The manufacturing industry should accelerate its move to the high end

General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed during the deliberations of the Jiangsu delegation to the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress on March 5, “I often say that two must be guaranteed, one is that China must secure the grain rice bowl, and the other manufacturing industry must be firmly built.” A large country with a population of more than 1.4 billion people must solve these two problems on its own.” The general secretary’s important speech once again clarified the strategic position of manufacturing as the lifeblood of the national economy, and pointed out the direction for the high-quality development of China’s manufacturing industry.

Manufacturing is the foundation of a country and the foundation of a strong country. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, focusing on the overall strategic situation of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the great changes in the world that have not been seen in a century, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has attached great importance to the development of the manufacturing industry, repeatedly emphasized the importance of accelerating the construction of a manufacturing power, and provided a fundamental basis for building a solid foundation for China’s manufacturing industry. From the central to the local, a series of policies have been introduced one after another, sending “timely rain” to the development of the manufacturing industry, which has given strong support to China’s manufacturing advantages.

The most complete industrial categories in the world, the most complete industrial system, and the world-leading industrial chain supporting capabilities have laid a solid foundation for China’s manufacturing industry to continuously improve its innovation, competitiveness and anti-risk ability. Not only that, relying on China’s ultra-large-scale market advantages and the world’s largest middle-income group, in the wave of deep integration of digital economy and real economy, China’s manufacturing industry new competitive advantages are forming and increasingly prominent.
