Zhongxin Finance, February 28. On the 28th, the State Council Information Office held a press conference on promoting the smooth operation of industry and informatization and improving quality and upgrading. Xin Guobin, deputy minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that it will further support the coordination of vehicle, parts, and chip companies. Innovate, steadily and orderly improve the domestic chip production and supply capacity.
It is understood that in 2021, my country's chip production will increase by 33.3%.
With the joint efforts of all parties, the supply of automotive chips has achieved phased results, as shown in the recovery of the monthly production and sales of automobiles in my country since the fourth quarter of last year.
Judging from the monitoring of key auto companies, although the supply shortage of automotive chips has gradually eased, there is still a certain gap compared to the demand and production scheduling plans of vehicle and parts companies.
Considering that the world's major chip companies have increased the production and supply of automotive-grade chips, new production capacity will also be released this year, and the supply capacity of some domestic chip products is also gradually improving. It is expected that the supply situation of automotive chips will continue to improve.
Xin Guobin said that in the next step, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will take multiple measures to maintain the stable operation of the automobile industry, focusing on the following aspects:
The first is to strengthen the connection between supply and demand. On the basis of past work, we must build an online supply and demand connection platform for automotive chips, unblock information channels for chip production and supply, and improve the upstream and downstream cooperation mechanisms in the industrial chain.
The second is to increase production coordination.
Guide vehicle and parts companies to optimize supply chain layout, rationally schedule production, help each other, improve resource allocation efficiency, and minimize the impact of core shortages.
The configuration efficiency of chips is also very important. Some companies have products that are marketable, and the shortage of chips has a greater impact; some companies' products have not been recognized by consumers, so even if they get some chips, no one is willing to buy the products they produce. , it will cause a resource mismatch for the entire industry.
The third is to improve the chip supply capacity.
Further support the collaborative innovation of vehicle, parts, and chip companies, and steadily and orderly improve domestic chip production and supply capabilities.
At the same time, there are still shortcomings in our application testing and evaluation system, and we will further increase our efforts in this regard this year.
Fourth, strengthen international cooperation.
Automobile is a highly internationalized industry. We must adhere to the direction of globalization, promote multinational chip companies to increase supply in the Chinese market, increase localized production layout, and enhance the resilience and stability of the industrial chain and supply chain.
