After spending a few days in Beijing, it was abundantly clear that China is undergoing a boom in Internet use, including as a consumer platform. Online commerce is offsetting some of the other weaker areas of the economy, and its full impact might actually be underreported in official statistics.
外国观察者频繁预测中国当局也许有意高估了经济的强度。但同样可能的是一些部门的规模被低估了。在北京的几天中，很明显中国正处于互联网应用的热潮中，包括将其作为消费平台。在线商务抵消了经济其他领域的弱势，其完全影响力在官方数据中实际是被低估的。
