The new generation of domestic products is out of the circle.
Recently, the last networking satellite of the Beidou-3 Global Satellite Navigation System and the 55th Beidou Navigation Satellite were successfully launched, and the deployment of the constellation of the Beidou Global Satellite Navigation System was completed. Some American media believe that this means that China will get rid of American technology in this field.
Recall that in the 1980s, Chinese manufacturing had just begun to recover. Today, China has leapt into a global manufacturing power. From Beidou to 5G, from high-speed rail to space station, from new energy vehicles to large aircraft, domestic goods have already risen and are setting off a new wave for this era.
From "Made in China" to "Made in China", Chinese companies are climbing up the global value chain
In the 1970s, there was a saying called "three turns and one ring", which was the "luxury product" of the family at that time. "Three turns" refers to watches, bicycles and sewing machines, and "one ring" refers to radios. Now, every computer, air conditioner and washing machine are standard.
From "can't afford, can't buy", to updating at any time, this reflects the huge changes in China's manufacturing industry since the reform and opening up.
According to data from the World Bank, in terms of current US dollars, my country’s manufacturing value added exceeded that of the United States for the first time in 2010 and became the world’s largest manufacturing country. Since then, it has been ranked first in the world for many consecutive years. In 2017, the added value of my country's manufacturing industry accounted for 27% of the world's share, becoming an important engine driving global industrial growth.
However, although my country is a major manufacturing country, the manufacturing industry has long been at the low-end of the industrial value chain, with low-end overcapacity coexisting with insufficient supply of high-end products.
The current pattern is changing, with the accelerated integration of a new generation of information technology and manufacturing as the main line, and advanced manufacturing with smart manufacturing as the main attack direction is accelerating the historical leap in manufacturing from large to strong.
In this leap, we have to mention Huawei, which awes the international competitors. 32 years ago, in a residential building in Shenzhen, Huawei had only five or six people and more than 20,000 yuan of venture capital. Today, 32 years later, its products and services cover more than 170 countries, and 14 R&D centers have been established in North America, Europe, Japan, India and China.
At the same time, as electrification, networking, intelligence, and sharing have become the development trend and trend of the automotive industry, BYD, a new energy vehicle leader started with batteries, has achieved a compound revenue growth rate from 2014 to 2018. 22.3%, to achieve rapid growth. At present, BYD has established more than 30 industrial parks around the world, realizing the strategic layout of the world's six continents.
Recently, the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) also released the list of the most innovative global companies in 2020. According to the latest list, Huawei ranked among the top ten most innovative companies, ranking sixth, followed by Alibaba, and last year. This is an increase of 16 bits. After a year of separation, Tencent and Xiaomi once again returned to the top 50 of the list, and e-commerce platform JD.com was on the list for the first time, ranking 31st.
It can be seen that China plays an important role in the development of the global economy, and Chinese companies are also climbing up the global value chain. Huawei, BYD, Tencent, Alibaba and other excellent companies represent China and have a place in the world.
Competition vitality is intensified, accelerating the overall advancement of domestic products
2020 is unusual for China. The international epidemic situation continues to spread, manufacturing companies are facing many tests such as stable production and order delivery, and the acceleration of the digital wave is both a rare opportunity and a very challenging one.
Chinese auto companies in the midst of reforms are constantly seeking breakthroughs and upgrades as foreign-funded auto companies increase their investment in electrification and stimulate competition in the domestic market.
New energy vehicles promote the transformation of vehicles from simple vehicles to mobile intelligent terminals, energy storage units and digital spaces, drive the transformation of energy, transportation, and information and communication infrastructure, promote the optimization of energy consumption structure, and increase the level of intelligence in transportation systems and urban operations. It has become the key strategic layout and future development direction of many domestic auto companies.
According to EV sales data from the US new energy vehicle sales statistics website, domestic companies BYD and BAIC New Energy ranked second and third respectively in the ranking of the world's top ten electric vehicle sales in 2019.
Looking back on the development history of my country's new energy vehicles from scratch over the past two decades, we can find that it has ushered in a period of rapid development from policy driving, and the subsidy retreat has forced car companies to shift to a more competitive market development model.
From 2001 to 2008, electric vehicles were included in the "863" plan and entered the budding period of the new energy vehicle industry. At that time, most of them were mainly demonstration and promotion projects. Since 2009, the industry has entered a rapid growth period. Energy vehicle sales have grown rapidly.
From 2017 to 2020, new energy vehicles entered the industry's "calm adjustment period", and sales of new energy vehicles still increased. The post-subsidy era prompted new energy vehicle companies to shift to a more market-oriented development model. At the same time, as car carbon emission standards become more stringent, major auto companies around the world are racing to accelerate electrification. In 2020, foreign-invested and multinational auto companies will increase their investment in the Chinese market and launch models.
At present, in China's new energy vehicle market is gradually forming a three-pronged situation of independent brands, new forces to build cars, and foreign-owned car companies, and independent brands represented by BYD occupy an absolute advantage.
As early as last year, Auto House's "Chinese Brand Quality Ranking" from January to June 2019 showed that BYD Qin ranked first with excellent performance, while Lexus ES, known for its quality, can only rank second, followed by FAW Toyota RAV4. Rong Fang, Mazda CX-4, Cadillac XT4 and other joint venture brands.
Therefore, some people in the industry lamented that the Chinese car is gradually achieving a comprehensive advancement from the value to the technology, and it has made remarkable progress. Even the self-owned cars have done better in the new energy field than the joint venture brands.
A new generation of domestic products goes out of the circle
It is worth noting that recently, some netizens uploaded the "eye-catching" scene of BYD's booth. The foreigner brother was wearing a straight suit and wiping his car with a beautiful posture in front of the Han EV with elegant music, accompanied by elegant music, just like Is dancing. The move caused a lot of attention and hot discussion. The topic of "Dancing for Chinese Goods" on Weibo quickly became popular. Chinese brands in various industries participated in the topic and came up with the latest technology and products to testify for the rise of China.
The Han EV is a pure electric car for BYD that was launched in July this year. It is a pure electric car for the large and medium-sized luxury market. It not only adopts the new Dragon Face design language, which makes Han have both dynamic and elegant line beauty, and ultra-low wind resistance dynamic design. The mounted blade battery doubles the safety of the vehicle and the cruising range can be up to 605 kilometers. At the same time, the Han EV is equipped with the industry-leading DiPilot intelligent driving assistance system to form a new way of interaction between people and vehicles.
As the leader of the new energy vehicle brand, BYD has become a representative of domestic products of its own brand by virtue of its manufacturing strength and blessing of brand upgrade. Han EV has set a new height for new energy vehicles and launched an impact on international high-end cars, demonstrating the strength and confidence of China's auto industry.
With the change of time and the rise of domestic products, people can't help but sigh: Made in China is no longer what it was in the past, and behind this is the improvement of the overall strength of Made in China. It is believed that in the future there will be more and more "sharp goods" made in China like Han, which will hit the peak of global brands, and more and more people will "dance for domestic products"!
