Foreign media: According to the latest survey by the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai (AmCham), the proportion of American companies optimistic about their business prospects in China over the next five years is only 41%, almost half of the level in 2021, and a four-year low. At the same time, 37% of respondents said they are pessimistic or slightly pessimistic, higher than last year's 28%, setting a new historical high.

The survey shows that the main sources of pressure include Sino-US geopolitical tensions, fierce competition, and long-term economic slowdown.

The chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai pointed out that in the past 10 to 20 years, American companies could easily replicate global strategies in China, but now Chinese companies have significantly improved innovation capabilities and competitiveness, making the operating environment more complex. In addition, the actual use of foreign capital in China in the first seven months of this year fell by 13.4% to 467.34 billion yuan (about 67.6 billion US dollars).
