China's development of e-commerce countermeasures recommendations
While e-commerce has begun to form a boom in China, but active participation is still only some information technology companies. From the perspective of society as a whole, there are two aspects of preparation is still insufficient: on the one hand, the groundwork, that is, the degree of informatization of enterprises is not high. Whether it is industrial enterprises, commercial enterprises or foreign trade enterprises, their own use of computers for business processing and information management, or to carry out online business, have not reached the appropriate scale. Enterprise informatization is the basis for the development of e-commerce, enterprises do not realize the digitalization of business processing, can not go online, can not implement e-commerce.
On the other hand, the government's work is not ready enough. E-commerce is different from traditional business, is a network as the carrier of the new business operation mode. To carry out this work, it will involve the relevant regulations and standards, such as digital signatures, electronic contracts, etc., whether they can be recognized by the law, there is no corresponding legislation in these areas. However, the "Year of E-commerce" prompted the State Council Legislative Affairs Bureau, the Beijing Municipal Legislative Affairs Office to pay close attention to this issue, we are discussing how to formulate the legal issues involved in e-commerce. Currently in the case of the law is not yet perfect, encountered problems can be resolved by the Arbitration Commission to resolve disputes.
About the specific countermeasures, there are the following preliminary suggestions:
1) Tracking and researching the development trend of international e-commerce, analyzing its favorable and unfavorable impacts on China's import and export trade, capital outflow and inflow, and national economic development and social progress, and formulating the coping strategies at an early stage.
2) From China's national conditions, relax the definition of e-commerce, in addition to the promotion of EDI and the Internet these two kinds of e-commerce, and at the same time in the country to vigorously advocate and actively promote e-commerce through the telephone, facsimile, television, electronic payment and money transfer system and other four ways, in order to seek from the e-commerce stage, ordering and payment stage, transportation stage, respectively, to accumulate useful experience and create the necessary conditions. Necessary conditions.
3) Concentrate on giving priority to the development of international e-commerce, and promote foreign trade enterprises to take the first step, and then "external for internal use", and then gradually develop e-commerce in domestic trade, in which the e-commerce between enterprises can be the first to get up.
4) Encourage the development of e-commerce in areas with conditions. More developed economy, relatively high degree of informatization, the leadership attaches importance to e-commerce, e-commerce needs and benefits of the region, especially some of the conditions of the coastal provinces, cities, and a few provincial capitals and central cities in the Mainland, should be encouraged to lose no time to develop various forms of e-commerce, to give play to the demonstration effect, so as to promote the popularity of the other regions.
5) Starting from the creation of conditions, such as accelerating enterprise reform, cultivating the national market, and promoting the informatization of the national economy, to establish an e-commerce environment that has market demand and can benefit both enterprises and residents. In the enterprise marketing channels are not smooth links, especially need to create conditions to facilitate the development of e-commerce. Of course, e-commerce is not an end in itself, the ultimate goal is to promote economic growth, improve the quality of enterprises and increase the welfare of the people.
6) the key to good e-commerce is coordination. Sectoral division, regional closure, is not good for e-commerce. Although China has formed the Ministry of Information Industry, can vigorously promote e-commerce, but the country's e-commerce is still not the strength of a department can be resolved, the need for other relevant departments to cooperate with the participation of the integrated sector, in particular, all sectors of the community **** the same efforts and concerted collaboration. Therefore, we suggest that the State Council in due course to set up a national e-commerce promotion committee, unified planning and coordination of China's e-commerce development issues.
From the construction of e-commerce, at present can be roughly divided into three levels: 1. e-commerce, i.e., advertising on the Internet or provide business. Where the use of electronic information technology means for business activities can be seen as a broad sense of electronic commerce. This is a wide range of low-level e-commerce. 2. online aggregation, with a clear buyer and seller, the aggregation process is actually the expansion of e-commerce. The result of online matchmaking is online contracting, which will involve the issue of legal authentication and legal effect. 3. electronic transactions, which is the highest level of e-commerce. Its core is electronic payment and electronic settlement. At present, the Ministry of Economy and Trade to engage in the network will actually be a kind of electronic commerce, should be strongly advocated, because it is, after all, the use of advanced electronic information technology for online comparisons, convenient, fast, cost-saving.
Sen e-commerce development and application of the prospects for analysis
Since the 1990s, with the network, communications and information technology breakthroughs, Internet in the global explosive growth and rapid popularization. Under this premise, e-commerce came into being. E-commerce is a new business model based on the Internet, with both parties to the transaction as the main body, with the bank electronic payment and settlement as the means, relying on customer data, it can make merchants and suppliers closer together, faster to meet customer demand, but also allows merchants to choose the best suppliers in the global context, and sell their products in the global market. Since 1998, "the year of e-commerce", e-commerce in the world's rapid development, about every nine months its turnover doubled, global e-commerce transactions (including online trade, sales, etc.) reached hundreds of billions of dollars, e-commerce revenue increased by 262%, is expected to 2003, the number of people on the Internet will reach 350 million, then the e-commerce market revenue will reach $ 1 billion, and the number of people on the Internet will reach $ 1 billion. It is expected that by 2003, the number of Internet users will reach 3.5 billion, when the e-commerce market revenue will reach trillions of dollars. First, the development of e-commerce overview
1, e-commerce
E-commerce is an emerging, in the process of development of modern business methods, from 95 years has been the rapid development of a huge modern business value. 1997 Europe, the United States, Singapore and many other governments published an outline of the development of e-commerce, which is designed to guide the global e-commerce free competition and healthy development, and vigorously promote the development of e-commerce. Its purpose is to guide the free competition and healthy development of global e-commerce and vigorously promote the practice of e-commerce. The development outline of our government will also be issued in the near future to promote our enterprises to adapt to the development of internationalization and participate in international competition. It is reasonable to believe that in the 21st century, e-commerce will gradually become the main way of social life and the foundation of a digitalized society.
E-commerce activities are through the public **** computer communication network for business activities in a modern way, the way will break through the traditional business in time, geographical limitations, to become convenient, fast, safe and reliable mode of emerging electronic business activities. E-commerce makes modern business activities with security, reliability, speed, clarity and convenience, through the international interconnection network (INTERNET) we can carry out e-commerce activities anytime and anywhere. Since e-commerce involves many aspects of society, economy, finance, law and life, there are certain difficulties and problems. Its healthy development on the one hand requires people's work and life style, ideology and management methods will have fundamental changes; on the other hand, the national macro-control and management of e-commerce needs to be legislated and regulated; and then the technical security must be perfect and reliable.
The development of e-commerce will gradually change our way of life and work, the original face-to-face negotiation, paper exchange of management and business activities gradually become a computer remote operation completed by the way of digital activities. Without the limitations of time, space and human conditions, people's life and work will become convenient, flexible and free. Especially in the access to information, transmission of information, a variety of service activities, payment, delivery methods and other aspects will have fundamental changes. Any legitimate organizations and companies and even individuals through the international interconnection network to establish their own site can become a global information publisher; access to information with a wide range of content and selectivity; trade, business activities in the commodity awareness, contract negotiation, transactions through the international interconnection network information and network software to complete. Business administration will enter the electronic office mode, financial services in the check, counter, insurance, investment, corporate banking and family banking will be moved to the network. The use and development of digitized electronic silver coins provide convenient conditions for people to carry out business and financial activities across geographical areas. Humans will inevitably get used to living with computers*** and adapting to a digital existence in the age of e-commerce.
E-commerce has also completely changed the way we do business today, as there are no time and space constraints, people can handle their business from the comfort of their homes. Small companies can also realize global online ordering and accomplish worldwide business activities. More and more electronic money (credit cards, digital cash, etc.) online payment methods are being used in electronic transactions, and people are no longer restricted to carrying and using physical cash. Companies, stores, banks will not be the number of staff, branches, the number of size to distinguish between large and small, instead of turnover, information exchange, how much to arrange the economic seat. E-commerce will grow at a tremendous rate and will have a huge impact on the financial sector. The economic and financial state of the world will also be profoundly affected. The spatial and geographical breakthroughs in information exchange and digitized electronic money will promote economic development, but will also bring difficulties in economic and financial management. All countries need to formulate relevant laws and regulations to regulate the market; combined with technical security control to ensure the healthy development of this new business mode and market.
2. Application of E-commerce
E-commerce directly involves national laws, trade, finance, materials, circulation, information exchange, infrastructure and other aspects. Therefore, the promotion of e-commerce requires the establishment of a favorable e-commerce environment.
E-commerce is in fact the people in the traditional office, shopping malls, banks, as well as management and other places to carry out business activities to a public **** media, that is, computer interconnection network. The scope of e-commerce is very wide, including online management, online banking, online ordering, online trading, online marketing, marketing, advertising, up to the end of the home banking, shopping and telecommuting. E-commerce applications can be categorized into business-to-business, business-to-consumer and information distribution.

Currently such services mainly involve services such as top booking of airline tickets, registration of hotels, online bookstores, online shopping malls, etc.
3) information dissemination: in e-commerce, new information-based products are both easy to search and very practical, such as e-books, application software and application information. E-commerce and media combine with each other to *** with the development of markets and services. The new model of information-based e-commerce creates a new type of social market activity of e-commerce marketing, online advertising and online consumption.
4) Online management: through the communication base of interconnected networks, people can manage remote affairs, such as online financial management, online counseling, online teaching, online medical care, online investment, online entertainment, online life and so on.

To form an online digital consumer market.
Now many online banks, online shopping malls and online bookstores have opened, and online marketing and online advertising are developing. People are gradually entering the era of e-commerce for activities such as telecommuting, online shopping, online trading and online consumption.
3, e-commerce and e-payment
With the development of computers, networks, information technology and the increasing integration of the Internet has entered all areas of our social life and all aspects, whether it is an organization, units or families, individuals, can be through the Internet to obtain resources, **** enjoy information. The new e-commerce is in the Internet's broad connection with the traditional information technology system of rich resources combined with each other under the background of the emergence of an interrelated dynamic business activities, this Internet-based e-commerce to the traditional way of trading has brought about a revolution. Through the free transmission of a string of bytes on the Internet, based on a widely interconnected and completely open platform, the Internet realizes a low-cost, high-efficiency business model, including a variety of financial services.
E-commerce will be involved in business activities of all parties, merchants, customers, banks or financial institutions, information card companies or securities companies and the government, etc., using the computer network unified location in the unity of e-commerce, the full realization of online online transaction process electronically. E-commerce includes two basic links, namely: transaction links and payment and settlement links, mainly involving enterprises and individuals in the external transaction part, inevitably have to pay, settlement and tax and other external financial transactions, will inevitably require enterprises and enterprises, enterprises and banks to be able to carry out through the network of direct transfers, reconciliations, fees and other business transactions, and payment and settlement of business is overwhelmingly The vast majority of payment and settlement operations are completed by the financial special network. Therefore, leaving the bank, it will not be able to complete the payment of online transactions, and thus can not talk about the real e-commerce. The popularization of e-commerce application must be guaranteed by financial electronic, that is, through good online payment and settlement means to provide high-quality and efficient electronic financial services. Information technology and network for the financial electronic create the conditions, electronic banking, electronic wallet, electronic payment and smart credit card has begun to apply. However, in order to truly play the role of financial e-commerce to ensure the role of e-commerce, there is a need to establish a complete network of electronic payment system, to provide verification, bank transfer reconciliation, electronic securities, account management, transaction processing, payment on behalf of the payment, statement services and other full range of financial services and financial management information systems.
Two, China's e-commerce status
1, China's e-commerce
From an international perspective, China's degree of informatization is very low. At present, the market share of personal computers is only 15 million units, of which there is a part of the computer can not access the Internet, on average, less than one per enterprise and government departments. The slow speed of network operation, high network operating costs, the number of people accustomed to using e-commerce to obtain business opportunities are constrained by the development of e-commerce. However, the development of e-commerce in China has gained strong momentum. From 1998 by the IT industry and the media to promote the concept of e-commerce began to count, in just two years, e-commerce has been from the stage of enlightenment quickly into the implementation stage, new e-commerce sites such as online stores, shopping malls, specialty stores, auction stores, online ticketing, tourism, education, health care, as well as a variety of e-commerce information and trading sites, such as the emergence of a spring. According to China's e-commerce network statistics, as of the beginning of this year, the domestic online store has developed to more than 500, and is growing at an average rate of more than 2 per day. The area of development has also expanded from a few cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hangzhou to major cities along the coast and in the interior, and many industrial and commercial enterprises in traditional industries have begun to ascend to the stage of e-commerce. The number of Internet users has increased dramatically and has grown to 10 million (the number required for the large-scale application of e-commerce). At the same time, a large number of domestic and foreign venture capital involved in the domestic well-known sites such as "Sina", "Sohu", "8848", "Alibaba" and so on have been obtained one after another. "Alibaba, etc. have received tens of millions of dollars of investment from both domestic and foreign sources. More importantly, from the government to the business community, from all aspects of society to the general consumer, the development of e-commerce prospects and huge potential to recognize more and more clearly, in which the government actively support the development of e-commerce is the key to the key.
2, China's e-commerce development environment
1). Legal policy environment.
Sponsored by the State Informatization Office of China's e-commerce laws, systems, standards and other normative framework for the program has been basically formed, the country is also working on the development of China's e-commerce development implementation program. In the third session of the Ninth National People's Congress, called for the development of e-commerce law bill to become the first motion, widely noticed by all parties. The Government is stepping up its efforts to formulate and introduce a framework for the development of e-commerce in China as soon as possible. The relevant government authorities are also actively supporting the experimentation and exploration of e-commerce.
2). Information infrastructure.
(1) In the construction of network infrastructure, certain achievements have been made, for example, the initial formation of a number of larger interconnected networks, such as the China Education and Scientific Research Computer Network, the China Science and Technology Network, the Internet of China's public computers, and the China Golden Bridge Information Network. In terms of public telecommunication network, the three major support networks (narrowband ISON network, intelligent service network and multimedia communication network) will be basically completed within this year. (2) The smoothness of the six domestic Internet networks has been further improved. At the end of March this year, the China Internet Exchange Center in Beijing was established, and the network bandwidth was raised from 2M to 100M. The interface between the domestic Internet and the international Internet is planned to be speeded up significantly, and the leap from 300M to 1500M can be realized by the end of the year. (3) Mobile Internet is developing rapidly. In March this year, China Mobile Communications Corporation launched the "GSM" WPA commercial trial network in six major cities such as Beijing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and Shenzhen at the same time, and WPA cell phone users can use roaming services in these six major cities to access the Internet using cell phones with WPA function. Shanghai Mobile Communication Company also launched Shanghai's WPA portal site wap.sh.chrwobire.net simultaneously, and mobile e-commerce services have been launched or are ready to be launched by Walkie Talkie, Sohu, Alibaba, etc. (4) The popularity of information terminals has been on the rise. (4) The popularization of information terminals is growing at an accelerated pace, with PC sales increasing unabated and sales of set-top boxes, PDAs and WAP phones gradually opening up.
3). Security environment.
The state attaches great importance to security issues related to the development of e-commerce. The security certification center led by the People's Bank of China is stepping up its efforts to establish, and certification centers have been set up in some cities. With security standards, electronic signatures, cryptographic systems and other related core technology development has been emphasized and increased investment.
4). Payment environment.
Bank card online payment has been realized in some financial institutions. Other means of payment such as e-wallets, digital currencies and smart cards are under active development. The e-commerce that has been carried out, the settlement method is a combination of the earth and the sea, credit card, debit card, savings card, post office remittance and cash on delivery and other means of payment are mixed, and some are even online inquiries and offline transactions. Although some banks have now begun to carry out pilot work in such areas as online payment and the opening of online banking, it is difficult to rely on banks alone in the absence of a perfect credit system. Following the launch of online payment by major commercial banks, the e-commerce financial certification (CA) center led by the People's Bank of China will soon be launched, and relevant e-commerce laws and regulations are also being strengthened in the process of research and development. In the online transaction after the distribution of most of the post office to complete the delivery, more links, slow.
5). Capital market.
China's financial services and capital market development is quite lagging behind, and the development of the Internet and e-commerce requirements are extremely disproportionate. At present, the vast majority of network enterprises are created by private capital, the capital market is located in the service of state-owned enterprises, the network is basically closed to enterprises. Venture capital system is also unsound, the official-led venture capital system is not compatible with the essential requirements of venture capital, the real need for venture capital enterprises are difficult to obtain support.
In the face of e-commerce, the service industry reacted the fastest, more rapidly to e-commerce, the traditional manufacturing industry also began to recognize and gradually implement e-commerce plans, the primary industry also try e-commerce. Specifically, e-commerce in the retail sector is growing the fastest. Digital products are the most suitable for direct sales through the network, such as e-books, digital audio-visual products, software products, electronic newspapers and magazines. Some websites have already realized online sales of e-books, CDs and records. The financial services industry is the most widely used information technology industry, financial e-commerce has been from the early information-based services to the transition to real electronic transactions. Securities e-commerce and online insurance agents are very promising. Tourism e-commerce sites have opened dozens of traditional travel agencies have also touched the net, but the whole industry is still in its infancy. The traditional manufacturing industry is at the forefront of enterprises began to implement e-commerce programs. Home appliance industry in the e-commerce with a big deal, such as Haier, Chunlan, the United States and other enterprises, not the general "touch the net". The automobile manufacturing industry has specific actions, the chemical industry is not willing to lag behind. Agriculture is the lowest level of information technology industry, but precisely agriculture contains huge business opportunities, the development of e-commerce in the field of agriculture to promote the pace of industrialization of agriculture plays a huge role.
Three, the development of international e-commerce status quo
E-commerce on the traditional business activities has brought a huge impact, it is a prominent symbol of increased trade opportunities, reduce trade costs, simplify the trade process, improve trade efficiency. E-commerce has greatly changed the business model. It has led to the change of economic structure. In developed countries, the development of e-commerce unprecedented prosperity, trading through the Internet has become a trend.
The future development of e-commerce in China will show the following six trends:
1). Vertical deepening trend. E-commerce infrastructure will be perfected, supporting the environment gradually tends to standardize the depth of the development of e-commerce enterprises to further expand the depth of personal involvement in e-commerce will also be expanded.
2). Personalization trend. The emergence, development and popularization of the Internet itself is a liberation of the traditional economic society of individuals, personalized information needs and personalized demand for goods will become the direction of development, consumers will be involved in personal preferences to the design and manufacture of goods in the process. For all individual consumer-oriented e-commerce activities, the provision of diversified more personalized services than traditional business enterprises is the key factor in determining future success or failure.
3). Specialization trend. First, the trend of specialization for individual consumers. In the next few years, China's online population will remain in the middle and high-income level of the population, they have strong purchasing power, higher education, consumer personalization requirements are relatively strong. Therefore, to provide a one-stop service vertical website and a certain type of products and services of the professional website has greater potential for development. Secondly, the trend of specialization for enterprise customers. BtoB e-commerce model, based on the large industry as a professional e-commerce platform has a promising future.
4). Internationalization trend. China's e-commerce enterprises will be with the international e-commerce environment of standardization and improvement of the world gradually. China's enterprises can thus with the developed countries really stand in the same starting line, change our country in the market economy track of the latter disadvantage for the latter advantage. E-commerce for China's small and medium-sized enterprises to develop international markets, the use of foreign resources is a favorable time. At the same time, foreign e-commerce enterprises will strive to develop the Chinese market.
5). Regionalization trend. China's unbalanced regional economic development and urban-rural dual structure reflected in the economic development of the ladder, the hierarchy of income structure is very obvious. In the future for a long time, the online population will still be mainly in large cities, medium-sized cities and economically developed coastal areas, BtoC e-commerce model of regional characteristics is very obvious. This model of e-commerce enterprises in the resource planning, distribution system construction, marketing and other aspects must take full account of this reality, to take a focused regionalization strategy, in order to most effectively expand the scale and effectiveness of online marketing.
6). Integration trend. E-commerce will be the initial full bloom towards a new integration, one is the merger between similar sites. At present, a large number of Web sites belong to the "duplication of construction", positioning the same or similar, business content convergence, intense competition can only be the result of a small number of companies eventually win. Second, the complementary merger between different categories of websites. Domestic e-commerce enterprises in the leading position in the resources, brand, customer scale and other aspects of the advantage is relative, foreign famous e-commerce enterprises in the process of expansion will inevitably take the acquisition strategy, the main mode will be complementary acquisition. Third, strategic alliance. Each site is always limited in terms of resources, customer demand is all-round, so different types of websites in the form of strategic alliances to collaborate with each other is also inevitable.
Fifth, the relationship between e-commerce and logistics
1, e-commerce in the "flow"
E-commerce is the essence of business, the core content of business is the transaction of goods, and commodity transactions will involve four aspects: the transfer of ownership of commodities, monetary payments, access to information and application, the transfer of goods themselves. application, and the transfer of the commodity itself. That is, business flow, capital flow, information flow and logistics. The information flow includes the provision of commodity information, promotion and marketing, technical support, after-sales service, etc., but also includes such commercial trade documents as inquiry form, quotation, payment notice, transfer notice, etc., and also includes the payment ability and creditworthiness of the counterparty. Business flow refers to the commodity in the purchase and sale of goods between the transaction and the transfer of ownership of goods in the movement process, specifically refers to a series of activities of commodity trading. Financial flow mainly refers to the process of transferring funds, including the process of payment, transferring funds and so on. In the e-commerce environment, all four components are different from the traditional situation. The processing of the three streams of commerce, capital flow and information flow can be realized through computers and network communication devices. Logistics, as one of the most special of the four flows, refers to the process of flow of material entities, specifically transportation, storage, distribution, loading and unloading, storage, logistics information management and other various activities. For a few commodities and services, they can be distributed directly through network transmission, such as various electronic publications and information consulting services. For most commodities and services, logistics still have to be transmitted by physical means.
2The relationship between e-commerce and logistics
E-commerce is a fundamental revolution in the field of business, however, the actual situation of its development in China is far from being as good as expected, in which the lagging behind of the logistics capacity is a major reason.
In the past, people did not know enough about the importance of logistics in e-commerce, and they did not know enough about the changes that should take place in the e-commerce environment, and they thought that for most of the commodities and services, the logistics could still be done through the traditional distribution channels. However, with the further promotion and application of e-commerce, the lagging logistics capability is becoming more and more obvious as a constraint to its development. The importance of logistics on e-commerce activities has been increasingly noticed. But what exactly is the relationship between e-commerce and logistics, but few people to explore. At present, the relationship between the most macro grasp of a point of view is "logistics is an important part of e-commerce". Of course, it has some truth, but not exactly. This is based on the following two reasons: First, the most essential success of e-commerce is to informatize the business process, information processing electronically. E-commerce, in short, is the sale and purchase of goods or services on the Internet. This kind of buying and selling is the buying and selling of ownership of goods or services, that is, the flow of commerce. Some people think that business flow depends on logistics support, so it is said that "logistics is an important part of e-commerce". However, the relationship between logistics and business flow is not just a supportive relationship, such as waste recycling and returns are two examples. For the relationship between logistics and business flow, it may be better to say: logistics and business flow, that is, the essence of e-commerce, is the corresponding relationship, in other words, is the logistics and e-commerce is the corresponding relationship. Secondly, the network economy will be business flow, capital flow informationization, electronic information flow, business, advertising, ordering, purchasing, payment, authentication and other physical and transaction processing virtualization, informationization, can be said to be the virtual economy. Logistics is the location of the entity transfer, said "real" is "virtual" component, how to see is also inappropriate, and the relationship is said to be "virtual and real corresponding" may be more appropriate.
Here to add, the flow of commerce can include services (here the "service" does not include logistics services) the transfer of ownership, and the real "delivery" of services, that is, consumption, is not the content of the logistics, but this is also a kind of But this is also a kind of "real and virtual corresponding" relationship, the service consumption and physical displacement together, and e-commerce called "real and virtual corresponding" is really appropriate. As can be seen from the above discussion, the relationship between logistics and e-commerce is extremely close. Logistics is very important to the realization of e-commerce, e-commerce on the impact of logistics is also certainly extremely huge. Logistics in the future development and the impact of e-commerce is inextricably linked, can be understood in this way: the contradiction of logistics itself to promote its development, and e-commerce provides the means to resolve this contradiction; in turn, e-commerce itself contradictions in the resolution of the need for logistics to provide the means for a new economic model requires a new logistics model.
3. The impact of e-commerce on logistics
Because of the close relationship between e-commerce and logistics, e-commerce, this revolution is bound to have a great impact on logistics. The impact is all-round, from the status of the logistics industry to the logistics organization model, and then to the logistics operations, functional links, will be under the influence of e-commerce has undergone tremendous changes.
