This year is an important year for my country to implement the "14th Five-Year Plan" development plan and promote the comprehensive construction of a socialist modernized country. It is a key year for the machinery industry to promote transformation and upgrading and accelerate the realization of high-quality development. The current international situation is still complex and severe. my country's economic development is facing triple pressures of demand contraction, supply shocks, and unstable expectations. The industrial economy faces a marked increase in difficulties and challenges, and the downward pressure is increasing. Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "Several Policies on Promoting the Steady Growth of the Industrial Economy" (hereinafter referred to as "Several Policies"), and put forward 18 targeted policies and measures, which are important for the implementation of the central government. The deployment requirements of the Economic Work Conference are of great significance to better promote the stable development of the industrial economy. As the basic strategic industry of our national economy, the machinery industry will be conscientiously implemented.
The manufacturing industry is the lifeline of my country's economy, the foundation of the country and the foundation of a strong country, and the machinery industry, as the "muscle and bone of a big country", is related to the overall stability of the macro economy, national defense construction, national economy and people's livelihood. Since the reform and opening up, my country's machinery industry has made great progress. While providing equipment for economic and social development and national defense construction, the industrial scale and equipment capacity have been continuously enhanced. The economic scale of added value and operating income accounts for 20% of the national industry. Above, its status plays a pivotal role. In 2021, the machinery industry will adhere to the general keynote of seeking progress while maintaining stability, adhere to the complete, accurate and comprehensive implementation of the new development concept, adhere to the supply-side structural reform as the main line, adhere to high-quality development, focus on the advanced industrial foundation and the modernization of the industrial chain, and make every effort to Steady growth, lay a solid foundation, make up for shortcomings, promote upgrades, increase efficiency, maintain a stable and healthy development of the industry, and achieve a good start in the "14th Five-Year Plan". The added value of the machinery industry in the whole year increased by 10% year-on-year, and the growth rate was 0.4 and 0.2 percentage points higher than that of the national industry and manufacturing industry; the operating income was 26 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.6%; the total profit was 1.61 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase. 11.6%; the total import and export volume exceeded the US$1 trillion mark for the first time, achieving a trade surplus of US$314.4 billion, a record high. The steady development of the machinery industry has made important contributions to supporting the stabilization and recovery of the national industrial economy and maintaining the overall social stability. At the same time, affected by multiple internal and external factors, the machinery industry is also facing downward pressure and difficulties such as the slowdown in the growth rate of major economic indicators and weakened investment. It is an arduous task to maintain a stable and healthy development.
As a comprehensive industry organization, the China Machinery Industry Federation will guide the entire industry to earnestly study and implement the Central Economic Work Conference, adhere to the principle of stability and seek progress while maintaining stability, and regard stabilizing growth and maintaining the overall situation as a major political task and the top priority of industry development. Focus on the first place, combined with the implementation of the industry's "14th Five-Year" development plan, actively promote the implementation of "Several Policies", and strive to do a good job in the steady growth of the machinery industry.
First, improve political standing and ideological awareness. Comprehensively and dialectically understand the current economic situation, accurately grasp the essential requirements of the party's basic line of adhering to economic construction as the center, unify ideological understanding with the central government's scientific judgment on the economic situation, focus on the central government's decision-making and deployment, and be firm Confidence and determination, focusing on resolving economic risks, reversing the economic downturn and building a new development pattern, taking practical measures and measures, and unswervingly doing your own thing well.
The second is to strengthen industry monitoring and scheduling. Focusing on the implementation of the tasks of "six stability" and "six guarantees", closely combined with the actual situation of the industry, strengthen research and industrial economic operation monitoring, focusing on hot issues such as energy use, orders, employment, funds, accounts receivable, etc., make timely research and judgments , to promote the implementation of relevant policies. Further strengthen communication with government departments, reflect the demands of enterprises, and put forward policy suggestions. Strengthen the docking and cooperation with upstream and downstream industries, and strengthen coordinated response to outstanding problems affecting the smooth circulation of the industrial chain and supply chain.
The third is to fully implement the industry's "14th Five-Year" development plan. Adhere to the implementation of the industry's "14th Five-Year" development plan as the starting point, continue to promote scientific and technological innovation, strengthen and weak areas, make up for shortcomings, forge long plates, and improve capabilities, and solidly promote the "two industrializations" to achieve practical results and empower stable growth. . Strengthen coordination with various professional fields, and strive to cultivate a group of "specialized and innovative" small and medium-sized enterprises, specialized and innovative "little giant" enterprises and single champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry, and promote the overall improvement of industrial competitiveness. Promote carbon neutrality and digital transformation in an orderly manner, vigorously develop high-end products and advanced equipment, actively explore new markets, and continuously enhance development potential.
The fourth is to insist on promoting a high level of opening to the outside world. Give full play to the advantages of industry associations, strengthen the pre-judgment and early warning of the international epidemic situation and overseas markets, and put forward ideas and measures to consolidate overseas positions and develop new markets under the background of the normalization of the epidemic. Make full use of the "Belt and Road", foreign-built industrial parks, free trade zones and other carriers and service platforms such as international exhibitions and professional forums to strengthen international exchanges and production capacity cooperation, promote two-way trade and investment, and improve the internationalization level of the machinery industry.
On the road to the new exam, the machinery industry will inherit and carry forward the great spirit of building the party, adhere to the goal of high-quality development, uphold the original mission of serving the country through industry, work together, strive for progress, and welcome the party's 20 victories with outstanding achievements of sustainable and stable development. .
