HANGZHOU, Sept. 29 -- Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has called for greater efforts in deepening reform and opening-up, as well as unleashing market vitality in pushing the country's high-quality development.

Li, also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks during a research trip from Thursday to Friday in east China's Zhejiang Province.

During his stop at a pilot free trade zone in the city of Zhoushan, the premier urged deepening reforms to streamline government administration, delegating powers, improving regulation, and strengthening services to provide businesses and people with more convenience.

He also highlighted consistency in implementing policies on collecting social security contributions, calling for related efforts to lower corporate costs.

While visiting a privately-owned world-class petrochemical project, the premier stressed lowering entry barriers to major projects for private enterprises and offering them favorable policies and measures to strengthen their confidence in development.

In his visit to a sewing-machine producer in the city of Taizhou, Li recognized the firm as an example of upgrading traditional industries toward smart manufacturing.

He called for the cultivation of "hidden champions," which refer to relatively small but highly successful companies, by relying on innovation and quality upgrading, and stressed gaining new competitive strength through technological advances.
