China has seen an increasing demand for imported goods from its consumers. The recently-wrapped up third round of trade talks between China and the US could better meet the needs of the Chinese people. But it also follows China's own path and pace of economic reform and opening up. Our reporter Wang Hui has the details.

Fruit, meat and pasta. Chinese consumers have seen more imported goods in the market. And such goods are not only popular in big cities, but also small ones. Yan Jing comes from a smaller city. When she was little, she did not have a lot of exposure to imported products. But things have certainly changed.

YAN JING CONSUMER "I visited my hometown recently. I found there are even dedicated areas for imported goods in some stores. I was really surprised."

And Chinese people are welcoming the increase in imported products.

LU LIHAN CONSUMER "Different from my parents' generation, we are pursuing a higher quality of life, and imported goods provide us more options. I found some of them are pretty good."

And in the near future, Chinese consumers are likely to see in their daily lives more imported goods, including American ones. After the latest round of trade talks between China and the US, Beijing says it's willing to increase imports from the United States and the rest of the world. Discussions also centered on agriculture and energy. Beijing says details still need to be confirmed and ironed out. But at Monday's press conference by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the spokesperson didn't make it clear if there would be another round of talks to address these details. But she did stress China's consistent stance.

HUA CHUNYING CHINESE FOREIGN MINISTRY SPOKESPERSON "The door to negotiations and consultations is always open, and we are sincere in wanting to resolve relevant issues through negotiations."

WANG HUI BEIJING "It's been a month since the first round of trade negotiations. Washington's style is a mix of negotiations and threats, with unexpected moves sprinkled in. Beijing has been clear that all achievements to be reached in the third round of talks should be based on the premise that there won't be a trade war, and that the US should refrain from further sanctions. But trade issues will likely continue to go up and down. China will continue to protect its own interests, and follow its own pace of economic reform and opening-up, regardless of what the US does.
