Xu Lijin, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
China National Radio Hefei March 6th News "As China enters the next stage of the struggle for the next century, it is particularly urgent for China to achieve a strong manufacturing country and for China's manufacturing industry to achieve transformation and upgrading and high-quality development. Xu Lijin said that after more than 40 years of reform and opening up, China has developed into a world manufacturing center with the most complete manufacturing categories, and the manufacturing industry has played a pivotal role in China's economic development. In the four-tier echelon structure of the global manufacturing industry, China is still in the third echelon, and China's manufacturing industry is still at the low end of the smile curve. The situation of being big but not strong, and being comprehensive but not excellent has not been fundamentally changed. China must be self-reliant and self-reliant in core technologies, and the core industrial chain and supply chain must be self-controlled.
He suggested increasing efforts to tackle core technologies such as artificial intelligence, industrial Internet, and intelligent robots, strengthening and increasing key national R&D projects in this direction, and concentrating national resources to break through technical difficulties and clear technical bottlenecks through "unveiling the list and appointing the leader". It is recommended to increase the attraction of top international talents and Chinese scientists to China to serve scientific and technological innovation, and to increase the training of scarce talents in emerging industry technologies and cutting-edge basic research technologies.
In terms of model innovation, Xu Lijin believes that in the new development stage, the manufacturing industry should pay more attention to the reintegration and effective use of resource elements in the process of deep integration of the innovation chain and the industrial chain. The business model, production model, and cooperation model of some industries need to be rebuilt. He suggested that For core key technologies related to national strategy and national security, we must do a good job in top-level design, play the guiding role of the government, and reasonably arrange the division of labor and coordination among regions and provinces. We must not let all regions and provinces rush in and waste resources, nor should we let no region or province be interested because of "hard bones".
For central enterprises and leading enterprises in various industries, it is recommended to promote the first use of new technologies, new industries, and new products, so that central enterprises and leading enterprises can play a demonstration and leading role, and then popularize them to the entire industry. For small and medium-sized enterprises in industrial agglomeration areas, due to insufficient innovation resources, Xu Lijin suggested building a public platform to drive the common development of small and medium-sized enterprises. For example, in the new round of digital and intelligent integrated development, the majority of medium and small enterprises Small businesses "don't want to, don't know how to, and can't afford to invest", and they "can't afford to buy or use" core technologies and equipment. By centrally building an "intelligent shared manufacturing" platform, small and medium-sized enterprises in industrial clusters only need to focus on R&D and sales, without having to build their own factories. Intelligent shared factories will centrally provide manufacturing services, accelerating the transformation and upgrading of many small and medium-sized enterprises in clusters to intelligent manufacturing and green manufacturing.
"After technological innovation and model innovation, new production methods and business models have emerged. It is recommended that the system should also keep up with the times. For example, spraying robots and grinding and polishing robots that replace manual labor in harsh environments, as long as the economy, technology, and reliability meet the requirements, it is recommended to introduce a system to recommend robots to replace such jobs." Xu Lijin said.
