What changes will the new industrial revolution bring? What challenges and opportunities does it bring to China's manufacturing industry

A new industrial revolution is beginning. This industrial revolution refers to the microelectronics technology, biotechnology, new artificial material technology, communications, computer technology and automated machinery technology and other six major scientific and technological development and interaction, the formation of the manufacturing industry as the core of intelligence, built on the basis of the new network and new energy, new materials, the combination of the ongoing industrial revolution. It will make the global allocation of factors, mode of production, organizational model and people's way of life, a revolutionary transformation.

The new round of economic change, will intensify the regional economic differentiation, seize the opportunity of the countries and regions, will be among the forefront of development, lose the opportunity may be rivals far down. Zhejiang as China's first step into the industrialization of the developed provinces, industrial development of resource elements of the environment tends to deteriorate, the manufacturing industry is facing a lot of difficulties, the traditional industries continue to move out, the rate of economic growth tends to decline. If we can not seize the opportunity, Zhejiang economy will be worse.

Enhancement of independent technological innovation capacity, accelerate industrial transformation and upgrading, is undoubtedly China's response to the challenges of the third industrial revolution is an important choice. Needless to say, although our country has become the world's industrial power, but the industrial big but not strong, the development mode of sloppy, structural level is low. Therefore, accelerate the upgrading of the industrial structure and the transformation of the development mode is no time to wait.

The first and foremost is to enhance China's industrial technology innovation capacity, take the road of independent technological innovation. Technological change has always been the core driving force of the industrial revolution. Tracing back to the roots of China's industrial big but not strong, the key crux is the ability to independent innovation is not strong, the core technology is restricted. For example, at present, China's high-end chips and general-purpose chip foreign dependence of more than 95%, the basic circuit technology lags behind developed countries by about 5 years. How to break through a number of "neck" of the core key technologies, as soon as possible to enhance industrial technology innovation capacity, is currently China's response to the third industrial revolution facing the biggest hurdle. To overcome this challenge, we must implement the innovation-driven development strategy, and play a key role in industrial transformation and upgrading of innovation. To strengthen the top-level design and overall planning of technological innovation, forward-looking deployment of information networks, new energy, new materials, biological and other key areas of major technological research and development, focusing on a number of key core technologies, support for industry-oriented basic **** technology to promote the application of innovation-driven development of new momentum. In particular, we should work on the system design, pay attention to guiding innovation factors to enterprises to gather, enhance the ability of enterprises to globalize the allocation of innovation resources, improve the construction of innovation system with enterprises as the main body, and create a system and mechanism conducive to the development of industrial innovation.

Secondly, it is necessary to accelerate the pace of new energy technology development, promote changes in the utilization of energy resources, and promote green and low-carbon industrial development. The deep development of the third industrial revolution will promote the large-scale application and intelligent supply of new energy sources such as wind and solar energy, and green, low-carbon and intelligent become an important feature of the new mode of production. China is still in the stage of rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, and the trend of massive and rapid consumption of material resources is difficult to reverse in the short term. According to the World Bank report, the cost of China's environmental degradation and other costs over the past decade has been close to 10% of GDP. These problems urgently require China to promote a profound change in the way energy resources are utilized, and substantially improve the efficiency of energy resource utilization. Accelerating industrial transformation and upgrading must take cracking the energy resource constraints and easing the pressure on the ecological environment as the starting point, and actively utilize clean and renewable energy sources such as wind energy, solar energy and nuclear energy, promote key energy-saving technologies, equipment and products, implement cleaner production and pollution control, intensify the comprehensive utilization of resources, strengthen the research, development and application of low-carbon technologies, and gradually cut down on pollutant emissions from key industries. At the same time, it is necessary to improve the appraisal system of leading cadres and the exit mechanism of outdated production capacity, improve the incentive and constraint mechanism, strengthen the coordination of all kinds of policies, guide the leading cadres and enterprises at all levels to truly implement the concept of scientific development into green development, recycling development and low-carbon development, accelerate the formation of a low-consumption, recyclable, low-emission and sustainable industrial structure and consumption pattern, and promote the coordination of industrial civilization with ecological civilization, so as to accelerate the construction of a beautiful China. The third is to promote the coordinated development of industrial civilization and ecological civilization, and to accelerate the construction of a beautiful China.

Thirdly, we should take intelligent technology development as the driving force, promote the deep integration of industrialization and informatization, and strive to improve the level of industrial intelligence. The core connotation of the third industrial revolution is information technology innovation, and the main feature is intelligent manufacturing methods. Specifically, the accelerated integration of informatization and industrialization has promoted the development of production system intelligence, industrial organization networking and personalization of processing and manufacturing. The entire production process of the future intelligent industry will be composed of new sensors, intelligent control systems, robots, automated complete sets of production lines, and its manufacturing system will be transformed from the energy-driven type in the past to the modern information-driven type. The intelligent development of manufacturing coincides with the direction of China's promotion of the deep integration of informationization and industrialization. For a long time, China's manufacturing industry has been in the low-end link of the international industrial value chain because of its low technological content. Although the degree of informatization of key industrial sectors has been gradually improved under the active promotion of the relevant departments in recent years, the level of digitalization of the manufacturing industry in general is still not high. At this stage, China should seize the opportunity of the third industrial revolution to follow the trend, to promote the "two" deep integration as a hand, and vigorously promote the transformation of traditional industry to intelligent industry. On the one hand, China's industrial development should be based on the development and application of advanced information technology, deepen the application of information technology in enterprise R & D and design, manufacturing, management, marketing and other aspects of the application, improve the level of manufacturing digital, network and intelligent; on the other hand, we should pay great attention to the manufacturing industry, digital technology, products, equipment, R & D and industrialization, for the "two". On the other hand, we should pay great attention to the research and development and industrialization of manufacturing digital technology, products and equipment, and provide industrial support for the deep integration of "two-chemical".

Fourth, we should take the initiative to adapt to the changes in the mode of production, and promote the process of manufacturing services around the enhancement of product value-added. The third industrial revolution will also accelerate the process of manufacturing services. Manufacturing servitization is a new manufacturing model and production organization, which strengthens its competitive advantage by continuously strengthening customer-oriented personalized R&D and design, consulting and planning, financial support, supply chain management, online monitoring and maintenance, and other businesses, and building a flexible production mode. For example, Rolls-Royce, the world's largest manufacturer of aircraft engines and gasoline turbines, has established a business model of charging fees based on flight time by making online remote diagnostic services a core component of product service contracts, and service revenue now accounts for 50% of its total revenue. Promote the servitization of manufacturing industry, promote the industrial model from product manufacturing as the core, to the products, services and overall solutions and change, will not only change China's manufacturing industry's rough development mode, will also be conducive to the economic development to more rely on the service industry, especially the modern service industry up. At present, to promote the focus of manufacturing services: around the enhancement of product features, the development of industrial design, online maintenance and service business; around the enhancement of transaction efficiency, the development of financial leasing, modern logistics and e-commerce services; around the improvement of production line operation efficiency, the development of total integration, general contracting services; to promote the service from the product-oriented services to the demand-oriented services, and the development of the industry integrated solutions business.

Finally, we should accelerate the transformation of government functions, vigorously promote institutional innovation and management change, and strive to transform technological innovation into real productivity. The third industrial revolution brought the traditional centralized, large-scale, homogeneous production to decentralized, small batch, personalized manufacturing change, this new trend on the traditional way of government behavior has brought a huge impact on the urgent need to clarify the boundaries between the government and the market, accelerate the transformation of government functions. For a long time, China's government and the market relationship has not been completely straightened out, there are still too much direct intervention in microeconomic activities, the lack of fair market competition, the investment and financing system reform lags behind, the government's performance of the management of light services and other issues, inhibiting the innovation of individuals and enterprises and their transformation into real productivity. As the third industrial revolution draws nearer and nearer, China should aim to stimulate innovative vitality, actively adapt to the development trend of new industries and new markets characterized by individualization and diversification, make great efforts to promote substantial progress in the transformation of government functions, gradually move from a management-oriented government to a service-oriented government, and solve the long-standing problems of overstepping, mismanagement, and lack of position. Overall, in the market economy, the main functions of the government should be changed to macroeconomic regulation and control, the formulation of fair competition rules, systems and policies to create an environment, on the one hand, to deepen the reform of the large departmental system, and constantly innovate the way the government manages, and strive to improve the effectiveness of the government's management, and accelerate the construction of the rule of law government; on the other hand, we should optimize the government's organizational structure, and strengthen the construction of public **** service system, and strive to provide convenient, fast, high-quality service for the development of industry. Industrial development to provide convenient, fast, high-quality, efficient public **** services, to deal with the challenges of the third industrial revolution to provide a strong institutional mechanism to protect.
