Emerging industries have become an important new driving force for promoting transformation and upgrading and enhancing industrial resilience.

First, vigorously cultivate advanced manufacturing clusters and accelerate the development of emerging industries such as new displays, smart photovoltaics, and new materials.

The second is to organize a three-year action plan for the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, implement intelligent manufacturing projects, and accelerate the construction of major equipment industry chains and supply chains.

The third is to compile a low-carbon technology roadmap for key industries and carry out green and low-carbon technological transformation.

The fourth is to organize the "three products" nationwide campaign, and continue to promote a new round of new energy vehicles to the countryside and green building materials to the countryside to improve supply and stimulate the vitality and potential of consumption.
