To create a high-quality life for the people and write a magnificent picture of development. In the new era and new journey, the textile industry will strive to consolidate the foundation of a strong country and make new contributions to meet the needs of the people for a better life.

Since the founding of new China, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, China's textile industry has grown from small to large, from weak to strong, gathering surging strength and writing a magnificent picture. In particular, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the textile industry has thoroughly implemented the new development concept and achieved a historic breakthrough through down-to-earth, pioneering and innovative.

Sun Ruizhe, President of the China Textile Industry Federation, said that the "14th five year plan" period is a period of strategic opportunity for China to promote the comprehensive construction of a socialist modern country under the great changes that have not taken place in the world for a century. It is also a period for the industry to achieve higher quality, more efficiency, more fairness around "science and technology, fashion and green" on the basis of basically realizing the goal of a powerful textile country An important window period for more sustainable and safer development.

Constantly meet the needs of the people

After the founding of new China, China's textile industry ushered in a new period of development.

From the establishment of "five new textile bases" in Shijiazhuang, Handan, Zhengzhou, Xi'an and Beijing in the 1950s, Jingwei Textile Machinery Factory and Zhengzhou Textile Machinery Factory, to Liaoyang Petrochemical Co., Ltd. in the 1970s, China has basically formed a complete and relatively independent textile industry system. These major projects under the national system have laid the foundation for China's modern textile industry system. In the 1990s, private textile and garment enterprises rose rapidly, a large number of excellent enterprises such as Youngor and Shanshan emerged, and industrial clusters and professional markets began to develop rapidly.

The textile industry has always adhered to the value orientation of people first and played an important role in creating high-quality life. In 1983, marked by the cancellation of cloth tickets, China's textile industry took the lead in bidding farewell to the "shortage economy" and became the earliest and best solution to the livelihood problems. In 2000, China's total fiber processing reached 13.6 million tons, accounting for 25% of the world; The per capita fiber consumption increased from 2.9 kg in 1978 to 8.2 kg, basically meeting the domestic consumption demand. When the per capita GDP is 10000 US dollars, China's fiber consumption has already reached the level of medium developed countries before the level of economic development. In the fight against the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the textile industry relies on the perfect industrial support, efficient organization and mobilization system and strong industrial transformation ability, which effectively ensures the people's life, health and safety.

By increasing varieties, improving quality and creating brands, the textile industry has effectively met the growing needs of the people for personalized and multi-level products and services. A collaborative research and release mechanism covering all aspects of the industry chain has been formed. The original ability of fashion design has been significantly improved. Product development has been accelerated in the direction of functionality, green and intelligence. The application fields have also been extended to medical and health care, aerospace, national defense and military industry. The recognition, reputation and influence of Chinese brands continue to increase. About 85% of the clothing and home textile brands of major domestic commercial entities are independent brands, and the consumption scale of original fashion brands accounts for more than 15% of brand consumption.

As an important employment carrier, textile industry has achieved remarkable results in stabilizing employment. At one time, the employment population of the whole industry exceeded 20 million. The development of the industry directly benefits "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" and provides suitable and promising jobs for rural migrant workers.

In addition, the direction of textile industry gradient transfer is highly unified with the demand of regional coordinated development, which has made a constructive contribution to solving the regional and urban-rural regional gap. At present, 34 of the 36 textile industry transfer pilot parks are located in the central and western regions. The industrial transfer of the industry has effectively helped the targeted poverty alleviation. At this year's National Conference on poverty alleviation, 16 individuals and 4 collectives in the textile industry won awards.

The textile industry closely follows the needs of social development, constantly consolidates manufacturing advantages, and improves the basic capacity and industrial chain modernization level. The quality, power and efficiency of the industry development have achieved fundamental changes, and its position in serving the overall national strategy is becoming more and more prominent.

Adhere to innovation driven strategy

In the first half of this year, China's textile industry developed steadily and achieved a good start. From January to April this year, the operating revenue of textile enterprises above Designated Size nationwide reached 1468.75 billion yuan, up 22.6% year on year; The total profit was 66.76 billion yuan, up 71.8% year on year. The industry value creation has returned to the pre epidemic level and the development foundation has been further consolidated.

The strong tenacity and vitality of the textile industry benefits from the long-term innovation driven. Hua Shan, director of the industry department of the China Textile Industry Federation and executive vice president of the Industrial Economics Research Institute, said that over the years, the textile industry has placed innovation at the core of the overall development, and the industrial scientific and technological strength is moving from the accumulation of quantity to the leap of quality, from the breakthrough of point to the improvement of system capability.

The strength of basic research has been significantly improved, and new historic achievements have been made in scientific and technological innovation. The textile industry has broken through a number of "neck sticking" technical problems in fiber materials, green manufacturing, textile machinery and other fields. The domestic market share of domestic textile equipment is more than 75%“ During the 13th Five Year Plan period, 11 achievements of the industry won the national science and technology awards, and the textile standard system was further optimized.

The integration of industrialization and industrialization has developed in depth, and the formation of new scenes, new formats and new models has been accelerated. The textile industry seizes the opportunity of digital technology reform and vigorously promotes the transformation of digital, networked and intelligent industries. The proportion of enterprises carrying out service-oriented manufacturing and personalized customization ranks first in the manufacturing industry. From design to production, digital solutions have been formed rapidly. Mobile Internet technology and AI technology have been constantly innovating circulation formats, shopping scenes and service experience. Textile industry has become the most active industry in social e-commerce and live e-commerce.

The innovation ecology is becoming more and more perfect, and the overall efficiency of the innovation system has been greatly improved. Textile enterprises have been playing a more and more important role in the industry, and the innovation ecology of deep integration of industry, University, research and application has taken shape. In 2019, the R & D investment intensity of textile enterprises above Designated Size exceeded 1%, which was 0.4% higher than that in 2015. Among them, the R & D investment intensity of chemical fiber industry reached 1.4%, 0.3% higher than that in 2015.

In 2020, China will basically achieve the main target of textile power. According to the comparative analysis of Chinese Academy of Engineering in 2019 and 2020, China's five major industries are in the world's advanced level, and textile industry is one of them.

The strong symbol of textile industry is to realize the transformation from made in China to created in China, to realize the transformation from China's speed to China's quality, and from Chinese products to Chinese brands.

Expand the pattern of opening up

As the first batch of foreign aid industrial departments, the textile industry has made outstanding contributions to improving international relations and opening up the diplomatic situation.

In the early stage of reform and opening up, the textile industry seized the historical opportunity of global industrial transfer, vigorously developed the export-oriented economy of "three processing and one compensation", and became the forerunner of opening up and system reform. In 1978, China's textile and clothing exports amounted to 2.33 billion US dollars, ranking 11th in the world. Foreign exchange earning from industrial exports has provided important support for national economic construction. Up to 1981, the total number of foreign aid projects for textile mills was 82, distributed in 35 countries.

During the 13th Five Year Plan period, the textile industry comprehensively expanded the pattern of opening to the outside world, played an important role in building an open economic system, and fully demonstrated its responsibilities and responsibilities.

The scale of international trade of textile industry has been the first in the world for a long time. In 2019, China's textile and clothing exports accounted for 33.9% of the world's total; The global share of textile exports increased from 36.6% in 2016 to 39.2% in 2019. The export market structure has been continuously optimized and diversified. New trade formats are emerging, cross-border e-commerce has become a new growth point, and a number of excellent enterprises have emerged. The specialization and branding of international exhibitions are constantly improving, which has become the first-class business platform in the world.

The textile industry has moved forward from product going out, production capacity going out to brand going out and capital going out. The industry's ability to allocate resources in the world has been continuously improved. Textile and garment production, trade and product design enterprises have been set up in more than 100 countries and regions, effectively reducing economic and trade risks“ During the 13th Five Year Plan period, China's textile enterprises invested more than 1.8 billion US dollars in the five Mekong countries, accounting for 26.6% of the total global investment in the same period.

At the same time, the textile industry has also played an important role in promoting sustainable development. The green manufacturing system of textile industry has been initially established, the energy consumption structure has been continuously optimized, the level of resource utilization has been steadily improved, the ecological safety of products has been generally enhanced, and the supply capacity of recycled chemical fiber has been significantly improved. The dimension and connotation of social responsibility continue to expand. The social responsibility management system (CSC9000T) of China's textile and garment enterprises has been deeply promoted in the whole industry, and has begun to cover the factories invested by domestic enterprises overseas.

But look at the path, green horizontal green micro. In the new era and new journey, the textile industry will continue to forge long and short boards, consolidate the foundation of a strong country, maintain its dominant position, and make new contributions to meet the needs of the people for a better life.
