Guidance: A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation caused by the cross-integration of information technology, biotechnology and new energy technology has put forward very high requirements for the intellectualization of major technical equipment products, the greening of modes, the networking of services and the diversification of business forms.

Made-in-China is trying to break the ice, squeezed by the dominance of developed countries and the catch-up of emerging economies.

Reporters learned that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is working with relevant departments to prepare the "Made in China 2025" plan, which is expected to be launched in mid-2015, to draw a clear road map for China to become a modern industrial power.

Li Dong, deputy director of the Equipment Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said at the 2014 China (Beijing) International Energy Summit that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, together with the Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Finance, was working out Made in China 2025.

In the outline of the plan, it is proposed to develop equipment manufacturing industry with the "1 + 10" planning system, especially to focus on the development of major technical equipment. At present, various ministries and commissions have launched the Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Promotion of Major Technological Equipment in the New Period.

Li Dong said that after 30 years of efforts, China's major equipment manufacturing has made significant progress and breakthroughs, but there is still a big gap compared with foreign advanced manufacturing countries, highlighting that the core technology of high-end energy equipment is controlled by others.

Li Dong said that the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation caused by the cross-integration of information technology, biotechnology and new energy technology put forward very high requirements for the intellectualization of major technology and equipment products, the greening of modes, the networking of services and the diversification of business forms.

Relevant people also said that the state is expected to continue to increase investment in key industrial basic research. Statistics show that insufficient innovation is closely related to insufficient investment. In 2013, China's R&D investment accounted for 2% of GDP, while industrial developed countries were more than 2.5%, Sweden, Finland and other countries were even more than 3%. The R&D investment of Chinese enterprises accounts for only 1%~1.5% of sales, while that of foreign enterprises with strong innovation ability reaches 3%~5%.
