You can have 25minutes to do the work.Please give your answers onAnswer Sheet.CBE and omnichannel?are the main trends of the global market. Let’s take a look at the reasons why the values of CBE are widely recognized among APEC economies and why CBE is empowering SMEs to enter the global value chain. Asia-Pacific region has become the dominant region in the global economy, growing faster than any other, at a rate of 35.2% year on.?The values of CBE to global SMEs are recognized among APAC economiesbecause of two major reasons. First is the disruptive force in economies that are undergoing?massive political, social and economic changes?to support CBE. Even traditionally ‘closed’ economies are putting CBE at the highest priority on their digital 2020 agenda. Second, SMEs are fast-growing due to disruptive innovation. By applying new sets of rules, values and models which ultimately disrupt and/or overtake existing markets by displacing earlier technologies and alliances, these innovative SMEs create new markets.（1）?International research conducted by University of South California?revealed that 74% of businesses surveyed considered CBE as the key disruptive force on their economy over the next three years, 82% indicated that CBE would have great impact on SMEs over the next three years, and 48% said that CBE would have greater priority for their company strategy and development.?Domestic markets have become mature and saturated. CBE is the most logical way for future growth. Governments around the world have recognized ecommerce as an engine of future economic growth, especially in supporting SMEs to expand cross-border. Supportive policies boost the development of CBE.?International research conducted by Payvision?showed that 70% of companies surveyed indicated that selling products and services overseas has proven to be profitable. While 40% indicated that??were their primary focus, and 45% indicate that China will be their main focus in the future.?CBE is empowering SMEs to enter global value chain, to survive in a mature and saturated competitive domestic market, increase their speed of development and broaden their business opportunities.（2）?SMEs with high internet and technology usage grow 2.1 times faster than SMEs that do not leverage technology, regardless of the industry.?60-80% of ecommerce exporters survive their first year in business compared with a 30-50% survival rate for traditional businesses. Ecommerce firms on average export to 30-40 different economies compared with 3-4 economies for traditional exporters. That’s 10 times more opportunities for business growth.?Using CBE the business risks are reduced to a level with lower intensity of competition in overseas markets, and wider reach of global markets. CBE offers more flexibility and lower barriers, no geographical restrictions, thus it increases the profit margins for sellers and saves money for global buyers.?Under CBE industry,?B2B is the leading force in driving the industry forward.?Let’s take a look at the number of global B2B. According to Frost and Sullivan report (LINK), it is estimated that in 2020, the total global transactional volume in B2B business will be twice the size of B2C business, with 6.7 trillion USD revenue.?According to 2015 ecommerce marketplace data, in China, in terms of cross-border sales, B2C revenue dwarfed with $221m in B2B. Chinese ecommerce market reached USD 2.3 trillion in 2015 and almost 70% came from B2B (China Internet Watch).?In absolute terms, the EuropeanB2B ecommerce market is growing at a faster rate than the B2C sector. Yet, the B2B sector still has major growth opportunity. More than 50% of companies make purchases through ecommerce, but less than 22% of companies are actually selling through ecommerce.With the integrated online B2B platforms, a complete service chain is moved online, shortening the purchasing cycle and cutting the cost through less middlemen. Buying in bulk also means an enhanced logistics efficiency. And with larger order size, businesses are more inclined to enter this business with more profit margins.?Did you know that Prada makes about 20% of their collection in China? Miuccia Prada told the?, “Sooner or later, it will happen to everyone because Chinese manufacturing is so good.?Their skill set is better, their finishing is better, and they can handle that type of fashion.” This example illustrates the demand from overseas markets for Chinese high quality products. I believe with the increasing productivity and improved product quality, made-in-China products will be tested and recognized with good reputation in the global markets! Over 40% of apparel sold in the US is made in China. For B2B demand by the rest of the world for machinery parts that are made in China will be double that of the US by 2022. Quality reputation is being restored.?Around the world, Computers and other Machinery, Automotive, Pharmaceutical, Petroleum & Minerals, are leading the B2B rankings for many years, as the early adopters. But let’s be clear about these numbers; lately many new categories are on the rise. Look at apparel, only ranking around 5% is already bringing solid business to China. Good quality products will grow every industry/sector in CBE.Section AChoose 10 from the 12BOLD words or phrases in the passage to complete the following sentences with their appropriate forms.1.药物治疗对这个病人毫无效果。
