On the first working day after the Spring Festival in the Year of the Dragon, "new quality productivity" has become a new bright spot in many places to promote high-quality development.
In Hefei, Anhui Province, the humanoid robot industrial park officially started, and the annual output value of the project will exceed 1 billion yuan after it reaches production; Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, plans to start construction of 147 strategic emerging industry projects in the first quarter; In Changsha, Hunan Province, "low-altitude and high-flying" has opened a new track ...... trillion-dollar industryAll localities have ignited the "strong engine" of innovation and accelerated the cultivation of new momentum for development.
However, some people in the United States and the West wear "colored glasses" and claim that "China's economic growth is sluggish and lacks momentum" and that "China's prosperity is nearing its end."
Such a "peaking" argument is pure nonsense.
It ignores a basic fact that China's economy has shifted from a stage of rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development in the new era, and the mode of development is changing from a factor input-driven to an innovation-driven one. The new quality of productive forces that have accelerated the development of various localities is a leading role in innovation, which has the characteristics of high technology, high efficiency and high quality, getting rid of the traditional economic growth mode and the development path of productive forces.
It ignores the determination of China's macroeconomic policy. In the new era, China's economy is not only pursuing growth rate, but attaches more importance to "effective improvement in quality and reasonable growth in quantity".
Looking at a few sets of data, you can feel the surging new momentum of China's economy.
One minute, China produced 10 new energy vehicles; The "Fuxing" EMU train can travel 5,833 meters; The Beidou Navigation Satellite System has been accessed by users in more than 200 countries and regions more than 70 million times ......Today's Chinese economy is full of industrial innovation vitality.
In seconds, the quantum computing prototype "Chapter 3" only needs one millionth of a second to solve a specific mathematical problem; The average file rate of 5G mobile phone users exceeds 139 megabits; The average first-time latency is only 056 seconds ......Today's Chinese economy is constantly improving its technological content.
Let's look at a few more scenes.
In the Ningbo Zhoushan Port Area, tens of thousands of new energy vehicles were assembled on board the ship and drifted to sea by sea; At the Khorgos port, the train is running with cars, and the China-Europe train is lined up in a long line. In 2023, the output of solar cells, new energy vehicles, and generator sets (power generation equipment) products will increase respectively. 5%。Behind the double-digit growth is the perfect combination of China's strong market and production and supply capacity, which breeds unlimited potential.
Humanoid robots can not only carry items, but also realize dexterous operations such as twisting bottle caps and holding water cups; Industrial robots, proficient in welding, grabbing, assembly, and handling. In 2023, the output of intelligent products such as service robots and 3D printing equipment in China will increase respectively. 2%。According to a report by the International Federation of Robotics, China's robot installation accounts for 52% of the world's installations, with a running stock of more than 1.5 million units.
The first alpine test flight of the domestic large-scale civil ***AC313A was completed, and China's largest deep-sea multi-functional rescue ship was put into use. In 2023, the added value of China's equipment manufacturing industry will increase by 6 percent over the previous year8%, contributing nearly 50% to the growth of all industries above the designated size.
The development of the three industries reflects the direction of China's high-end, intelligent and green industrial transformation. The acceleration of transformation has led to the vigorous development of emerging industries and the continuous growth of new economic drivers.
The data from different dimensions point to the same fact and trend: China's new economic growth momentum is continuing to grow.
Electricity consumption is the "thermometer" of the development of the industry. According to data from the China Electricity Council, the electricity consumption of photovoltaic equipment and components manufacturing industry will increase by 76% year-on-year in 20238%, the electricity consumption of new energy vehicles increased by 38 year-on-year8%, and the electricity consumption of high-tech and equipment manufacturing industry increased by 11 year-on-year3%。The change in the electricity situation confirms the trend of transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry.
The number of enterprises is the "wind vane" of the development of the industry. After more than ten years of rapid development, the scale of China's strategic emerging industry enterprises has continued to grow. As of September 2023, the total number of enterprises in strategic emerging industries has exceeded 2 million. The larger the scale of the business entity, the stronger the vitality of the industry and the more innovative momentum.
As Wang Changlin, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, commented, after 2023, the development of China's strategic emerging industries has changed from a single-point breakthrough to a group leap, becoming an important force supporting economic growth.
Connecting the present and the future, new quality productivity is accelerating, and more emerging kinetic energy is accumulating.
In 2023, China's investment in high-tech industries will increase by 10 percent over the previous year3%, the growth rate is 7 times higher than the total investment in fixed assets3 percentage points. Among them, the investment in high-tech manufacturing increased by 9 percent over the previous year9%, and investment in high-tech services increased by 11 percent over the previous year4%。
Today's profitable investment is tomorrow's high-quality supply. Experts**, generative AI is expected to contribute nearly 90 trillion yuan of economic value to the world in 2035, of which China will exceed 30 trillion yuan, accounting for more than 40%.
China's experience in cultivating emerging drivers has become a reference for many countries. Xia Huasheng, an economist at the Vargas Association in Brazil, pointed out that the rapid growth of high-tech, digital economy and new energy has increased the weight of China's economy, and "China is moving forward on the right path."
Looking back, some Western ** "singing" about China's economy has never stopped. It can be said that China's economy has risen in this kind of rhetoric.
Looking ahead, we are still full of confidence, with innovation as the characteristic, quality as the key, and advanced productivity as the essence, the "high-growth" Chinese economy is enough to say no to the "peaking" argument.
