The 20 th CPC National Congress proposed," To build a modern industrial system,we will continue to focus on the economic development of the real economy,promote a new type of industrialization,accelerate the cultivating of manufacturing power,and promote the development of high-end,intelligent and green manufacturing." This is not only an important part of promoting high-quality Chinese economic development,but also an objective requirement for building a great modern socialist country in an all-round way.The high-quality development of the real economy cannot be separated from the continuous improvement of the quality of manufacturing products,which is an important aspect of China’s accelerated realization of a "manufacturing power" in the new era.With the deepening of China’s opening-up,the high-quality development of foreign trade is an important aspect of China’s economic structural reform and production capacity upgrading.The Belt and Road Initiative is a national top-level cooperation initiative put forward by China in 2013.China has made major achievements in many aspects,especially promoting the rapid growth of foreign trade and exports.In this context,the study of the Belt and Road Initiative is of great theoretical and practical significance for the high-quality development of China’s foreign trade.This paper aims to find out what role the Belt and Road Initiative plays in improving the quality of China’s export products and promoting the better "going global" of enterprises to achieve high-quality development.In order to study this core problem,this paper starts from the perspective of micro enterprise,in order to further understand the Belt and Road Initiative,and put forward effective suggestions for the high quality development and reform of foreign trade.Based on the import and export database of micro data,this paper uses KSW method to measure the export quality,and uses Difference-in-Differences model to research the relation,then uses the tendency score matching method after difference,placebo test to eliminate the robustness of the conclusion.Secondly,on the basis of benchmark regression,uses the intermediary analysis framework to find out the influence path of the Belt and Road Initiative on the quality of export products.Finally,the empirical test of different forms of enterprises under different ownership,enterprises in different regions,and enterprises in provinces and cities along the "One Belt" and "One Road" was conducted to explore the heterogeneous impact.The results show that the Belt and Road Initiative has a significant effect in improving the quality of export products of Chinese manufacturing enterprises.Mechanism analysis found that the Belt and Road Initiative improves the quality of enterprise export products by reducing enterprise transaction costs,improving the quality of imported intermediate products,and promoting enterprise research and development and innovation.However,the promotion effect has heterogeneous effects among different enterprise ownership and different regions.Private enterprises are stronger than state-owned enterprises,eastern regions are stronger than central and western regions and northeast regions,and enterprises along the "One Road" are stronger than enterprises along the "One Belt".Based on the conclusions of the study,countermeasures and suggestions are put forward.Firstly,at the government level,the government should continue to give full play to "The Belt and Road" energy,further reduce transaction costs,strengthen regional cooperation,promote high-quality external development,attach importance to regional differences,and improve supporting facilities and services.Secondly,at the enterprise level,enterprises should actively respond to the Belt and Road Initiative,seize the opportunities,give full play to their subjective initiative,pay attention to high-quality development,attach importance to scientific as well as technological research and development,and enhance the competitiveness of enterprises.
