文章认为，国际经济竞争包括国外竞争和国内竞争两个方面，一是我国经济在国际市场面临的竞争；二是我国国内市场表现的国际竞争。我国参与国际市场经济竞争的主要形式是对外贸易。改革开放以来，我国的对外贸易取得了很大成就，但主要是利用国内廉价的劳动力和土地、原材料等资源，生产具有价格竞争优势的产品参与国际市场竞争，其经济增长方式极为粗放。在国内市场表现的国际竞争方面，国外和海外跨国公司等大举进入中国市场，使我国民族工业受到严峻挑战。文章强调，在国际竞争日趋激烈的形势下，粗放型的经济增长方式必然使中国逐步丧失其在国际经济竞争中的原有优势。因此，必须实现我国经济增长方式从粗放型向集约型的根本转变，把经济发展转到依靠科技进步和提高各种物质要素的使用效率的轨道上来，才能真正在国际经济竞争中立于不败之地 The article holds that the international economic competition includes two aspects: foreign competition and domestic competition. The first is the competition that the Chinese economy faces in the international market. The second is the international competition in the performance of the domestic market in our country. The main form of China’s participation in the international market economy competition is foreign trade. Since the reform and opening up, China’s foreign trade has made great achievements. However, it mainly uses cheap domestic labor, land, raw materials and other resources to produce products with competitive prices and compete in the international market. The economic growth mode is extremely extensive. In terms of international competition in the domestic market, foreign and overseas multinational corporations have entered the Chinese market in large numbers, which has severely challenged our national industry. The article emphasizes that under the increasingly fierce international competition, the extensive mode of economic growth inevitably causes China to gradually lose its original advantages in the international economic competition. Therefore, we must realize the fundamental transformation of our economic growth mode from extensive mode to intensive mode and turn our economic development onto the track of relying on scientific and technological progress and improving the efficiency of using various material elements, so as to truly remain invincible in the international economic competition Ground
