加州:中國(guó)對(duì)美投資門(mén)戶(hù)
????所有這些會(huì)嚇跑很多投資人,,但可能?chē)槻蛔咧袊?guó)人,因?yàn)樗麄兯貋?lái)都不怎么懼怕風(fēng)險(xiǎn),。因此,,很多人或許就將加州視為價(jià)值被低估的投資品種,就像很多人看待為債務(wù)所困的希臘一樣,。而且,,在2008年以前,,中國(guó)向美國(guó)的投資非常少,。金融危機(jī)后幾年,蔓延全球的金融危機(jī)令中國(guó)公司更加堅(jiān)信不能再依賴(lài)出口或本土市場(chǎng)實(shí)現(xiàn)業(yè)務(wù)增長(zhǎng),,對(duì)美國(guó)的投資激增,。2000年至2007年,中國(guó)向加州年均投資不到2,500萬(wàn)美元,,2011年猛增至創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的5.60億美元,。 ????榮大聶和韓其洛呼吁加州人積極吸引中國(guó)投資。但做起來(lái)可能沒(méi)那么容易,,因?yàn)樗Q于加州人如何領(lǐng)會(huì)華盛頓立法者的調(diào)子,。本周早些時(shí)候,美國(guó)國(guó)會(huì)的一份報(bào)告警告稱(chēng),,中國(guó)最大的兩家電信設(shè)備公司華為(Huawei)和中興通訊(ZTE)向美國(guó)國(guó)內(nèi)市場(chǎng)的潛在擴(kuò)張威脅到了美國(guó)國(guó)家安全,。就在這份報(bào)告發(fā)布前幾天,美國(guó)總統(tǒng)奧巴馬罕見(jiàn)地否決了俄勒岡州一個(gè)中資風(fēng)電場(chǎng)項(xiàng)目,,理由是出于國(guó)家安全的考慮,。即便中國(guó)投資者打算在加州進(jìn)行更多投資,加州人似乎也不一定愿意同中國(guó)人做更多的生意。 |
????All that might scare off any investor, but perhaps not the Chinese, who haven't exactly been known for their aversion to risk. And so some may just see California as an undervalued investment, just as some have viewed debt-troubled Greece. Also, Chinese investments into the U.S. were miniscule prior to 2008. In the years following the financial crisis, investment surged as financial turmoil across the globe reinforced to Chinese firms that they couldn't just continue relying on exports or markets at home to grow their business. Whereas investments from China to California between 2000 to 2007 averaged less than $25 million a year, Chinese firms in 2011 invested a record $560 million. ????Rosen and Hanemann have called on Californians to actively lure Chinese investment. That may be easier said than done, though, depending on how Californians digest the tone Washington lawmakers have been setting. Earlier this week, a congressional report warned that the potential expansion of two of China's largest telecom firms -- Huawei and ZTE -- into the U.S. market threatened U.S. national security. Just a few days before the report was issued, President Obama, in a rare move, blocked a Chinese-owned wind farm project in Oregon, citing national security concerns. Even if Chinese investors may want to invest more in California, it's not necessarily guaranteed that Californians want to do more business with the Chinese. |
