Equipment Manufacturing Faces Rare Development Opportunities (2)

In view of the blind and repeated introduction of some user companies in the past, the state proposed to regularly adjust the list of prohibited imports or restricted imports. Restrict the import of key technologies that already have research and development capabilities in the country, prohibit or limit imports of high-consumption, high-pollution, and backward equipment and technologies that have been eliminated.
In addition, the defense sector is an important user sector for equipment manufacturing. For the development of highly sophisticated technical equipment, the support of the defense industry is of utmost importance. To this end, we must give play to the role of national defense procurement in supporting independent innovation and should base ourselves on domestic independent innovation products and technologies. Independent innovation products and technologies that meet the needs of national defense or national security should be given priority in procurement. Government departments should first purchase domestic independent innovation products for procurement projects involving national security.
For the phenomenon of "tax reversal" in the import field of equipment manufacturing, the country has clearly adjusted the corresponding import tax policy. For major technological equipment and products that are included in the national development priorities, the Ministry of Finance shall, in conjunction with the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments, formulate special import tax policies when conditions are ripe. Some of the key components and raw materials imported by domestic manufacturers for the development and manufacture of these equipment are exempted from import duties or returned after the implementation of the first levy, and the value-added tax of the import link shall be returned first. At the same time, the import tax exemption policy for complete machines and complete sets of equipment was cancelled.
Accelerate the implementation of localization of major technical equipment
"Rejuvenating the equipment manufacturing industry is a long-term and arduous task. It requires the coordination of various departments of the State Council and local governments at all levels and related industry associations. It needs to play a major role in equipment manufacturing enterprises and needs strong support from the user departments." For a period of time, Zhang Guobao emphasized that the major responsibilities of the National Technology and Equipment Coordination Office of the National Development and Reform Commission are to organize the preparation of major national technical equipment plans, coordinate major related policies, and promote the implementation of major localization of technical equipment, and complete other tasks assigned by the State Council. task. In the future, focusing on the key areas and major links in the major technological equipment autonomy, the National Technology Development and Reform Commission's Major Technical Equipment Coordination Office must focus on six aspects: First, coordinate the implementation of major related policies and improve the policy system.
The policies and measures proposed by the State Council in the No. 6 document and the No. 8 document are already clear and can be implemented immediately. For the policies and measures that only make directional or principled statements in the above documents, it is necessary to coordinate the relevant departments to step up implementation of the detailed implementation rules. Combining with new situations and new issues arising from the operation of equipment manufacturing industry, timely study and put forward new policies supporting the development of equipment manufacturing industry, put forward effective measures to support the development of key enterprises and key products, and establish a long-term mechanism to promote the sound development of equipment manufacturing industry. .
It is necessary to pay close attention to formulating technical policies for the equipment industry, including: large-capacity, high-parameter power generation and transmission and transformation of electricity in the power industry, production of oil refining and chemical fiber raw materials for the petrochemical industry (including offshore petroleum engineering), mining of the coal industry, and smelting of metallurgical industries. Rolling, production of new (environmental) building materials for the building materials industry, key assembly production for automotive products for the automotive industry, new rail transportation for the rail transportation industry, and communications, bioengineering for the ocean shipping industry, aerospace engineering, information industry And medical and pharmaceutical fields and other equipment.
It is necessary to organize the compilation of lists of major technical equipment and major industrial technologies that are prohibited and restricted from introduction, publish it as soon as possible and regularly revise it, prevent the blind introduction of foreign technologies and equipment, prohibit the import of new construction projects with high energy consumption, high pollution, and eliminate obsolete old mechanical and electrical equipment. We do not encourage the use of foreign capital with additional purchasing conditions to directly import major technological equipment and key products that the country has focused on developing.
It is necessary to organize the preparation of national major technical equipment plans and organize their implementation as soon as possible. The No. 8 document of the State Council has identified 16 key development areas for China's equipment manufacturing industry in the coming period of time. It is necessary to prioritize and plan the preparation of several key areas in the near future.
Second, relying on key projects to promote the autonomy of equipment in key areas.
Focusing on the 16 key and key areas put forward by the “State Council’s Opinions on Accelerating the Revitalization of the Equipment Manufacturing Industry”, the existing industry base and actual operability should be comprehensively considered in the near future, and the priorities must be sorted out to organize several major technical equipment and key technologies. The collaborative research and digestion and absorption of new projects, combined with major projects to promote the localization of major technical equipment.
In the field of power generation equipment, it is necessary to rely on key construction projects such as Xiluodu and Xiangjiaba, and jointly study with manufacturing companies and user departments of Hadian, Dongdian, Yizhong, and Duixin etc. Planning arrangements.
The large-scale pumped-storage generating units shall be subject to bidding, technology and trade, introduction of technology, and cooperative manufacturing of 16 large-scale pumped storage hydropower stations in Huizhou, Baoquan, Bailian, etc., to encourage enterprises to master the design and manufacturing technology of large-scale pumped-storage units and realize local Production.
In terms of thermal power, the focus is on the development of ultra-supercritical thermal power units, gas-steam combined cycle units, integrated gasification gas-steam combined cycle units, and large-scale circulating fluidized bed boilers, etc., on the basis of the introduction of digestion and absorption. Form independent design and development capabilities as soon as possible.
In the field of power transmission and transformation, it is necessary to rely on the National Grid Corporation’s Jindongnan-Jingmen Exchange 1000kv UHV pilot demonstration project, Xiluodu and Xiangjiaba to send ±800 kV and 6.4 million kilowatts of DC UHV power transmission domestic demonstration projects. The company's Yunnan Chuxiong-Guangzhou Suidong ±800 kV, 5 million-kilowatt DC UHV transmission domestic demonstration project. For the UHV power transmission test and demonstration projects, key equipment in the demonstration project shall be formulated with localization plans, and special assessments shall be organized one by one to implement the localization work.
In the field of petrochemical equipment, the company will focus on the localization of key equipment for one million tons of ethylene and one million tons of PTA, relying heavily on Zhenhai Petrochemical, Tianjin Petrochemical, Fushun Petrochemical's ethylene projects, etc., through the introduction of key technologies to digest, absorb, and innovate. Independently developed to achieve independent production of ethylene "cracking three machines", large-scale cold boxes, reactors, compressors, large dryers, and key pump valves, and achieved new breakthroughs in the localization of large-scale petrochemical equipment. Metallurgical equipment must rely on heavy and heavy enterprises, relying on Angang Yingkou new rolling project to promote the localization of complete metallurgical equipment.
In the field of ships and rail transportation, we must rely on the relatively complete industrial base and a more reasonable industrial structure to concentrate a batch of market resources and realize the realization of key technical links and key components such as large-scale marine crankshafts, locomotive VVVF systems, and communication signal systems. Change. Large-scale construction machinery should focus on promoting heavy shield machine projects and actively create conditions to promote heavy asset cooperation with foreign companies and achieve technological integration.
The machine tool industry should focus on the key enterprises such as Shenyang Machine Tool, Dalian Machine Tool, Qiyi, Qi'erji, Harbin, Jinan No. 2 Machine Tool, Wuzhong, and Huazhong Numerical Control, to promote the localization of high-end CNC machine tools, heavy-duty CNC machine tools and key components in China. Strengthen the docking of the machine tool industry and military enterprises, improve product quality, establish a positive interaction mechanism between the machine tool industry and the military industry system, and drive the technological level of the machine tool industry.
In the area of ​​automation control required for major technical equipment, it is necessary to actively promote the participation of automation equipment manufacturers in negotiations and project implementation, centering on power equipment, metallurgical equipment, and transportation equipment, relying on Xu Ji, NARI, Baosteel, Shanghai Xinhua, Beijing, and Lishi. , Zheda Zhongzhong and other enterprises improve the production design capability and technical level of key automation and control systems in China.
For other key areas in the 16 items, we must also follow closely, pay attention to the dynamics, and actively promote it.
Third, take effective measures to enhance the ability of independent innovation of enterprises.
Core leading companies should raise their awareness of the importance of enhancing independent innovation capabilities, increase investment in R&D, increase innovation capacity building, and actively promote original innovation, integrated innovation, and re-innovation based on digestion and absorption. Enterprises should unite universities and research institutes, select some important areas, and strengthen key technologies for key technologies in equipment manufacturing to develop and improve the design, manufacture, and completeness of systems and autonomy of major technical equipment and high-tech equipment. For major technological equipment that is related to the country’s overall situation and strategic interests, and the enterprises cannot complete independently, it is necessary to concentrate on organizing research projects and the state must provide necessary financial support. Encourage enterprises and research institutes, colleges and universities to jointly carry out research and development work and accelerate the industrialization of research results.
Fourth, with the help of joint restructuring and financial support, the rapid development of enterprises will be promoted.
For key enterprises, we must follow the principle of one policy, one policy and one policy. We should earnestly study each one one by one to promote the rapid growth of key and key enterprises, and drive the overall development of the industry through key breakthroughs. Efforts should be made to promote the joint reorganization between equipment manufacturing enterprises, encourage various domestic ownership capitals to participate in the reform, reorganization, and transformation of major technological equipment manufacturing enterprises, and support the reorganization of enterprises across industries, regions, and ownership. Promote the integration of production companies and research institutes, and promote the alliance between production enterprises and user units.
To break the traditional concept of the department and the original management system, and under the guidance of macro guidance and the role of the market mechanism, foster a group of engineering companies, system companies, and companies that integrate system design, system integration, project general contracting, and full-process services. The engineering supervision company participates in the construction and management of key national engineering projects.
On the other hand, we must provide a good financial support environment for equipment manufacturing companies. While strengthening the construction of the credit environment, the country has given certain policies to enable banks and equipment manufacturing companies to form benign interactions on the basis of enhancing credit and dissolving bad debts.
Fifth, we must grasp the direction of reform of equipment manufacturing enterprises and improve the management system for foreign capital mergers and acquisitions.
When dealing with the reform of the reform of the state-owned equipment manufacturing enterprises, it is necessary to prevent the enterprises that have undertaken the tasks of the country's major technical equipment and master the core technologies from simply selling them. It is necessary to pay attention to fostering and protecting the independent R&D and manufacturing of major technological equipment that has been formed over the years. system.
To this end, according to the characteristics of foreign mergers and acquisitions, learn from foreign mature experience, as soon as possible to formulate regulations or methods of foreign mergers and acquisitions, from the industrial access, prevention of monopoly, asset sales, foreign exchange management, aftercare and other aspects to be standardized. To perfect the management system of foreign capital M&A, the National Development and Reform Commission shall take the lead to establish a joint review mechanism for foreign capital mergers and acquisitions, formulate corresponding review procedures and government approval systems, and consider the total market supply and demand and productivity in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations, industrial policies, and industry standards. Factors such as layout, national economic security, and public interest will be reviewed for foreign capital M&A projects. Large-scale key equipment manufacturing enterprises must obtain approval from relevant departments of the State Council when transferring equity to foreign capital.
Sixth, earnestly play a role in all aspects and jointly create an enabling environment.
At present, most of the equipment manufacturing enterprises are local state-owned or state-controlled enterprises, and local governments must strengthen their leadership in revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry. In a certain sense, whether or not equipment manufacturing can be rejuvenated is an important aspect of the importance of local government. Local governments must take effective responsibility and put this work into the agenda, strengthen organizational leadership, and do a good job in the reform and development of local equipment manufacturing. It is necessary to combine local practices with the establishment of systems and mechanisms that promote the revitalization of the equipment manufacturing industry and the autonomy of major technological equipment to create a favorable environment for the development of the equipment manufacturing industry. It is necessary to promote the pace of reform, reorganization and transformation of equipment manufacturing enterprises and actively resolve historical burdens for enterprises. It is necessary to open up financing channels, increase financial investment, and support equipment manufacturing companies to improve their independent innovation capabilities.
Related industry associations should also give full play to the role of the bridge between the government and enterprises, establish regular information release systems and industry early warning systems for market supply and demand, production capacity, technical and economic indicators, and promptly reflect the industry trends to the government administrative department. Put forward policy suggestions to help enterprises coordinate and solve relevant problems and guide the healthy development of enterprises.
Equipment industry users and equipment manufacturers must strengthen cooperation because the equipment manufacturing industry and the application industry are closely related. Enterprises and project owners in all equipment application industries must take responsibility for revitalizing the equipment manufacturing industry, support manufacturing enterprises to organize production and independent innovation, and actively provide application-related technologies, processes, and information to provide trials and trial operations for the first set of equipment. Convenience. The selection of equipment and technology routes by the user units must be in line with China's economic development level. Do not blindly pursue high standards and high standards. At the same time, equipment manufacturing companies must also strictly abide by the contract, guarantee quality and quantity delivery, and do a good job of after-sales service.
