中國經濟要聞
Several Chinese cities are introducing concrete steps to stimulate consumption and maintain stable economic growth amid optimization of the country's COVID-19 rules in recent weeks.
In southern China's Guangdong province, Guangzhou is giving out a total of 30 million yuan worth of consumption vouchers in three rounds from December 8 to 19, which cover stores and supermarkets, e-commerce, dinners and drinks, as well as accommodation.
Shenzhen has increased its quota of car license plates and provided government subsidies to encourage residents to buy hybrid and new energy vehicles. The city had also started another round of consumption subsidies of up to 15 percent discounts on electronic devices and white goods starting last Friday.
Meanwhile, the city has helped companies reduce their burden by more than 150 billion yuan ($21.56 billion) through various policies this year. These have effectively helped the majority of market entities overcome financial hurdles and resume production, said Wang Jun, deputy director of the city's Development and Reform Commission.
Chengdu, Sichuan province, one of the country's most popular tourist destinations, has big plans, too. The city has designed new offers, such as food plus performing arts or food plus cultural creativity, to encourage people to spend more. It plans to cash in on weekends, New Year's Day and Spring Festival rush.
To boost consumption, Fuzhou, capital of Fujian province, is offering free subway and bus rides on all public holidays and weekends through Feb 28.
Beijing has introduced a slew of measures as well to relieve the burden on businesses, meet market expectations and support steady economic growth. The list includes reducing taxes and fees, increasing policy support, resolving payment arrears and strengthening financial backing.
Official data show that the total tax and fee reductions, refunds and rebates in Beijing have reached 200 billion yuan so far this year, and 920 million yuan in arrears to small and medium-sized enterprises has been cleared.

為了進一步穩經濟、促消費，深圳還將釋放一系列“大招”，旅遊、零售、汽車等多個行業即將收穫一份“大禮包”。據了解，今年以來深圳拿出真金白銀幫助企業發展，助力消費增長，已經為企業減負超過1500億元。
