　　 In order to further accelerate the construction of a modern textile industry system, the circulation branch of the China Textile Industry Federation will actively carry out the "Digital Intelligence Fashion Circulation 10000 Miles" activity in the national textile and clothing professional market from 2024. It will visit the national key business districts and leading markets, and carry out research visits, forum exchanges, thematic dialogues, operation diagnosis and other work.

Each piece of cloth builds a city and leads the way of development. From the "water cloth market" shaking the boat, to the bold opening of the "road market", to the construction of a modern "international textile city", Keqiao District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, has been constantly digging into the "cloth", standing at the top of the industry with a piece of cloth, weaving a great industrial dream, fashion dream, and international dream.

As the largest textile distribution center in the world, China Light Textile City deals about a quarter of the world's textiles here every year, and its products are exported to more than 200 countries and regions in the world. In 2023, the total turnover of China Light Textile City will exceed 360 billion yuan, and the foreign trade export of the whole district will exceed 140 billion yuan. It will be honored as one of the top ten foreign trade counties (cities and districts) in Zhejiang Province. Behind the 360 billion yuan and 140 billion yuan is the epitome of Keqiao Textile's courage and innovation.

On April 16, "Digital Intelligence, Fashion and Circulation, Wanli Travel" entered Keqiao, the international textile capital. Xia Lingmin, Secretary General of China Textile Industry Federation, Wang Shuiyuan, Vice President and Secretary General of China Textile Industry Federation Circulation Branch The delegation went deep into China's light textile city market for investigation and research, and visited Zhejiang Modern Textile Technology Innovation Center (Jianhu Laboratory), Zhejiang Jinsheng Textile Co., Ltd., and Zhejiang Dashu Textile Technology Co., Ltd. to understand the development status of Keqiao textile industry enterprises in detail, and put forward targeted suggestions around building a modern textile industry system and cultivating new quality productivity.

Market upgrading, optimizing business types and strengthening development advantages

"Looking back on the past, we can accumulate strength and look forward to the future. Over the past 30 years, China Light Textile City has undergone earth shaking changes and written a legend of a hundred billion level textile industry cluster. In the future, we hope that China Light Textile City will continue to play a leading role and create new brilliance in industrial development." Xia Lingmin sent this feeling after visiting the exhibition center of China Textile City.

Looking back on the development process of more than 30 years, China Textile City has made a solid footprint step by step, engraved with the traces of the concerted efforts of the government and enterprises of the textile city, recorded the glory of market innovation and continuous transformation, and witnessed the glory of Keqiao Textile in riding the wind and waves and going to the world. according to Qi Jintong, member of the Party Working Committee of China Textile City and deputy director of the Textile City Construction and Management Committee According to the introduction, China Textile City now covers an area of 3.9 million square meters, operates more than 50000 varieties, operates more than 37000 households, and has a daily market passenger flow of 100000 person times. The market turnover has ranked first in the national textile professional market for more than 30 consecutive years. At present, Keqiao Textile City is actively focusing on the three advantages of "market+industry+scientific innovation", making every effort to build "five centers" in the textile field, and accelerating the construction of a more modern, more open, more fashionable and more competitive "international textile city".

"Where was the printing of this fabric processed? How about the downstream application and feedback of the national style fabric of China Textile City?" During the investigation of the Hanfu fabric cluster area in the joint market of China Textile City, the research team had a deep understanding of the production and operation of such enterprises. With the rise of the "new national trend", the styles of horse face skirt, Han style clothes made in Tang and Song dynasties, and new Chinese style are gradually known, which directly "ignites" the fabric market in the upstream of the textile industry chain. Since last year, the East Market Branch of Zhejiang China Light Textile City Co., Ltd. has opened a cluster area of Hanfu fabrics in the first and second channels of the joint market in order to explore and cultivate small varieties of fabrics in the market. In addition to traditional Hanfu fabrics, it also includes new Chinese style fabrics with national style.

Coming out from the north gate of the United Market, the research team and their party walked along the canal to feel the characteristics of the "Water, Charm and Textile City". Shuiyun Textile Metropolis Featured Industrial Landscape Model Area takes the two major elements of "International Textile Center+Jiangnan Water Town" as the resource characteristics, focuses on the three construction goals of "global light textile innovation engine, new Jiangnan poetic urban model, and charming life city center", and takes the path of creating a high point, shaping the center, and prospering the landscape to build the light textile city into a model of market transformation and upgrading in the new economic era, Realize the "whole area promotion, whole area beauty and system remodeling" of the light textile city field area. In 2023, the project of Shuiyun Textile City Featured Industrial Landscape Area officially passed the provincial acceptance, drawing a new era "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" full of "Keqiao charm".

Walking on the first floor of the East Market, the research team learned about the market's operating characteristics and categories, and found that each enterprise has its own characteristics, and mass innovation has become a normal. It is understood that the market in the east of China's Light and Textile City has always focused on stimulating the vitality of market players, improving the independent innovation ability of business operators through optimizing business environment and market service guidance, and enhancing new development momentum. Next, the East Market will further optimize the market format, take the lead in cultivating flagship stores for high-end women's clothing fabrics, and create a new highland for fabric brands.

Platform enabling and multi-party cooperation to build an innovation engine

From fiber to yarn, from research and development to design, from fabric to clothing, you can imagine that every piece of clothing you wear has gone through layers of quenching and hard won. It is hard for you to imagine what invisible vast universe can be hidden in a piece of silk and a piece of cloth through technological innovation.

Entering the Modern Textile Technology Innovation Center (Jianhu Laboratory), the research team saw Keqiao Textile's innovative practice of actively promoting the integrated development of industry, university and research. The Modern Textile Technology Innovation Center starts from the source fiber end, and sets up high-end fiber materials and low-carbon preparation teams to study advanced fiber materials preparation technology; Set up a team in the intermediate printing and dyeing link to specialize in ecological dyeing and finishing technology; In the field of intelligent manufacturing, set up a team to study textile intelligent manufacturing and advanced composite materials; In the future textile field, set up a digital fashion team to study the future textile technology and development direction... enable the enterprise to develop in an all-round way from the aspects of technological innovation, achievement transformation, talent training, etc.

From automotive interiors to aerospace, from energy conservation and environmental protection to biomedicine, from daily wear to the Olympic stadium... It can be found in the Modern Textile Technology Innovation Center that a piece of silk, a piece of cloth, and the power of science and technology can go to heaven and earth. In the exhibition hall of the center, the relevant responsible person introduced the overall situation of the center's goal positioning, strategic tasks, institutional mechanisms, organizational structure, talent team, capital investment, phase II planning, landmark achievements, etc. to the research team, focusing on the focus of the main direction, the layout of major tasks, technological innovation, transformation of scientific and technological achievements, etc, He expressed that it is necessary to deeply connect with Keqiao's textile demand, constantly strengthen innovation drive, produce more landmark achievements, promote the transformation and upgrading of the textile industry, and empower local economic and industrial development.

In order to strengthen the innovation chain, in recent years, Keqiao has made great efforts to build a public service platform for scientific and technological innovation, taking the innovation platform as the traction, giving play to the advantages of "hub", deepening the cooperation between schools and enterprises, gathering innovation elements, stimulating regional innovation impetus, enhancing enterprise innovation ability, and successfully creating a modern textile technology innovation center (Jianhu Laboratory), a modern textile industry innovation service complex Gather high-end innovation platforms such as the Printing and Dyeing Engineer Collaborative Innovation Center, do a solid job in "talent+platform+industry", and create an innovation engine for upgrading the traditional manufacturing industry.

For the development and construction of the center, Xia Lingmin put forward two suggestions: first, emancipate the mind, change the development mode, strengthen the dominant position of enterprises, let enterprises really participate in, and promote the implementation and transformation of more scientific and technological achievements; The second is to promote market-oriented management, let all parties' capital participate in, let R&D innovation better close to the market, and form new quality productivity through a virtuous circle, thus bringing better economic benefits.

Enterprises make efforts to promote top-level design to take root

Relying on the deep industrial foundation, perfect system advantages and continuous innovation ability, Keqiao Textile City has become a leader in high-quality development of the industry and a pioneer in the construction of modern textile industrial system. When high-quality development meets new quality productivity, how can top-level design take root and how can a beautiful blueprint be transformed into a "real picture"? Xia Lingmin believes that it is necessary to mobilize the power of enterprises, support enterprises to improve their innovation ability and stimulate endogenous power.

When I came to Zhejiang Jinsheng Textile Co., Ltd., the first thing I saw was the industrial park covering an area of 40 mu. according to Chairman Jin Huangen According to introduction, the park will be completed in 2022, including the operation administration building, quality inspection and storage center, production center, staff living area and other multiple functions. Led by Jin Huangen, the research team visited the newly built functional integration exhibition hall of Jinsheng Textile, in which the bamboo fiber atmosphere exhibition area introduced the company's material integration series and the company's product bamboo image totem; The domestic exhibition area displays fabrics and ready-made clothes according to the quarterly trend release, and the round platform area has built the company's bamboo fiber product library to display bamboo fiber series products.

"Bamboo fiber is the representative of Chinese culture, Chinese elements and Chinese original fiber. It originates from nature and is naturally biodegradable, bringing consumers a more comfortable wearing experience and opening up a new direction for the sustainable development of the textile industry. As the development base of bamboo pulp fiber blended functional fabric products awarded by China Textile Federation, we hope Jinsheng Textile will make persistent efforts to develop more practical new fabrics guided by the market, and expand the application space of bamboo fiber fabrics through collaborative innovation in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, so as to enhance the global market share and popularity. " Xia Lingmin raised ardent expectations for Jinsheng Textile.

In Zhejiang Dashu Textile Technology Co., Ltd, Yuan Xiaowen, member of the Standing Committee of Keqiao District Party Committee and secretary of the Party Working Committee of China Textile City Accompanied the research team to have a deep understanding of the company's development origin and the process of inheritance and innovation. according to Shao Lingbin, General Manager of the Company Introduction: Dashu Textile integrates fabric research and development, production, sales, supply chain management, and fabric garment planning, links the world's top fiber manufacturers, focuses on sustainable fashion fabrics, and serves the global market digitally. Focusing on the needs of different countries and brands, the company has created five series of fabrics, namely acetic acid, extreme natural, light natural, new synthetic fiber and original printing, with strong R&D and innovation capabilities and industrial chain collaboration capabilities.

Xia Lingmin said that through this visit to Keqiao, he saw the positive attitude of the Keqiao government to spare no effort to support the high-quality development of the local textile industry, and saw the practical action of China's textile city market to constantly create a good business environment and accelerate the construction of a modern new professional market, We also saw the textile feelings of the older generation of entrepreneurs and the innovative spirit of young entrepreneurs. Keqiao Textile City promotes industrial upgrading with scientific and technological innovation, digital empowerment, fashion creativity and green development, laying a solid industrial foundation for building a modern textile industrial system and cultivating new quality productivity.
