Research On China-Japan Third-party Market Cooperation Under The Framework Of "One Belt, One Road"

After the financial crisis in 2008,the world’s economic development has been sluggish.China coordinates the domestic and international situation,and put forward“The Belt and Road” in 2013,which has quickly become a high-quality and shared cooperation platform.China creatively put forward "third-party market cooperation" to strengthen economic cooperation under the framework of "The Belt and Road",which has attracted the attention of Japan.After 2017,the political and economic relations between China and Japan began to improve,Japan began to change resistance and try to join in the construction of the “The Belt and Road”.In 2018,the two countries officially launched third-party market cooperation.At the same time,China and Japan created many typical projects,such as the joint use of China-Europe Railway Express,Sweihan 1177 MW Photovoltaic Independent Power project,Mitsui KSP Sugar Plant Project in Thailand.Based on their own development needs and the strategic squeeze of America,China and Japan need to cooperate in the third-party market.At the same time,the two countries have great potential in third-party market cooperation,such as logistics,infrastructure,finance,environmental protection industry,digital economy,and healthcare.However,the two countries face many challenges,such as the volatile political relations,Japan’s lack of trust in “The Belt and Road”,the lack of talents and the actual project competition in the third market,etc.In addition,the two countries are also facing other factors,such as the strong intervention of America and the unstable business environment of the third countries.International public emergencies can also make Sino-Japanese cooperation in the third market worse,such as the COVID-19 epidemic.China and Japan should increase political mutual trust,consolidate the friendship between the two peoples,accelerate strategic docking,do a good job in third-party market research,increase financial support,speed up the training of professional talents,create pilot demonstration zones,establish a long-term mechanism and improve risk plans.In addition,China should strengthen its external publicity on “The Belt and Road”,and eliminate the doubts of the Japanese government and enterprises about “The Belt and Road”.
