　　In 2022, the three-year reform of state-owned enterprises will come to an end.

The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council of China revealed that in 2023, it will take advantage of the momentum to organize and carry out a new round of reform deepening and upgrading actions.

What is the "transcript" of reforms in the past three years?

　　The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council revealed that in the past three years, the reform of the three systems of state-owned enterprises (labor, personnel, and distribution systems) has been implemented on a larger scale, and the number of legal person households in central enterprises has been greatly reduced. The task of clearing and retiring "two capitals" (low-efficiency and invalid assets) has been basically completed, the problems left over by enterprises running society and history have been fully resolved, and the systems and mechanisms for encouraging scientific and technological innovation have been continuously improved.

　　Taking the old state-owned enterprise China First Heavy Industry as an example, the group reversed the plight of declining profits and losses for three consecutive years through reforms, and completely changed the prominent problems of state-owned enterprises such as extensive management and low efficiency.

In the past three years, the total profit of China First Heavy Industry has increased by 422.84%, the net profit has increased by 424.52%, and the operating income has increased by 209.92%.

　　It is worth noting that in the past three years, six new state-owned enterprises including China Star Network, China Rare Earth Group, China Electric Equipment, China Logistics Group, and China Mineral Resources have been born; Steel, etc. have been completed one after another, becoming an important window for the outside world to observe the three-year progress of state-owned enterprise reform.

　　Through these strategic reorganization and professional integration actions, the trajectory of state-owned economic layout optimization and structural adjustment is clearly visible.

In the past three years, the state-owned economy has accelerated its concentration in the fields of national security and national economy and people's livelihood.

According to statistics, more than 85% of the assets of central enterprises are concentrated in 20 major industries of the national economy, and the scale of assets in 13 major industries exceeds one trillion yuan, and the operating income related to national security and national economy and people's livelihood accounts for more than 70%.

　　A number of "aircraft carrier-level" central enterprises surfaced.

Take the steel "aircraft carrier" China Baowu as an example. At the end of 2022, China Baowu and Sinosteel will implement a reorganization.

This is the epitome of the group’s continuous integration and expansion: China Baowu was reorganized from the original Baosteel Group and Wuhan Iron and Steel Group in 2016;

In 2020, the output of Baowu Steel in China will reach 115 million tons, ranking first among global steel companies.

In 2021, China Baowu's operating performance will hit the best level in history.

　　China Baowu is not alone.

A number of state-owned enterprises have achieved leapfrog development after undergoing strategic restructuring.

According to statistics, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, 27 groups of 49 central enterprises have implemented strategic restructuring, and the number of central enterprises supervised by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council has been adjusted from 117 10 years ago to 98 at present.

　　How will the new round of reforms be implemented?

　　Seeking motivation from reform is the only way for high-quality development.

Peng Huagang, secretary-general of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, introduced that the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is focusing on improving the core competitiveness of enterprises and enhancing core functions, researching and planning a new round of reform plans for deepening state-owned assets and enterprises.

　　What areas will the new round of state-owned enterprise reform focus on?

Zhou Lisha, research director of the China Modern State-owned Enterprise Research Institute of Tsinghua University, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency that at present, state-owned enterprises still have the problem of insufficient market-based selection and employment. .

　　She believes that in the future, we will further promote the market-oriented reform of state-owned assets and state-owned enterprises, promote the reform of the three systems, actively and steadily promote the reform of mixed ownership and the professional manager system.

At the same time, promote the technological innovation and development of state-owned enterprises, increase investment in research and development, stabilize the scientific research talent team, and establish a sustainable scientific research investment mechanism and a competitive incentive mechanism.

　　"Through deepening reforms, maintain a reasonable growth in the scale of the state-owned economy, and promote the concentration of the state-owned economy in key industries, key areas, and strategic emerging areas that are related to the lifeline of the national economy." Zhou Lisha said.

　　Zhu Changming, partner of Sunshine Times Law Firm and head of the mixed reform of state-owned enterprises and employee stock ownership research center, told a reporter from China News Agency that in 2023, it is necessary to consolidate and deepen the achievements of the three-year reform of state-owned enterprises. Deepening and upgrading of the system and mechanism reform.

　　Zhu Changming said that if the three-year reform of state-owned enterprises is likened to the construction of "rough housing", the housing framework has been formed but the degree of refinement is insufficient; then the new round of deepening and upgrading of state-owned enterprise reform is "rough housing fine decoration", which will greatly improve The level of refinement of the state-owned enterprise system and mechanism.

He believes that the new round of state-owned enterprise reform will focus on mixed reform, three system reforms, medium and long-term incentives, and corporate governance.

　　Among them, he believes that professional integration will become the main means of reorganization and integration of central enterprises in the future due to its advantages of being more flexible and richer in content.
