Qin Weizhong said that in 2023, Shenzhen will accelerate the construction of the world’s leading and important advanced manufacturing center, accelerate the development of new quality productivity, and expand and strengthen the “20+8” strategic emerging industrial clusters and future industries. Seven industrial clusters, including new energy, new materials and intelligent robots, registered double-digit growth.

It is understood that Shenzhen has formulated the “18 articles” of high-quality development of new energy vehicles, the output value of the city’s new energy vehicle manufacturing industry will increase by 85.3% in 2023, and the second phase of Shenzhou-Shantou BYD Auto Industrial Park will achieve vehicle production line. In addition, Shenzhen has also introduced electrochemical energy storage “20”, in 2023, the city’s electrochemical energy storage industry output value increased by 16.1%.

A06B-6096-H106  As one of the world’s consumer electronics production and manufacturing centers, Shenzhen’s consumer electronics industry is also booming in 2023. In 2023, the output of smart phones, displays and tablet computers in Shenzhen increased by 10.2%, 16.2% and 24.2% respectively.

Manufacturing is the foundation of a strong city

How will Shenzhen promote the further development of various industries in 2024? Qin Weizhong said that Shenzhen will enhance the integrity, advancement and safety of the industrial system.

A06B-6096-H106  Specifically, Shenzhen will implement the energy upgrading project of the new industrial cluster in 2024, improve and improve the “20+8” strategic emerging industrial cluster and future industrial system, formulate and introduce planning policy version 2.0, and strive to achieve the goal of “the added value of strategic emerging industries exceeds 1.5 trillion yuan, an increase of more than 7%”.

At the same time, Shenzhen will promote the iterative upgrading of pillar emerging industries such as network and communication, intelligent terminals, and ultra-high-definition video display, seize new industrial wind outlets such as new energy, intelligent connected vehicles, low altitude and space economy, and build a new generation of world-class automobile cities. We will accelerate the development of semiconductor and integrated circuit manufacturing, biomedicine, industrial mother-machines, high-end precision instruments and equipment, and industrial software, and foster new growth points in future industries such as embodied intelligent robots, synthetic biology, brain science and brain health, cells and genes, and quantum information.

A06B-6096-H106  In addition, Shenzhen will also implement industrial investment speed and quality improvement projects, build and put into operation Founder micro semiconductor base, China Resources micro electric 12-inch production line, Jiulongshan Industrial Park, Xinwangda lithium-ion battery intelligent manufacturing Industrial Park, accelerate the construction of BYD global research and development center, German nano new energy storage and other projects. In 2024, Shenzhen is expected to start construction of two new major advanced manufacturing projects with tens of billions of yuan, achieving an increase of more than 15% in industrial investment.

In 2024, Shenzhen will also implement the industrial basic capacity improvement project, focusing on high-end manufacturing equipment, core basic software, key parts, advanced materials and production technology and other industrial basic common technologies, carry out 25 industrial base reconstruction, 10 major technology and equipment research projects, actively promote the scale application of domestic industrial software, and build an online industrial technology research institute.

“The real economy is the foundation of development, and the manufacturing industry is the foundation of a strong city. We must strive to take the lead in the development of new quality productivity and stand on the top of the development of the global science and technology industry.” Qin Weizhong said.
