China News Service, Beijing, December 29 (Reporter Sun Zifa) The "2021 China Manufacturing Power Development Index Report" released by the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the National Manufacturing Power Construction Strategy Advisory Committee in Beijing on the 29th shows that China's manufacturing power development index will be 2015-2020 From 105.78 to 116.02, the overall trend of China's manufacturing industry is stable and improving.

In 2020, although China is still in the third array of the global manufacturing industry, the gap with the first and second arrays will continue to narrow.

  Experts said that in 2020, China's manufacturing power development index has been very close to Japan's level. According to the established plan, we will continue to vigorously promote the strategy of manufacturing power. China can enter the second array of global manufacturing powers in 2025 and enter the ranks of manufacturing powers.

  The latest "2021 China Manufacturing Power Development Index Report" shows that in 2020, facing the complicated international environment and the arduous and arduous tasks of domestic reform, development and stability, especially under the severe impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic and the Sino-US trade dispute, China The manufacturing industry has withstood a huge test. Comparing China, the United States, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, South Korea, Brazil, and India, the complete advantages of the system are fully demonstrated: the only growth in scale advantages, the basic stability of quality and efficiency, and the improvement of innovation momentum , The strong foundation has achieved initial results, and the green and low-carbon practice is vigorous.

The ranking of these 9 countries in the 2020 manufacturing power development index and their arrays have not changed compared to 2019; at the same time, although China is still in the third array of global manufacturing, it is far behind the first and second array countries in the manufacturing power development index Constantly shrinking, the pace of catching up continues to accelerate.

  The report concluded that from 2015 to 2020, China's Manufacturing Power Development Index increased from 105.78 to 116.02.

The overall trend of China's manufacturing industry is stable and improving, and the market has achieved rapid response. It reflects the strong mobilization and organization ability of various production factors, and shows the "resilience" of facing difficulties and getting more and more courageous. The process of building a strong manufacturing country is basically in accordance with With the expected goal advancing, the strategy of a manufacturing powerhouse has become a banner leading the transformation, upgrading and innovative development of China's manufacturing industry.

  At the press conference of the "2021 China Manufacturing Power Development Index Report" held that day, Academician Shan Zhongde, President of Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and Academician Zhu Gaofeng, former Executive Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, introduced and interpreted the report respectively.

Shan Zhongde pointed out that China's manufacturing industry has a complete system and continues to develop to the mid-to-high end, is accelerating its integration into the global industrial chain, and its competitiveness continues to increase.

Under the major changes unseen in the current century, the global economic development from 2021-2025 is likely to show more ups and downs and significant fluctuations. However, under the international consensus of "no yaw, no stall, no collision", it can still be In the short-term fluctuations, the broad context of medium and long-term stable development has been explored.

  He said that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China's manufacturing industry should strengthen its work in six areas: first, it is necessary to work hard to reverse the distortion of factor prices and resource mismatches caused by the "removal of real to virtual" of China's economic development, and to improve real estate, finance, and entities. The tendency of the investment direction and rate of return between the economies to be unbalanced, improve the market system, and maintain a basically stable proportion of the manufacturing industry; second, we must further strengthen the national strategic scientific and technological strength, and strive to build a complete industrial system that matches China's manufacturing industry and meets the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry. An innovation system for major needs, to create various high-level innovation platforms, and effectively enhance innovation capabilities; third, we must accelerate the assessment of industrial basic capabilities, accurately identify the "stuck neck" and "shortcomings" links, and develop common technologies, high-end technologies, and forward-looking technologies We will guide the market to concentrate input on the elements of the industrial chain, and continue to consolidate the industrial foundation; fourth, we must improve profitability, and strive to build a group of large-scale integrated projects with strong core competitiveness, obvious leading role, and international influence Enterprise groups, cultivate a group of “specialized, special new” and “single champion” enterprises that master unique skills in subdivisions, and accelerate the cultivation of outstanding enterprises; The inventory restriction mechanism based on carbon emissions, pollutant emissions, and total energy consumption focuses on reducing resource consumption; sixth, we must continuously improve product quality and reliability, encourage excellent manufacturing companies to "go global" and participate in international cooperation, and make every effort to build well-known brands. Accelerate the realization of the staged strategic goals of a manufacturing powerhouse.

  Academician Zhu Gaofeng said that from the forecast results, in 2020, China's manufacturing power development index will be very close to the level of Japan. Following the current development trend, we will continue in accordance with the established plan under the premise of no major changes in the domestic and foreign macroeconomic environment. By vigorously advancing the strategy of a manufacturing powerhouse, China will be able to enter the second array of global manufacturing powers by 2025 and become a manufacturing powerhouse.

  He reminded that it must be clearly recognized that the development of China’s manufacturing industry benefits from multiple dividends such as the advantages of a complete industrial system and a broad market advantage, and the contribution rate of the “quality benefit” sub-item to the development index of manufacturing powers still needs to be improved. The increase in R&D investment in the whole society has not focused on the manufacturing industry, and the problem of unbalanced, uncoordinated and inadequate development of China's manufacturing industry is still prominent.

In the context of intertwined structural, institutional, and cyclical issues, maintaining macro stability has become the top priority of China's economic development.

China’s manufacturing industry must focus on the long-term, grasp the current situation, solve a series of external and internal issues such as the reality and the virtual, the market, the capital, the concept, the style of work, the decision-making mechanism, the talents and the structure, and unswervingly promote the manufacturing power, China’s manufacturing power. The goal will be achieved, and it will be achieved.

  It is understood that the "Manufacturing Power Development Index" has been continuously released every year since 2015 and has now become an authoritative index for objectively evaluating the overall level of China's manufacturing industry.

The launch of the "2021 China Manufacturing Power Development Index Report" was organized by the Strategic Consulting Center of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the China National Academy of Mechanical Sciences Group Co., Ltd., and the National Industrial Information Security Development Research Center. The honorary chairman of the Presidium of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, the National Manufacturing Power Construction Strategic Advisory Committee Academician Zhou Ji, the director, Zhong Zhihua, deputy dean of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and academicians and experts such as Zhu Gaofeng, Gan Yong, Chen Jianfeng, Shan Zhongde, Qu Xianming, Jiao Dong, Wang Decheng, Jiang Yan, etc. attended the press conference.
