Since the family planning policy was put into effect, the aging of the China’s population has become more and more serious, which has hindered China’s economic and social development. In order to alleviate or even change this trend, China has decided to encourage childbirth and has successively issued the universal two-child policy and Three-child policy. This article adopts literature research and case analysis methods to study the effect of the adjustment of fertility policies on China’s national economy and society from six aspects. At the same time, the influence of Japan’s fertility policy on China’s fertility policy in response to its “Sub-replacement fertility” problem, which has similar population issues to China, was analyzed. Finally, based on the analysis of the changes brought about by the adjustment of the fertility policy in China, several suggestions were put forward for the adjustment of China’s fertility policy based on future population trends, providing a reference for the formulation of China’s fertility policy.
