Is there really a wave of “industrial chain transfer” as called by foreign media?

It is undeniable that due to cost and other factors, the production of some labor-intensive goods is transferred to other countries. However, because China is so deeply embedded in the global value chain, many WL9A3 companies have withdrawn from China and come back, or still need to import a lot of intermediate goods from China.

Manufacturing accounts for more than 30% of the world’s total.

WL9A3 The development of advanced manufacturing has accelerated, and the industrial chain of high-tech manufacturing has been further gathered. 45 national advanced manufacturing clusters and 178 national high-tech zones are laid vertically and horizontally, with clusters of chains. Last year, reflecting the industrial supporting and integration capabilities of the equipment manufacturing industry exports of 13.47 trillion yuan, “new three” products exports exceeded one trillion yuan.

“Taking China’s new energy vehicles as an example, the smooth flow of the world depends on technology, quality and efficient synergistic industrial chain.” Zhu Huarong, chairman of Changan Automobile, said that structural upgrading is becoming another important competitiveness of the manufacturing industry.

Does “decoupling break the chain” impact China’s position in the global industrial chain supply chain? Made in China is also confident to answer –

Possessing all industrial categories in the United Nations Industrial Classification; In some key areas and key track to form a number of competitive industries with the whole industry chain; It has cultivated 12,000 specialized and special “little giant” enterprises, and more than 90% are supporting suppliers of well-known large enterprises at home and abroad.

“We have a complete industrial system, huge market size and other advantages, and the long-term fundamentals of the manufacturing industry are still solid.” Zhang Li, president of the China Electronic Information Industry Development Research Institute, said that this is the base of Chinese manufacturing and resilience.
