On April 19, the Information Office of the State Council held a press conference to release the development of industry and information technology in the first quarter of 2022. Luo Junjie, spokesman of the Ministry of industry and information technology and director of the operation monitoring Coordination Bureau, and Zhao Zhiguo, the spokesman and director of the information and communication administration bureau, attended the conference to introduce relevant information and answer questions from reporters. At the meeting, topics of concern to textile industry people, such as invigorating the industrial economy, increasing the efforts to help enterprises to relieve financial difficulties, enhancing the resilience of industrial chain supply chain, and digital green transformation, were highlighted and worthy of attention.

Development of industry and informatization in the first quarter

Luo Junjie, spokesman of the Ministry of industry and information technology and director of the operation monitoring and Coordination Bureau, said: since this year, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, the Ministry of industry and information technology has thoroughly implemented the decisions and arrangements of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, coordinated the epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, and strictly and practically carried out the epidemic prevention and control work, We will conscientiously implement the tasks of "six stabilities" and "six guarantees" and strive to overcome difficulties. We will work together with relevant departments to introduce a series of policies to help enterprises to relieve difficulties and promote the steady growth of the industrial economy. All departments in various regions have taken positive actions and made efforts ahead. In general, the industrial economy has started smoothly in the first quarter, and the development of industry and information technology has achieved positive results. We have taken five measures.

First, efforts should be made to invigorate the industrial economy. We have strengthened the cooperation between departments and the linkage between departments and provinces. We have coordinated the implementation of policies, guaranteed supply and stable chain, helped enterprises to relieve difficulties, and expected guidance, so as to promote the stable recovery of the industrial economy. From the perspective of economic indicators, we think there are four bright spots. Let's report to you. First, industrial production remained stable. In the first quarter, the added value of industries above designated size increased by 6.5% year-on-year, 2.6 percentage points higher than that in the fourth quarter of last year, showing a good trend of quarterly recovery. Second, the proportion of manufacturing industry further increased, which was 28.9% in the first quarter, increased by 1.3 percentage points year on year, reaching the highest value since 2016. Third, the driving role of industrial exports continued to strengthen. In the first quarter, the export delivery value of Industrial Enterprises above designated size increased by 14.4% year-on-year, which has maintained double-digit growth for a consecutive year. Fourth, investment in the manufacturing industry rebounded significantly, with a year-on-year growth of 15.6% in the first quarter, 2.1 percentage points faster than that of the whole year of 2021.

Second, we will continue to help enterprises. We adhere to the two pronged approach of helping the poor and training the best, and strive to play a good "combination" of preferential policies for enterprises, so as to promote the stable and healthy development of small and medium-sized enterprises. We will adhere to the policy of benefiting enterprises, serving enterprises, and invigorating enterprises through environment. We will coordinate the implementation of a series of policies to help small and medium-sized enterprises, promote the implementation of policies and measures such as tax reduction and fee reduction, financial credit, and job stabilization and job expansion, and improve the long-term working mechanism for clearing up the accounts owed to small and medium-sized enterprises. We will accelerate the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, study and formulate management measures for gradient cultivation of high-quality small and medium-sized enterprises, launch the implementation of the enterprise management improvement action plan (2022-2025), organize the cultivation and selection of single champion enterprises (products) in the manufacturing industry, and study and formulate the "hand in hand" action plan to promote the integration and innovation of large and medium-sized enterprises. In the first quarter, the added value of small and medium-sized industrial enterprises above designated size increased by 7.8% year-on-year, 1.3 percentage points higher than that of the overall industry.

Third, continuously enhance the resilience of the industrial chain supply chain. We have strengthened the supply guarantee of raw materials and key parts, accelerated the breakthrough of key core technologies, and focused on improving the stability of the industrial chain supply chain.

Fourth, accelerate the digital green transformation of manufacturing industry. We have implemented the carbon peak carbon neutral deployment, anchored the main direction of intelligent manufacturing, accelerated the digital transformation and upgrading, and made efforts to improve the level of green and low-carbon industrial development, and the new driving force of industrial development has been continuously enhanced. In terms of in-depth promotion of industrial digital transformation, the action plan for digital transformation of manufacturing industry was deeply implemented, the pilot demonstration action of intelligent manufacturing was organized, and the 2022 work plan of industrial Internet special working group was printed and issued, and the innovation and development project of industrial Internet in 2022 was launched. More than 2400 projects of "5g + industrial Internet" are under construction in China. In terms of steadily promoting the green and low-carbon transformation of industry, we will implement the implementation plan for comprehensive utilization of industrial resources and the high-quality development action plan for environmental protection equipment manufacturing industry (2022-2025), study and formulate national industrial energy efficiency and water efficiency improvement action plans, and support green technological transformation of enterprises in key high energy consuming industries, In the first two months, energy consumption per unit of industrial added value of Enterprises above designated size decreased by 7.4% year on year. We will accelerate the development of emerging industries, organize advanced manufacturing cluster competitions, announce a number of new national industrial demonstration bases, and guide and support the development of new display, energy electronics, intelligent connected vehicles and other emerging industries.

Fifth, actively promote the high-quality development of the information and communication industry.

At the same time, the "triple pressure" of demand contraction, supply shock and weakening expectation in China's economic development is still prominent in the industrial field, and the recovery is still unbalanced and unstable. In March, due to the adverse factors such as multi-point spread of the epidemic and geopolitical conflicts, some indicators slowed down significantly and downward pressure further increased. Of course, we should also see that China's industrial development has great resilience and potential. Since the fourth quarter of last year, the effects of various policies for stable industrial growth have been continuously showing. The government work report has deployed the implementation of combined tax reduction and fee reduction, enhancement of the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry, and expansion of domestic demand, The positive factors supporting the steady growth of industrial economy are accumulating continuously. The long-term good fundamentals of China's industrial economy have not changed, and the overall situation of recovery and development has not changed. China has great development potential, great market potential and great promotion potential of manufacturing industry.

In the next step, we will adhere to the guidance of Xi Jinping's thought of socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era, conscientiously implement the spirit of the central economic work conference and the deployment of the government work report, focus on the goal of building a manufacturing power and a network power, adhere to the principle of stability and progress in stability, and strive to promote the smooth operation, quality improvement and upgrading of the industrial economy, Efforts should be made to promote the steady growth of the industrial economy in the second quarter, keep the annual operation within a reasonable range, provide solid support for stabilizing the macro-economic market, and greet the victory of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China with outstanding achievements.

Answer questions from reporters

Xinhua News Agency reporter

The main indicators of industrial production in the first two months were better than expected, but the growth rate began to decline in March, showing a downward trend. What does the Ministry of industry and information technology think of the current industrial economic operation? What measures will be taken to stabilize industrial growth?

Luo Junjie: since this year, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and with the joint efforts of all regions and departments, various policies and measures for the steady growth of the industrial economy have continued to make efforts. In the first quarter, the industrial economy achieved a stable start and continued the good momentum of stable recovery. In the first quarter, the added value of industries above designated size increased by 6.5% year on year, 2.6 percentage points higher than that in the fourth quarter of last year. Of course, at present, affected by some environmental factors at home and abroad, some new problems and challenges did emerge in the industrial economy in March, such as the blockage of the industrial chain supply chain, some difficulties in the production and operation of small, medium and micro enterprises, and the high fluctuation of bulk raw material prices, which led to the slowdown of some indicators and increased downward pressure. However, at the same time, we should also see that the fundamentals of China's long-term economic growth have not changed, nor has the overall trend of resuming development changed. There is still a solid foundation for boosting the industrial economy. We believe that the difficulties and problems that arise are temporary difficulties and temporary problems. As long as we work hard and make concerted efforts to solve them, there will always be more solutions than difficulties.

In this respect, we still have several good basic conditions: first, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, we have confidence and confidence to calmly deal with various risks and challenges, and coordinate the prevention and control of the epidemic situation and economic and social development. Adhering to the general tone of seeking progress while maintaining stability and deepening the supply side structural reform should be said to be a strong political guarantee for boosting the industrial economy. Second, since the fourth quarter of last year, a lot of policies and measures have been successively introduced to stabilize industrial growth, which have been gradually effective. In particular, this year's "government work report" plans to implement a combination of tax cuts and fees, enhance the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry, and expand domestic demand. The release of dividends has accelerated, and positive factors supporting the steady growth of the industrial economy are accumulating. Third, China's industrial development has great resilience and potential, and the construction of a new development pattern is speeding up. The supply chain of the industrial chain remains stable, and the new driving force is also increasing.

In the next step, we will resolutely implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, adhere to the principle of stability and progress in stability, strengthen forward-looking prediction, do a good job in cross cycle adjustment, implement accurate hedging, and strive to promote the smooth operation, quality and upgrading of the industrial economy, and strive to realize the smooth continuation of the second quarter, so as to provide solid support for stabilizing the macroeconomic market. There are the following aspects of work:

First, pay close attention to the implementation of policies. It is necessary to strengthen overall planning and coordination, vigorously promote the implementation plan for invigorating the operation of the industrial economy and several policies for promoting the steady growth of the industrial economy. We will organize and carry out comprehensive supervision on reducing the burden of enterprises and promoting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, take the steady growth of industry as the key content, report the main indicators of industrial economy of various regions on a monthly basis, and compact local responsibilities. At the same time, in view of the changing situation, we are also studying the continuous policies and measures for the steady growth of some industries.

Second, we should take various measures to break through the blocking points in the supply chain of the industrial chain. Establish the "white list" system of key industry chain supply chain enterprises, and ensure the stable and smooth supply chain of key industry chain by strengthening the coordination between ministry and province and cross regional coordination. We will increase the supply and price stability of important raw materials, and strengthen the supply of key products such as potash fertilizer and rare and precious metals. We will continue to carry out the action of tackling key problems in automobile chips, spare no effort to improve the supply capacity of chips, promote the strengthening of the chain of leading enterprises, and actively help enterprises solve the difficult problems of factor guarantee.

Third, do everything possible to help small and medium-sized enterprises tide over difficulties. We will focus on promoting the implementation of the policy of helping enterprises and benefiting enterprises, and carry out the service action of "benefiting enterprises together" for small and medium-sized enterprises. We will work with relevant departments to study policies and measures to further help small and medium-sized enterprises and create a favorable environment for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. We will take joint action to solve the problem of "three payments in arrears" and "small and medium-sized enterprises". Give full play to the role of the industry association as a bridge and link, timely understand the real feelings of small and medium-sized enterprises, do a solid job in policy publicity and implementation, accurate assistance and other work, and strive to boost enterprise expectations.

Fourth, accelerate investment in major projects and tap new consumption potential. We will accelerate the implementation of major projects and projects in the "14th five year plan" of the manufacturing industry, support a number of major technical transformation projects for energy conservation and carbon reduction, guide basic telecom enterprises to moderately advance the deployment of 5g base station construction, promote the formation of physical workload as soon as possible, and give full play to the role of investment driven offset.

A large number of small and medium-sized enterprises are an important support for expanding employment, improving people's livelihood and stabilizing the economy. What measures will the Ministry of industry and information technology take to provide more support services for small and medium-sized enterprises and help them develop steadily and healthily?

Luo Junjie: small and medium-sized enterprises are an important part of the overall economic development, especially in terms of serving small and medium-sized enterprises, which is also a more important issue. It should be said that service is the basic work to promote the stable and healthy development of small and medium-sized enterprises. The Ministry of industry and information technology has always taken improving the service system and improving the efficiency of services as an important measure to promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. In recent years, the Ministry of industry and information technology has cultivated 703 national public service demonstration platforms for small and medium-sized enterprises, 392 national demonstration bases for entrepreneurship and innovation of small and micro enterprises, and promoted the cultivation of more than 3800 provincial demonstration platforms and 2600 provincial demonstration bases. At the same time, we also support 101 development zones across the country to create characteristic carriers of innovation and entrepreneurship, which have played a very important role. We actively play the role of public service platform network for small and medium-sized enterprises, drive social service institutions, and provide SMEs with accessible, affordable and guaranteed services. In order to thoroughly implement the decision-making and deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and effectively help small and medium-sized enterprises to help them relieve their difficulties and enable their innovation and empowerment, in March, the Ministry of industry and Information Technology launched the service action of "benefiting enterprises together", and organized and deployed the competent departments of small and medium-sized enterprises in various regions to give full play to the backbone supporting role of the public service platform for small and medium-sized enterprises, and gather and drive various high-quality service resources, Organize services for enterprises, parks and clusters, send policies, management and technology to small and medium-sized enterprises, stabilize market expectations, strengthen development confidence, and promote the steady and healthy development of small and medium-sized enterprises.

With the theme of "Publicizing policies, implementing policies, relieving problems and promoting development", our service activities have put forward 12 service items in two aspects. On the one hand, it focuses on "propaganda policy and implementation policy", and interprets the policy of benefiting enterprises through multiple channels and forms. Through all kinds of policy services at all levels, Internet platforms and app applications, we can accurately push policies, widely carry out policy interpretation and consultation, and help SMEs enjoy policies and promote the implementation of preferential policies. On the other hand, focusing on solving problems and promoting development, it focuses on the weaknesses and weaknesses of small and medium-sized enterprises in Entrepreneurship and innovation, digital transformation and management improvement, and market development, so as to help small and medium-sized enterprises effectively solve specific difficulties and problems encountered in production, operation and development, continuously improve service quality, accurately meet the service needs of enterprises, and enhance their sense of gain.

In addition, the Ministry of industry and information technology, as the comprehensive management department of the State Council to promote the development of small and medium-sized enterprises and the Department where the leading group office of the State Council promotes the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, will, together with the members of the leading group, launch the activities of service month for small and medium-sized enterprises in June. Recently, we, together with the Ministry of education and other relevant departments, launched a 100 day online recruitment activity for college graduates from small and medium-sized enterprises across the country, focusing on promoting the docking of university graduates and supply and demand of small and medium-sized enterprises.

Last week, the Ministry of industry and information technology issued the 2022 work plan of the industrial Internet special working group. What achievements have been made in the development of China's industrial Internet? What will be the focus of this year?

In particular, Zhao Zhiguo, director of the State Council and the Ministry of information and communications, should attach great importance to the development of the Internet industry in the five-year report. The Ministry of industry and information technology, together with other parties, has vigorously promoted the innovative development of industrial Internet, which should be said to have achieved positive results. According to the data from research institutions of the Ministry of industry and information technology, the scale of the industrial Internet industry has now passed the trillion yuan mark.

In the first quarter of this year, the development situation of industrial Internet was gratifying, which laid a good start for the work of the whole year. First, the development momentum continued to improve. Last week, the Ministry of industry and information technology, together with 19 member ministries and commissions of the industrial Internet special working group, released the 2022 work plan and put forward a series of work measures, which attracted wide attention from the market. In the government work reports, 21 provinces, autonomous regions and cities have also listed the industrial Internet as the work tasks of this year, actively deployed and accelerated the construction of industrial Internet demonstration areas in many places. Second, the industry application is deepening. In the first quarter, we launched 123 industrial Internet pilot demonstration projects and 4 industrial demonstration bases, creating new benchmarks such as workshop level, enterprise level and cluster level. From the industry point of view, the industrial Internet has been applied in 45 major categories of national economy. From the perspective of industry, the industrial Internet not only promotes the improvement of quality, cost reduction and efficiency of individual enterprises, but also promotes the coordinated and efficient operation of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. From the perspective of links, industrial Internet has been widely used in R & D design, production and manufacturing, operation management and other links, especially 5g is accelerating its extension to production control. Third, key projects were accelerated. In the first quarter, 75 projects including the international root node of the industrial Internet identity resolution system and the national industrial Internet big data center were completed and put into operation. The total number of "5g + industrial Internet" projects under construction in China reached 2400.

On the whole, China's industrial Internet is still in a critical period of development, and industrial development is still facing a series of real problems and new topics. It is urgent to give full play to the efforts of the government, industry, University and Research Institute to make breakthroughs. In the next step, we will resolutely implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, work with relevant departments to solidly promote various work, and speed up the upgrading of industrial Internet. We will focus on four aspects of work:

The first is to start new projects and make a good "battle" to strengthen the chain and supplement the chain. We will implement a new round of industrial Internet innovation and development project, strengthen the tackling of key technology products' short board, improve the quality of platform technology supply, promote the interconnection and interoperability of equipment and systems, and strengthen the construction of innovation carriers, actively create the industrial Internet digital transformation promotion center, and improve the public service system.

The second is to strengthen the new infrastructure and play a good role in the digital economy. We will moderately advance the construction of network, platform and security systems, improve the efficiency of key facilities such as industrial Internet big data center, identification analysis system and security situation awareness system, expand the coverage of regions, industries and fields, increase the number of service enterprises, promote the data circulation, effective utilization and security guarantee of industrial Internet, and consolidate the foundation for the development of digital economy.

The third is to expand new applications and play the "team competition" of integration and innovation. Promote the integration of industrial Internet and subdivided industries, accelerate the promotion of new models and new formats, create 5g fully connected factory benchmark, excavate typical application scenarios at production line level and workshop level, promote the industrial Internet platform to enter the park, carry out classified and hierarchical management of network security of industrial Internet enterprises, and accelerate the digital transformation of thousands of industries, parks and enterprises.

Fourth, we should study new policies and make good use of the "combination fist" to support development. In view of the practical challenges existing in the industrial development, this paper studies more practical and hard measures to "quench thirst". We should broaden financing channels, deepen industrial and financial cooperation, and guide industrial investment funds and other capital to increase investment in industrial Internet. The integration of enterprise and enterprise, and the construction of industrial training system should be strengthened.

Recently, some entrepreneurs said that if the supply chain in Shanghai and its surrounding areas can not resume work in May, all the supply chains in Shanghai involved in industry need to be shut down. A few days ago, the relevant departments issued guidelines for resumption of work and production. What is the analysis of the supply chain situation by the Ministry of industry and information technology? Under the epidemic situation, does the enterprise have enough appropriate staff to enable the enterprise to resume production as soon as possible and avoid the shutdown of the supply chain?

Luojunjie: ensuring the smoothness and stability of the industrial chain supply chain is related to the overall situation of economic and social development and the overall situation of security and stability. The Party Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to it. Recently, we have seen from various media that the State Council has held many meetings and issued relevant policies and measures, which require us to do our best to ensure the smooth transportation of freight logistics, and coordinate to solve the outstanding problems restricting the stability of the industrial chain supply chain. Yesterday morning, the State Council held a teleconference to ensure the smooth flow of logistics and promote the stability of the industrial chain supply chain, and deployed ten urgent measures. These measures are all practical and hard measures. For example, it is necessary to issue and use the national uniform pass, and the national mutual recognition of nucleic acid test results within 48 hours, implement the closed-loop management of "pick and go, and pursue", establish the white list of key industries and foreign trade enterprises, and so on, which requires "people's livelihood support, continuous freight transportation and continuous production".

In the next step, the Ministry of industry and information technology will thoroughly implement the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, coordinate the epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, adhere to the work requirements of "people's livelihood should support the bottom, freight transport should be unblocked, and industries should be recycled", and various measures should be taken to promote stable production and resumption of production of key industrial enterprises, so as to ensure the smooth and stable supply chain of the industrial chain, Promote the smooth operation of the industrial economy.

One is to take multiple measures to ensure the smooth and stable supply chain of the industrial chain.

The second is to optimize services and strengthen the accurate support of communication big data.

Third, continue to make efforts to help small and medium-sized enterprises tide over difficulties.

Fourth, we will ensure the supply of key medical and living materials in a strict and practical manner.

The Ministry of industry and information technology has previously said that it plans to cultivate about 3000 new "little giant" enterprises this year. How is the current work going? What's the next step for the cultivation plan of "specialized and special new" SMEs?

Luo Junjie: it is a strategic measure to guide small and medium-sized enterprises to take the road of "specialization, specialty and innovation" to promote the high-quality development of small and medium-sized enterprises and consolidate and strengthen the foundation of the real economy. This is an important foundation for the stable development of our industry. The Party Central Committee and the State Council have always attached great importance to the work of small and medium-sized enterprises. General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that "small and medium-sized enterprises can do great things" and repeatedly instructed to speed up the cultivation of a number of specialized and special new enterprises and single champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry. This year's "government work report" proposes to "focus on the cultivation of 'specialized, special and new' enterprises, and give strong support in terms of funds, talents, and the construction of incubation platforms".

The Ministry of industry and information technology has carried out the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, and actively promoted the cultivation of specialized, special and new small and medium-sized enterprises, and achieved certain results. In the next step, we will, in accordance with the cultivation plan of "one hundred thousand", that is, we will strive to cultivate one million innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, one hundred thousand specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, ten thousand "small giants" enterprises and one thousand single champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry, so as to effectively promote the implementation of the cultivation of specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises. The main work is as follows:

One is to further strengthen gradient cultivation. This year, we are going to cultivate about 3000 more small and medium-sized enterprises with provincial expertise and innovation, and we will work with the Ministry of finance to support the high-quality development of a number of "small giant" enterprises. At present, we are improving the identification standard of "little giant" enterprises, and plan to start the fourth batch of "little giant" enterprises cultivation and identification work around May. We have always believed that the cultivation work should first rely on the strength of the market. Only the market can identify and explore potential enterprises and provide in-depth professional support for technology, capital, talents and other aspects. At the same time, we should give better play to the role of the government, guide the supply of high-quality services in the market, provide policy guarantees, and create a good environment. Generally speaking, the key to the cultivation of specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises is to realize the better combination of effective market and promising government. Grasping this key, high-quality enterprises will naturally emerge.

Second, around the industrial chain to promote the development of large and medium-sized enterprises. We will launch the "joint action" with relevant departments to promote the financing and innovation of large and medium-sized enterprises. Through policy guidance, mechanism construction and platform building, we will promote the formation of a collaborative, efficient, integrated and smooth financing and innovation ecology for large and medium-sized enterprises, encourage and guide leading enterprises, and open up technologies, markets, standards and standards for small and medium-sized enterprises in accordance with the principles of marketization and legalization Talents and other innovative resources will guide large enterprises to create a number of typical financing modes of large and medium-sized enterprises through ecological construction, base cultivation, internal incubation, enabling and driving, and data connectivity, so as to stimulate the emergence of a number of specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises with outstanding coordination and supporting capabilities.

Third, support small and medium-sized enterprises to accelerate digital transformation. Digital transformation is a required course for SMEs to enhance their competitiveness. We will strengthen policy guidance and experience promotion, summarize a number of mature models and paths of digital transformation, issue evaluation standards and evaluation models for small and medium-sized enterprises, and formulate digital transformation roadmap for small and medium-sized enterprises in key industries and fields, so as to provide visible and tangible typical cases and tools for more small and medium-sized enterprises. Encourage local governments to innovate financial support methods, guide and help small and medium-sized enterprises in digital transformation and reduce transformation costs.
