Firstly, let's take a look at the highlights of the acceleration of China's modern industrial system development in the first half of 2023.
China is expected to become the world's largest exporter of automobiles this year
According to recent data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in the first half of this year, China's automobile enterprises exported 2.14 million vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 75.7%, and are expected to become the world's largest exporter this year. In addition, China's production of new energy vehicles has ranked first in the world for 8 consecutive years. As of July 3 this year, China's production of new energy vehicles has exceeded 20 million units.
At present, China has become the world's largest automobile production and sales country for 14 consecutive years, and the scale of new energy vehicle production and sales has ranked first in the world for 8 consecutive years. According to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, the current car ownership per thousand people in China is 230, and the future car ownership per thousand people is expected to reach 400. At the same time, automobile exports continue to maintain rapid growth. In the first half of this year, automobile companies exported 2.14 million vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 75.7%, and are expected to become the world's largest exporter this year.
On July 3rd, China's 20th millionth new energy vehicle was taken offline in Guangzhou. This marks a new stage of high-quality development for China's new energy vehicles, based on industrialization and marketization, and consolidates China's position as the world's largest producer, seller, and exporter of new energy vehicles. The Chinese automotive industry, represented by new energy vehicles, is playing an important advantage in the new round of global technological revolution.
Fu Bingfeng, Executive Vice President of the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers: It took us 15 years to achieve the first 10 million vehicles, while it only took us 1 year and 5 months to achieve the second 10 million vehicles. I believe that policy guidance has played a huge role, and China has successively introduced more than 70 policies.
Actively promoting the transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry, taking the lead in clarifying the national strategy for developing new energy vehicles, cultivating the world's largest consumer market, and contributing China's strength to the electrification transformation of the global automotive industry. In the future, China will further consolidate and expand the development advantages of new energy vehicles, and vigorously promote the high-quality development of the new energy vehicle industry.
The second domestically produced large aircraft C919 has been launched for commercial operation acceleration
The domestic large aircraft project has gone through more than a decade, from being included in the national major scientific and technological special project, to the successful development of large aircraft, and then to the first commercial flight in the first half of this year. On the 16th, China Eastern Airlines officially took over the second domestically produced C919 large passenger aircraft in Shanghai. The arrival of a new C919 aircraft marks the acceleration of China Eastern Airlines' commercial operation of C919 large passenger planes.
On the morning of the 16th, the plane flew from Shanghai Pudong International Airport to Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, officially joining the fleet of China Eastern Airlines. The C919 large passenger aircraft received this time is the second of the first batch of 5 C919 aircraft purchased by China Eastern Airlines.
According to China Eastern Airlines' plan, the second C919 will partner with the first aircraft and be first deployed on the China Eastern Airlines' Shanghai Hongqiao Chengdu Tianfu air express line, gradually expanding more routes in the future. After the second C919 made its debut on the Shanghai Chengdu Express, passengers will have more options to experience domestic large planes on China Eastern Airlines flights.
As the world's first user of domestically produced C919 large passenger aircraft, China Eastern Airlines successfully completed the round-trip flight of the first commercial flight of C919, "Shanghai Hongqiao Beijing Capital", on May 28th. Afterwards, this C919 served passengers on the Shanghai Chengdu Express. As of July 12th, the first C919 has operated a total of 87 commercial flights, with an average passenger occupancy rate of nearly 80%. It has served a total of 11095 passengers and has been in commercial operation for over 250 hours.
What are the new characteristics of the new changes in the development of modern industrial systems?
In the 2023 China Economic Middle School Entrance Examination, we can see that outstanding achievements have been made in fields such as automobiles and airplanes, which represent the level of China's high-tech manufacturing industry. How do we view the new changes and characteristics in the development of modern industrial systems? Let's listen to the interpretation of Wu Sa, Deputy Director of the Institute of Economics at the Chinese Academy of Macroeconomics.
Wu Sa introduced that since the beginning of this year, the international political and economic situation has been complex and severe. China has continuously strengthened its leading role in innovation, made efforts to develop new industries and formats, and steadily promoted the rapid development of modern industrial system construction.
One is that high-tech manufacturing has become an important focus for cultivating new drivers of economic development. The high-tech manufacturing industry has the characteristics of large R&D investment, high product added value, and good international market prospects, and is an important battlefield for international economic and technological competition. Since the beginning of this year, China's high-tech manufacturing industry has shown remarkable performance, with a large number of high-end, intelligent, and green new pillar industries rapidly emerging.
Secondly, technological innovation brings about the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure. The emergence of the "new three types" represented by electric manned vehicles, lithium batteries, and solar cells is inseparable from China's continuous promotion of technological self-reliance and breakthroughs in core technologies. The key core technologies in these fields, such as the energy density of mass-produced power batteries and the average power consumption per 100 kilometers, have all reached the world's advanced level.
Thirdly, high-quality small and medium-sized enterprises continue to emerge. Private enterprises, mainly small and medium-sized enterprises, have risen to become the largest foreign trade operation entity in China, contributing more than half of the growth of foreign trade. More than 40% of specialized, refined, and innovative "little giant" enterprises are gathered in the fields of new materials, next-generation information technology, new energy vehicles, and intelligent connected vehicles. Over 60% are deeply rooted in the industrial foundation field, and over 90% are supporting suppliers for well-known domestic and foreign large enterprises, playing an important role in supporting steady economic growth and maintaining global industrial and supply chain stability.
Multiple measures to help business entities reduce costs and increase efficiency
Recently, the country and various regions have also launched multiple measures to increase support for business entities in relieving difficulties, reduce operating costs for enterprises, and help real economy enterprises take action with ease. The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Finance, and the People's Bank of China have identified 22 key tasks for cost reduction this year, covering 8 aspects including tax and fee costs, financing costs, labor costs, and logistics costs. The tax department has continued, optimized, and innovatively implemented multiple tax and fee preferential policies. Since the beginning of this year, a series of tax and fee preferential policies have effectively reduced the burden on business entities.
In the first half of the year, China's modernization of the industrial system achieved significant results in accelerating its development. So, how can we promote the sustained development and acceleration of the modernization of the industrial system in the future? In which areas should we focus our efforts? Let's continue listening to the interpretation of Wu Sa, Deputy Director of the Institute of Economics at the Chinese Academy of Macroeconomics.
Wu Sa introduced that currently, the endogenous driving force of China's industrial economic growth is gradually increasing, and the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry is also constantly improving. The next step is to promote the construction of a modern industrial system towards practicality, and we also need to continue to do the following work well.
One is to deeply implement the innovation driven development strategy. We should fully leverage the leading and driving role of technological innovation, strive to make new breakthroughs in original innovation, achieve leapfrog development in important scientific and technological fields, promote independent and controllable key core technologies, strengthen the integration of innovation and industrial chains, and establish industrial development on the basis of technological support.
The second is to increase financial support for the real economy. We need to continue optimizing various financial policies to ensure that a long-term, increasing quantity, wide coverage, and cost-effective source of financial vitality continuously irrigates the manufacturing industry, especially supporting the high-quality development of high-tech and advanced manufacturing industries.
The third is to promote the specialized, refined, and innovative development of small and medium-sized enterprises. To further improve and perfect the working mechanism, policy and regulatory system, and high-quality and efficient service system, and strive to cultivate more innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, specialized and new small and medium-sized enterprises, and specialized and new "little giant" enterprises.
The fourth is to promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Implementing technological transformation and upgrading in this part of the industry can not only stimulate a large amount of investment demand, but also stimulate new growth points.
The fifth is to further expand opening up. Without open cooperation, there will be no modern industrial system. We should start from both supply and demand sides, continuously improve the quality of manufacturing product supply, promote the development of group scale, and cultivate Chinese brands with international competitiveness.
