On October 21, the 2023 China Industrial Enterprise Innovation Conference and the fourth Modern Industrial Enterprise innovation Achievement List release ceremony was held in Changsha, Hunan province. Li Yizhong, President of China Federation of Industrial Economics, attended and made a keynote speech on “Industrial Enterprises Innovating in Promoting New Industrialization”.

When talking about the responsibility and responsibility of industrial enterprises to “keep innovation” in the new era and new journey, Li Yizhong pointed out that industrialization should be driven by innovation, fully develop basic research and applied research, attach importance to technological innovation and the transformation of achievements, and generate new productive forces.

In the new era and on a new journey, we will promote theoretical and practical innovation in new industrialization

Li Yizhong pointed out that industrialization is the premise and foundation of modernization. From the “one modernization and three reforms” in the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China to the realization of the “four modernizations” and then to the building of a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, the Party Central Committee and The State Council established the development policy of industrialization and laid the basic framework for industrialization after numerous hardships. The 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly put forward the major strategy of taking the new industrialization road, and made the conclusion that “informatization drives industrialization, industrialization promotes informatization”, and the synchronous and coordinated development of “two industrialization” is a major theoretical innovation. The 16th National Congress gave the definition of “high technical content, good economic benefits, low resource consumption, less environmental pollution, and full play of human resource advantages”, after years of practice, we have overcome many difficulties and obstacles, and accumulated valuable experience.

“Consolidate and strengthen the foundation of the real economy,” “carry out industrial base reconstruction and major technological equipment research projects,” and “promote the high-end, intelligent and green development of manufacturing.”

We must fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, balance development and security, deeply grasp the basic law of advancing the new type of industrialization in the new era and on a new journey, actively adapt to and lead the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, carry out high-quality development throughout the whole process of new industrialization, and integrate building a strong manufacturing country with developing the digital economy and industrial information technology. To build a strong material and technological foundation for Chinese-style modernization.

First, major changes in the world have brought severe challenges. All countries are adjusting their industrial structure, and the international industrial chain and supply chain are undergoing setbacks and restructuring. This has made us further realize the importance and urgency of improving our overall national strength, and aroused the sense of responsibility and mission of our industry to “grow from big to strong”.

Second, we will strengthen and develop the deep integration of industrialization and IT application. The digital economy has become a world trend, and the integration of the two is the characteristic of The Times and the internal driving force of the new industrialization. From the integration of the two to the Internet application, to the digital economy and digital China, it has become a national strategy.

Third, the coordinated development of the “Four Modernizations” and their simultaneous realization. The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee proposed that a new type of industrialization, IT application, urbanization, and agricultural modernization be basically realized by 2035. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China stressed that socialist modernization should be basically realized by 2035, which has given a new mission and a new level to the new type of industrialization.

Fourth, the new industrialization has fully, accurately and comprehensively implemented the new development concept. We will coordinate the layout of various fields, industries and regional industries to complement each other’s strengths and develop differences. Promote the goal of “double carbon”, implement the reform of “quality, power and efficiency”, take people as the center, and achieve high-quality development.

Fifth, the new type of industrialization should be promoted while building a new pattern of development. With the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycle promoting each other, we will strive to improve the strength, resilience and safety of the industrial chain and supply chain. We should expand opening-up and cooperation, respond to external challenges, establish and improve a large unified domestic market, and ensure a smooth economic cycle.
