A few days ago, the “Outline Plan for Accelerating the Cultivation and Development of Strategic Emerging Industries in Hunan Province” and seven special industrial plans were issued. "This marks the official launch of the development and cultivation of strategic emerging industries in Hunan Province."

Give Priority to the Development of Seven Key Industries

According to the planning outline, Hunan's strategic emerging industries are mainly composed of the following seven industries: advanced equipment manufacturing industry, new materials industry, cultural and creative industries, biological industry, new energy industry, information industry, and energy conservation and environmental protection industries.

“There are two prerequisites for choosing these seven industries.” Jiang Zuobing told reporters that, first of all, it must be a major technological breakthrough and a demand caused by a major market; secondly, it must be based on the existing industry. For example, equipment manufacturing industry, construction machinery, rail transit, power transmission and transformation equipment, new energy equipment, etc. have a certain influence and popularity throughout the country, including construction machinery industry in the domestic market share of 26%. In the cultural and creative field, four major advantages have been formed: broadcasting, publishing, animation, performing arts and entertainment. It has more than 20 firsts in the development of Chinese culture, and the output of original animation ranks first in the country for 5 consecutive years.

“The strategic emerging industries that we have identified take into account both the current social development and the overall and long-term benefits.” Jiang Zuobing told reporters with a smile.

After seven years, seven industries will account for 20% of GDP

According to the outline of the plan, by 2015, the strategic emerging industries will form a basic pattern of healthy development and coordinated advancement. The promotion of industrial upgrading will be significantly enhanced. The average annual growth of value added will be more than 20%, and the total amount will reach 500 billion yuan, accounting for GDP. The proportion exceeds 20%. By 2020, strategic emerging industries will become an important driving force for economic and social development. The average annual growth rate will increase by more than 15%, and the total amount will reach 100 billion yuan, accounting for about 25% of GDP.

"As for the determination of the target, we have also widely solicited opinions." Jiang Zuobing said that the entire plan was formulated according to 10 years, mainly based on the first five years. Therefore, this is a very specific goal.

It is reported that, in addition to the provisions on the growth rate and the proportion of GDP, the goal also stipulates that the three major industries of advanced equipment manufacturing, new materials, and cultural and creative industries will become the pillar industries of the province's economy, including biology, new energy, information, and energy conservation and environmental protection. Four major industries have become the leading industries in the province’s economy.

"This is a highly directive, highly operational, and practical plan." Jiang Zuobing said with certainty: "I think after this plan comes out, it will play a very important role in guiding and promoting the development of strategic emerging industries in Hunan. ."
