On April 26th, 2018, jointly organized by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers and CCTV Financial Channel, the 2018 China Automotive Forum supported by the World Automobile Organization (OICA) was held in Beijing. Mr. Qi Zhuquan, Director of CCTV Financial Channel, made a wonderful speech at the forum. Address.
The following are speeches by Mr. Qi Zhuquan, Director of CCTV Financial Channel:
Dear President Wan Gang, Dear Chairman of the Board of Directors, Dear friends of the automotive industry, Friends of the media, Good morning everyone, Just like the Secretary-General, CCTV is the first time to join the Automotive Forum this year. I think the automotive industry's position and role in China's economy in China is also due to our China Automotive Forum, which is an annual ideological feast of our entire automotive field in China. It is the responsibility of the CCTV Finance Channel, the country's main task for economic propaganda. To participate, we are also obliged to put this forum together. As the saying goes, 'Years are similar, Years are different, Every year's car forum will determine different themes according to the situation facing the car. This theme This year's theme is “new era, new trend, new strategy”, which is determined in response to the new changes in the automotive industry each year. The position I feel is very accurate. Understanding of this topic I want to take A foreigner in a car has such opinions. As an overview of the forms facing the automotive industry, I would like to have three aspects: First, the times ; Second, scientific and technological challenges; third, the development pressure.
First, the requirements of the times. We all know that our Party held the 19th Congress last year. We have deployed an important task for economic construction in the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and built a modern economic system. The fundamental issues highlighted here must be realized. China's economy has grown from high-speed growth to high-quality development, and has proposed supply-side reforms to build innovative countries, including regional coordinated development, rural rejuvenation strategies, building a socialist market economy system, and further building a more open pattern. Tasks in six areas. One of the most important tasks of the automotive field in such a context is the fact that our theme today is to achieve high-quality development. The day before yesterday, the Politburo held a meeting to study our current economic situation. The deployment of the next step in economic work, one of the most important tasks is to allow our development to meet the standard of high quality development. I am an outsider of a car. Sometimes I feel this pressure on us in this respect. It is great.
According to the data we have now, the number of cars produced in 2017 is 30 million. China is a big country for cars, but we can’t be considered as a powerful country. I would like to say no. Because of the concentration of our industry, the concentration of brands and the The supporting power of industry inside technology is still far from enough. I have the impression that when we talk about Germany, we can think of several major brands. When we talk about the United States, we can think of several major brands, but if it comes to China, We have a lot of brands and many companies. As a media person, we can't figure out the relationship between so many brands and companies. So we have a long way to go. Yesterday I had the privilege of attending a closed-door conference when I was thinking of a decade later. Our auto show is still there, our forum is still, but we can sit in the conference room a lot of auto companies can exist.
Second, technological pressure. Any industry is born out of science and technology, because of science and technology, because of science and technology. Since the birth of the automotive industry more than 100 years ago, I feel that it has indeed reached the point where technology has to make a big change to it. Even the stage of subversion. For this forum, including this auto show, our financial channel has invested a lot of propaganda. Yesterday at the conference, I also heard a lot of new expressions, like new energy, pure electric, driverless, smart. Interconnecting, etc. I feel really like what Chairman Dong has said that the car is changing its traditional form. From the past, a single vehicle is becoming a mobile smart space. This is the change that technology has brought to it. What kind of change has brought about a disruptive effect in the industrial sector? Because the advancement and application of these technological technologies have enabled the automobile to have more new forces to join in, so if we have a good grasp of this, we use These new technologies may lead to overtaking in the corners of our auto industry. If we do not handle them well, once we are thrown away again, we may have to lag behind for a long time.
When I talked here, I also think that people are very concerned about the current understanding of China’s economy and the economic situation. Last year we took a movie, “My country is awe-inspiring.” Now it is playing at the CCTV level, and then it will be at the local level. The satellite TV, broadcast on the Internet, includes the documentary "Great Power" jointly produced with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. These documentaries reflect the strength of the Chinese nation today. We should also see that we have recently seen trade frictions between China and the United States, including Some sanctions have caused many people to realize that we still have gaps in many areas. What do you think about this issue? It's the same thing that we see in the automotive industry. I've come down to such a sentence, you have to be full of confidence and you have to worry about it. Confidence is a must to see the achievements of our automotive industry, breakthroughs in technology, but also worry, we have many key links in this industry, technology, there are many places that can be stuck in the neck .
Third, development pressure. At the Davos Forum last year, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that China’s opening to the outside world will not be closed. Recently, at the Boao Forum, he also emphasized that when it comes to liberalizing the financial services industry, including when it comes to manufacturing I also want to let go of the automobile industry. I listened to this general secretary's statement. I think why we should open the car and let go of the financial market. When we learned from the 40th anniversary of the reform and opening up, he talked about our opening to the outside world. In order to promote development, opening up to a certain stage also has a role to play in opening up. We must use openness to force our reforms, open up to the outside world and force us to improve our system, and use openness to force the development of our industry. And for these two industries, we want to reform The history of the 40th anniversary of opening is often proven to be open earlier. The more fully developed into the market, the more likely it is to develop, but the longer it takes to hold it, the more it will be affected. The home appliance industry is an example. Today in the world of television, China It is the quality of production or quality that is far ahead. This opening to the outside world for our automotive industry really makes us a lot of automotive companies. It is both a challenge and a kind of pressure to face the challenge of not only performing at the same time in the country but also dancing to the international community. As an outsider, we summarize the situation facing the automotive industry. I feel that these three aspects should be the most The main aspects.
On this forum, I saw that we had arranged many forums. We will have very detailed discussions on these issues. We also believe that we have a forum that brings together experts from the ministries, enterprises, academics, media, and academics. The first-line practitioners will certainly have a lot of ideas for achievements, and there will be lots of wisdom collisions. If we are involved in this kind of participation, we will spread the ideas and opinions of everyone better and spread more deeply. Let everyone learn from each other and improve each other. To the community, let everyone pay more attention to our automotive industry and create a good environment for our business development. I think this is our original intention and our purpose. To achieve this The original intention of Fan Fan, to achieve our purpose, I wish the Chinese Automobile Forum a complete success. Thank you all.
