Abstract TPP(Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement) is one of the most important FTA(Free Trade Area).Combining related FTA theory,the paper extends the existing heterogeneous firms trade model and analyzes the effect of TPP on the China’s foreign trade and investment and the corresponding measures which China should take.The paper finds that TPP will exert very different effects on China and America.The trade liberalization which TPP want to promote will restrain China’s trade and FDI,but promote America’s export and inward FDI.At present stage,China is less likely to join in the TPP.Promoting the domestic demand and establishing the China/Japan/Korea FTA can alleviate the negative effect that TPP may exert on China.
