Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation is the biggest intersection of the interests of China and Japan, and it is an important factor to close Sino-Japanese relations. 1972 since the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, the economic and trade relations between the two countries have developed in the direction of mutual benefit and win-win, maintaining a good momentum on the whole and promoting the all-round development of bilateral relations. Practice has proved that striving for mutually beneficial economic and trade cooperation and common development between China and Japan is the only correct choice that conforms to the fundamental interests of the two countries.

Strengthening Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation is an objective need for the complementary advantages and common development of the two countries. Today's world is an open one. The development of China cannot be separated from the world, and the development of the world cannot be separated from China. Opening to the outside world is a basic national policy of our country. As a developing country, in order to accelerate the development of reform, opening up and modernization, we must maintain a good external environment and actively promote friendly cooperation with other countries in economic development. Japan is the second largest economic power in the world after the United States, with advantages in capital and technology, the third largest trading partner of China, the third largest source of foreign investment and the main source of imported technology, and occupies an important position in the pattern of China's opening to the outside world. China's huge market, active business opportunities, rich labor resources and intellectual resources are particularly dependent on Japanese economic development. In recent years, Japanese exports to China have risen sharply, and China has become the fastest growing export market in Japan. After the total bilateral trade volume first broke through the 1000 billion dollar mark in 2002, it reached more than 654.38+060 billion dollars in 2004. The rapid development of Sino-Japanese economic and trade relations has stimulated the economic growth of the two countries and promoted their extensive cooperation in the fields of science and technology, education and tourism. However, in recent days, China's wrong words and deeds on a series of issues, such as history, have hurt the feelings of the Japanese people and aroused strong dissatisfaction among the Japanese people. Therefore, it is completely understandable that some people in the society put forward the idea of "boycotting Japanese goods", but it is totally inappropriate to do so. Under the situation that the international economy is interdependent and "you have me and I have you", blindly boycotting Japanese goods will harm the interests of producers and consumers of both sides, which is not conducive to both sides to learn from each other's strong points, and it is also not conducive to our good implementation of the opening-up strategy of "bringing in" and "going out", which will ultimately damage the overall interests of China and affect the overall development of China. We should base ourselves on safeguarding the fundamental interests of our own people and actively promote the healthy development of Sino-Japanese economic and trade relations from the strategic height of promoting reform, opening up and modernization.

Strengthening Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation is conducive to promoting the healthy development of Sino-Japanese relations. Mutually beneficial economic and trade cooperation is an important basis for developing political relations between the two countries, and stable and healthy political relations are an important condition for promoting economic and trade cooperation between the two countries. Under the new situation, the complementary advantages of Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation have not been weakened, but have become more prominent; The intersection of interests between China and Japan in regional and international affairs has not decreased, but has increased. Strengthening Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation is more practical today than in the past for developing long-term and stable Sino-Japanese friendly and cooperative relations. Regrettably, however, Japan's actions on issues such as history and Taiwan Province Province have violated its commitments and deviated from the political foundation of Sino-Japanese relations, which has put the current Sino-Japanese relations in a difficult situation. If this disharmonious political relationship continues, it will inevitably hurt the development of economic and trade cooperation between the two countries. The Japanese side should handle the contradictions and problems that affect the smooth development of Sino-Japanese relations with a serious and prudent attitude, put its commitments into practical actions, and create the necessary conditions and a good atmosphere for promoting the development of economic and trade relations between the two countries.

Strengthening Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation conforms to the trend of the times of economic globalization and regional economic cooperation. At present, the pace of economic globalization has obviously accelerated, and the mutual influence and interdependence of countries and regions in the world in the economic field are deepening. Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation has gradually formed a situation in which you have me and I have you, reaching the point where mutual interests are inseparable. The Asia-Pacific region in 2 1 century is the most dynamic region in the world. With the rapid economic development of Asia-Pacific countries, the voice of establishing economic alliance is growing. As two important countries in the world and Asia, China and Japan should deeply understand the great significance of strengthening bilateral economic and trade cooperation, strive to coordinate and solve the contradictions and problems between the two sides, and make due efforts to realize regional economic cooperation and the prosperity and development of the world economy.

"The scenery should be long and eye-catching." The good situation of Sino-Japanese economic and trade relations is hard-won, which deserves to be cherished and carefully maintained. Both China and Japan should be far-sighted, take practical measures to reverse the current difficult situation of Sino-Japanese relations as soon as possible, actively promote Sino-Japanese economic and trade cooperation and exchanges, and strive to promote the stable and healthy development of Sino-Japanese relations.

Second, economic and trade relations.

(A) Sino-Japanese trade

Japan is China's main trading partner. By 2003, Japan has been the largest trading partner of China for 1 1 year. In 2004, it was overtaken by the European Union and the United States and relegated to the third place.

In 2007, Sino-Japanese trade maintained a rapid growth momentum, with the total import and export volume reaching US$ 236.02 billion, up 13.9% year-on-year. Among them, my export to Japan was US$ 65.438+00.207 billion, a year-on-year increase of 654.38+065.438+0.4%; I imported US$ 65.438+03.395 billion from Japan, up 654.38+05.8% year-on-year. China's deficit is $365,438+$88 million.

(B) Japanese investment in China

Japan is my second largest source of foreign investment. In 2007, the number of Japanese direct investment projects in China was 19 14, down 20.6% year-on-year, and the actually paid-in amount was $3.59 billion, down 20.8% year-on-year. By the end of 2007, the total number of Japanese investment projects in China was 39,628, with the actual amount of $665,438+$720 million.

(C) Financial cooperation between Japan and China.

1, yen loan

Japan's yen loan to China began on 1979, and both parties agreed to end the yen loan to China before 2008. From June 5438 to February 2007, the foreign ministers of the two countries signed the last exchange of notes on Japanese yen loans to China. So far, the Japanese government has promised to provide Japanese yen loans of about 3.31648.6 billion yen (about 3.3 billion US dollars) to the China government. As of September 2007, I actually used about 2,520.733 billion yen in loans for the construction of 255 projects. Japanese yen loans to China account for about 50% of China's loans from foreign governments.

2. Free assistance

By the end of 2007, China * * * had received Japanese free aid totaling1398.25 billion yen for the construction of the 14 1 project, involving environmental protection, education, poverty alleviation, medical care and other fields. In May 2008, the two sides signed an aid agreement for 2008, and Japan will provide 577 million yen in aid to China this year.

3. "Black" loan

1988 and 1994, the Export-Import Bank of Japan provided "black-lettered loans" to China people twice, amounting to140 billion yen.

Three. Cultural exchange and cooperation

Since the founding of New China, China and Japan have maintained folk cultural exchanges. The main forms are cultural performances, art and cultural relics exhibitions, academic and personnel exchanges, etc. Among them, a series of important cultural exchange activities such as 1972 Shanghai Dance Theatre's performance in Japan have made positive contributions to the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan.

197965438+In February, the two countries signed the Sino-Japanese Cultural Exchange Agreement, which set the goal of developing cultural, educational, academic and sports exchanges between the two countries. Thanks to the joint efforts of both sides, China-Belgium cultural exchanges and cooperation have developed in an all-round way, showing a new situation in which officials and people coexist and channels and forms are diverse. Its scope, scale, quantity, frequent activities and rich contents are in the leading position among countries with cultural exchanges with China. The cultural exchange between China and Japan has the following characteristics: 1 .* * * The cultural heritage is profound, and the exchange of traditional oriental cultures such as cultural relics, calligraphy, poetry, ink painting and drama (Beijing Opera and Kabuki) is unique. Second, non-governmental exchanges occupy the main body. According to statistics, at present, folk cultural exchanges account for more than 95% of the total cultural exchanges.

In recent years, the exchanges and cooperation between the two sides in emerging cultural industries such as commercial performances, music, film and television, animation and games have flourished. At present, Japan has become one of China's most important cultural and trading partners.

In recent years, China and Japan have held many large-scale cultural exchange activities. From 65438 to 0999, I held the' 99 Japan Tour in Japan, and the Japanese side held the "Japan-China Cultural Friendship Year" in China. On the 30th anniversary of the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan in 2002, China and Japan jointly held the "China-Japan Culture Year". 2007 is the "China-Japan Cultural and Sports Exchange Year", and more than 300 activities were held throughout the year, which achieved good social effects. 2008 is the year of friendly exchanges between Chinese and Japanese youth. In May 2008, the two sides signed an agreement to establish a cultural center between China and Japan.

Fourth, scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation.

After the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, the two sides signed the Sino-Japanese Intergovernmental Agreement on Scientific and Technological Cooperation in 1980, and established an intergovernmental scientific and technological cooperation relationship. Since then, the scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation between the two countries have developed rapidly, and the scale has been continuously expanded, forming a multi-form, multi-channel and government-civilian situation. Especially in the application of technical cooperation, it has made remarkable achievements and played a positive role in China's social and economic development and scientific and technological progress.

At present, the scientific and technological cooperation between Chinese and Japanese governments mainly includes: cooperation under the agreement on scientific and technological cooperation between Chinese and Japanese governments, and counterpart cooperation between government departments of the two countries (including cooperation agreements signed between departments). ), through the channels of Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and China-Japan Nuclear Energy Cooperation Agreement. In addition, many departments, localities, research institutions and universities of the two countries have carried out various forms of exchanges and cooperation, which has played a very good role in promoting the exchanges and cooperative research between researchers of the two countries.

In recent years, with the construction of a resource-saving and environment-friendly society in China, the technical cooperation between the two sides in the field of energy conservation and environmental protection has developed rapidly. At the end of 2007, when Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda visited China, the two sides signed the Joint Statement of the Chinese and Japanese Governments on Further Strengthening Scientific and Technological Cooperation on Climate Change.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) military exchange and cooperation

China and Japan set up military attache offices in 1974, and military exchanges began in the late 1970s, with good relations. After 1989, the military exchanges between the two countries were once interrupted. 1995 Nishimoto Tetsuya, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of Japan's defense agency, visited China, and high-level military exchanges between China and Japan resumed. 1998 realized the exchange of visits between defense ministers. In 2000, the chiefs of staff of the two armies exchanged visits. In August 2007, Defense Minister Cao Gangchuan visited Japan. 165438+ 10. In October, Japanese warships visited China for the first time after World War II. From 1997 to 2008, the defense departments of China and Japan held eight security consultations. China and Japan have also carried out exchanges in the fields of national defense medicine, universities and academic research. When President Hu Jintao visited Japan in May 2008, the two sides agreed to strengthen defense exchanges, and the Japanese Defense Minister will visit China this year.

What is the current situation and future development trend of Sino-Japanese relations?

At present, Sino-Japanese relations are generally cold. Although high-level exchanges between the two countries have continued recently, there are still great differences on some sensitive issues, such as the most typical Diaoyu Islands issue, the Taiwan Strait issue and historical issues. In the future, there will be more problems between China and Japan. As an island country, Japan relies on imports for all its resources, so the implementation of transportation is a big problem. However, all Japanese transport ships pass through the Taiwan Province Strait. Japan is afraid that China will cut off their sea routes after the reunification of Taiwan Province Province, so it is expected that there will be another world war between China and Japan in 2020. . .

The History, Present Situation and Future Development of Sino-Japanese Relations

Historically, China and Japan have never been strong at the same time, so whoever is strong in the two countries, the other is a vassal or invaded and oppressed.

Now that the two countries are strong at the same time, there will inevitably be opposition and differences, which may last for more than decades.

In the future, I think everyone will understand that the relationship between the two countries may belong to the same East Asian Union as Britain and France, and then compete for the dominance of the alliance in rational rules. This alliance should include some countries in East Asia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific. In the battle for the leader of this alliance, the unified Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam and Australia will all have certain influence.

Sino-Japanese relations reflect and condense the complexity of state relations, not only between neighboring countries, but also between big countries. It is not only a "east-west" relationship, but also a "north-south" relationship; There is a dual relationship between peace and opposition in history, and there is a dual relationship between dependence and competition in reality. Sino-Japanese relations are at a critical period in history. It is the unshirkable historical responsibility of the people of the two countries, especially the politicians of the two countries, to treat and handle it correctly. It is the only correct choice to treat and handle Sino-Japanese relations from a strategic perspective. To look at and deal with problems from a strategic perspective is mainly to think and deal with problems from a historical, overall and future perspective.

First, we should be good at treating and handling Sino-Japanese relations from a historical perspective.

Taking history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall. The present situation of Sino-Japanese relations is largely related to the history of Sino-Japanese relations, and "taking history as a mirror" has become the basis and premise for handling Sino-Japanese relations. During the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, China took "taking history as a mirror and facing the future" as the basic principle guiding Sino-Japanese relations. Taking history as a mirror, that is, the history of Sino-Japanese relations, how to understand and treat the history of Sino-Japanese relations and find lessons from it will be a historical topic and practical task that the two peoples must complete.

When it comes to the history of Sino-Japanese relations, the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and the Japanese war of aggression against China are vivid and unforgettable. It is no wonder that when people mention "taking history as a mirror" in Sino-Japanese relations, they will naturally think of this history and raise it to the strategic height of national dignity and national honor and disgrace. There is nothing wrong with understanding the history of Sino-Japanese relations in this way, but it is not comprehensive and correct. Premier Zhou Enlai used ten words to explain the history of Sino-Japanese relations, that is, "two thousand years of friendship and fifty years of opposition". "Two thousand years of friendship and fifty years of opposition" is the most comprehensive and accurate explanation and expression in the history of Sino-Japanese relations. Sino-Japanese relations, from a historical perspective, friendship is long-term and opposition is short-lived; Friendship is the mainstream of history, and opposition is a "difficult and bitter" page in the mainstream of history. It is not comprehensive to see only the "50-year opposition" and ignore the "2000 friendship", or to see only the "2000 friendship" and ignore the "50-year opposition", and it will lead to wrong or even harmful conclusions.

"Two thousand years of friendship" has enabled China and Japan to enjoy long-term peace and common development. The exchanges between China and Japan can be traced back to the Han Dynasty more than two thousand years ago. The Tang Dynasty was the peak of cultural exchange between the two countries. Japanese envoys gathered in Chang 'an, and Jian Zhen monks crossed Japan. During the long communication process, China culture was spread and Japanese culture developed rapidly. In the geographical relationship separated by a strip of water, oriental cultural concepts and social structures with many similar factors have gradually formed. Even in modern times, the "Reform Movement of 1898" and the "Meiji Restoration" initiated by the two countries to promote social development fully demonstrated the "similarity" between the two countries in their own social development cycles and rhythms. "Two thousand years of friendship" has enabled the two peoples to enjoy peaceful diplomatic relations, mutual cultural nutrition and the fruits of social civilization for a long time. Even after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Sun Yat-sen, Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, Zhou Enlai and others still traveled between China and Japan for the needs of the revolution and friendship between the two countries. The history of "two thousand years of friendship" proves that "harmony is precious, and harmony is beneficial to both", and harmony is born and wins.

The "50-year opposition" broke Sino-Japanese relations and brought the society to a standstill. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan, supported by its rapid and powerful national strength, forgot the historical tradition of friendship between the two countries for two thousand years, expanded its ambitions, and brazenly provoked the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, which humiliated the Japanese people. Decades later, in the war of aggression against China, Japanese militarism committed heinous crimes on the wounds of the people of China. The two wars took place within half a century, which instantly destroyed the wealth created by generations of the two countries, broke the historical tradition of "two thousand years of friendship" between the two countries at once, and made the two peoples lose peace and stability, suffering from war and war trauma. The two wars made China's society retrogress, the country split, the Japanese prosperity instantly turned into ruins, and the national sovereignty was restricted. The history of "fifty years of opposition" proves that "fighting will hurt two", opposition will inevitably fail and war will inevitably fail.

If the history of Sino-Japanese relations is "two thousand years of friendship and fifty years of opposition", it can only prove that the civilized wisdom of "peace is beneficial and fighting is harmful" is obviously not comprehensive. What is the key to "two thousand years of friendship" and "fifty years of opposition"? Today, people must seriously sum up. The key to "two thousand years of friendship" lies in China. In the history of "two thousand years of friendship", China has always been in the leading position, but China did not use its leading position to expand to Japan, let alone wage war, but adhered to the national tradition of good-neighborliness and friendship, and the result was beneficial to itself and others. The key to the "50-year opposition" lies in Japan. Before and after the "50-year opposition" history, Japan developed faster and stronger than China. After Japan's leading development, there is nothing to hide. Its ambitions are expanding and expanding outward, harming others and not benefiting itself. How to treat and treat one's leadership position and one's status as a big country, the correct way is: leadership does not seek hegemony, strength does not expand; Leaders don't forget good neighbors, and strong needs friends.

Second, we should be good at treating and handling Sino-Japanese relations from the overall perspective.

Sino-Japanese relations are in a critical and sensitive period, and improper handling will have an adverse impact on the overall situation. It is most important to treat and handle Sino-Japanese relations from the overall situation. The Fourth Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee decided that the national interests and the common interests of people of all countries should be regarded as the fundamental criteria for judging international affairs and state relations. What is the overall situation? The national interests and the common interests of the people of all countries are the overall situation. Peace and development are our national interests, the common interests of people all over the world and the common interests of China-Japan relations. It has become the sacred mission of members of the international community, including China, to take the overall situation into consideration and safeguard the national interests and the common interests of the people of the world.

Peace and development are the themes of today's times and the overall situation of today's world. 2 1 century, the first half of the 20th century was ravaged by war and threatened by the cold war. What mankind needs most is peace and development. Peace and development are the general trend and the aspiration of the people. In this context, Sino-Japanese relations must obey and serve the overall situation of world peace and development. Sino-Japanese relations are not only important bilateral relations, but also important international relations, which affect both sides and the world and must be handled with caution.

After entering the 2 1 century, both China and Japan entered an important historical period. After more than half a century's development after World War II, Japan has become a world power economically. Due to World War II, Japan's political and military international status was restricted, and now it is actively promoting the transformation from an economic power to a political and economic power. After more than 20 years of reform and opening-up, China's economic strength and comprehensive national strength have been continuously enhanced, and it is realizing the transformation from a traditional political power to an economic and political power. Both China and Japan are in the process of changing to a higher international status and a more important international role, and the economic sum of the two countries has a great influence on the world economy. China and Japan are both close neighbors in Asia and have problems left over from history, which will inevitably lead to various frictions. If the friction between the two countries cannot be treated and handled correctly, it will certainly pose a threat to world peace and development and become a negative factor in the overall situation of world peace and development. China and Japan should proceed from the overall situation of world peace and development, and correctly treat and handle the frictions arising from the transformation of their important international roles and international status.

To make Sino-Japanese relations have a sense of the overall situation, at least two points need to be solved: First, a correct understanding of the international responsibilities that world powers should undertake and perform. Both China and Japan are world powers, and both subjectively and objectively, they are moving towards an all-round world power, but before they become world powers, we must make full psychological preparations. This psychological preparation is to have a deep understanding of the overall situation of world peace and development, a deep reflection on historical issues, and a willingness to contribute to world peace and development. As far as Japan is concerned, first of all, it is necessary to truly reflect on the damage caused to the world's peaceful development in history, repent and apologize for the damage caused by its aggression to Asian countries, gain the trust of the countries and people concerned with its peaceful development path and good-neighborly and friendly practices with the world, especially neighboring countries, and truly prove itself to be a promoter and builder of world's peaceful development with practical actions. For China, first of all, we should focus on the overall situation of the world and China and Japan, correctly understand and handle the friction in Sino-Japanese relations, and we should not sacrifice the future for temporary tension, and we should not let local disharmony affect the comprehensive relations between the two countries. It is an international obligation that China and Japan must fulfill, and it is also a basic requirement for the image of a big country to do more efforts conducive to peaceful development, not to intensify contradictions and not to expand tensions. Second, China and Japan, two world powers, must understand, respect and support each other in the process of their respective transformation into world powers. China and Japan are both in Asia and Northeast Asia. It is impossible for them to have no competition and friction in their respective transformation into world powers. The key is how to understand and deal with this kind of competition and friction. From the historical perspective of the evolution of the world pattern, regional development and regional integration include the North American Free Trade Area with the United States as the core, the European Union with France and Germany as the dual cores, and the multi-core Association of Southeast Asian Nations. China and Japan are playing an important role in the development of Asia, especially Northeast Asia. In the process of Asian integration in the future, especially in Northeast Asia, China and Japan should become the twin engines to jointly promote peace and development in Asia, including Northeast Asia, and even the world.

2/KLOC-0 The overall situation and national interests of China in the 20th century are very clear, that is, to maintain a peaceful international environment, maintain national stability and promote social development. A peaceful international environment, especially a peaceful surrounding environment, is an important national interest of China at present, because a peaceful international environment and surrounding environment are the basic conditions and prerequisites for maintaining domestic stability and promoting social development. Without a peaceful environment, nothing can be said. Sino-Japanese relations are an important factor in the surrounding environment and relations. Maintaining domestic stability is the fundamental interest of contemporary China. Social stability is the foundation of social development, the guarantee of people's harmonious life and the important embodiment of social civilization. Friction in peripheral relations will affect domestic stability, and domestic people's emotional instability will even threaten stability. Promoting social development is the core interest of China today. "Development is the last word", China is a developing country, and its per capita GNP is behind the world. Japan is a developed country, and its per capita GNP ranks among the top in the world. Development is far more important to China than to Japan. If the development problem is not properly solved, China cannot truly rank among the world powers.

After more than 20 years of development, China has become the largest trading country of Japan, and Japan, together with the United States and the European Union, has become the top three trading countries of China. There are huge * * * interests in economic interests. Sino-Japanese relations are directly related to the overall national situation and national interests of maintaining a peaceful international environment, maintaining domestic stability and promoting social development. In the face of this overall situation, everyone must be sober and rational everywhere, and all patriotic feelings and actions must obey and serve the overall situation and interests of the country. Feelings and behaviors that are conducive to the overall situation and national interests are patriotism, otherwise they will go to the opposite side of patriotism.

Third, we should be good at treating and handling Sino-Japanese relations from a future perspective.

"Taking history as a mirror and facing the future", in which "taking history as a mirror" is the premise and foundation, and "facing the future" is the purpose and foundation. As two big countries in Asia and the world, China and Japan should contribute to the future of Asia and the world. We must use future goals and needs to guide and constrain process behavior. For China, it is extremely important to look at and handle Sino-Japanese relations from the perspective of the future.

The future world should be a world of peaceful development, and the future international order should be a fair and reasonable new order. China is an advocate and promoter of the establishment of a new international order and should make efforts and contributions to the establishment of a new international order. Resolving international relations and national disputes in a rational and peaceful way is an important practice in establishing a new international order. The sustainable development of Asia, especially East Asia, will surely play an important role in the future international order. China's efforts to establish a new international order should start from Asia, and the establishment of a new international order in Northeast Asia bears the brunt. China's image as a responsible big country has been tested in dealing with the relations between countries in Northeast Asia and establishing a new order. It is our correct attitude not to represent the future with the present, not to sacrifice the long-term with the present, not to replace reason with emotion, and not to sacrifice cooperation with confrontation. All walks of life, especially young students, should understand and support any efforts made by the state and government to establish a new international order and establish the image of a responsible big country. We must not let our efforts to establish a new international order and establish the image of a responsible big country be frustrated by impulsive excesses, or even become a reason for other countries to misunderstand and attack.

Integration is the basic trend of Asia and Northeast Asia in the future. East Asian countries have a * * understanding of this issue and are making various efforts and practices. China is an active participant and promoter, and the integration of Asia and Northeast Asia is in the fundamental interests of China and countries in the region. China and Japan are important countries in Asia and core countries in Northeast Asia. The relationship between the two countries is directly related to the future integration of Asia and Northeast Asia. China and Japan are both members of "10+3", and they are the main countries of free trade zones in this region in the future, and they are also advocates and promoters of free trade zones. The relationship between China and Japan directly affects the construction and integration of free trade zones in this region. From the perspective of the future of Asia and Northeast Asia, China and Japan should completely solve historical problems, put down their burdens, integrate into the process of regional integration, develop in the process of integration, and become strong in the process of integration. Regional integration is more important for China, which can not only ensure the peaceful surrounding environment of China, but also change the unreasonable economic and political structure of the world. It can not only promote the development of China, but also help China to establish a responsible image as a big country and a new international order. Based on this, China should properly treat and handle the current Sino-Japanese relations, and be good at treating problems with great wisdom and courage. The core of great wisdom and courage is to skillfully solve the Sino-Japanese friction and resolve various negative factors with the future trend of regional peace, stability and regional integration.

Building a harmonious socialist society, building a well-off society in an all-round way, realizing modernization and realizing the great rejuvenation of the nation are the core interests of China in the future. The realization of these future core interests depends on "concentrating on construction and developing wholeheartedly" from now on. Any slack, neglect or interference of other factors will seriously affect or hinder the realization of China's future core interests. Deng Xiaoping has clearly pointed out that unless there is a large-scale foreign invasion, we should firmly grasp the development of productive forces. Now, realizing China's core interests in the future coincides with an important period of strategic opportunities. It is our top priority to seize the opportunity and promote development. Deng Xiaoping said that we have lost too many opportunities, and now we can't lose them any more. Since 1950s, there has been an important opportunity period in the world which is beneficial to development. We failed to catch it, but Japan caught it.
