China's Minister of Industry and Information Technology Jin Zhuanglong accelerate the planning and layout of quantum technology and other future industries

In 2023, how to promote stable industrial growth? How to enhance the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry? Minister of Industry and Information Technology Jin Zhuanglong was interviewed by Xinhua News Agency recently.

When asked what specific measures the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will take to accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system, the Minister said.

The key to building a modern industrial system is in revitalizing the manufacturing industry. We will forge the long board, fill the short board, strengthen the foundation, comprehensively improve the level of modernization of the industrial system, focusing on five areas of work.

First, to improve the ability of key industrial chains independently controllable. Identify the key core technologies and components weak links, in-depth implementation of the key core technology research project, improve the "unveiling of the list to hang" and other market-oriented mechanisms, solidly carry out the chain of strong and stable chain of action, concentrating high-quality resources and joint efforts to tackle the problem.

The second is to promote the rebuilding of industrial base. Focus on the core basic components, core basic components, key basic materials, key basic software, advanced basic processes and industrial technology base, vigorously implement the industrial base rebuilding project, the layout of a number of industrial base common technology center in key areas, and then cultivate a number of national manufacturing innovation center, and actively play the role of key laboratories, and strive to breakthrough a number of key urgent basic products.

Third, consolidate the leading position of advantageous industries. Accelerate the construction of new infrastructure such as 5G, deepen the integration of "5G + industrial Internet" applications, and promote the research and development of 6G technology. Strengthen the new energy automobile industry, enhance the competitiveness of the photovoltaic industry, and promote the high-quality development of the shipbuilding industry.

Fourth, pay close attention to the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Cultivate a number of leading enterprises with resource control and international competitiveness, vigorously promote the technological transformation of enterprises and equipment renewal, in-depth implementation of intelligent manufacturing projects, the full implementation of green manufacturing, forging new industrial competitive advantage.

Fifth, accelerate the cultivation and growth of new industries. Accelerate the innovation and development of strategic emerging industries such as artificial intelligence, bio-manufacturing, Internet of Things, etc., implement special actions for the development of advanced manufacturing clusters, study and formulate action plans for the development of future industries, and accelerate the planning and layout of future industries such as humanoid robots, meta-universe and quantum technology.
