不仅在数量上快速增长，而且利用外资的质量和水平有不小提高。上海市2001年以来，新批准了一批资金密集和技术密集的大项目，进一步加快了石油化工、电子信息、生物医药、汽车机械等产业的发展。且在不断增加的外商投资中，大企业、高新技术企业明显增多，一些大的跨国公司纷纷在中国建立研发中心，利用外资的整体水平明显提高。在北京，高新技术领域一直是被外商盯准的重点，尤以信息技术(IT)行业最为突出，服务贸易也不再局限于过去的房地产等单一领域，转而向商业等领域进军。

       In addition to rapid growth in numbers, the quality of foreign capital utilization has improved. Since early 2001, Shanghai has approved a group of capital-intensive and technology-intensive projects, which has accelerated the development of the petrochemical, electronic information, biomedical, automotive and machinery industries. Furthermore, more high-tech and other large enterprises have been established. Some multinationals have established research and development centers in China. The level of foreign capital utilization has therefore increased. In Beijing, high-tech and other new sectors have been the focus of foreign capital, particularly the information technology (IT) industry, and service trade is also no longer confined to the real estate sector, but has extended to commerce, among other fields.

       外经贸部新闻发言人高燕在第90届广交会上说，由于中国国民经济保持良好的发展势头和加入世贸组织，越来越多的投资者看好中国市场，看到了开放的中国日趋完善的投资环境和蕴藏的无限商机，他们对中国的未来充满信心。

    “Since the Chinese economy has maintained a steady development trend and China has become a formal member of the WTO, more and more investors are now optimistic about the Chinese market and the future of China in general, and have realized that the open China has an improved capital environment abounding in business opportunities.” Said Gao Yan, press spokesperson of MOFTEC, at the 90th Guangzhou Chinese Export Commodities Fair.
