SAN FRANCISCO March 25, according to the latest survey data show Wanrui: Product can not experience the Internet, e-commerce platform as a whole there is a common problem, the platform-based web site highlighting the product quality control problems, service-oriented Web site in service lacking.

As the platform-based site is the “store” platform, can only be assigned to segments (such as the integrity of platform) to control, but rarely penetrate into the supply chain to regulate each of a “boutique” product quality, so , the product highlights the phenomenon of mixed quality. The service-oriented Web site link from the product supply chain begin to control, if the product quality, but off the impact of the platform’s credibility. But the link in the logistics, customer service is still a lack of response and other services sectors.

How can it improve the common problem of this e-commerce environment? Jingdong use of high-profile to build their own logistics, acquisition Taobao choose express delivery companies, etc. These are not fundamentally resolve the issue of product experience.

Yesterday, from search media conference was informed that the search for e-commerce environment has not the same notes, in the search that “co-operation with the traditional business e-commerce platform” model, because the traditional enterprises have unique channels and brand advantages, logistics, product experience, integrity and mechanism of protection has a very sound, so in the search industry, China (found in e-commerce platform) platform that is based on the breadth of the site at the same time have the vertical degree of service-oriented Web site, the largest degree of industry users providing accurate industry information, search, communication, transaction and other services.

In the search Pei Chen said, “in the search have to do is put these advantages derived from traditional enterprises to the Internet, and even greater improvements.”

It is reported that the search industry, with traditional co-operative enterprise networks, found mainly in the provision of e-business network technology, operations and other aspects of the platform can be in a very short period of time to build a business network quickly, not only can support many different data synchronization processing industry for the industry Net open segments of the supply and demand, products, enterprise data sources, but also has a unique operational services to help enhance the traditional enterprise-wide network of brand image and achieve the depth of network marketing industry.

In another development, according to the search Pei Chen said China will soon be found for the traditional retail areas, introduction of a unique platform for B2C mall.

With the rapid development of global e-commerce, e-commerce in China is facing a variety of opportunities and challenges, e-commerce in China compared with developed countries there are many problems. In this paper, e-commerce development in China the status quo and problems of the analysis put forward China’s development of electronic commerce at the present stage of the response and suggestions.

As information technology advances, network-based e-commerce is growing rapidly. This new business model for a number of microscopic fields, not only from the traditional mode of operation was launched a serious challenge, but also brought about macro-economic operation and management of revolutionary change. Many experts believe that the development of e-commerce the next 25 years, a driving force of world economic development, is the world economy to a knowledge economy, an important impetus for change. Of e-commerce will become the dominant form of business activities, the Chinese how to make better and faster development of e-commerce, participate in global economic integration is worthy of our consideration.
First, China E-Commerce Development Status

China Electronic Commerce Although a late start, but has developed rapidly. E-commerce and the Internet kept between the mutually reinforcing relationship, due to the large number of Chinese Internet users, so e-commerce in China has a good base for development. In 2008, China’s network transactions totaled 1,200 billion.

In 2008, the online shopping market growth was evident. The number of users currently online shopping has reached 74 million people, an annual growth rate to reach 60 ℅. But compared with developed countries, there are still some distance, the United States is far higher than China’s 71 ℅ usage.

Although e-commerce development in China very soon, but in the focus groups, the proportion of very uneven, two groups of college students and office workers greatly exceeded the proportion of primary and secondary schools and rural migrant workers, school children due to their own age, and economic capacity of the reasons for not be considered temporary, while the proportion of migrant workers in rural areas is illustrated in the lower of the uneven development of e-commerce. Therefore, in the next few years, e-commerce development should be extended to suburban and rural.

E-commerce is a kind of information in conjunction with the network as the carrier of new business model, its development subject to the information network infrastructure level and corresponds to the network economy, social and legal, honest environment. Although the Chinese government attaches great importance to development of electronic commerce, but because of the social infrastructure in China do not quite complete, compared to the developed countries is still fairly far behind. The protection of e-commerce activity specification, the safe operation of the social laws and regulations, good faith is constrained environment is not a complete e-commerce development in China’s more direct and deeper factors.
Second, the factors affecting e-commerce development in China

1. In the development of e-commerce companies still lack a clear development strategy and a strong technical and economic policy

At present, China is also lacking in many special plans for the development of e-commerce, e-commerce legal and regulatory framework has been drafted for many years, has not yet been opened throughout the country to promote the content. National Development E-commerce is also a lack of clear and strong technical and economic policy. At the same time the existing administrative rules and regulations of the Department, not suited to e-commerce development has not been timely amendment. Study and formulate relevant laws and regulations of e-commerce more slack. The U.S. government in July 1997 issued the “Framework for Global Electronic Commerce” as the U.S. government’s strategic policy framework for the development of e-commerce. The U.S. Government Working Group on Electronic Commerce to report annually on the implementation of the proposed policy changes and the history of the new strategic proposals, and to promote the implementation of relevant policies and strategies.

2. Enterprise information construction lags

At present, the overall level of corporate information in terms of Office 10 is also backward state, the majority of enterprise computer and network infrastructure is weak, the lack of professionals. Enterprise management has yet to truly achieve an information society. And the Chinese people attach importance to most enterprises only infrastructure, while ignoring the comprehensive utilization of information resources, so companies into e-commerce system because of the lack of information resources, the process of the organization, management and the application of the party by building a foundation, tend to make this business in a very difficult situation.
3. E-commerce transaction security issues

According to the survey, fear has become a credit card number is stolen influence people to conduct transactions through the network the biggest problem. How to ensure online transactions, fairness and security, to ensure the authenticity of the identity of transaction parties to ensure the integrity of the transmission of information and transaction non-repudiation, has become one of China’s e-commerce development process the most concern.

The information in e-commerce transactions is difficult to plug security holes. On the one hand is due to the lack of a unified information security standards for cryptographic algorithms, protocols between security and efficiency difficult to be reconciled; on the other hand, it is because most managers know little about network security. Of e-commerce development in China, each industry has gradually emerged on the network a high degree of dependence. Once the attack on computer networks, e-commerce systems are not a result of the normal operation of China’s economic construction will result in incalculable losses.

4. E-commerce shortage of talent.

E-commerce talents required are divided into three levels: first, technical service support layer; second, general management staff; third, senior management level.

China’s first-level staff also compared the lack of e-commerce education in largely ignored the needs of the second-level personnel, and even without taking into account the base wood on the third level of personnel, training, e-commerce education issues are not well, e – Business can not be sustained rapid development.
Third, accelerate the development of China’s key measures of e-commerce

1. Do a good job of e-commerce development planning and macro-guidance

E-commerce is a new thing, its fast technological development, operational modalities has not been finalized either, giving policy-making has brought some difficulties. This requires policy makers to the towel market changes in a high degree of sensitivity, strengthen research and timely policies to encourage development of electronic commerce policy.

2. To speed up construction of information infrastructure

E-commerce in a country’s development depends on sound information infrastructure as a basis. 80% of global e-commerce sales in the United States, the United States dominance in the competition is its capital, technology, high investment and complete construction of information infrastructure as a basis.

In Asia, e-commerce have developed a better country, such as Japan, Singapore, South Korea and so on, without exception, have a relatively complete information infrastructure as a basis. With the developed countries of high inputs and dense spider web of information superhighway, compared to the information infrastructure of China’s apparent shortage. There are only in Shanghai, and Tianjin, several cities have done a better information infrastructure construction, the formation of a certain size. From the national scale, we are laying fiber optic cable, the popularization of computers and networks are obviously behind the building, and many remote, impoverished areas has not been established outlets, to become the information highway construction “blind spots” or “desert.”

3. Attention to the economic security of enterprise networks

Business e-commerce and information network construction and development, we can not ignore the issue of network security. Information systems from internal and external of the illegal invasion will be more subtle, if trade secrets were stolen, the information system is damaged, a large number of data loss will have implications for the survival of business very challenging to make the competition were at the disadvantage. Internet e-commerce security issues has become a matter of concern is currently the focus of how to ensure that trade secrets are not leaked, the accuracy of electronic signatures, the confidentiality of the database and network of the healthy and orderly trading system to run, and so is not overlooked key.

4. The Government’s support and cultivation of talents

Government supported the first in the network infrastructure, the need of government join efforts to introduce a reasonable capital investment, and improve investment efficiency in building a more Jia’an a fast information network. The establishment of equality, and open market competition mechanism. Through market competition system, the user can get a better service and lower prices.

At the same time to carry out e-commerce activity requires not only high-tech workers, but also the amount of people to master modern information technology and business theory and practice of the compound talents. Should therefore make full use of various channels and in-segment culture and the rational use of a good number of high quality and reasonable level of professional matching networks, computers and business and other parties are willing to reason and professionals, has accelerated the pace of building e-commerce in China.

Chinese e-commerce a late start, and now the development is far from perfect. To promote the rapid development of Chinese e-commerce, we must carefully identify problems, recommend practical solutions to be able to realistically implemented. To support and cited the government’s human juice, actively promote the business model innovation, information technology, innovation, and seriously committed to the training of relevant personnel, to promote China’s e-health, rapid and stable development.

　Alibaba1688.com high-profile launch, and a thorough alternative Alibaba China station, indicates that B2B services are entering a new milestone. The model derives precisely from the micro-1688.com foreign trade B2B.

In 2009 years ago, foreign trade has been in a low-key state of B2B, but many people in the industry profitable in this area, Alibaba.com, China’s manufacturing network, Dunhuang network have been seized in this area with their own in a market, whereas in small foreign markets, primarily Dunhuang net, then some employees to leave the network out of Dunhuang founded a similar site, but the competition is heating up yet.

To August 6, 2009, Alibaba small wholesale and retail trade platform for the global sell-pass full-speed into the trial operation phase, indicating that small foreign trade B2B is about to enter era of intense competition. However, Alibaba is not the use of foreign markets was the main use of payment instrumentspaypal, So that the actual effect of the platform is not satisfactory.

Entered in March 2010, the situation changed after 2009, Wang Shutong Dunhuang network of high-profile “road show”, and finally got a handsomeFinancingFor its resistance to rapid sell-pass erosion, laid the foundation. TheMaIs made a bold strategy, with the desire ebay cooperation to make the trade platform fully supports PayPal payments, it is learned upgraded Ali micro-trade platform Alibaba Express will be a new on-line in April. In my opinion, If the strategy is implemented, will open up small Alibaba foreign markets, resulting in a huge help, while the network will also include the Dunhuang, including B2B trade platform for domestic micro-pose a real impact.

The new strategy adopted by Alibaba, Dunhuang large network of financing, can be judged in the future of China’s foreign trade B2B market, small foreign trade will become the new mainstream, Alibaba B2B trade involved in the case of small, Dunhuang network can melt into the tens of millions of dollars, all this is not a coincidence, at the same time, there is a phenomenon, need to focus on, whether Alibaba or Dunhuang network, or evenBaiduHave begun to vie with each other in the Shenzhen settled. April 24 ~ 25, several small foreign trade B2B, or the collective appearance of the fifth held in ShenzhenSMEE-commerce application development of the General Assembly, according to reporter has learned, the conference tradeEOne of the topics will be the focus, 1000 More than the Pearl River DeltaEnterpriseIndustry sites will be senior representatives from the field and the dinner, and e-commerce and business elite of Friends of free to share and exchange.

“Time magazine” site on the 18th reported that the face of constant hacker attacks, the U.S. Department of Defense has been using to build a firewall against such measures, but little effect, and now The Pentagon has begun to make their acceptance of computer hacking experts, technical training, become a “certified ethical hacker” concurrency certificate.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense, said Weilianlinen said: “There is more than 100 foreign intelligence organizations attempt to invade the U.S. computer systems. Some countries have been able to disrupt the U.S. information infrastructure facilities.” And the world, like most agencies, the United States Department of Defense that can not be 100 percent control of these highly skilled and decisively determined hackers. In order to be able to predict and thwart hacker attacks, they also felt the need to understand the idea of hackers. Therefore, the U.S. Department of Defense revised the rules that would allow hackers to accept the military experts, technical training, access to ethical hacking certification. During the week long course taught in 150 hacking techniques and skills, including viruses, worms, sniffers, and network warfare in fishing technology. Since 2003, more than 20,000 people around the world have received international e-commerce for the members, called the United States – a non-governmental organizations issued by the ethical hacker certification.

Air Force Lt. Col. 艾里克巴特 package He insisted that the Defense Department is not in the training of a hacker. United States International Electronic Commerce Advisory Board, called the “Certified Ethical Hacker” training, the U.S. military claimed it as “penetration testing” or “red team” training. These methods have been used by the military for many years to improve their combat skills. For example, the Air Force retains the equipment, F-5 and MiG fighter jets “imaginary enemy squadron,” to provide opportunities for pilots, practice tactics against potential adversaries. The Army’s Fort Irwin National Training Center also has a well-trained imaginary enemy troops for the Army provides a simulated combat exercise known.

Advisory Committee Chairman 桑吉巴维斯 international e-commerce, said: “We trained the network bodyguard, not the fighter.” Today’s world increasingly interconnected through the network can not rely solely on a static defensive means to protect those who maintain the global financial, medical, functioning government and infrastructure systems important information, their risk is too high. Babis said: “We can say: not good, hackers do not follow the rules, no way, then shut the door bar. Or we can tell you: We use the same hacking knowledge of the armed you must first of all to beat hackers think like them. ”

Of course, a simple training program will not help the U.S. Department of Defense to solve all the problems, the department’s network had been hundreds of attacks a day. Massachusetts called Netragard a network security company’s chief technology officer loved Delierdi sotes, said the significance of the training is better than none, the entire Department of Defense on a million computers, it is difficult to protect the fragile point of too many “loopholes The number far exceeds the number can be found. ”

Hackers have received technical training of military personnel will become a true hacker? Bate He does not exist, and Babis believe that this concerns. They believed that training providers have a clear understanding of this issue, but also a moral hackers trainee must sign a legally binding agreement to ensure that does not participate in malicious hacking.

In recent days, the Ministry of Commerce pointed out that the Ministry of Commerce’s current focus is to support a traditional business into e-commerce enterprises, and online shopping platform in the credit system, means of payment, etc. to support and policy guidance. What does this signal? And then linked to the two sessions, Premier Wen Jiabao’s government work report also proposed to expand consumer demand to “strengthen the business infrastructure such as distribution system, and actively developing e-commerce.” Clearly, these are the Government’s policy in guiding the traditional e-commerce business development, we can see the importance of e-commerce on business development.

The Internet age, e-commerce development as an emerging industry, the relevant departments have been attached great importance to the development of e-commerce has entered a new stage. These are some of the current hot spots and development trend, we should take hold of this pulse of light of market and policy-oriented, targeted to carry out the layout and expansion. During the two sessions, Suning Zhang Jindong dished out the “net purchase unlikely to become mainstream” point of view, the sudden rise to the participants and consumers refuted. Ereli net survey data show that in 2009 China’s Internet shopping industry, size of the market reached 248.35 billion yuan, up 93.7% continued to surge, showing a good momentum for growth.

With the continuous innovation of Internet technology, logistics and channels of comprehensive development and gradually matured in recent years, the rapid development of domestic e-commerce, the most obvious is the different industries to enter. Household appliances, food, diamonds, clothing and other traditional businesses have bought into the network market, diversifying the choice of consumers to buy on the net, they can feel with the supermarket shopping in the physical is almost no difference. We have seen many traditional enterprises have settled in the Internet, beginning in 2009, including the 100-lai, the grain, Li Ning, Glanz, P & G and so has a good brand in the traditional areas of influence of large brands have “catenary” so that a wider range of radiation field of electronic commerce, and constantly be expanded.

Self-organizing team, we were used to build your own e-commerce information system or choose a third-party services, including food choices in their own development and construction, while the 100-li, as is currently the nation’s largest footwear retailers, select the nation’s largest E-commerce software and service provider ShopEx custom and enterprise-class solution, with the help of professional third-party technical support for the development of e-commerce platform to build, saving a high development cost and saves development time. An internationally renowned venture capital firms Goldman Sachs also said that if the success of e-commerce Belle, Belle International is expected to enhance the growth potential and to promote the company’s further growth in profit margins over an extended period.

In addition, we see that the automotive industry have begun to enter the era of network marketing in the United States by General Motors, Ford and Daimler-Chrysler Big Three auto makers formed a joint the world’s largest auto parts procurement network – Covey Vincent (COVISINT), Japan’s Nissan Motor Co. and France’s Renault has joined the procurement system. Major vehicle through the center with their tens of thousands of networking vendors. According to Ford statistics, through the network procurement, the cost per transaction is only 15 U.S. dollars, while the traditional methods of procurement transaction costs 150 U.S. dollars. The domestic market, auto companies have not yet settled in a large-scale online retail areas, but the corresponding network marketing has also been initiated.

All this indicates a direction, that is, the development of the traditional business of Internet marketing will become a mainstream of the future of marketing is an irreplaceable model of development. At present the number of Chinese Internet users has reached 384 million, ranking first in the world. The traditional process of commodity circulation of goods from the factory through the layers of the wholesale distributors, and finally to the retail terminal, to sell to consumers. Consumer goods in order to get paid a lot of channels costs. Through e-commerce facility in the future to sell their products directly to consumers, which among social costs would be substantial savings, including energy use. To the Internet, material on a cluster basis, through the development of electronic commerce barter so that people are expected to close to zero inventory, zero waste and zero transaction costs added new era. Data show that in 2009, Taobao transactions beyond 2000 billion yuan, total retail sales of social commodities in the gross domestic nearly 2%.

We are from the Ministry of Commerce has said, can clearly see that the current focus of the Ministry of Commerce, one of the work that is further supported by the traditional commercial enterprises, to promote e-commerce development, promote physical market and the online marketplace, to promote business enterprises to online sales drive store sales. Policy support and industry needs to form a whole together, and this is the best e-commerce into the speed of a signal. In fact, the rapid development of e-commerce market and the overall economic recovery is also a great benefit, because in a large extent, the introduction of e-commerce cost savings and circulation of large numbers of links, to avoid the intermediate links of the exploit, they will naturally have a even greater cost advantage. When a large number of traditional industries will be e-ready to make trouble, we have any reason not to optimistic about e-commerce development?
