Vice Minister Shao Ning also says China's banks and other top state companies, will be required to hand over more profits to the government.

Shao gave no payment target but said the "ideal ratio" would be equal to the percentage of profits that publicly traded Chinese companies pay out to shareholders. The state companies currently pay 10 to 15 percent of profits to the government.

SASAC oversees 121 of China's biggest companies, including oil giant PetroChina, Bank of China and China Mobile. SASAC's companies earned 1.1 trillion yuan last year, and turned over 60 billion yuan to the government.
