China News Service, June 16th. According to the website of the National Bureau of Statistics, in response to the May 2021 industrial production data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, Changjiang Yuan, deputy director of the Department of Industry of the National Bureau of Statistics, interpreted on the 16th that in May, as the epidemic situation was coordinated The results of prevention and control and economic and social development have continued to be consolidated, industrial production has continued to recover steadily, high-tech manufacturing has grown rapidly, the consumer goods industry has accelerated its recovery, and exports have continued to grow rapidly.

  One is the continuous growth of industrial production.

In May, the national industrial added value above designated size increased by 8.8% year-on-year, and the growth rate dropped by 1.0 percentage point from the previous month.

Compared with the same month in 2019, the added value of the planned industrial sector increased by 13.6%, and the two-year average growth rate was 6.6% (based on the corresponding period in 2019 and calculated using the geometric average method), a decrease of 0.2 percentage points from the previous month, 1- In May, the two-year average growth rate was 7.0%, which was the same as that from January to April, continuing the trend of stable recovery.

From the perspective of the three categories, the mining industry, electricity, heat, gas and water production and supply industries increased by 3.2% and 11.0% respectively, and the two-year average growth rate was 2.1% and 7.2% respectively, and the growth rate has accelerated compared with the previous month; The industry grew by 9.0%, an average growth rate of 7.1% in two years, maintaining rapid growth.

  Second, most industries and products maintained growth.

In terms of different industries, in May, among 41 major industries, 36 industries grew year-on-year, and the industry growth rate was close to 90%; compared with the same month in 2019, 34 industries achieved growth, and the industry growth rate continued to remain above 80%.

In terms of product breakdown, among the 612 major industrial products, 428 products achieved year-on-year growth, and the growth area reached 70%.

  Third, the growth of high-tech manufacturing has accelerated significantly.

In May, the added value of the high-tech manufacturing industry increased by 17.5% year-on-year, and the two-year average growth rate was 13.1%. The growth rate was 4.8% and 1.5% higher than the previous month, which was 8.7 and 6.5 percentage points higher than all regulated industries, which continued to drive industry. produce.

The pharmaceutical manufacturing industry continued to grow strongly. In May, driven by the sharp increase in vaccine demand, it increased by 34.0% year-on-year, an increase of 15 percentage points from the previous month; the electronic and communication equipment manufacturing industry increased by 16.1%, an increase of 3.2 percentage points from the previous month; aerospace vehicles The manufacturing industry grew by 25.3%, an acceleration of 20.2 percentage points from the previous month.

The production of high-tech products continued to be relatively fast, with smart watches, industrial robots, service robots, carbon fiber and their composite materials increasing by 87.5%, 50.1%, 49.2%, and 43.3% respectively.

  Fourth, the growth rate of the consumer goods industry continued to pick up.

In May, the added value of the consumer goods manufacturing industry increased by 9.7% year-on-year, and the two-year average growth rate was 4.4%. The growth rate was 2.1 and 0.3 percentage points faster than the previous month.

Among them, the cultural, educational and sporting goods and furniture manufacturing industries increased by 24.2% and 20.8% year-on-year respectively, continuing to maintain rapid growth; the agricultural and sideline food processing and food manufacturing industries increased by 7.3% and 3.6% respectively year-on-year, both faster than the previous month.

  Fifth, the equipment manufacturing industry maintained double-digit growth.

In May, the added value of the equipment manufacturing industry increased by 10.9% year-on-year, and the two-year average growth rate was 10.2%. It continued to maintain a double-digit growth, and the growth rate was 2.1 and 3.6 percentage points higher than that of all regulated industries.

In terms of different industries, the metal products, electrical machinery, and general equipment industries increased by 19.2%, 18.7%, and 13.8% respectively, maintaining rapid growth; the electronics industry was driven by the rising volume and prices of integrated circuits and electronic components, with a year-on-year increase of 12.7%, compared with the previous year. It accelerated by 2.3 percentage points last month.

In terms of products, the output of new energy vehicles continued to double in May; the output of discrete semiconductor devices, semiconductor storage disks, monocrystalline silicon, integrated circuits and other products increased by 59.1%, 56.6%, 44.1%, and 37.6%, respectively, and the growth rate was higher than that. This has accelerated last month.

  Sixth, the export of industrial products has grown rapidly.

In May, the export delivery value of industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 16.9% year-on-year, a decline from the previous month, but still maintained a rapid growth trend.

Among the main export industries, the automobile, metal products, and chemical industries increased by 84.7%, 51.8%, and 37.7% respectively, and the growth rate continued to accelerate; pharmaceuticals, electrical machinery, and general equipment maintained rapid growth of more than 20%.

  Jiang Yuan said that overall, industrial production maintained a stable recovery trend in May, but it should also be noted that there are still many external uncertainties and unstable factors, the uneven growth of industries and enterprises is still prominent, and the rise in commodity prices is aimed at China. The influence of downstream industries has increased, the interruption and blockage of the supply chain of the industrial chain still exist, and the foundation for the stable recovery of the industrial economy is not yet solid.

In the next step, we must continue to take effective measures to cope with the rapid rise in commodity prices and its associated effects, strengthen collaborative innovation between the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, continue to consolidate the momentum of stable recovery of the industrial economy, and strive to promote the dynamic balance of supply and demand.
