compared with the end of last year, an increase of 3.88 times over the same period of last year.

    "Take a photo first, then prove it" to clear up the "obstacle" of entrepreneurship

"In the past, it took a lot of procedures to run a restaurant license. This time, it didn’t take me 30 days to officially open the restaurant." Feng Hongjun, owner of Dangjun Restaurant in Banan District, Chongqing, said.

Chongqing has fully implemented the industrial and commercial registration reform since January 28 this year, becoming one of the first provinces and cities in China to fully implement the industrial and commercial registration system reform. After hearing this information, Feng Hongjun, who has been drifting north for more than ten years, chose to return to his hometown to start a business. After obtaining the business license from the industrial and commercial department, he applied for a license from the food and drug supervision department while decorating, recruiting and purchasing equipment. When the renovation was completed, all the formalities were completed and the restaurant opened smoothly.

The the State Council executive meeting held on June 4th decided to continue to clean up and compress the existing pre-approval items, change most of them into post-approval, and change from "first license before photo" to "first license after photo", and implement a catalogued management system, which will be open to the public and subject to supervision.

Liu Junhai, director of the Institute of Commercial Law of Renmin University of China, pointed out that "taking photos first and then obtaining certificates" can improve the company’s survival rate and promote the company to carry out commercial activities as soon as possible. This reform is not a simple mechanical displacement of the examination and approval system and the registration system in the time dimension, but a major institutional innovation that comprehensively reduces and restricts the government’s examination and approval power, reconstructs public power and enhances the government’s credibility, and contains great positive energy for reform and innovation.

    "lenient entry and strict management", exploring the balance between management and release in practice

After lowering the entry threshold, corporate integrity has become one of the most concerned issues in society. This tests the management level of the government.

Wang Yukai, a professor at the National School of Administration, said that how to achieve the balance between management and release, not only to encourage entrepreneurship and stimulate market vitality, but also to maintain market order and avoid the strange circle of "management will die and release will be chaotic" is a difficult problem that the government must solve under the new situation.

The Provisional Regulations on Enterprise Information Publicity (Draft) adopted by the executive meeting in the State Council on July 23rd proposed to speed up the implementation of the enterprise information publicity system, rely more on establishing a transparent and honest market order to regulate enterprises, create a fair competitive market environment, and make credit the "foundation pile" of the socialist market economic system. Experts believe that this will help to further deepen the reform of the industrial and commercial registration system and straighten out the relationship between the government and the market.

According to the reporter’s investigation, Chongqing started to develop and build a joint credit information system for enterprises, and collected and integrated 26.773 million pieces of enterprise credit information. Through the application of enterprise credit information data in engineering construction, government procurement, land transaction, drug transaction, and approval of financial funds related to enterprise subsidies, the behavior of enterprise dishonesty is effectively restrained, and a strict management work pattern of "one place is untrustworthy and everywhere is limited" is initially formed.
