By the end of February China has approved the setting up of 510,000 foreign-invested companies with contract foreign investment reaching $1.1 trillion and foreign investment in actual use reaching $570 billion, said Wang Jinzhen, deputy secretary-general of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), on the sideline of the China International Investment and Financing Forum held Thursday in Xi'an.

According to Wang Jinzhen since the 1990s China has moved into a fast lane in terms of foreign investment attraction. In the three years from 1992 to 1994 China attracted respectively more than $10 billion, $20 billion and $30 billion FDI. In the past 10 years China has been the country that attracts the most foreign investment among developing countries. In 2003 actually introduced foreign investment for the first time surpassed that in the US and became the first investment choice for global multinationals.
