The theme of this forum is dedicated to experts who have invited many years of research and practical experience in the industry.

For example, Secretary Wang Yang highly appraised CEO Wang Guoquan, the Dongguan Emma Numerical Control Technology Co., Ltd., as a booster of the pformation and upgrading of traditional industries, Tsinghua University, Professor Zheng Li, Professor of Tsinghua University, China's lean production and industrial engineering construction, as well as Peking University professor Wang Jici, who has been studying industrial clusters for more than 20 years and focused on the development of industrial clusters in Hong Kong.

The audience of this forum has a very high gold content: about two hundred thousand of the workers in the world, Cai Qineng, executive director of the world shoe king Baocheng International Group, has come to the forum, and the representatives of the world's largest women's footwear manufacturer, Xing ang group, and Huajian group, Oasis shoe industry, and Xin shoes industry, have also come to participate.

The third world footwear industry development forum has received high recognition and participation from the global footwear giants with its high-end, quality, in-depth positioning and strong appeal.

China's shoemaking labor costs 1.3-1.5 USD / HR

At this forum, the China Leather Association has published the development trend of the world footwear industry and the Chinese footwear industry in the next five years (Interpretation of the 12th Five-Year guidance of China Leather Industry).

China produces 100 million pairs in 130 years, the labor cost is 1.3-1.5 dollars / hour, the annual output of India is 2 billion pairs, and the labor cost is 0.65 dollars / hour. Brazil produced nearly 900 million pairs of shoes last year, and the labor cost was 4.35 dollars / hour; Vietnam last year produced nearly 800 million pairs of shoes, and the labor cost was 0.48 dollars / hour.

Judging from the data, it is also difficult for these countries to take the place of China's shoe giants in ten years. However, the competitive pressure on China's development in the future is still great. We must speed up the restructuring, pformation and upgrading.

Completely abandon the development mode of competition based on speed, scale and price, and change to the development mode that depends on quality, standard, technology, service, innovation ability and brand influence.

This can also prove that the shoe industry is still the best opportunity for development in the next ten years.

China's development of leather industry has many advantages, such as abundant raw material resources, perfect industrial chain, huge processing capacity, high-quality and low-cost labor force, production of various quality requirements at lower cost, and potential market with 1 billion 300 million population.

Therefore, in the long run, China has the capability to cross the world leather power to the world leather power.

The era of equipment automation in China's manufacturing industry has come quietly.

The upgrading of equipment is a hot topic of concern for the representatives of the forum. They will also discuss and exchange the confusion encountered in the process of pformation and upgrading.

During the forum, the boss of a shoemaking enterprise in Dongguan was troubled by the dilemma of the "blade profit" caused by the rising domestic CPI and the rising labor costs.

Dr. Xu Chunshan, general manager of Shanghai Ying Ji Si automation equipment Technology Co., Ltd. believes that this is a common problem faced by many Chinese footwear enterprises.

He thinks that the era of equipment automation in Chinese manufacturing industry is just coming, but the trend of equipment replacing labor force and entering automation pition is inevitable, and the pformation enterprises will also face pains.

Dr. Xu Chunshan said that the shoe industry is a typical representative of light industry, with labor intensive, and human cost occupies a very high proportion in the whole cost.

And when it comes to automated equipment, its output is usually several times higher than that of manual labor, but how to balance it is very important.

Nowadays, the cost is rising day by day, so that enterprise bosses are forced to upgrade and upgrade strategically as they invest in automation equipment.

From the popularization of the concept of equal labor force to the widespread application of technological R & D results, the equipment automation of shoe enterprises will start with large-scale enterprises. Dr. Xu Chunshan made a prediction on the process of manufacturing equipment automation in China's shoes industry. He thought that after 20 years, China's footwear industry is expected to enter the era of intelligence.
