Economic Daily: New industrialization continues to deepen.
Modern industry is the most important foundation and core of modern industrial system. The "15th Five-Year Plan" proposes to build a modern industrial system and consolidate and strengthen the foundation of the real economy. At present, all parts of the country are accelerating technological innovation, promoting the development of industrial agglomeration and the transformation of digital intelligence, continuously improving the innovation system and industrial ecology, strengthening the coordination of upstream and downstream, and promoting the deepening of new industrialization.
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that since the "14th Five-Year Plan", the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has further promoted new industrialization, accelerated the construction of a manufacturing power, and coordinated the promotion of the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, the cultivation and growth of emerging industries, and the forward-looking layout of future industries. Quality and efficiency, innovation, competitiveness, and anti-risk capabilities have been significantly enhanced, and remarkable results have been achieved in building a modern industrial systems with advanced manufacturing as the backbone.
Innovation results continue to emerge
In Shanghai, integrated circuits are moving towards a breakthrough in the entire industrial chain, biomedicine has made innovative breakthroughs, and six major areas such as future manufacturing and future materials have achieved forward-looking layout; in Chongqing, the construction of "AI manufacturing" has been accelerated, intelligent networked vehicles have achieved a leap, and low-altitude economy Innovative development; in Guangdong, the upstream and downstream linkages of basic telecommunications companies, Internet companies, communication terminals and equipment companies are accelerating, the formation of a benign ecology ...... All localities strive to build a modern industrial system with advanced manufacturing as the backbone, and take solid steps towards new industrialization.
At present, my country's industrial scientific and technological innovation capabilities have been steadily improved, and innovative achievements in key areas have continued to emerge, and a number of landmark achievements have been achieved. From stage equipment, photographic lenses to high-speed rail trains and advanced manufacturing equipment, a number of key products continue to refresh the level of localization, forming a vivid footnote for the leap of China's manufacturing industry to high-end and intelligent.
Walking into the modern factory building of Shanhe Xinghang Industrial Co., Ltd., I saw all kinds of manned light aircraft and drones neatly arranged, and the roar of aircraft trials came from the nearby airport from time to time.
Here was born my country's first carbon fiber composite light sports aircraft that has obtained civil aviation airworthiness certification and is fully autonomous in design and manufacture-"Arola". This aircraft has the ability to take off and land on high plateaus and self-driving capabilities, and has become my country's general aviation field. Star aircraft.
"In the first half of 2025, the sales order of' Arora' light sports aircraft exceeded 100, and in September it set a new monthly delivery record. The cumulative sales volume is about to exceed 400, and the cumulative flight time exceeds 200000 hours." Shanhe Xinghang Industrial Co., Ltd. director, operation director Huang Xin told reporters.
The new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation have accelerated the evolution, and put forward higher requirements for scientific and technological innovation capabilities and industrial transformation and upgrading. More and more companies continue to tackle key materials, core components, intelligent equipment, industrial software and other fields, and promote more original and leading results from the laboratory to the production line.
According to the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, with the substantial increase in the number of enterprise entities, the accelerated growth of leading enterprises, and the accelerated emergence of specialized and special new enterprises, the comprehensive competitiveness of Chinese enterprises has been significantly enhanced. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the number of specialized and special new small and medium-sized enterprises increased from less than 40000 to more than 140000, and the number of "little giant" enterprises broke through from more than 5000 to 17600.
Industrial cluster cohesion into momentum
Industrial cluster is the key to promote the high-quality development of manufacturing enterprises and the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industry. All localities are promoting the development of industrial clusters, creating characteristic parks and industrial chain ecology around subdivision tracks, and constantly improving the efficiency of resource allocation and innovation synergy.
Experts said that the development of characteristic industrial clusters will help improve the development level of specialization, specialization and clustering of small and medium-sized enterprises, enhance the resilience of the industrial chain supply chain and the supporting capacity of key links, and promote the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.
Located in Xiangtan, Hunan Province, Hunan Province Medical Device Industrial Park is becoming a vivid sample to promote the development of medical device industry cluster. In just four years, the medical device industry here started from scratch and achieved explosive growth.
Entering the park, you can see all kinds of medical device manufacturers on the guide map, as well as supporting service institutions such as sterilization centers, industrial colleges, and centralized management platforms. Based on the agglomeration advantages of local endoscopes, ultrasonic scalpels, staplers and other subdivided industrial enterprises, the park has attracted upstream and downstream enterprises such as medical molds, injection molding, blister, silica gel, and sterilization to build production lines here.
"The park has reduced the project approval process by 40% and accelerated the time by 72% through department linkage, information sharing, acceptance of shortage tolerance and" minimalist + intelligent "approval, striving to establish an accurate, professional and characteristic industrial service system." Zhu Da, party branch secretary of Hunan Medical Device Industrial Park, said.
Industrial parks play a key role in promoting new industrialization and developing new quality productivity. However, industry insiders said that many parks still have problems such as vague leading industries, homogeneous competition, insufficient land intensive use, lagging digital transformation and lack of green and low-carbon facilities, which are far from the requirements of high-quality, high-efficiency and sustainable new industrialization in the new era.
Zhang Linshan, a researcher at the Macroeconomic Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission, believes that to solve the problem of "many but not refined" industrial parks, it is necessary to focus on the core of characteristic and intensive development, based on regional resource endowments and industrial foundations, and avoid homogeneous competition. Promote the agglomeration of upstream and downstream of the industrial chain by means of investment promotion and industry-university-research collaboration, and strengthen collaborative innovation by relying on the "chain length system. At the same time, we will build a high-level innovation carrier, strengthen the construction of talent introduction and digital intelligence infrastructure, and promote the transformation of the park from scale expansion to quality efficiency with the support of green transformation and standardized management, so as to build a solid carrier support for the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.
The transformation of digital intelligence is accelerating.
At present, traditional industries such as steel and machinery are accelerating the transformation of digital intelligence, deepening the application of artificial intelligence, and releasing new kinetic energy in traditional industries.
Taking the chemical industry as an example, in order to solve the problems of equipment maintenance and patrol inspection in the traditional chemical industry, Shandong Haihua Group Co., Ltd. has established a strategic path of leveraging the intelligent transformation of the industry with AI small incision scenes, and has joined hands with Langchao digital enterprises to build a salt chemical intelligent control model based on Langchao Haiyue model, focusing on solving the core problems restricting chemical production.
Relying on the three major intelligent bodies of equipment predictive maintenance, process optimization and intelligent inspection, Shandong Haihua has realized real-time assessment of key equipment status and early risk identification, preventing hidden dangers from upgrading from the source. The fault identification accuracy rate has exceeded 95%, the inspection efficiency has increased by 50%, and the completion rate of risk analysis and hidden danger investigation has increased by 20%, effectively promoting the upgrading of chemical safety from "manual duty" to "human-machine cooperation.
Through the introduction of intelligent equipment, industrial Internet and green technology, traditional industries to achieve production process optimization, cost structure remodeling and efficiency improvement, accelerate to high-end, green, intelligent direction, for industrial upgrading to expand new growth space.
However, it should also be noted that enterprises will still encounter the problem of insufficient motivation when they land in transformation.
"The enterprise's understanding of the importance and necessity of the transformation of logarithm is the beginning of the transformation." Jian Shun, chairman of Zhuzhou Qianjin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., believes that in the digital transformation of traditional enterprises, we must first solve the cognitive problem, accept the transformation from the concept, and actively embrace the new trend.
As a veteran comprehensive pharmaceutical company founded in 1966, how did Qianjin Pharmaceutical adapt to the development trend of the digital age and realize the transformation of digital intelligence?
"We take the initiative to learn from peer enterprises undergoing digital transformation and organize centralized training every month." Jian Shun told reporters that through the transformation of digital intelligence, Qianjin Pharmaceutical has achieved quality improvement, cost reduction and efficiency enhancement. It took only two years. The monthly production scheduling time was reduced from more than 3 days to 30 minutes. The output increased by 33%, and the industrial revenue and profitability continued to grow.
Zhang Linshan believes that to solve the problem of intelligent transformation of traditional enterprises, it is necessary to accurately solve the core pain points. Policy incentives should be used to reduce the cost of transformation, build a supply and demand docking platform, show successful cases of transformation, so that enterprises can see the actual benefits of efficiency improvement and cost reduction, while establishing a transformation effectiveness evaluation mechanism to strengthen positive guidance. In addition, it can also provide enterprises with full-process guidance through government purchase of services and third-party empowerment, so as to make the transformation process more controllable and risk more controllable, and stimulate the endogenous power of enterprise transformation.
It is understood that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has implemented the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, "point, line and surface" to jointly promote the digital transformation, promote the digital transformation of industrial enterprises above the designated size, build the first batch of 62 manufacturing digital transformation promotion centers, and promote the transformation of the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry from "benchmarking" to "scale promotion"; Implement intelligent manufacturing projects and build more than 230 excellent intelligent factories. Promote "Artificial Intelligence Manufacturing, the new generation of intelligent terminals and intelligent bodies accelerate the application and promotion, promote the large-scale application of industrial Internet, industrial Internet applications have been integrated into 49 national economic categories, and 41 industrial categories have been fully covered.
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said that in the next step, we will continue to accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system with advanced manufacturing as the backbone, further promote industrial technological transformation and equipment renewal, adhere to high-level opening up, and promote industrial upgrading to a new layout and steady development.
