  The work report of the Beijing Municipal Government in 2021 disclosed that during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, Beijing has 29,000 national high-tech enterprises and 93 unicorn enterprises.

The dual-engine role of the new generation of information technology and the medical and health industries continued to play, and the added value of high-tech industries and strategic emerging industries increased by 56.9% and 58.5% respectively.

  There is a "black lamp" factory in Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone. The 18,000-square-meter smart factory hardly turns on the lights. There are no workers in the workshop, but it has the ability to automatically produce a smartphone every second, which is more efficient than traditional The factory has increased by more than 60%.

  Behind the "Black Lamp" factory is artificial intelligence, 5G, big data and other technical support. The "most powerful brain" enables the machine to realize automated unmanned production in the whole process of inspection, motherboard processing, pre-assembly, and complete machine testing.

  In Beijing, there are many such smart manufacturing factories, constantly refreshing our understanding of manufacturing.

As one interviewee said vividly: "Beijing's manufacturing industry is not based on railways and sold by ton, but by plane, sold by grams!"

  During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, Beijing's industrial structure was deeply adjusted, and 2154 general manufacturing companies were withdrawn; Beijing focused on "high-precision" and focused on doing a good job of "cabbage heart", and the industry's digital and high-end characteristics were prominent.

  "The new generation of information technology and medical health are the'dual engines' of Beijing's high-end manufacturing industry." Tan Xuxiang, director of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission, said that high-end manufacturing has an obvious supporting role in economic development.

  According to the outline (draft) of Beijing's "14th Five-Year Plan", Beijing will expand and strengthen the medical and health industry, and cultivate a trillion-level industrial cluster that uses the biomedical industry to drive the development of large health manufacturing and services.

  During the COVID-19 pandemic, Beijing ran "acceleration" in the research and development of vaccines, diagnostic reagents, and drugs. Four COVID-19 vaccines developed in Beijing entered phase III clinical trials, and nine diagnostic reagent products were approved for marketing.

The pharmaceutical and health industry has become a "dark horse" driving the growth of the manufacturing industry.

  Data from the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics show that in 2020, the added value of Beijing's industrial enterprises above designated size will increase by 2.3%.

Among the key industries, the computer, communications and other electronic equipment manufacturing industry grew by 14.6%, the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry turned from a 2.3% decline in the first three quarters to an increase of 9.4%, and the automobile manufacturing industry grew by 5.7%.

  Promote the production of a batch of large-scale pharmaceutical production bases of more than 100,000 liters, such as macromolecular antibody drugs and innovative anti-tumor drugs, and support the landing of more than 10 international original innovative drugs such as new vaccines, next-generation antibodies, cell therapy, and new monoclonal antibodies... …Beijing’s "14th Five-Year Plan" outline (draft) points out the direction for the development of the pharmaceutical and health industry.

  Li Wenjun, member of the Beijing Political Consultative Conference and Chairman of Beijing Capital Pharmaceutical Holdings (Beijing) Co., Ltd., said that Beijing's biomedical industry should advance key technological breakthroughs, achieve "0 to 1" breakthroughs in new target drugs, and accelerate the construction of Beijing Original Innovative Medicine Center.

"The key to the pharmaceutical industry's transition from'following' to' running to'leading' is to have core technologies and original innovative drugs developed by itself." Li Wenjun said.

  Intelligent manufacturing leads industrial transformation and upgrading.

Beijing Sanyuan Gene Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., located in Daxing District, is an antiviral drug manufacturer, and the interferon produced is listed as a treatment for new coronary pneumonia.

Zhang Bin, investment director of Sanyuan Gene, said that the next step will be to expand the company's production capacity by about 10 times its current capacity, reaching an annual production capacity of 100 million pieces, and carry out the whole process and cross-departmental digital intelligence transformation from the supply side to the terminal. Further improve production efficiency.

  "After the traditional manufacturing process is basically completed, Beijing should make full use of the Internet infrastructure and the relatively rich foundation of digital talents, vigorously develop high-end manufacturing, and improve the manufacturing level and global competitiveness." At the ongoing CPPCC Beijing Zhu Bixin, member of the Beijing Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of China Chengtong Holding Group Co., Ltd., said at the press conference of the fourth meeting of the 13th Committee.

  In terms of vigorously developing a new generation of information technology industry, Beijing will cultivate a trillion-level new generation of information technology industry clusters, focusing on 5G, artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, Internet of Things, blockchain and other basic fields, and cultivate a group of core Leading enterprise with technological leadership.

  Tan Xuxiang said that Beijing will promote the deep integration of high-end manufacturing and modern service industries, build a sophisticated economic structure based on the real economy, create a globally competitive "Beijing Smart Manufacturing", and form a group of international influences. A powerful trillion-level advanced intelligent manufacturing industry cluster.
