Wang Ruixiang, chairman of China Machinery Industry Federation, addressed the China Machine Tool Industry Forum
Dear Ambassador Xie Guoyi, Vice Minister Ivan Scafalotto, Chairman and Chairman, Chairman and Friends of China Machine Tool Industry, Ladies and Gentlemen, Good afternoon!
I am very pleased to attend the first Yizhong Machine Tool Industry Forum. Here, on behalf of China Machinery Industry Federation, I hereby extend my warm congratulation on the success of the forum!
At present, the revolution in science and technology and the industrial revolution have given birth and the global manufacturing industry has entered a period of deep readjustment. All countries in the world are formulating their own manufacturing-oriented strategies in order to seize the opportunity to achieve future development. Today, the Italian Embassy in China and related organizations, The first Italian-China Machine Tool Industry Forum was held under the theme of 'Italian Industry 4.0 Helping China Make 2025'. It is of great significance to conform to the general trend of global technology and industry development and to meet the new needs of the manufacturing industries of China and Italy.
China is a large country in the machinery industry By the end of 2016, the number of machinery enterprises with annual sales income over 20 million yuan has reached 86,000 with total assets of 21.1 trillion yuan, annual main business income of 24.55 trillion yuan and total profit of 1.69 trillion yuan , Total import and export 647.5 billion US dollars.
Machine tool industry is an important foundation and an important part of China's machinery industry.At present, the number of enterprises reached 6,490, the main business revenue reached 1.16 trillion yuan, the total import and export volume of 221.73 billion USdollars. Since 2009, China's continuous eight Year become the world's largest producer and consumer of metal working machine tools, but we clearly know that the large-scale industrial structure is not good, the quality of products is not refined, the whole variety of brands and other big but not strong, the problem is still outstanding, the overall industry The level of industrialized countries there is still a big gap between.
Not long ago, Chinese President Xi Jinping reiterated China's basic national policy of adhering to the policy of opening to the outside world and put forward the concept and proposition of 'helping each other and strengthening synergies among nations' and 'building a community of human destiny' and solemnly declared to the world that China will open a new course of action World and develop a new stage of open economy at a higher level.According to relevant information, China's market will further expand in the next 15 years and is expected to import 24 trillion U.S. dollars of goods and absorb 2 trillion U.S. dollars in direct overseas investment. Total foreign investment will also Reaching 2 trillion U.S.dollars.With the growing need for a better life of more than 1.3 billion people in China, an escalating and promising large market in China will bring enormous business opportunities to enterprises in various countries.
In the new round of development, China's manufacturing industry will follow the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics and strategic arrangements set forth by the 19th CPC National Congress, speed up the implementation of the "Made in China 2025" strategy for the transformation and upgrading of manufacturing industries, Become strong.Which as a key area of the machine tool industry, will focus on enhancing the capability of independent innovation, promote the industry to achieve digital, intelligent, green development will further expand opening up and promote international capacity and equipment manufacturing cooperation with Italy and other countries in the world And seek common development and create a better future.As far as I know, at present, Italy has many successful experiences in promoting the implementation of Industry 4.0 and accelerating the development of manufacturing industry. Many enterprises are quite powerful and it is worth learning from Chinese enterprises.
Today's 'Industry 4.0 Italia Assisted in Manufacturing 2025' and 'The First Italian Machine Tool Industry Forum' is a good start for the close cooperation between the manufacturing and machine tool industries of the two countries. I believe that representatives from all walks of life and entrepreneurs from both countries get together , Mutual exchange and mutual understanding and seek opportunities and methods of mutual benefit, mutual benefit and win-win cooperation will surely have a positive impact on promoting the development of manufacturing industry and machine tool industry in China and Italy. I also look forward to China and Italy in the field of machinery industry Conduct extensive exchanges and cooperation.
I sincerely wish the manufacturing and machine tool industries in the two countries will work together in the future to jointly create a new future!
Finally, I wish this forum a complete success!
