Shandong: The dual wings of "real number fusion" help accelerate the construction of a strong province
On the morning of October 21st, the Provincial Party Committee's Theoretical Learning Center held a special coaching report meeting. Jin Zhuanglong, Secretary of the Party Group and Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, gave a special lecture on the theme of "deepening the study and understanding of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important discourse and accelerating the promotion of new industrialization". Lin Wu, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, made deployment requirements for promoting new industrialization in the province in his concluding speech.
As an important industrial base in China and a strategic pivot for economic development in the northern region, Shandong firmly shoulders the mission of "leading the way and shouldering the heavy burden". It regards promoting the deep integration of the real economy and the digital economy as a key path to promote new industrialization, making good use of the opportunity of digital transformation of the real economy, shaping the vigorous rise of the digital economy, and accelerating the formation of a new driving force for high-quality economic development in Shandong.
The real economy is riding on numbers, promoting industrial provinces to move towards industrial strength.Shandong adheres to the real economy as the foundation and the manufacturing industry as the leader, solidly promotes the number one project of industrial economy, deeply implements the "ten projects" of digital industrialization and the "eight actions" of industrial digitalization, and focuses on leveraging the "maximum increment" of new industrialization development with "digital variables". It has successfully created a national industrial Internet development demonstration zone, built the first functional national digital transformation promotion center for small and medium-sized enterprises, promoted the coverage of digital transformation of industrial enterprises above designated size to 87.3%, cultivated 46 national industrial Internet platforms and 35 national intelligent factories, both ranking first in the country. In 2023, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size in the province increased by 7.1%, and from January to September this year, it increased by 8.2%, ranking among the top industrial provinces.
The digital economy empowers "reality" and promotes the transition from a manufacturing province to an intelligent manufacturing province.The deep integration of intelligent technologies represented by artificial intelligence big models and big data with the manufacturing industry is driving the acceleration of industrial digitization towards intelligence. The fusion of real numbers is accelerating the upgrading of industrial intelligence. From the supply side, Shandong is deeply implementing the "Double Hundred Project" to cultivate the model industry. With the goal of cultivating "100+" characteristic large model enterprises and creating "100+" excellent industry models/scenario models, we aim to promote the establishment of talent bases and industrial clusters for the large model industry. 83 enterprises in the province have developed 109 large model products. From the demand side, Shandong is promoting the implementation of the "Artificial Intelligence+Manufacturing" action, holding the first national "Generative Artificial Intelligence+Manufacturing" supply and demand docking activity (chemical industry session), building an industrial brain digital transformation service platform with "industrial big data+industry big model" as the core, and accelerating the formation of data-driven intelligent manufacturing and service-oriented manufacturing new models.
Fully unleash the integration efficiency and strive to build the strongest province for "real number integration".The real economy provides a vast market and application space for the digital economy, while the digital economy brings technological support and reshapes production organization forms to the real economy. In 2023, the total amount of digital economy in Shandong will reach 4.33 trillion yuan, accounting for over 47% of GDP, ranking third in the country in terms of total amount and carrying half of the province's economy. This year, 13 enterprises in Shandong have been selected as one of the top 100 enterprises in China for real number integration, ranking first in the country in terms of quantity. The real number integration vitality index is 90.4, ranking second in the country. Accumulated the construction of 64 key industry "industrial brains", cultivated 4220 data-driven "Morning Star factories", and explored the formation of a new model of real number integration of "industrial brains+Morning Star factories". Without data, there is no intelligence ". Shandong has launched a special action to empower data, taking the pilot province of the National Data Management Capability Maturity Evaluation Model (DCMM) as an opportunity to deeply explore the resources of real number integration. A total of 739 enterprises have passed the data management capability maturity evaluation, ranking first in the country for consecutive years. The "Evaluation Report on the Development Level of China's Big Data Regions (2023)" shows that Shandong's data resource index ranks first in the country. The integration of the texture and bloodline of the digital economy with the backbone of the real economy is accelerating, promoting Shandong's advantages in the real economy with large scale, comprehensive industrial categories, and multiple industrial varieties, and forming a digital economy advantage with abundant data resources, sufficient computing power resources, and deep integration of real numbers. Looking towards the future, the "dual wings" of the real economy and the digital economy will surely flourish on the land of Qilu, helping to accelerate the construction of a socialist modernized strong province in the new era.
