Cultivate emerging industries and look to the future of the chemical industry

Premier Wen Jiabao pointed out: "The development of strategic emerging industries is a major strategic choice for China based on current difficulties and long-term perspectives." With the determination of the country's seven strategic emerging industries, the petrochemical industry will develop new industries and cultivate new economies. The idea of ​​growth point is also gradually clear. The development of emerging industries is not only one of the important contents of the structural adjustment of the petrochemical industry, but also the entry point of the petrochemical industry's structure adjustment and transfer mode. So, what are the emerging industries in the petrochemical industry? How to cultivate? The reporter interviewed Zhao Jungui, vice president and secretary-general of the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association.
Zhao Jungui called for the entire industry to pay attention to fostering strategic emerging industries. He said that the global financial crisis has pushed the industrial upgrading of China's petrochemical industry to the front, and not cultivating new industries will affect the future development of the industry.
Zhao Jungui believes that emerging industries are a relative concept, and the contents of emerging industries are different at different stages. At present, China is in a crucial period of structural adjustment and industrial upgrading, and is facing a severe international competition situation. Therefore, the characteristics that emerging industries should possess are supported by technological advancement, characterized by high technology content and high added value, which can play a significant role in promoting the future development of the country and have international competitiveness. Specific to the petrochemical industry, emerging industries involve new energy sources, new chemical materials, new fields of fine chemicals, new medicines, and environmental protection. These must all be based on the country’s seven strategic emerging industries.
Since the financial crisis, the irrational contradiction in the petrochemical industry structure has gradually emerged. Most of the export products are at the lowest end of the value chain of the industry, with low technological content and poor competitiveness. The export of these products has suffered the hardest hit in the crisis. At the same time, in the process of expanding domestic demand in China, a large number of foreign petrochemical products are influx, and the domestic market is continuously occupied. Zhao Jungui said: "These phenomena have fully exposed the problems of China's petrochemical industry being large but not strong and the quality of its industries being low, and it also shows the necessity and urgency of nurturing new industries and seizing the commanding heights of the economy."
At present, the biggest difficulty in cultivating emerging industries lies in the lack of technical reserves. Zhao Jungui stated that nurturing strategic emerging industries is by no means an empty talk and is based on China’s current development stage and technological reserves. However, the current situation in China's petrochemical industry is: On the one hand, the industry has invested less in scientific and technological innovation, the number of results is small, the quality is not high, and the proportion of industrialization is low, which has become a bottleneck in the development of new industries; on the Other hand, the lack of public technology service platforms. Since the reform and opening up, China's petrochemical industry has made great progress in its innovation capability and technology introduction, but the service capabilities of public technology have been greatly weakened. Some technological innovation achievements cannot be supported and supported by related technologies and equipment, and even lead to some The gold medals and patent innovations cannot be industrialized.
How to break the bottleneck of lack of technical reserves? Zhao Jungui believes there is no other way but to strengthen technological innovation. He said: "Cultivating new industries must first carry out technological innovation. Without technical support, we can't talk about industrial upgrading. Technological innovation is the hardware, and it is the most critical part." Zhao Jungui believes that the technological innovation for cultivating emerging industries should be from three. Promote the level.
From the government level, it is necessary to create conditions for strategic emerging industries in the innovation system and establish supporting systems for government, production, education, and research. The government needs to assume responsibility for providing services in the field of public technology and increase public technical services. At the same time, the government should help companies defuse or share the risks of high-tech research and development. Any technological innovation must bear risks. The government must formulate and effectively implement the policies and improve them from the supporting fiscal, financial, and financial policies, guide enterprises to voluntarily invest their funds in high-tech industries, and encourage private capital and financial capital to enter new industries. Zhao Jungui stated that China’s current main problem is not shortage of talents or lack of funds. As long as there are institutional, institutional guarantees, and related policy orientations, these elements of talent and capital will come together to play a role. It is understood that the current subsidy policy for domestically produced equipment has exposed the "small sharp angle."
At the association level, industry associations should strive for a good development environment for the development of emerging industries. The Petrochemical Association has done a lot of work in this area. In 2009, in order to coordinate with the implementation of the “Planning and Revitalization of the Petrochemical Industry”, the Petrochemical Association released the “Guiding Opinions on the Revitalization and Support of the Petroleum and Chemical Industry Industry”, which includes new technologies such as new chemical materials, energy conservation and environmental protection, and new fields of fine chemicals. This provides an important basis for the scientific research of the company. In the major national science and technology projects and the 863 Plan, the Petrochemical Association approved a number of special projects and new projects for policy support. The petrochemical association has also established a "new strategic coalition for technological innovation in the coal chemical industry" that is conducive to the clean use of energy. This year, the petrochemical association will continue to advance these tasks. Zhao Jungui stressed that the development of new industries is inseparable from the transformation of traditional industries, and must first of all strengthen the technological transformation of traditional industries. Only with the technical foundation of traditional industries can we talk about cultivating new industries. Otherwise, it will be castles in the air. Therefore, the development of new industries and the transformation of traditional industries are two things in parallel.
At the enterprise level, while seeing the bright prospects of emerging industries, we must pay more attention to reasonable planning, and we must not blindly invest and be farsighted. As the main body of technological innovation, the enterprise is also the carrier of emerging industries. According to its actual conditions, technical reserves of the industry, the international market, and other aspects, the company chooses development routes and reduces investment risks. Otherwise, it is very likely that innovation will not succeed, and it will also cause unacceptable economic losses. In addition, enterprises must also support the construction of new industry technology innovation alliances, and play a concerted role, resulting in a "1+1>2" synergy and jointly promoting the development of emerging industries.
