What are the advantages of developing industry in Hubei Province?

At present, Wuhan's industrial development faces rare historical opportunities and severe challenges. Wuhan needs a scientific vision and strategic thinking, and plans a long-term plan for industrial development with a long-term vision.

The development of industry needs certain conditions and is influenced by various factors, which requires us to re-examine some "advantages" that people used to be accustomed to and complacent in the past with a scientific eye.

The first is location. Under the new macro-policy environment and development environment, Wuhan's location advantage is weakening. From the perspective of opening to the outside world, not only the coastal areas continue to maintain their geographical advantages, but also the southwest has begun to build the ASEAN Free Trade Area and the northeast has begun to plan the Northeast Asia Free Trade Area. From the perspective of domestic regional development, the Yangtze River Delta has become a leader, and the Pearl River Delta is also actively expanding. Driven by the revitalization of the old industrial base in Northeast China, urban agglomerations such as central and southern Liaoning, Chengdu-Chongqing, Fuxia, Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan and Guanzhong are competing for the banner of "the fourth growth pole". Wuhan's location advantage is based on the domestic market, especially the central and western markets. Under the condition of insufficient domestic demand and relatively backward development level in the central and western regions, the gold content of Wuhan's location advantage is not high. However, with the further development of the central and western regions and the further expansion of domestic demand, Wuhan's location advantage will be renewed.

The second is the strength of science and education. From the perspective of empirical analysis, the strength of science and education and economic development do not constitute a causal relationship. Under the condition of market economy, factors of production can flow freely, technology is a commodity, it can be bought and sold, and talents can also flow. Education is only one of many industries, and its driving effect on other industries is limited. From this point of view, to transform Wuhan's scientific and educational advantages into economic advantages, we must create conditions, reduce costs and create a transformation environment.

The third is the industrial base. For more than 20 years, the overall scale of Wuhan's newly developed modern industry does not have the advantages of Wuhan in the 1950s and 1960s, and it cannot support Wuhan to form an industrial advantage in the whole country. The automobile industry, chemical industry, photoelectric industry and tobacco industry, which are being expanded and planned, may form industrial advantages and are the new hope of Wuhan.

The fourth is water resources. As early as the 1990s, the importance of water resources has been concerned and recognized by many strategists in the world, and it is known as the most important resource in 2 1 century, and its importance will surpass that of oil. Under the favorable conditions that the value of water resources has risen sharply, although Wuhan's water resources can establish important advantages for future development, at present, the advantages of water resources have not constituted an important factor of economic development like oil.

The fifth is the economic development environment. From the structural analysis of development, Wuhan is in a relatively backward situation in export-oriented economy, private economy and high-tech industry, which represent the development direction of reform and opening up, and its development starting point is relatively low. The transformation of government functions is not yet in place, the level of public services needs to be improved, the influence of long-term planned economy and the inertia of relying solely on the development of state-owned economy still exist, and it is still difficult and process to shift the strategic focus from state-owned economy to non-state-owned economy. Wuhan's industrial development environment needs to be improved, the support of financial industry and logistics industry is not strong, and the supporting capacity needs to be strengthened. The employment pressure in Wuhan is great, and the social security burden in the old industrial base is heavy. While ensuring local economic and social development, it is difficult for local financial resources to support public functions such as social security and pension. The reform, development and stability of Wuhan not only need to accelerate its own development by intensifying reform and innovation, but also need the strong support of the state and Hubei Province.

China is in the period of industrialization. International and domestic experience shows that the speed of economic development in a certain place in this period mainly depends on the speed of industrial development. On the road of new industrialization, Wuhan has established the development idea of expanding and extending the industrial chain, promoting industrial clusters and building a "modern manufacturing base". It should be said that this thought represents the development direction and mode of modernization. But after calculation, this idea can only guarantee the normal development of Wuhan. Judging from the current situation, Wuhan must embark on an extraordinary development path in order to achieve the task of catching up and surpassing.

The practice of reform and opening up has proved that system reform and system innovation can greatly promote the development of productive forces, and advanced systems are the prerequisite for the leap-forward development of regional economy.

In order to realize the extraordinary and leap-forward development of industry, Wuhan must take the lead in system reform and innovation. First of all, the government functions have changed to public services. The focus of government work should be system reform and innovation, and improve the soft environment for investment. It is necessary to further improve the institutional environment, adhere to the priority of enterprises, resolutely break departmental interests and industry monopoly, conscientiously perform public duties, obey and serve public policies, create a fair market environment for all ownership entities, actively and creatively serve enterprises, continuously improve service levels and performance, and continuously reduce social transaction costs.

Second, establish an independent economic growth mechanism. At present, the key to Wuhan's independent industrial growth lies in the structural defects of the growth motive force and the institutional obstacles of the growth mechanism. In particular, we should be market-oriented, take enterprises as the main body, constantly optimize the development environment, and form an independent economic growth mechanism in which the market mechanism gives full play to the role of optimal allocation of resources, the government innovates the business development environment, and effectively guides and gathers economic activities.

Third, accelerate the development of private industrial enterprises. Adhere to the direction of privatization of state-owned small and medium-sized enterprises and collective enterprises, further promote the withdrawal of state-owned capital from general competitive fields, and liberalize the development of private economy. Establish a private industrial community with industrial characteristics, expand the agglomeration effect of private economy, actively absorb private capital, attract more private manufacturing enterprises to gather in Wuhan, and expand the scale of private economy. The development of private enterprises in Wenzhou embodies the obvious characteristics of regional block economy, which has two advantages. First, the industrial concentration is high, and it is easy to form scale advantages. The annual output value of the low-voltage electrical appliance industry in Liushi Town, Yueqing City, led by Zheng Tai Group and Delixi Group, reached more than 654.38+08 billion, accounting for 40% of the national market. Second, the division of labor is detailed and cooperation is close. Hu Da Lighter Co., Ltd. alone, hundreds of enterprises cooperated with it to process parts, forming a strict production chain. Specialized production not only ensures product quality, but also greatly reduces production costs and operating costs and improves market competitiveness.

Fourth, we must formulate a global development strategy. Encourage, support and guide domestic enterprises with comparative advantages and economic strength, pay attention to the globalization of business strategy, diversification of business objectives, internationalization of financing, globalization of production and marketing, and globalization of technological innovation, expand the strategic adjustment space of industrial structure globally, and cultivate a number of large enterprise groups and multinational companies with global competitiveness.

To realize the extraordinary and leap-forward development of Wuhan's industry, we must highlight the key points and strengthen the position and role of pillar industries in industrial development, especially to develop important industries that occupy a place in the national industrial development pattern. At present, the Wuhan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government has put forward the ideas of "steel cars, tobacco and alcohol, medicine", "five industrial bases", "ten advantageous industries" and "fifteen industrial chains", which embodies the idea of grasping the key points and driving the general. In the process of implementing this concept, we should not only persevere, but also broaden our horizons. Because in the open pattern, the key to revitalize Wuhan's manufacturing industry is to find the position of Wuhan in the global manufacturing coordinates, and then continuously highlight the comparative advantages of Wuhan's manufacturing industry, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, and improve the core competitiveness of advantageous enterprises and the market share of advantageous products.

According to the general law of manufacturing development at home and abroad, in order to form an industrial advantage, a region must have four basic conditions and two auxiliary conditions, namely, related resource advantages, appropriate enterprise organizational structure, strong supporting capacity, humanistic tradition, development opportunities and government support. From the analysis of these six aspects, we can clearly understand the comparative advantage of Wuhan manufacturing industry.

In terms of resources, Hubei and Wuhan are rich in water, energy, grain, cotton, forestry, talents and labor resources, which are conducive to the development of steel and metal smelting, high-tech, textile and clothing, food processing, paper making and other industries. From the perspective of enterprise composition, there are many large enterprises in iron and steel smelting and automobile manufacturing, and the photoelectric industry is expected to produce more large enterprises. Other industries are basically small and medium-sized enterprises, which is conducive to the development of processing industries and urban industries such as iron and steel smelting, automobile manufacturing, photoelectricity and fine clothing. From the perspective of supporting capacity, Wuhan's machinery manufacturing still has a certain foundation, with strong supporting capacity in steel, clothing and other aspects, as well as supporting capacity in optoelectronics, automobiles and textiles. From the perspective of humanistic tradition, steel, machinery, textiles and food are the traditional advantages of Wuhan, automobiles are the traditional advantages of Hubei, and science and technology are the long-term advantages of Wuhan.

From the perspective of development opportunities, China's entry into WTO is conducive to the development of low value-added parts of textile, clothing and steel industries, and the transfer of manufacturing industries in developed countries and regions is conducive to the development of processing industries. The automobile industry is faced with the opportunity for cars to enter the family, but it is also faced with the time pressure in the transition period. From the perspective of government support, the construction of Optics Valley has strongly supported the development of optoelectronic industry, and other industries with advantages have also received different degrees of attention and support.

Generally speaking, iron and steel smelting and textile and clothing in Wuhan have the most comparative advantages, followed by photoelectricity, food processing and automobile manufacturing. Of course, with the adjustment of Wuhan's industrial structure, especially Wuhan's location advantage is particularly attractive to domestic and foreign investment companies seeking China market, and the possibility of global multinational companies building other advantageous industries with huge investment cannot be ruled out. Therefore, while understanding Wuhan's comparative advantages, we should look at the formation and development of key industries dynamically and prospectively according to market demand and industrial development laws, so that domestic and foreign investors have more room for development, and it is easier to form characteristics, and finally form national and even world-class advantageous industries.

To realize the extraordinary and leap-forward development of industry, Wuhan city circle must be regarded as a whole. In terms of industrial layout and division of labor, we will focus on planning and developing three industrial belts: First, taking Donghu High-tech Development Zone as the leader, we will promote industrial clusters such as photoelectric information, steel manufacturing, new materials, bioengineering, new medicine and environmental protection, and build industrial belts such as Huangshi, Ezhou, Huanggang and Xianning; Second, with Wuhan Economic and Technological Development Zone as the leader, promote industrial clusters such as automobile manufacturing, IT equipment, fine chemicals, light food, export processing, and build industrial clusters such as Xiantao, Qianjiang and Tianmen; Third, with the cross-strait science and technology industrial park of Wujiashan as the leader, we will promote industrial clusters such as auto parts, food industry, agricultural product processing, salt and phosphorus chemical industry, and build Xiaogan industrial belt. From the analysis of economic theory, the current economic layout of Wuhan metropolitan area is a typical point-axis development pattern with Wuhan as the core and multi-level gradient development, and objectively there is a gradient development trend driven by point-axis. Therefore, the essence of choosing this leading development model is to choose the road of sustainable development, which includes two meanings: First, it is necessary to further enhance the economic strength and central function of Wuhan, the only mega-central city in Central China, and strive to promote the construction of Wuhan as an international city, so as to further make Wuhan a regional economic center with international influence. Second, while focusing on strengthening the construction of Wuhan's central city, we will focus on strengthening the development of Wuhan, Jianghan Plain, eastern Hubei, Dongting Lake, Poyang Lake and surrounding radiation areas. Breaking through administrative divisions, speeding up the economic integration and linkage development between cities and between cities and surrounding areas according to market rules, so as to realize the integration in spatial form, and the initial construction and final formation of Wuhan urban agglomeration will have a good foundation. While promoting the industrial linkage development, we will actively promote the construction of * * * market, infrastructure and ecological construction of urban circle, and promote the industrial linkage development and sustainable development of urban circle. ※
