In China, many regions are suitable for carrying out entrepot trade. Firstly, Hong Kong, as a world - renowned free trade port, has a complete financial system, a convenient transportation network, free access of goods, and no foreign exchange control, which is conducive to the flexible allocation of funds. Secondly, Shanghai, as China's economic center, has powerful port facilities, such as Yangshan Port, with dense shipping routes, which can easily connect to major markets around the world, and the surrounding industrial supporting facilities are complete. Thirdly, Shenzhen, adjacent to Hong Kong, has excellent ports such as Yantian Port, and also has an active trading atmosphere and a mature logistics industry chain.
