Sun Ruizhe, vice president of the Federation of industry, 2015 in China and South Korea

A speech was made at the fashion industry forum and the new conference of Chinese and Korean fashion designers.

The textile and garment industry is a pillar industry in China and South Korea. It has a good industrial foundation and occupies an important place in the world.

China is the largest producer of textiles and clothing in the world.

Countries and consumers, South Korea's textile and apparel exports account for ninth of the world's total, and have advantages in functional new materials, environmental technology, textiles and clothing design, business models and so on.

The biggest feature of China South Korea's textile and garment industry cooperation is complementarity, deepening cooperation in technology, design, investment and market.

In June 1st this year, the two countries formally signed the free trade agreement between the People's Republic of China government and the Republic of Korea government, pointing out the future direction of cooperation between the two countries from the strategic level, and the two countries' cooperation in the field of textile and clothing will be closer after the signing of the FTA.

In September 16th, Alibaba group announced that it had stepped up efforts to expand cross-border business overseas, and reached cross-border agreements with overseas brands even closer.

I believe there will be more room for development and cooperation in the future of Sino Korean textile and clothing trade and investment.

China's modernization drive is marked by industrialization, information technology, agricultural modernization and urbanization.

China's urbanization in 2013 exceeded 65%, which means that the urban population will increase by 300 million in the next 20 years.

At present, the income of urban residents is 3 times the income of rural residents.

Per capita consumption is about 2.7 times, and per capita clothing expenditure is about 4.3 times.

Urbanization will undoubtedly bring great impetus to the pformation of Chinese society, the pformation of people's lifestyle and the improvement of consumption level.

In the process of China's excessive consumption to the consuming countries, the fashion industry with the characteristics of creative culture and personality consumption will usher in a great development opportunity, which is determined by the upgrading of the lifestyle, the consumption concept and the practical support of the consumption power.

In the new era, China's textile industry, as a pillar industry of the national economy, an important livelihood industry and an industry that creates a new international advantage, is also playing an important role in beautifying people's lives, promoting related industries, stimulating domestic demand, enhancing ecological civilization, enhancing cultural self-confidence and promoting social harmony.

Textile cluster is an important support for the development of China's textile industry. Its healthy development and sustainable development are highly valued by the industry and governments at all levels.

Keqiao, Shaoxing, is one of the most representative clusters in China's textile industry. It has the complete textile industry chain from chemical raw materials to fabrics, printing and dyeing, clothing and home textiles, and has the largest textile trading center in Asia, Keqiao Textile City.

Similarly, in South Korea, the development of industrial clusters is closely related to the development of the textile and garment industry in South Korea. The East Gate area dominated by clothing, the Daegu area dominated by woven fabrics, and the Gyeonggi Do region dominated by knitted fabrics are all Korean representative textile and garment industrial clusters, playing an important role in the development of Korean textile and clothing industry.

Through the exchanges and cooperation between the two industrial clusters, we will open up pnational cooperation in the field of design, product development and channel expansion, which will play a positive role in promoting the development of their respective fashions.

Whether traditional or modern, or Eastern and western, fashion is the product of cultural exchange and integration.

China and Korea share the same cultural background and long history in East Asia.

In the course of thousands of years of communication, the two peoples have formed deep friendship and formed many similar cultural traditions.

The similarity of culture also brings more possibilities for China South Korea to cooperate in the development of fashion industry.

Upgrading the added value of creativity is the common pursuit of the fashion industry. The fusion of different cultures, ideas and business models is the way to enhance the catalytic creativity. This is also the intention of the Keqiao government to host the Sino Korean Fashion Forum.

Through exchanges and dialogues among different cultures, we should learn from each other, learn from each other and learn from each other to achieve mutual development and mutual development.
