Embarrassment


The slow growth rate of the manufacturing becomes the most outstanding shortcoming in Hangzhou's economic development. 


In the old days, manufacturing occupied a decisive position in the economic development of Hangzhou. Nowadays, it has become a disadvantage that constrains the high-quality development of Hangzhou. Behind the sorrow of entrepreneurs is the confusion and entanglement of a larger population: Hangzhou had set its mind to forge the first city of digital economy and its digital economy is developing at full speed, so whether Hangzhou should develop manufacturing in the future? Manufacturing is subject to restraints such as heavy assets, slow return, on environmental protection and land factors. If a central city like Hangzhou puts such industry in a prominent position, will it hinder the development of Hangzhou?


Fortunately, Hangzhou has timely realized these developmental confusions and responded strenuously - on the day of the mobilization meeting, Hangzhou released the "New Manufacturing Plan", making its attitude clear: The manufacturing will keep on developing even in the post-industrialization stage and the digital economy era. The rising proportion of the service industry and the digital economy is naturally evolving with the development of the manufacturing, instead of the manufacturing recession.

Determination


Allowing manufacturing enterprises to enjoy a stage, status and prospect in Hangzhou


All other industries will be difficult to sustain once the manufacturing declines, which is the inexorable law of economic development. After discerning this point, Hangzhou is purely resolute to achieve the turnaround of the manufacturing.


At present, public consultation has been made on the Rules on Implementing the "New Manufacturing Plan" to Promote High-Quality Development" formulated by Hangzhou Government (hereinafter referred to as the "New Manufacturing Plan"), it will then be officially issued after wide absorption of opinions from people and entrepreneurs and further revision and improvement.


Among them, Hangzhou's "New Manufacturing Plan" underlined land supported in view of the reality of insufficient supply of land for manufacturing enterprises.


It boosts the manufacturing enterprises to take the innovation-driven road and tenders 100 million yuan and 15 million yuan subsidy respectively to the certified national and provincial manufacturing innovation centers, from the municipal finance. Furthermore, practical and hardcore measures are made available in terms of talents and finance.


In order to keep close contact with the manufacturing enterprise, Hangzhou Municipal Government has also appointed competent staff from various departments as "government affairs representative" to directly link and serve enterprises.

Test


Local governments shall harbor enough patience and perseverance in developing the manufacturing.


There is no doubt for Hangzhou to develop manufacturing. Yet, what kind of manufacturing should Hangzhou develop shall be answered properly at the current development base point.


The answer of Hangzhou is: the "New Manufacturing Plan" should promote the comprehensive optimization and upgrading of the manufacturing, and make the integration of the new and old, and the continuation of driving force a reality. It should make the "two engines turn together" to realize the high-quality development of digital economy and manufacturing industry, to afford continuous momentum support for the development of Hangzhou.


It is required to choose the right direction and make the pace steady. Manufacturing is not and will never be outdated. We expect that Hangzhou, which has been plugged into the digital economy, will have more superb conditions for manufacturing.
