In 2016, the recovery of the world economy was still slow and uneven, international trade and investment were weak, and growth momentum was insufficient. Affected by the rise of trade protectionism, the intensification of the trend against economic globalization, and the political and economic difficulties in the euro zone, global productivity was reduced, innovation was blocked, and the world economy was still in a "low growth trap". In 2016, the world economic recovery was still slow and uneven, international trade and investment were weak, and the growth momentum was insufficient. Affected by the rise of trade protectionism, the intensification of the trend against economic globalization, the political and economic difficulties in the euro area, global productivity decreased, innovation was blocked, and the world economy was still in a low growth trap. Against the backdrop of the sluggish world economy, China's economy is in a unique position. 2016 is the first year of the decisive stage of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way in China, and it is also a crucial year to promote supply side structural reform. p>
1. Highlights of economic growth: achieve the goal of quadrupling GDP in advance
in 2016, China's economy operated smoothly, and the annual GDP growth rate is expected to be about 6.7%, which is consistent with the expected goal at the beginning of the year. This speed is in line with the basic characteristics of speed change, structural optimization and power transformation under the new normal of economic development, which has laid a solid foundation for China to move from the upper middle-income stage to the high-income stage, and provided a good macroeconomic environment and conditions for improving the quality of economic growth, promoting the optimization of economic structure, and promoting energy conservation and emission reduction. From the perspective of international comparison, China is still one of the countries with the highest economic growth rate in the world. The economic growth rate of about 6.7% is much higher than that of about 1.5% in the United States, about 0.6% in Japan and about 1.5% in the euro zone. It should be noted that China's total economic output has exceeded 100000. Richard bell, the development manager, said that for every 1 percentage point increase on this base, the GDP increment will exceed 100billion US dollars, equivalent to 1.8 percentage points of economic growth in 2010. In other words, the GDP increment brought by the current 6.5% growth rate is equivalent to the GDP increment brought by the growth rate of more than 10% in 2010. From this perspective, we can't help but say that China created a dazzling economic growth bright spot in the sluggish world economy in 2016
it is worth noting that China's GDP in 2016 was about 4.22 times that of 2000, and the goal of quadrupling the GDP by 2020 compared with the development of 3D printing materials for jet fusion 3D printers in 2000, proposed by the 16th CPC National Congress, was achieved four years in advance. This is the biggest highlight of China's economic development this year. It is estimated that China's per capita GDP will also reach more than four times that of 2000 in 2017, and the goal of quadrupling the per capita GDP of 2000 by 2020, as proposed by the 17th CPC National Congress, will be achieved three years in advance. This laid a good foundation for achieving the goal of doubling the GDP and per capita income of urban and rural residents by 2020 compared with 2010, which was put forward at the 18th CPC National Congress. It is equivalent to two insurances for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way
2. Highlights of structural upgrading: transition to the post industrial era
in 2016, China's economic structure was further optimized and became an obvious highlight. During the 12th Five Year Plan period, China's service industry has made great progress. By 2015, the added value of the service industry accounted for 50.5% of GDP, exceeding half for the first time. In the first three quarters of 2016, this proportion rose to 52.8%, and its contribution to economic growth increased from 54.1% in 2015 to 58.5%, the highest contribution rate of the service industry to economic growth since the founding of new China. China's economy is undergoing a major transformation from an era dominated by industry to an era dominated by service industry, that is, the post industrial era. China will soon have a high-quality, diversified and refined lifestyle service industry, and a productive service industry that is financial intensive, knowledge intensive, science and technology intensive, and human capital intensive, which is one of the important structural characteristics of a more developed economy. At the same time, China's industrial structure is also constantly optimized and upgraded, and the growth rate of high-tech industry and equipment manufacturing industry is significantly faster than that of general industry. In the first three quarters of 2016, the contribution rate of added value of high-tech manufacturing to industrial growth reached more than 20%. The added value, export volume and export added value of China's high-tech industry have exceeded that of the United States, ranking first in the world, indicating that China is rapidly upgrading to the largest country in high-tech manufacturing. The highlight of structural upgrading in 2016 is the major achievements made by the solid progress of supply side structural reform, which shows that China's old and new growth drivers are accelerating the transformation
3. Consumption highlights: the scale of the domestic market ranks second in the world.
consumption has become the biggest driving force of China's economic growth. After 2010, the proportion of China's final consumption expenditure in GDP continued to rise, rising to 52.4% in 2015. In the first three quarters of 2016, the proportion of final consumption expenditure in GDP further increased to about 55%, and its contribution to GDP growth increased rapidly from 66.4% in 2015 to 71%. In 2016, the scale of China's consumer goods market ranked second in the world, and the final consumption expenditure accounted for more than 8% of the world's total consumption, significantly narrowing the gap with the United States. The growth rate of the domestic consumer market is among the highest in the world. In the first three quarters of 2016, the nominal retail sales of goods in the whole society increased by 10.4% year-on-year, and the actual growth rate after deducting price factors was 9.8%, which is more than 3 percentage points higher than the economic growth rate. It can be said that consumption has become the ballast stone of China's economy, and the effect of stimulating economic growth is more significant, which also marks that the role of economic growth in improving the well-being of people's livelihood has been greatly enhanced. China's economic growth model has shifted from investment driven to consumption driven

China's e-commerce radiates the world and is realizing global buying and national selling. Second, employment dividends. The digital economy connects people, effectively promotes entrepreneurship and self-employed business, and creates a large number of employment opportunities. Third, service dividends. The digital economy connects the government, and the rapid popularization of E-government has prompted the government to provide public information and public services with higher quality, more convenient and lower cost

They are both market players and job creators
the quotient value (in KGF · m/cm2) obtained by dividing the impact energy consumed by the test bar by the cross-sectional area of the notch root of the test bar is defined as the impact toughness (AK). 7. Highlights of income increase and poverty reduction: the per capita income has increased rapidly, and the population out of poverty has set a world record again
with the steady economic development, the living standards and quality of our people have generally improved. In 2016, the per capita disposable income of urban and rural residents in China continued to grow. After deducting price factors, it increased by 5.7% and 6.5% respectively in the first three quarters, making it one of the countries with the fastest growth in household income in the world.

Moreover, the gap between the level of basic public services in poor areas and the national average tends to narrow. In particular, the implementation of new measures such as poverty alleviation through tourism, such as the development of rural tourism according to local conditions, the vigorous development of leisure agriculture, and the active development of characteristic cultural tourism, has brought the aluminum alloy cable products on the market, which are about 60% lower than the national standard copper cable price, closer the distance between people of different income levels, and promoted the mutual benefit and win-win situation in the first and second rich regions
8. Highlights of ecological and environmental protection: green development accelerates and environmental quality tends to improve
in 2016, China made important progress in energy conservation and emission reduction.
