"Last year, the export volume of China's equipment manufacturing industry was as high as 50 billion US dollars, compared with 120 million in seven or eight years, an increase of more than 400 times, with an average annual growth rate of 33%, higher than the average annual growth rate of 15.8 in foreign trade exports in the same period, and the proportion of total foreign trade exports was as high as 25.5%, accounting for 55.7% of the increase in foreign trade exports, and has become an important force in driving export growth......"

Bao Feiyang said: "But we should also see that last year, China's imports of equipment manufacturing products reached 70 billion US dollars, accounting for 42.7% of the country's total foreign trade imports, and the import and export trade deficit was as high as 21.1 billion US dollars." Moreover, the proportion of equipment manufacturing product imports in the total import continues to increase, only 31% in 90 years, 42% in 99 years, the use of foreign exchange increased from 16.8 billion US dollars to 71 billion yuan, an increase of more than 3 times in nine years, with an average annual growth rate of more than 17%, and the import cost in 99 years was as high as 630 billion yuan, and the whole society spent only 705.3 billion yuan on the purchase of equipment and tools that year, which shows that imported equipment occupies a lot of national construction costs......

Bao Feiyang said: "From these data, we see two problems, one is that the equipment manufacturing industry is very important, only in terms of scale, has become an important part of China's national economy, as well as an important part of China's foreign trade exports, if there is a problem in this industry, it will have a very big impact on our foreign trade and the national economy......

"The second problem is that although the total volume is already very considerable, and even the scale of exports is relatively large, our demand is greater, and we export low-end products and imported ...... There are low-end, there are mid-range, and as for the really high-end products, we also want to import, but in fact we can't import them, because others don't sell them to us. A lot of the equipment we import is high-end enough in our opinion, but in the world, it is actually low-end goods, and even products that others are about to obsolete. ”

"We produce so many low-end goods, it seems that the scale is large, but in fact, it is not big but not strong, but still very weak. As far as the power generation equipment industry is concerned, the output of China's power generation equipment ranks fourth in the world, but our output is not as good as half of the United States General Electric Company, the total turnover and total assets of the five major electrical groups are only 4.16% and 2.49% of General Electric Company, whether it is the volume or the technical level, the gap is so big that it makes people desperate. ”

Bao Feiyang smiled and said: "Of course, we will not despair, no matter how big the gap is, it will only become the driving force for us to catch up." Only by seeing the gap can we find the direction of catching up and working hard. In this regard, we have also made a lot of achievements. For example, the annual output of 10 million tons of open-pit mining equipment, 5 million tons of underground mining equipment, Daqin line heavy-haul train equipment, 35,000 tons of shallow draft, 12,000 tons of ultra-shallow draft coal carriers, Gezhouba hub project 170 megawatt axial flow hydropower units, Yantan power station 550 megawatts of francis hydropower units, 300 megawatts of Qinshan nuclear power plant complete sets of equipment, 500,000 tons of acrylic fiber complete sets of equipment, 6,000 meters of oil drilling rigs, Shuguang 300, Yinhe 3, Shenwei supercomputer ......"

Bao Feiyang said: "Tianjiangzui Equipment Manufacturing Industrial Park is to benchmark this gap, aim at the world's advanced technology level, and aim to build a world-class equipment manufacturing industrial base. ”

"The so-called follow-up is to keep up with international development and gradually narrow the gap for most equipment industries. This is for the development status of the domestic equipment manufacturing industry, for most of the basic products, some large quantities of general-purpose equipment, constituting the main export of China's equipment products, we must continue to improve their production technology level on the existing basis, keep up with international development, continue to maintain and expand the scale of production and export. Although there is still a big gap in the development capacity, production level, system design and complete set of capabilities of this type of equipment, multinational enterprises do not have many restrictions on industrial transfer, investment cooperation and technology transfer due to the pursuit of economic interests and the strategic consideration of their own technological upgrading. For this kind of products, we can actively introduce technology, introduce investment projects, strive for technical cooperation, etc., introduce, digest and absorb advanced technology, and then gradually narrow the gap through innovation and localization, and become bigger and stronger. For the park, it is necessary to promote the investment and construction of such projects through policy guidance and support, form the scale of the park in the equipment manufacturing industry, and strive to develop a number of equipment manufacturing enterprises with strong comprehensive strength, high technical level and innovation ability......"

Bao Feiyang paused for a moment and continued: "For the breakthrough on the surface, we encourage private enterprises to enter, and also encourage joint ventures and foreign-funded projects to enter, only when the water in the pond is sufficient, and then it is good to raise fish and raise big fish......"

"The breakthrough at the point refers to the equipment that is closely related to the national economic security and national defense security, and the key equipment that foreign countries are unwilling to transfer technology and production to us, we must take advantage of the late-mover advantage and focus on supporting the technical research and industrial breakthroughs of related projects; ”

On the one hand, the park should introduce popular equipment manufacturing projects through investment promotion, which should be leading in China, but in the world, there may still be a certain gap. Attracting these projects, including various joint venture projects, can expand the equipment manufacturing industry in the park. In fact, this part is mainly through attracting foreign investment projects, joint venture projects, and the participation of public and private small and medium-sized enterprises. In order to attract related industries to the park, the park mainly provides various policy supports, such as tax reductions and exemptions, land fee reductions and exemptions, financing policy support, research and development funding support, etc., and the city may also actively guide relevant municipal state-owned enterprises to settle in. For those breakthrough projects, the city and the park will increase support, and even direct investment, to support related enterprises and R&D projects.

Bao Feiyang continued: "According to the requirements of national economic development and the current situation of Pujiang City's economic development, we have tentatively identified several key breakthrough points, including precision processing equipment in metal processing, high-grade power transmission and transformation equipment in power and electricity, marine engineering equipment in complete sets of equipment, transportation construction equipment, advanced textile machinery, etc., among which marine equipment is mainly undertaken by Dongsha base, and Tianjiangzui Park mainly tackles precision processing equipment, high-grade power transmission and transformation equipment, The four points of transportation construction equipment and textile machinery strive to break through the shackles of technology, catch up with the world's advanced level, and cultivate industrial giants with the world's advanced level in related industries......"

Bao Feiyang said: "While forming an industrial cluster, Tianjiangzui Equipment Industrial Park should also cultivate its own fist products and representative enterprises, and cultivate a number of distinctive equipment industry clusters. The key to the development of the park is whether it can improve the ability of independent innovation and technology research and development, and the park should not only vigorously promote the introduction of technology, but also actively support independent research and development and independent innovation. Therefore, we plan to cooperate with the university town to establish targeted research institutes and R&D centers, and establish a complete and hierarchical R&D system. ”

"In this system, the park will cooperate with the university town, cooperate with relevant universities, establish research institutes in the park, such as the Precision Machining Technology Research Institute, introduce the strength of universities and research institutes in Pujiang, and use government support funds and enterprise funds to carry out targeted research on some projects!"

"Then we also want to encourage major enterprises to set up their own technology centers for technology development and technological innovation. ”

At the same time, the park can release R&D tasks and provide financial support for some technical difficulties, and also establish a market for technical exchanges and transactions, and promote the improvement of the overall technical strength of enterprises in the park through flexible transactions and cooperation. Encourage technical talents, especially those who study abroad and work in multinational companies, to return to China to start their own businesses. These talents have come into contact with and mastered the most advanced technology in the world, and some of them hold important positions in multinational enterprises, encourage them to return to China to start their own businesses, create a good investment and entrepreneurial environment, and even provide entrepreneurial financing support and investment support, so that they can bring back advanced technology and advanced management methods......"

Bao Feiyang focused on the way and direction of key breakthroughs in the park, the equipment manufacturing industry covers many industries, and there are many directions that need to be broken through. Not to mention a mere Tianjiangzui Industrial Park, even if it is Pujiang City, or even the whole of Huaguo, there is no way to make a comprehensive breakthrough, even if the park is now choosing several directions, if you want to make a comprehensive breakthrough, it is not possible to do it in a short time.

In contrast, the establishment of an effective R&D and innovation system, on this basis, focus on breakthroughs in some technologies, the future is likely to accumulate and grow, catch up with the world's advanced level.

On the one hand, only a strong industrial foundation can continuously promote technology research and development and innovation, on the other hand, technology research and development can also continue to feed back and promote the development of enterprises, and under mutual promotion, the equipment manufacturing industry in the park can continue to carry out technological upgrading.

In contrast, some Western countries are indeed much ahead of the technology now, but for the sake of labor costs and market occupation, some related industries are constantly transferring, and the transfer of a large number of industries will inevitably lead to a distance between their R & D and production.

Although, these countries must have strict control over core technologies, but with the breakthrough of peripheral technologies, as long as they concentrate their efforts, these core technologies will be broken sooner or later!
