In 2021, the added value of industries above designated size nationwide will increase by 9.6% over the previous year——
The role of industrial "ballast stone" is stronger
Our reporter Wang Junling
A few days ago, the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that in 2021, the stability and modernization of China's industrial chain and supply chain will continue to improve, and the endogenous driving force for high-quality development will be further enhanced, providing strong support for macroeconomic growth.
Overall, China's industrial economy has maintained its recovery and development, and the development of informatization has made positive progress. The "14th Five-Year Plan" has achieved a good start.
In 2022, we must place the stable growth of the industry in an important position, do a good job in pre-adjustment, fine-tuning and cross-cycle adjustment, focus on improving the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry, focus on promoting the stable operation of the industrial economy, improve quality and efficiency, and keep the proportion of the manufacturing industry basically stable. Make the real economy stronger and better.
showing many positive characteristics
In 2021, the added value of industries above designated size nationwide will increase by 9.6% over the previous year, 6.8 percentage points faster than that in 2020, and an average growth rate of 6.1% over the two years.
Tian Yulong, chief engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that the overall operation of the industrial economy in 2021 will show positive characteristics in many aspects:
The industrial economy continued to recover.
The full-year industrial capacity utilization rate in 2021 will be 77.5%, an increase of 3 percentage points from the previous year.
Enterprise efficiency has improved significantly. In the first 11 months of last year, industrial enterprises above designated size achieved a year-on-year increase of 38% in profits, an average increase of 18.9% in the two years, and a profit margin of operating income of 6.98%, which is a relatively high level in recent years.
Industrial exports maintained rapid growth. The delivery value of industrial exports above designated size increased by 17.7% year-on-year, with an average growth of 8.3% in the two years. Exports also showed a growth trend.
Key industries maintained growth momentum.
In 2021, 39 of the 41 major industrial sectors will maintain growth, and 15 industries will grow by more than double digits.
The added value of the raw material manufacturing industry increased by 5% year-on-year, with an average growth rate of 4.1% in the two years.
At the same time, rising raw material prices have brought profit growth, contributing 60% to the overall industrial profit growth.
The added value of the equipment manufacturing industry increased by 12.9% year-on-year, with an average growth rate of 9.7% in the two years, contributing more than 40% to the overall industrial growth.
Driven by the "home economy" and external demand, the electronics industry maintained double-digit growth in both industrial added value and export delivery value.
The industrial structure has been continuously optimized.
Manufacturing investment will be adjusted and optimized. In 2021, manufacturing investment will increase by 13.5% year-on-year, and high-tech manufacturing investment will increase by 22.2%.
Driven by investment, the added value of high-tech manufacturing increased by 18.2% year-on-year.
Intelligent and upgraded emerging products have grown rapidly, and the output of industrial robots, integrated circuits and other emerging products has grown rapidly, especially new energy vehicles, with production and sales exceeding 3.5 million units, a year-on-year increase of 1.6 times.
Proactively address risk challenges
In response to the impact of epidemic prevention and control on the industrial economy, Tian Yulong emphasized that data on China's economic growth, especially industrial economic growth, show that the current epidemic prevention and control policies are beneficial to the industrial chain and supply chain.
It is precisely because of adhering to the "zero" epidemic prevention strategy that China can take the lead in resuming work and production in the world, and the stability and security of the industrial chain and supply chain have been guaranteed.
Tian Yulong said that the domestic epidemic has spread in many places, and some cities have taken some control.
This may have some local effects on the industrial chain and supply chain in some regions, but it is short-term and limited in scope, and has no major impact on the macro industrial chain.
In particular, as the policies for epidemic prevention and control become more and more precise, the stability and security of the industrial chain and supply chain can be guaranteed.
Regarding the shortage of automotive chips, Luo Junjie, director of the Operation Monitoring and Coordination Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that integrated circuits are a highly globalized industry.
China is the world's largest integrated circuit market, and is committed to building a global close cooperation, a sustainable and stable industrial chain and supply chain.
At present, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has been paying close attention and actively responding, taking multiple measures to ensure the supply of chips and maintain the stable operation of the automobile industry.
"With the gradual effect of the market adjustment mechanism and the joint efforts of governments at all levels, automobile companies, and chip companies, the problem of 'lack of cores' in the automotive field is gradually being alleviated. However, we must also see that the stability of the global integrated circuit supply chain There are still severe challenges. For a long time to come, the supply of such chips will remain in a tight state." Luo Junjie said.
Do a good job of "strengthening the chain" article
In 2021, the industrial economy will continue to recover steadily, and the production and operation of enterprises will improve significantly.
However, the continuous spread of overseas epidemics and the frequent occurrence of domestic epidemics have caused adverse effects. Some blockages and stuck points in China's domestic industrial chain and supply chain are still obvious, and downstream small, medium and micro enterprises still face great difficulties in production and operation.
In this regard, Xiao Yaqing, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the manufacturing industry to strengthen the chain and complement the chain, and promote the construction of "chain-owner" enterprises and upstream and downstream enterprises to build a collaborative innovation complex and a stable supporting complex, and form a "chain-owner" enterprise as the core. An industrial ecosystem that integrates the development of centers, large and medium-sized enterprises.
For example, vigorously promote the reengineering of industrial bases and key core technologies, and launch a number of industrialization engineering projects around bottlenecks and shortcomings; promote innovation and development, and improve the development level of industrial mother machines, medical equipment, agricultural machinery equipment, and new materials.
"The stability and security of the industrial chain and supply chain is the key to maintaining the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry. Last year, the industrial economy resumed growth. The proportion of the added value of the manufacturing industry in the GDP increased to 27.4% in the first three quarters, and the proportion of the manufacturing industry remained basically stable. Tian Yulong said that in the future, it is necessary to improve the industrial technology foundation, enhance the industrial technology innovation capability, promote the further strengthening of the resilience of the industrial chain and supply chain, increase efforts to boost investment in the manufacturing industry, and comprehensively improve the integrity, resilience and level of the industrial chain .
Luo Junjie said that the relevant departments will launch more powerful and effective policy measures from the aspects of finance, taxation and finance, guaranteeing supply and stabilizing prices, and supporting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. development, and play a good role as a "ballast stone" for stabilizing the economic market.
"Accurately break through the blocking points of the industrial chain and supply chain, focus on solving the problems of enterprises' lack of cores," "lack of cabinets," and "lack of labor", strengthen the coordination of energy, logistics, labor and other factors, and give priority to ensuring the stable operation of the supply chain of key industrial chains. ."
