"Unleashing the Potential of Digital Economy for High-Quality Development in Shanxi

However, Shanxi to focus on promoting the construction of "digital Shanxi", still facing many difficulties and challenges, at the same time, compared with other sister provinces in central China, there is also a certain gap. In grasping the "four for four high two synchronization" on the basis of the overall requirements, clarify the current development status of digital economy in Shanxi, clarify the problems and short boards in the development of digital economy, explore the digital economy to promote the development of high-quality countermeasures in Shanxi, Shanxi is to seek a new path of transformation and development of new ideas.

First, the basic status quo of the development of digital economy in Shanxi province

First, the infrastructure construction is constantly improving.In 2018, the total length of fiber-optic cable lines in Shanxi province reached 1.208 million kilometers, and the Internet inter-provincial export bandwidth has also realized a significant expansion, with a growth rate of 38.4%, ranking 11th in the country. In terms of broadband network service capacity, mobile fiber optic users accounted for 97.5%, with the penetration rate ranking first in the country, achieving a double rise in mobile broadband network coverage capacity and quality. At the same time, the province and network facilities related to investment also showed exponential growth trend. Only in the first half of 2020, the province's investment in information service industry increased by 1.2 times, of which investment in the Internet and related services increased by 13.9%.

Second, the level of digital industrialization to a new level. In Shanxi provincial government planning, Huawei, Baidu, CEC, China Electronics, Alibaba and a number of domestic and foreign enjoy a high reputation of leading enterprises have settled in Shanxi, the Great Wall of China, Dawning, Longxin and other electronic information manufacturing enterprises to grow gradually, the local Baxin, the cloud era and other leading enterprises to flourish, the digital industry in Shanxi from scratch, from the point of view, and gradually into a network of expanding trend. The digital industry in Shanxi has shown an expanding trend from scratch, from point to surface, and gradually become a network. At present, the digital industry in our province has initially formed a digital industry chain pattern led by core leading enterprises, namely, chip makers with Longxin and Kunpeng as the core of research and development, operating system makers with Unicom and CIBS Kirin as the main ones, machine makers with Baxin and China Great Wall as the main ones, supercomputer makers with Guoke-Jinyun as the main ones, as well as Neusoft, Taiji, Yongzhong, Kingdee Tianyan and Donghua Software attracted by Cloud Era as a platform, and more than 40 partners***. More than 40 partners **** with the participation of the digital industry ecological chain, the formation of a echelon, level of digital industry development clusters.

Third, the speed of digital industry integration is accelerating. In terms of intelligent manufacturing industry, Shanxi Province since 2015 has successively CLP II, Fusheng Aluminum, Danyun Automobile, TISCO stainless steel, Zhiqi Railway, Kodak Automatic and other emerging intelligent manufacturing enterprises to become the national intelligent manufacturing demonstration enterprises. In order to realize the early development of traditional industries in high-quality transformation, Shanxi will be digital technology and energy industry for organic combination. In the construction of intelligent coal mines, Shanxi applies advanced algorithms and digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud computing, 5G, etc. to the safe production and operation management of coal mines, creating different types and modes of intelligent coal mines.

Fourth, the new industry and new mode show a benign development trend. the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic in early 2020 brought the nation's economic construction to a standstill for a while. But the digital economy in the epidemic spawned new business, new models for Shanxi high-quality transformation and development provides a new direction. For example, in terms of online medical care, in the first quarter of 2020, the Internet medical platform in Shanxi province realized a turnover of 510 million yuan, up 148.9% year-on-year; in terms of online consumption, the province's tobacco, alcohol and beverage commodities trading platform turnover increased by 9.5% year-on-year, and the local supermarket's online commodities turnover exceeded 380 million yuan, up 76.4% year-on-year. In addition to online health care, online consumption and other new business, live with goods has also become a new business model in Shanxi new highlights. 2020 1-6 months, Linfen City, the use of county commissioners, county party secretaries live with the way to promote local specialty products, online merchandise turnover of more than 30 million yuan; Yuncheng City, and Pinduoduo reached a cooperation intention to carry out agricultural products on the line broadcasting activities, this "brand agricultural specialty products", "brand agricultural specialty products", "brand agricultural specialty products", "brand agricultural specialty products", "brand agricultural specialty products" and "brand agricultural specialty products". This new model of "branded agricultural products direct broadcast" business circulation, effectively boosting the province's rapid growth in online retail sales.

Fifth, the digital economy business environment continues to improve. In recent years, the Shanxi provincial party committee attaches great importance to the improvement of the business environment, and clearly pointed out that we should make every effort to create the "six most" business environment. Against the "six" standard, the Shanxi Provincial Government to promote in-depth "put in place service efficiency" reform, benchmarking the central and advanced regional practices, the full liberalization of the enterprise investment project commitment system reform pilot, docking international trade and investment in the latest rules, deepen the reform of the business system The reform of the business system has compressed the approval matters and time for enterprises to do business, broken down market access barriers, transformed government functions, improved administrative efficiency, and promoted the continued improvement of the business environment in the province. As of December 2019, Shanxi has completed 1,202 pilot projects for the reform of the commitment system for enterprise investment projects, saving 50% of the time from the declaration to the landing of the project. Meanwhile, Shanxi has also carried out facilitation reforms in approval services, compressing the processing time for enterprises to five working days on the basis of benchmarking the completion of the State Council's 8.5 working days. According to the feedback results of the fifth supervision of the State Council, Shanxi has made significant progress in six of the seven important indicators in the business environment evaluation index measurement in 2018.

Second, the current problems and gaps in the development of digital economy in Shanxi province

In 2020, the average level of China's digital economy development index is 29.6. The basic pattern of China's digital economy development shows the location characteristics of strong south and weak north, and regional aggregation. The digital economy of Shanxi Province is classified as a development stage and ranked 22nd in the national digital economy development index.

First, a comparative analysis of the digital infrastructure index. 2020 national average of the digital infrastructure index is 31.3, the six central provinces of the digital infrastructure situation performance is more balanced. Among them, Henan Province has the highest digital infrastructure index of 40.5, ranking in the first tier in the national rankings; Shanxi has the lowest digital infrastructure score of 27.1. The gap between the highest and lowest scores is not large, indicating that the digital infrastructure of the six central provinces has small internal differences, providing good support for the development of the information industry, the software service industry, and other related industries. Therefore, Shanxi should continue to make sustained efforts in the construction of new digital infrastructure, and plan for 5G, data industry centers, etc. as the focus of the construction of new digital facilities, so as to lay a good foundation for the sustainable development of the digital economy.

The second is a comparative analysis of the digital industry development index. The average score of the national digital industry development index is 24.6, and among the six central provinces, Hubei Province has the highest maturity of digital economy industry development, and Shanxi is the worst. Among them, the standard deviation of the industry scale in Shanxi Province is larger than the standard deviation of the main body of the digital industry, indicating a relatively large gap between the quality and quantity of enterprises. Meanwhile, the average value of the industrial development index of Shanxi Province is overall low compared with the other five provinces, indicating that Shanxi Province lags behind in terms of industrial scale as a whole. In the cultivation of industrial subjects, affected by the number of dominant unicorn enterprises and listed enterprises, Shanxi has not yet cultivated digital enterprises with industry influence, so the score of this sub-indicator is extremely low, which also indicates that the six central provinces are more obviously differentiated in terms of industrialization.

Third, the comparative analysis of the digital convergence industry development index. From the point of view of the score of the six provinces in central China, in addition to the current score of Shanxi Province is lower than the average score, the other provinces of the digital convergence index score are more than or the same as the average score. In industrial digitization, Shanxi Province is slightly behind, and the other five provinces have a more balanced level; in the field of digital R&D and design and enterprise digital collaboration, Shanxi Province has a lower score, and Henan and Anhui Province lead the central region, indicating that most of the exemplary enterprises of industrial digitization are clustered here, and that Shanxi's digital transformation of enterprises has a long way to go. In the area of rural digitization, Taobao villages in central provinces are building rapidly, and Taobao villages in Shanxi province have achieved zero breakthroughs, and the potential of rural e-commerce is gradually gaining momentum.

Fourth, the comparative analysis of the digital economy development environment index. From the overall development situation, the six central provinces of the digital economy development environment differences are relatively small, in spite of this, Shanxi Province's digital economy development environment is still ranked at the bottom. In the field of subdivided indicators, Shanxi province's government network service level performance is relatively excellent, which is closely related to the continuous implementation of the national policy of "Internet + government services"; in terms of the indicators of the interactive terminal of government services, there is a certain gap between Shanxi and other provinces, indicating that Shanxi will need to continue the construction of interactive terminals of government services in the future, management and business optimization. It should not be overlooked that in terms of government data governance, Shanxi Province has the lowest score, indicating that the province's data governance services are still in their infancy, and that the systematic measures and policies for data governance have not been followed up in a timely manner, with a very limited social impact.

Three countermeasures for the future development of the digital economy in Shanxi Province

First, speed up the construction of new infrastructure, and do a good job of the key support for the development of the digital economy. With the comprehensive promotion of artificial intelligence, intelligent manufacturing and other digital industries, the objective requirements of 5G, industrial Internet of Things, data centers and other new digital infrastructure construction to accelerate the pace. In this regard, Shanxi should strengthen the planning and layout of new infrastructure, further improve the construction of new network infrastructure, vigorously promote the comprehensive coverage of 5G and other related network facilities in urban and rural areas, continue to promote the expansion and optimization of the backbone network, the network structure link, enhance the carrying capacity of the provincial export bandwidth and the expansion of the strength of the provincial fiber optic cable transmission network level, and actively promote the in-depth development of triple play network convergence. Accelerate the creation of industrial Internet platform, ahead of the layout of the next generation of new Internet, accelerate the comprehensive upgrading to the new version of IPv6, enhance the capacity of digital business dredging and business carrying capacity, lay the foundation for the development of the digital economy, and do a good job of the underlying support.

Secondly, we will accelerate the research of key core technologies and cultivate a new ecosystem for the digital economy. Further increase the investment in technology research and development for different types of enterprises, and flexibly adopt a variety of ways to achieve breakthroughs in core key technologies. On the one hand, we can use joint research, mergers and acquisitions or industrial cooperation to accelerate the attack on semiconductors, core software and high-end chips; on the other hand, we can vigorously promote the improvement of the industry-academia-research system and accelerate the exploration of deep-water areas of cutting-edge technologies such as AI, blockchain, digital twins, etc., and strive to build an internationally advanced, safe and controllable technology system for digital transformation. Led by the "energy revolution", Shanxi should further focus on the energy Internet, intelligent digital mine construction and other fields to create a large-scale digital industrial innovation system. In addition, Shanxi should further focus on the local growth of good, big potential, the development of the foundation and characteristics of the business of the invisible champion, unicorn potential enterprises, the establishment of advantageous enterprises dynamic cultivation library, the formation of unicorn enterprises in the orderly training echelon, to provide accurate and effective policy support.

Third, to enhance the level of digital industrial integration, expand the scale of digital business development. In the field of industrial digitalization, Shanxi should y promote the fusion of two chemistries, carry out in-depth transformation of traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing, promote the comprehensive coverage of new intelligent sites such as intelligent factories, digital workshops, intelligent steel mills and other new intelligent sites in the province's industrial manufacturing enterprises, accelerate the introduction of intelligent production lines, realize the networked and intelligent upgrading of the production line, and actively build an industrial Internet platform to promote the synergy of the industrial industry chain's resources operation and cooperation **** enjoy. In the transformation of the energy industry, Shanxi, on the basis of summarizing the experience of the commissioning and use of the underground 5G coal mine private network of Yang Coal Group's Xinyuan Mine, should accelerate the promotion of the use of intelligent mines, intelligent official websites, intelligent power grids and other intelligent sites, and improve the intelligent manipulation capacity of mining enterprises; in the field of agricultural digitization, it is necessary to comprehensively promote the cooperation with well-known network platforms to open up the access of Shanxi's agricultural products in the area of sales channels, and to promote the The digital transformation of Shanxi's agriculture. In the field of service digitization, Shanxi should continue to increase the construction and promotion of smart tourism and other new forms and new modes, encourage the transformation of offline outlets of different industries into integrated intelligent service outlets, actively innovate new modes of service industry, enhance the application experience of consumers, and expand the new realm of digital services.

Fourth, efforts to optimize the digital business environment and create a new atmosphere for the development of the digital economy. First of all, to the rapid development of the digital economy in our province in the field of in-depth research, standardize the business qualification of the relevant licensing matters, the implementation of access matters of the negative list system, smooth government government office platforms, the development of offline business and online business classification of the different standards for processing. Secondly, we should implement flexible supervision for the new forms and modes emerging in the development of the digital economy. Different forms of business have different business risks at different stages of development, and the supervisory authorities should be keen to identify and make accurate judgments. Once again, we should accelerate the construction of "digital government", based on the use of advanced digital technology, further optimize the level of government services in our province, improve the government's response speed; at the same time, we should further explore the openness of government data **** enjoyment, supervision and maintenance, to provide more convenient services to the public in a wider range. Finally, the government should make efforts to guide all members of the society to recognize, understand and attach importance to the digital economy, to form a good social atmosphere that encourages and protects innovation, and to promote the construction of the innovation ecosystem of the digital economy.
