In recent years, innovation has become a high-frequency word, key word and must for Shaanxi to promote high-quality development. As a province with a large number of institutions of higher learning, scientific research institutes and distinctive enterprises, Shaanxi has rich innovation resources. How to transform its unique innovation advantages into high-quality development has become a topic that Shaanxi cadres and masses need to think deeply about.

　　 Accelerated upgrading of traditional industries

Textile is a typical traditional industry and also a labor-intensive industry. However, the production workshop of Shaanxi Buyu Textile Co., Ltd., located in Mei County, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province, presents a new scene of digital textile. Here, the company has built an intelligent production line of 180000 ring spinning spindles and 1500 air jet looms, and built a textile industry production, learning and research base integrating spinning testing center, intelligent loom research room and special fiber research and development laboratory.

In the bright command center, the reporter saw Sun Longgang, manager of the Information Technology Department of Shaanxi Buyu Textile Co., Ltd., click to open the spinning management system, and then called out the detailed information of No. 13 spinning machine. The system can not only see the operator's name, shift and team, but also monitor the number of invalid spindles, common broken ends, weak twist and other operating data in real time, and dynamically compare the use efficiency of different carding machines. "In the past, such data needed to be recorded manually by employees and analyzed during shift handover. Now we can track it in real time and conduct scientific analysis on energy consumption per ton of yarn and per machine energy consumption," Sun Longgang said.

Liu Lei, assistant general manager of Shaanxi Buyu Textile Co., Ltd., said that digital transformation has become the key to enhance enterprise competitiveness and sustainable development. In recent years, their company has applied spinning SPC system, UFIDA U8 system, park all-in-one card system and Zhiyuan OA system with the support of the local government after in-depth demonstration and continuous innovation, and tried to promote information sharing among the systems. Through digital transformation, Boyu Textile Company has achieved the full value chain information coverage from customer ordering, manufacturing to product delivery, effectively shortened the delivery cycle while improving product quality, and played a role in cost reduction and efficiency increase. Last year, the company was rated as the advanced collective of economic benefits of Shaanxi textile industry in 2021.

Zhang Hua, Deputy Director of Baoji Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology, said that Baoji's relevant indicators had ranked among the top 100 in China last year in terms of advanced manufacturing, specialized and new "little giant" enterprises, technological innovation competitiveness and innovative city innovation capability. Next, we will gather innovation resources, stimulate innovation vitality, overcome key technologies, accelerate the transformation of achievements, continue to cultivate first-class innovation subjects, create first-class innovation platforms, create first-class innovation environment, and promote high-quality development of the manufacturing industry.

　　 Strong foundation of advantageous industries

On July 12, with a light rain in the sky, the reporter came to Shanghai Chuangli Yulin Coal Machinery Equipment Manufacturing Phase I Project located in Yuheng Industrial Zone, Yulin City, Shaanxi Province. The total investment of the project is 500 million yuan. After completion, it can produce shearers, roadheader, emulsion pumps and complete sets of equipment for the fully mechanized working face. At present, the construction of the main structure of the basement here has been completed, the installation of steel beams, steel columns, tie rods, etc. in Area A of the combined plant has been completed, graded crushed stone backfilling is being carried out in Area B of the combined plant, and the setting out and excavation of outdoor works are being carried out. When it is fully completed and put into operation next year, it is estimated that the output value per mu per year will be 5.32 million yuan, the tax revenue will be 400000 yuan, and about 300 people will be employed.

Yulin has become rich due to coal in recent years, but it is difficult to keep mining and selling coal. The local government strives to improve the development quality of advantageous industries around resource advantages. Cui Rui, the general manager of Shaanxi Yuneng Chuangli Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd., the main investor of the project, told the reporter that the mining machinery produced by the company has been able to achieve high-end manufacturing and import substitution because of its ability to manufacture core equipment of coal machinery and successfully assemble complete sets of intelligent coal machinery equipment.

In the project exhibition hall, a casting named guiding slipper attracted the attention of the reporter. It is painted with red paint. Although it is ugly, it is an important part of the shearer and plays a guiding and supporting role in the "walking" of the shearer. In actual use, due to the complex stress and poor underground geological conditions, the guide slipper is easy to be worn or even damaged, thus affecting the normal production of the working face. Cui Rui told the reporter that through their company's independent research and development and technical research, the wear resistance of this guide shoe has exceeded that of imported parts, and its reliability and service life have also been significantly improved.

For Shaanxi, industry is the "anchor" of development, and innovation is the "sail" of efforts. In view of this, the local government insists on deploying the innovation chain around the industrial chain, laying out the industrial chain around the innovation chain, making two-way efforts from the technology supply and demand traction, and promoting the close integration of innovation activities and industrial development. Wang Jun, member of the Science and Technology Working Committee of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee and deputy director of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology, said that he would continue to accelerate the gathering of innovation resources to enterprises, focus on improving enterprise innovation capabilities, and promote short board industries to supplement the chain, advantageous industries to extend the chain, traditional industries to upgrade the chain, and emerging industries to build the chain.

　　 Emerging industries are stepping fast and steadily

Only innovators advance, only innovators are strong, and only innovators win. In order to catch up and surpass, Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee and Shaanxi Provincial Government firmly implement the innovation driven development strategy. Since 2021, the local government has started the construction of a new driving platform for Qin Chuang's original creation. Adhering to the principle of enterprise, talent, market and government, the innovation and development has begun to take effect and gradually changed from potential to energy. As of June 30, there were 13154 technology-based SMEs in Shaanxi Province, 1.53 times the number of the same period last year. As of July 3, there were 24883 registered technology contracts in Shaanxi Province, with a turnover of 170.484 billion yuan, an increase of 35.38% over the same period last year.

Shaanxi Xixian New Area, based on the general window of Qin Chuangyuan, has continuously played the role of "three reforms" igniter, investment promotion amplifier, innovation platform aggregator, service guarantee booster, and collaborative innovation multiplier, steadily promoted the construction of three major markets of talent, capital, and science and technology, and officially put into use the "four centers" of talent exchange, innovation support, achievement display, and talent service. From January to May this year, Qin Chuangyuan's General Window added 189 universities and colleges to transform scientific and technological achievements, 2.4 times that of the same period last year; 1927 technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises were fostered, and 247 "top five" enterprises were added.

In June this year, the project of Longji Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. with an annual output of 100GW monocrystalline silicon chips and 50GW monocrystalline batteries was started in Jinghe New City, Xixian New Area. The total investment of the project is about 45.2 billion yuan, of which the second phase (headquarters) project of Longji Central Research Institute, known as the "photovoltaic brain", covers an area of 410 mu. After completion, it will be mainly engaged in scientific research and development, pilot test, public testing, etc. of new technologies in the photovoltaic industry. After putting into use, about 4000 high-end scientific research talents will be introduced in succession, and the proportion of people with master's and doctoral degrees will exceed 85%.

According to the relevant person in charge of Jinghe New Town, they have formed the idea of "chain development" in recent years because they realized the disadvantages of the lack of supporting services for industrial development in the past, so as to do a good job in providing in-depth services for investment attraction and give enterprises more tangible sense of gain. Taking the photovoltaic industry as an example, Jinghe New Town released a 100 billion yuan photovoltaic industry cluster construction plan last July, drew a precise panorama of the photovoltaic industry chain around Longji Green Energy, a "chain leader" enterprise, sorted out 12 lists including the list of "chain leader" enterprises, the list of backbone enterprises, and the list of major supporting enterprises in the relevant industry chain, and connected them one by one through the "chain leader system" to attract investment precisely, Try to get through the blockages of the industrial chain and connect the breakpoints of the industrial chain. Up to now, a batch of upstream and downstream photovoltaic enterprises, such as the Laplacian photovoltaic and semiconductor process equipment R&D and manufacturing base, Shenzhen Crystal Semiconductor Co., Ltd., have settled down, and dozens of enterprises are making clear their cooperation intentions. A photovoltaic industrial cluster with advanced technology and coordinated upstream and downstream development is gradually maturing.

Zhao Gang, Deputy Secretary of Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee and Governor of Shaanxi Province, said that in the future, he will give full play to the advantages of science and education resources enrichment, accelerate the construction of Xi'an's comprehensive national science center and science and technology innovation center, pay close attention to sorting out and drawing the map of science and technology and industrial innovation, and strive to solve the problems of "choking" key core technologies and key industrial chain development difficulties and blockages; At the same time, it will also increase the support for scientific and technological innovation, continue to strengthen the guarantee of talent, capital and other elements, continue to optimize the innovation and entrepreneurship ecology, and strive to make new breakthroughs in scientific and technological innovation and industrial transformation and upgrading in Shaanxi.
