Ideas and strategies to enhance the self-control ability of supply chain

  Supply chain security has become a highly concerned issue in all countries, and it is also an urgent task to realize the independent control of China’s supply chain.
  Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice for building a new development pattern, which is of great significance for unswervingly building a manufacturing power.
  To enhance the self-control ability of supply chain, we need to take a multi-pronged approach, and pay attention to coordinating and handling the relationship with global division of labor and cooperation.
  The Central Economic Work Conference laid out the key tasks for 2021, and clearly pointed out that "enhancing the self-control ability of the industrial chain supply chain" and "the security and stability of the industrial chain supply chain is the basis for building a new development pattern". So, as far as China’s supply chain is concerned, what problems and risks need to be dealt with? Why is it urgent to improve self-control ability? How to take multiple measures to ensure the safety of supply chain? These are all important topics that need to be studied and solved urgently at present.
  Pay close attention to supply chain security.
  Generally speaking, the supply chain mainly refers to the process of multinational companies purchasing raw materials around the world and combining them into finished products through complex processes. Multinational companies engaged in production and business activities in countries all over the world need to effectively manage the supply chain all over the world, that is, plan, coordinate, operate, control and optimize the whole supply chain system, and deliver the products needed by customers to the right place at the right time according to the right quantity, quality and state, and optimize the total cost.
  In this process, multinational companies have formed complex supply chains and networks by arranging supply chains around the world. As a part of the global supply chain, the supply chains of various countries are linked by interests, which influence, depend on and interact with each other. Because it is difficult for a country to effectively control the supply chain of other countries, and the supply chain operation may get out of control, the supply chain security has become a highly concerned issue for all countries.
  In recent years, China has also encountered some problems such as poor industrial operation caused by the failure or even fracture of supply chain operation. Supply chain risks mainly come from technical protection and technical barriers in some developed countries. For example, once some countries find that a high-tech research and development in China has reached a key node, they begin to strictly limit the supply of technology. Some countries can control the global supply chain of an industry and become "chain owners" because of their technological or resource advantages. With the help of the status of "chain owner", they will lay out the supply chain in other countries with their own needs as the center, transfer the supply chain links with low profit margins, consolidate their dominant position at the highest end of the value chain, and use their control to crack down on potential competitors, thus making other countries in the supply chain in a relatively passive position and facing greater supply chain risks. In recent years, China has been frequently suppressed by individual "chain owners". Because some products in China are still in the process of processing and assembly in the supply chain, some core technologies are still subject to people, and there are shortcomings, which directly leads to the "stuck neck". In addition, the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic has also prompted some countries to take measures to move some key supply chains back to their own countries or relocate them. Therefore, it has become a top priority to realize the independent control of China’s supply chain.
  Realizing self-control is an inevitable choice.
  We should have a correct understanding of the self-control of supply chain. "Autonomy" means that China can play a leading role in key supply chains; "Controllable" means that although China cannot dominate some supply chains, it has great control and influence. The purpose of realizing self-control of supply chain is to ensure the smooth operation of national economy and realize economic security and industrial security.
  Generally speaking, indicators to measure the security of a country’s supply chain include toughness and elasticity. Resilience means that the supply chain has strong enough anti-strike ability; Elasticity refers to the ability of supply chain to recover quickly from accidental damage and run continuously in the face of uncertain environment. Realizing "autonomous control" means that the supply chain has good toughness and elasticity, and can maintain or quickly resume normal operation under external shocks.
  Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice to build a new development pattern. Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promoting each other means building an autonomous and controllable supply chain in China, that is, from raw materials and equipment to intermediate products and finished products to consumer purchases, all these links are autonomous and controllable. As the second largest economy in the world, China cannot allow its supply chain to be dominated. At the same time, China has a huge domestic demand market and efficient industrial clusters, which is an important guarantee to realize the independent and controllable supply chain. China must build an independent and controllable supply chain to provide important support for accelerating the construction of a new development pattern.
  Realizing the self-control of supply chain is an inevitable choice for building a manufacturing power. A strong manufacturing country requires not only a large-scale manufacturing industry, complete industrial sectors and high technology content, but also a sufficiently safe and efficient supply chain. It can be seen from the suppression of China’s high-tech supply chain by some developed countries in recent years that there are some weak links in China’s manufacturing supply chain, including technical shortcomings. Therefore, to unswervingly build a manufacturing power, we must build an independent, controllable and highly secure supply chain.
  Take multiple measures at the same time to enhance self-control ability
  To enhance the self-control ability of the industrial chain supply chain, we should take measures to promote the completion of short boards and forging long boards as a whole, and implement the industrial base reconstruction project in accordance with the requirements put forward by the Central Economic Work Conference, and intensify our work.
  Find out the base and fill in the shortcomings. Relevant departments should be organized to make a thorough survey of the supply chain of China’s high-tech industries and other key industries, list the weak links according to the technology gap and the pressure from competitors, and list the possible alternative technologies. For key supply chain links and "stuck neck" technology, lock the shortcomings one by one, focus on tackling key problems and transform research and development results as soon as possible to expand the technology spillover effect; For some key industries, speed up the establishment of independent and controllable supply chains to ensure the safety of supply chains.
  Give full play to advantages and forge long boards. In the global supply chain, China’s manufacturing industry has the competitiveness that can not be ignored, that is, the "long board", for example, it has a strong manufacturing industrial cluster and technological advantages suitable for China’s industry and market characteristics. Measures such as improving the business environment should be taken to further develop these "long board" advantages and encourage enterprises to become bigger and stronger in their advantageous fields.
  Lay a solid foundation and improve your ability. The overall competitiveness of a country’s supply chain must be based on a solid industrial foundation. We should establish an evaluation system of industrial basic ability, accurately grasp and evaluate the present situation of China’s industrial chain supply chain and key technologies, and determine scientific and reasonable upgrading goals; In-depth implementation of industrial base reengineering project, clear focus, classification organization and implementation; To strengthen the construction of basic R&D system of common technology, we can consider adopting different organizational forms according to the characteristics of different common technologies.
  Pay attention to coordinating and handling the two major relationships.
  With the deepening of economic globalization, the international division of labor is becoming more and more complicated, and the dependence of supply chain between countries will become greater and greater. Therefore, to improve the self-control ability of supply chain, we should also pay attention to coordinating and handling the two major relationships.
  The first is the relationship between supply chain autonomy and global division of labor and cooperation. Autonomous controllability can only be "autonomous" and "controllable" to a certain extent, and it is difficult to cover all links in the supply chain, so we should combine autonomous controllability with global supply chain cooperation. For some "stuck neck" links, we should have certain technical reserves in our country and have the ability to concentrate resources to achieve technological breakthroughs; At the same time, based on the principle of mutual benefit and win-win, we should establish closer supply chain cooperation by signing free trade agreements and investment agreements with other economic and trade partners to form complementary advantages and improve the stability and security of international supply chain cooperation.
  The second is the relationship between self-control and upgrading of supply chain. For China, in addition to realizing the self-control of the supply chain, it is also necessary to vigorously enhance the competitiveness of the industrial chain supply chain and its position in the global value chain through technological innovation. From the enterprise level, we should vigorously carry forward the entrepreneurial spirit and promote innovation in raw materials, technology, products, markets and production organization. From the government level, we should vigorously consolidate the basic research links in the innovation chain of Science and Technology, make long-term planning and continue to invest. At the same time, it is necessary to promote a better combination of effective markets and promising governments.

More than 91 cities have issued detailed rules for online car-hailing, and whether fair competition reviews have been forgotten

  The State Council document requires that policies and measures should not be introduced without a fair competition review.

  So far, at least 91 cities have issued detailed regulations on ride-hailing, but no administrative agency has taken the initiative to say whether a fair competition review has been carried out. Will the State Council’s policy of fair competition censorship be forgotten?

  On June 6, at a special seminar held by the Competition Law Research Center of Peking University, participants, including several members of the Expert Advisory Group of the State Council Anti-Monopoly Commission, raised the same question.

  The fair competition review is a legal process

  Administrative organs shall conduct fair competition review when formulating rules, normative documents and other policies and measures related to the economic activities of market entities, such as market access, industrial development, and qualification standards. This is a new system established by the "Opinions of the State Council on Establishing Fair Competition Censorship in the Construction of the Market System" (hereinafter referred to as Document No. 34) in June 2016.

  The system has been in place since July 2016 in provincial-level governments and their subordinate departments, and has been gradually rolled out to municipal and county-level governments and their subordinate departments since 2017. Article 34 requires that "those who have not conducted a fair competition review shall not be introduced."

  In order to prevent the administrative organs from introducing policies and measures to exclude or restrict competition, Circular 34 listed 18 review criteria, known as "18 inhibitions", such as: unreasonable and discriminatory entry and exit conditions shall not be set, foreign and imported goods and services shall not be restricted from entering the local market, and the price level of goods and services subject to market-regulated prices shall not be illegally interfered with.

  Online car-hailing details collision "18 no"

  In comparison with the above "18 no", the Peking University Competition Law Research Center formed a nine-person research team to analyze the detailed rules of online car-hailing issued by 77 cities above the prefecture level, and found that there are widespread violations of the "18 no" provisions. If there are few violations, one or two violations; if there are many, all violations.

  The requirements for vehicle registration and driver household registration in the local implementation rules restrict the entry of foreign goods into the local market, affect the free flow of goods, and form a regional blockade;

  The restrictions on wheelbase, displacement, length, width and age will make it impossible for some brands and models of vehicles to continue to engage in online car-hailing operations. As the largest fixed-cost input for online car-hailing self-operators, the price elasticity is extremely weak. Restrictions on models and vehicle ages will significantly increase the operating costs and exit costs of operators and potential operators in the market.

  Limiting the price of online car-hailing has led to the "exclusion" of certain car brands or series that are positioned as cheap cars or focus on cost-effectiveness, essentially resulting in discriminatory or differentiated treatment of certain car manufacturers.

  Nearly half of the cities have implemented market-adjusted prices while giving local governments the power to implement government-guided prices when necessary. And the "18 No" clearly states that the price level of goods and services subject to market-adjusted prices shall not be illegally interfered with.

  "Exceptions" are allowed but the reasons should be given

  Crashing "18 no" does not amount to illegal, because Article 34 provides for exceptions. Some policy measures can be implemented under certain circumstances even if they have the effect of excluding and restricting competition.

  However, for exceptional circumstances, Article 34 stipulates stricter application conditions, which can only be applied to the following situations and cannot be expanded without authorization: 1. Safeguarding national economic security, cultural security or involving national defense construction; 2. To achieve social security purposes such as poverty alleviation and development, disaster relief and relief; 3. To achieve social and public interests such as energy conservation and protection of ecological environment; 4. Other circumstances stipulated by laws and administrative regulations.

  At the same time, Document No. 34 has special requirements for exceptional circumstances: it should be stated that the relevant policy measures are indispensable to the realization of the policy purpose, and will not seriously exclude or restrict market competition, and the implementation period should be clearly defined. In addition, even if it is an exception, the policy-making authority should evaluate the implementation effect of the relevant policy measures year by year. Policies and measures that have expired or failed to achieve the expected effect should be stopped or adjusted in a timely manner.

  Xiao Jiangping, director of the Center for Competition Law at Peking University, pointed out that so far, no agency that sets the rules for online ride-hailing has admitted to the application of "exceptional circumstances", nor has it taken the initiative to explain the reasons for the "exception".

  According to public media reports, after receiving the relevant information disclosure application, the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission replied that the Beijing online car-hailing rules conducted a fair competition review. The review "took into account the current situation of the city of Beijing, the requirements of the carrying capacity of the population and the positioning of the city’s development". This reason is closer to the third of the above-mentioned exceptions: "Save energy resources and protect the ecological environment." But the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission did not explicitly state that the "exception provisions" of Article 34 were applied.

  Should the policy-making organ take the initiative to announce whether a fair competition review has been conducted and the results of the review? At what stage should it be announced? Shi Jianzhong, an advisory member of the expert group of the State Anti-Monopoly Commission and a professor at China University of Political Science and Law, pointed out in an interview with the Legal Daily earlier that the policy-making organ should disclose whether a fair competition review has been conducted. Circular 34 requires that when conducting a fair competition review, the opinions of interested parties should be heard, or opinions should be publicly solicited from the public. Accordingly, the policy-making organ should disclose relevant information on the fair competition review before the official introduction of the policy measures.

  But there are also opinions that Circular 34 does not require policy-making organs to take the initiative to publish fair competition review information. However, according to the government information disclosure regulations, policy-making organs should disclose the application after receiving the application.

  Xiao Jiangping said that so far, there is no active disclosure of fair competition review information by any online car-hailing detailed rules. Fair competition censorship requires policy-making organs to self-censor the policies and measures they formulate, and policies and measures that have not been reviewed for fair competition shall not be introduced. However, it is not difficult to see through the sorting of the various access conditions stipulated in the local online car-hailing detailed rules that the introduction of the online car-hailing detailed rules may not really conduct fair competition review.

  The implementation of the system requires procedural constraints

  The implementation of a system is inseparable from the guarantee mechanism, especially the law enforcement supervision and accountability mechanism. In order to ensure the implementation of fair competition censorship, Document No. 34 requires strengthening law enforcement supervision and strengthening accountability:

  "Any unit or individual has the right to report policies and measures suspected of violating fair competition review standards, and the relevant departments shall deal with them in a timely manner. Those suspected of violating the Antimonopoly Act of the People’s Republic of China shall be investigated and verified by the anti-monopoly law enforcement agency in accordance with the law, and shall make recommendations to the relevant higher authorities. The case situation and handling suggestions shall be made public to the public. Policy-making organs shall promptly correct policies and measures that exclude and restrict competition, and maintain a market order of fair competition."

  "Local governments and departments that fail to conduct fair competition reviews or violate fair competition review standards and introduce policies and measures, as well as fail to correct relevant policies and measures in a timely manner, shall be dealt with seriously after verification in accordance with the law. If the relevant personnel need to be held accountable for party discipline and government discipline, such as dereliction of duty, the relevant situation shall be promptly transferred to the discipline inspection and supervision organs."

  In the opinion of the experts attending the meeting, these regulations are too principled. "Who should I report to? Should I give feedback on the investigation and punishment results? Is the agency that accepts the report a law enforcement agency or a joint meeting? What are the powers of the joint meeting and what are the differences between the review powers of the local people’s congress? These must be made clear. We must improve the procedures and clarify a reporting review mechanism." Xu Guangyao, a professor at Nankai University Law School and an advisory member of the expert group of the State Anti-Monopoly Commission, said.

  Liu Jifeng, a professor at China University of Political Science and Law, agrees: "Whether public competition censorship can be carried out well, the procedural system is the most important."

  Document 34 also has a plan for this: "The National Development and Reform Commission, the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council, the Ministry of Commerce, and the State Administration for Industry and Commerce should work with relevant departments to study and draft detailed rules for the implementation of fair competition reviews, and further refine the content, procedures, and methods of fair competition reviews."

  The Legal Daily reporter learned from the seminar that the "Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Fair Competition Censorship (Interim) " have been soliciting opinions for many rounds and have responded to the above questions.
