Compared with last year, the total operating income of 500 listed companies this year was nearly $30 trillion, an increase of 8.3%. Judging from the number of listed companies, China has reached 120 this year, which is very close to the United States (120) and far exceeds the third Japanese (50).
This kind of global authoritative data can directly reflect the latest development trends of various industries in China and the trends of enterprises in China. Among them, in the field of Internet industry, China Company "leads quickly"; In the automobile field, relying on the strong development of independent brands, China automobile enterprises rank quickly and steadily; In the field of real estate, China enterprises are more dominant.
A more crucial indicator is that among all enterprises, China, the top 10 company, occupies 8 seats, which fully shows the high-quality economic development of China in the past year and the great vitality of different industries driven by innovation.
Internet: relying on innovation to "get ahead" quickly, the money-making effect is bursting.
In the Fortune Global 500 list published by Fortune magazine in 20 18, China and the United States, as important innovation drivers of the global economy, have three companies on the list this year, namely JD.COM( 18 1), Alibaba (300) and Tencent (33/).
Among them, Alibaba ranked 162, Tencent ranked 147, and JD.COM moved forward 80 places again. Tencent is the most profitable and efficient enterprise in China.
The ranking change of Internet companies in China is the biggest highlight of the list of the world's top 500 companies in the last two years, and it also highlights the rapid development and importance of China's Internet economy.
Why can Internet companies in China "get ahead quickly"?
In addition to being driven by the development of the world's leading mobile Internet, the emphasis on "innovation" is also considered to be one of the main reasons.
At present, Tencent's social product WeChat, which is incubated through internal innovation, has gained more than 654.38 billion users and continues to lead the social field in China. JD.COM said that in 20 17, GMV of JD.COM Group successfully broke through the trillion mark, approaching 1.3 trillion yuan, and its annual net income reached 362.3 billion yuan, which is the innovation drive of unbounded retail.
In addition, Alibaba also takes "new retail" as the development focus, which greatly promotes the pace of online service expansion to offline, and also brings rapid growth to Alibaba.
Automobile: "One liter and one drop" highlights the importance of independent brands
In the Fortune 500 auto list, 23 auto companies were shortlisted in 2065438+2008 * *, and 6 in China.
It is worth noting that the rankings of most foreign car companies have declined, and even Toyota, which ranks at the top, has dropped by one place. This fully shows that under the impact of new energy and intelligent networking technology, the automobile market is in a period of fierce change, and the automobile industry is facing great challenges.
However, relying on the huge market and the continuous improvement of independent brands, the ranking of China automobile enterprises continued to advance, and SAIC, Dongfeng, BAIC, FAW, GAC and Geely continued to be shortlisted, ranking 36, 65, 124, 125, 202 and 267 respectively.
In fact, if the time axis is lengthened, it is more obvious that China automobile enterprises are growing rapidly and have become an indispensable force in the global automobile market.
In 20 12, when Geely Holding was shortlisted for the first time, its revenue was $23.3 billion, ranking 475th. In 20 17, Geely Holding's total annual revenue was 278.2 billion yuan, up 33% over the same period, and its ranking was greatly improved to 267th this year. The development speed of Guangzhou Automobile Group is even more rapid. From 20 13, it ranked 482 for the first time, and reached 202 in just 6 years, ranking 280 places higher.
On the one hand, China's huge automobile market is the support of China's automobile enterprises. On the other hand, China's automobile enterprises have continuously strengthened the development of their own brands and promoted the rapid progress of market share through supply-side reform and innovation.
For example, Guangzhou Automobile Group added 4 12 patent applications in the first half of this year, with a total of 3,807 patent applications. In order to strengthen R&D capability, Guangzhou Automobile Los Angeles Prospective Design Center was unveiled in April this year, and began to integrate overseas superior resources to enhance R&D and design strength.
Real estate: All listed companies are from China.
In this year's Fortune Global 500 list, the number of housing enterprises has roughly maintained the scale of last year, with both losers and newcomers. The rankings of Evergrande (230), Greenland (252) and Country Garden (353) have all climbed, while some large enterprises with real estate business, such as China Resources (86), COFCO (122), Poly (3 12) and Jianfa (362).
Among the enterprises with improved rankings, Country Garden and Evergrande climbed rapidly. Evergrande rose by 108 compared with last year, ranking 230th; Compared with last year, Country Garden advanced 1 14, ranking 353rd. Compared with the above two enterprises with obvious progress, Greenland has advanced 25 places, ranking 252 nd, giving up the position of "leader" of traditional housing enterprises, while Vanke ranked 332 nd this year, down 25 places from last year.
It is worth noting that all the real estate enterprises in this year's Fortune Global 500 list are from China, which is also a remarkable feature of the real estate industry in the Fortune Global 500 list.
So, why are all listed real estate enterprises from China?
At present, whether in the United States or other countries, compared with other industries, the real estate industry is difficult to dominate. In developed countries such as Europe, America and Japan, due to the saturation of urbanization, the real estate development market is restricted. Regional restrictions make it difficult for real estate enterprises to form multinational enterprises, which is also an important reason.
In contrast, China has a vast territory, and there is still huge room for urbanization, which provides huge development potential for large real estate enterprises. In recent years, the positive transformation, upgrading and diversification of real estate enterprises have also helped enterprises to obtain more income than their main business.
For example, Country Garden Group, which made the list for the first time last year, has become one of the fastest growing companies on the list this year. In 20 17, the contracted sales of country garden reached 550.8 billion yuan, ranking first in the industry, and reached 41249 million yuan in the first half of this year. While the scale performance has increased significantly, Country Garden attaches great importance to cash flow management and strives to improve its hematopoietic capacity. The net operating cash flow has been positive for two consecutive years.
Judging from the list of listed real estate enterprises, it is not only large in scale, but also highly competitive in the market. In this sense, it is not surprising that China real estate enterprises are leading the world.
Household appliances: it has been advancing, and the brand image needs more efforts.
In this list of the world's top 500 enterprises, only two household appliances enterprises in China were shortlisted, and Midea Group ranked 323rd, up127th from last year, ranking among the world's top 500 enterprises for three consecutive years, while Haier ranked 499th, which can only be regarded as barely catching the last bus.
However, in the "Dragon and Tiger List" with the fastest progress, Midea is the only household appliance enterprise in China.
In 20 16, Midea Group was among the Fortune 500 companies for the first time, becoming the first household appliance enterprise in China. In just three years, Midea's group ranking rose rapidly from 48 1 at the beginning to the top 400 seats. At the same time, it has changed from a large-scale comprehensive enterprise group with home appliance manufacturing as its main business to a science and technology group for consumer home appliances, HVAC, robots and automation systems, and intelligent supply chain (logistics).
From 20 17, there was only one household appliance enterprise in the United States, and this year, two household appliance enterprises were shortlisted. This shows that home appliance enterprises in China have been making progress. At present, Midea, Gree and Haier, the three giants of China's home appliance enterprises, are quite influential internationally.
However, we should also see that compared with the number of domestic home appliance enterprises, there are still relatively few enterprises in the top 500 of the world in 20 18. At the same time, many domestic home appliance enterprises have a long history and high popularity in China, but they have never been able to enter the Fortune 500. At present, Midea and Haier can be regarded as white power enterprises, but when it comes to black power enterprises, they are far from being on the list.
In the past two years, domestic appliance enterprises have been struggling to transform, but it will take time to test the effectiveness. Affected by the overall downturn of the domestic black electricity industry and the lack of core technologies, TCL, Hisense, Skyworth, Konka, Changhong and other black electricity groups have not achieved satisfactory revenue and profit growth in the past two years, and they are still in a painful period of transformation. In the white electricity industry, except for the three giants, the market competition in various segments is still high, and there are no truly influential enterprises in the world.
Even Haier, which focuses on the rapid progress of beauty and enters the list for the first time, is still lower in profit, profit margin and return on equity than other outstanding global enterprises on the list, which means that these two enterprises still have a lot of room for improvement, and home appliance enterprises should still pay more attention to technological innovation and brand image in the future.
