Grasp the key points and forge ahead in the new journey of the cluster
Chairman of China Textile and Apparel Federation Sun Ruizhe
December 8, 2022
Dear leaders and colleagues:
good afternoon everyone!
The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China opened a new chapter in China’s modernization drive. As an important component of the real economy and people’s livelihood industry, the textile industry has great potential. Cluster economy is the most distinctive feature and most important form of the textile industry. As of 2021, the textile industry cluster pilot program linked to the China Textile Federation has gathered 253,000 industry enterprises. Among them, there are 14,500 enterprises above designated size, accounting for about 42.7% of the entire industry, and their operating income, profits, and number of employees account for half of the enterprises above designated size in the industry. Doing a good job in industrial cluster work is related to the highquality development of the industry, the realization of a better life for the people, and the advancement of the goal of common prosperity. It is a key focus for the industry to integrate into the Chinese-style modernization process. . Today, we carry forward the past and open up the future, and jointly discuss the development of textile industry clusters, which has practical value and strategic significance.
Industrial clusters have always been an important ecosystem that supports the transformation and upgrading of the industry. The agglomeration of space, the intensification of costs, the collaboration of industries, the spillover of knowledge, industrial clusters continue to transform scale advantages into quality advantages and system advantages in the competition and cooperation of enterprises. From small to large, from single to diversified, clusters are an important force in promoting the formation of a “grass, shrubs, and trees” ecosystem and the integration of large, medium and small. They are an important force in promoting the coordinated evolution of manufacturing brands, consumer brands, and regional brands, and they are an important force in building a safe, stable, and efficient industrial chain. important force in the supply chain.
Industrial clusters have always been an important carrier of industry service regional strategies. China Textile Federation has 211 pilot industrial clusters, 109 of which are in counties and cities (including 28 industrial base cities and 81 characteristic cities), and 102 of which are in towns and streets. The industrial layout dominated by counties and towns, and the industrial attributes of primary, secondary and tertiary industries, make clusters play an important role in promoting the connection and transformation of urban and rural industries, and are an effective way to realize rural revitalization and promote new urbanization construction; the east is strong and the west is strong The weak development potential gap and the supply and demand relationship between central cities and peripheral cities give clusters the ability to link regions and coordinate resources, which is an effective way to narrow regional gaps.
Industrial clusters have always been an important hub for the efficient circulation of industrial factors. As the synthesis of industrial cycle and market cycle, the unity of economies of scale and economies of scope, industrial clusters connect production, supply, and sales, and link domestic and foreign markets, and have strong resource aggregation effects and radiation effects. With the development of the industrial Internet and the acceleration of industrial digitalization, high-quality elements such as talents, raw materials, capital, technology, and data are gathering at a faster speed and on a larger scale. Under the new development pattern of dual circulation, clusters have become the key to resource integration.
The textile industry is the earliest industrial sector in China to carry out industrial cluster services. By this year, the China Textile and Apparel Industry Federation’s industrial cluster pilot co-construction work has gone through 20 years. The exploration and practice in industry cluster work has become an important mechanism platform for in-depth cooperation between industries and local governments, and continues to enrich the theories and methods of Chinese-style modernization construction and modern textile industry development. After 20 years of hard work and hard work, a large number of textile industry clusters have emerged rapidly in industry services, and the processes of intensification, specialization, and branding have continued to accelerate, forming a vivid scene of dots and dazzling brilliance. World-class industrial clusters such as Keqiao, Shengze and Humen have become an indispensable part of the global supply chain. In the new era, industrial clusters will play a greater role and demonstrate greater value.
Currently, changes in the world, the times, and history are unfolding in an unprecedented way. The structural adjustments faced by the industry have put forward new requirements and new directions for cluster construction.
Facing the changes in the market structure, it is necessary to create a high-end industrial cluster that connects dual cycles. The continued sluggish world economy and the arrival of the era of stock economy have made the structural contradiction between supply and demand increasingly prominent. Industrial clusters need to deepen supply-side reforms based on the large domestic market, make up for shortcomings, forge long boards, build bottom boards, improve supply capabilities, and integrate global resources.��, meet global needs, integrate into the trend of globalization with a more inclusive and responsible attitude, and deeply participate in the division of labor and cooperation in global industries.
Facing the trend of integrated innovation, it is necessary to create a future industrial cluster with connotative development. Manufacturing innovation represented by intelligent manufacturing, additive manufacturing, and biomanufacturing, material innovation represented by high-performance fibers and biomaterials, and great health and metaverse represented by Application innovation is changing the connotation of the industry and extending the boundaries of the industry. Advanced manufacturing clusters, digital industry clusters, new materials clusters, etc. are thriving, nurturing the future of industry and future industries, and promoting integrated innovation and innovative integration, which is an important direction for the development of industrial clusters.
Facing the adjustment of regional structure, it is necessary to create hierarchically evolving emerging industrial clusters. The implementation of major regional strategies and the deepening of new urbanization are promoting urban renewal and repositioning. The spatial structure of the industry is undergoing profound changes. Under the framework of the river basin economy, a cross-regional transfer of east-west mutual aid driven by large enterprises and major projects is being formed; relying on the urban agglomeration economy, from central cities to surrounding towns, a region with small, medium and micro manufacturing enterprises as the main body is being formed internal transfer. Cluster work requires planning and layout in the new regional pattern.
Facing the dual-carbon development goal, we must build a sustainable green industrial cluster. The harmonious coexistence of man and nature is an important feature of Chinese modernization. Factor supply capacity and environmental carrying capacity determine the development space of the industry. Based on the dual carbon goals, building resource-saving, green and low-carbon industrial structures, production methods, and spatial patterns are becoming inevitable requirements for cluster transformation and upgrading. Clusters should focus on sustainable development, accelerate efficiency improvement, reduce emissions, and achieve coordinated advancement of carbon reduction, emission reduction, and growth.
The path to benefit always goes with the times. Under the new situation, the construction of industrial clusters must closely follow the pulse of the times, adapt to changes, and continue to innovate. Here are three expectations.
First, adhere to integrity and innovation to improve the overall efficiency of the textile industry cluster. Strengthen the manufacturing foundation, guide high-quality factor resources to accelerate the gathering of clusters, and promote the high-end, branding, and international development of industrial clusters. Strengthen the cultivation of chain master enterprises, specialized and special new enterprises, build a development ecology that integrates large, medium and small enterprises and coordinate production, supply and marketing, and enhance the modernization level of the industrial chain. Strengthen cross-border integration and collaborative innovation to build new industrial clusters with higher added value and more competitiveness.
The second is to adhere to the system concept and build an industrial spatial pattern for coordinated development. It is necessary to proactively integrate into major national regional strategies and build an industrial layout with complementary advantages and high-quality development. The eastern region should strengthen its innovation advantages and market advantages, and accelerate the development and cultivation of world-class industrial clusters with leadership, cohesion, responsibility, and contribution. The central and western regions, especially ethnic border areas, must undertake industrial transfer in an orderly and high starting point, and cultivate characteristic clusters around resource endowments, intangible cultural heritage and ethnic culture.
The third is to adhere to the people-oriented approach and realize the harmonious symbiosis of production and living ecology. Give full play to the important role of industrial clusters in ensuring market entities and stabilizing local employment, and enhance the contribution of industrial clusters to regional economic prosperity and people’s livelihood development. Standing at the height of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, we will actively and steadily promote the green, low-carbon and cyclic development of clusters, making industrial clusters an important force in guiding the green transformation of regional industrial systems and shaping regional green trends.
It’s easy to move together, and it’s easy to unite and unite to unite. The Chinese-style modernization path contains huge opportunities and broad space for the high-quality development of textile industry clusters. Let us move forward together and add glory to the rejuvenation of the nation and the prosperity of the country.
I wish the meeting a complete success! thank you all!
