　　 From January to February, the industrial economy has been running steadily

This year's government work report mentioned that it is necessary to promote the smooth operation of the industrial economy, strengthen the supply guarantee of raw materials and key components, implement the chain stability project of leading enterprises, and maintain the safety and stability of the industrial chain supply chain.

What is the current situation of China's industrial economy? What are the outstanding problems and difficulties? In this regard, Xiao Yaqing said that from the dispatching data of key regions, key industries and key enterprises, the steady operation of the industrial economy from January to February was very obvious, and generally maintained the steady situation in the fourth quarter of last year.

"We have very full confidence in the smooth operation of the industrial economy." Xiao Yaqing said: of course, there are still many difficulties and problems at present, such as the rising prices of raw materials, transportation difficulties and costs, and some areas that are not unblocked after the outbreak of the epidemic. The biggest is the change of external environment, which inevitably affects the smooth operation of industrial economy.

As for specific measures, Xiao Yaqing said that the next step is to implement the various policies issued by the Central Committee in a down-to-earth manner. In order to implement these policies, many supporting policies have been issued in various places. There are not only major measures to reduce taxes and fees, but also specific measures to increase deduction, encourage innovation, encourage more exports, and encourage consumption. "We will work with all departments to interpret, publicize and implement these policies."

The second is to break through the blocking points of the industrial chain supply chain and maintain the stability of the industrial chain supply chain. The supply of bulk raw materials and some key parts and components have an impact on some enterprises or industries. "We will do all kinds of work carefully in this respect, so as to make the supply chain smooth and complete, and give full play to the advantages of complete industrial categories."

The third is to improve the quality and upgrading of the industrial economy. Xiao Yaqing said that at present, the industrial economy is still in the process of industrial modernization. The total amount of industrial economy has been very large, and has remained the first in the world for 12 consecutive years. However, compared with high-level and high-end products, there are still many directions to be worked for. "We should make further efforts in green and low-carbon development, upgrading the level of manufacturing industry, improving the overall industrial capacity, and upgrading the core industrial capacity."

"Moreover, we should actively establish first-class enterprises." Xiao Yaqing said: our total amount is large, and a large number of enterprises have grown up in the process of development. This year, efforts should be made to establish first-class enterprises so as to significantly improve the competitiveness of market entities, play a leading and exemplary role in stabilizing the industrial economy and promoting the overall improvement of the industrial economy.

　　 Increase investment in manufacturing industry

The government work report mentioned that we should enhance the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry. What is the status quo of China's manufacturing industry? In what aspects will the Ministry of industry and information technology implement the requirements in the report?

"China's manufacturing industry has developed rapidly, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the central government attaches great importance to the development of manufacturing industry and the real economy, and has taken a series of major measures and measures." Xiao Yaqing introduced that China's total manufacturing industry has been ranked first in the world for 12 years. The 31 major categories of manufacturing industry, 207 medium categories of industry and 666 small categories are complete, which is unique in the world. This has provided a strong support for the development of China's industrial economy and the whole economy.

Xiao Yaqing said that the development of the manufacturing industry and the real economy is still the direction of our major efforts in the future. We should implement all the requirements put forward in the government work report.

First, increase investment in the manufacturing industry and maintain the overall stable share of the manufacturing industry. China's manufacturing industry is moving forward from the middle and low-end to the medium and high-end. In this process, there is a very large market potential, there are many opportunities for development, and enterprises also have a lot of space for development. In terms of meeting the needs of consumers, there is still a lot to continue to work hard. These are the space for our investment and development.

Second, the development of industrial clusters should be further improved. "Now the manufacturing industry has formed a very good advantage and a very good foundation. It is more important to play a good role in the existing basic stock, improve the quality and upgrade, and make greater progress. In this regard, the role of industrial clusters is more important."

Third, the development of small and medium-sized enterprises has played a fundamental role in the manufacturing industry. There are many small and medium-sized enterprises in the field of manufacturing industry, forming a manufacturing industry ecology in which large enterprises, medium-sized enterprises and small enterprises depend on and promote each other. "We should work hard to maintain and cultivate ecology, especially to support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises."

At the same time, the manufacturing industry should also work hard on improving the level and self-reliance. In the process of manufacturing industry moving towards high-end, it is necessary to solve the key core problems of self-reliance and self-improvement, so that the overall level can continuously rise and support the growth of the whole economy, especially the industrial economy. "In the process of manufacturing development, we should create a better environment, do a good job in service, do a good job in policy support, form a joint force, and support the manufacturing industry to be better, stronger and bigger."

　　 5g has a good foundation for rapid development in the future

Since 5g was put into commercial use, many enterprises take the use and development of 5g technology as an important opportunity. What are the considerations of MIIT in accelerating 5g development this year?

In this regard, Xiao Yaqing responded that the development of 5g is indeed a very good opportunity. 5g provides a lot of application opportunities, and the rapid development of 5g in the future has a good foundation.

Xiao Yaqing introduced that China's 5g network is now the world's leading and largest scale, with a total of more than 1.425 million base stations and more than 500 million users actually connected. We feel the convenience of life and work, and many application scenarios are constantly emerging. For example, he said that at the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, many of them were the application of 5g technology, which enriched the experience.

"Next, we still need to work hard on the construction of base stations. This year, we will strive to have more than 2 million base stations and lay a good network foundation." Xiao Yaqing said that at the same time, in terms of application, we should further expand and enrich the application scenarios on the basis of the existing ones, so as to make it convenient for everyone to work, especially their life.

"We also encourage more application cases, application scenarios, application software and application practices to emerge constantly. We will do a good job in promoting and leading demonstration, so that 5g applications can be more widely used."

Xiao Yaqing said that in the development process of 5g, all walks of life should form joint forces and integrate with each other, so as to keep 5g's development in the leading position in technology and more innovation. While developing 5g, we should consider the evolution direction and technology route of the next generation communication technology, and plan and deploy the next generation communication technology 6G in advance. This is also the result of 5g development and the continuation of 5g's future development.
