Beijing’s Economists Push a New Playbook: Diversify, Rebuild Confidence and Green the Supply Chain

At NetEase’s 2026 economists’ conference in Beijing, officials, academics and business leaders argued that China’s next growth phase requires diversified, symbiotic policy: bolster household confidence with social and fiscal measures, pivot toward consumption and services, manage US trade frictions pragmatically, and accelerate credible green supply‑chain transition. The forum stressed that technology and AI pose both productivity opportunities and risks to human skills, while corporate ESG work faces significant implementation hurdles.
