Textile Cluster: Striding Forward To A New World-Class Highland In The 14Th Five Year Plan Period!

During the "14th five year plan" period, China's textile industry, on the basis of basically realizing the goal of textile power, grasped the new development stage, implemented the new development concept, constructed a new development pattern, further promoted the high-quality development of "science and technology, fashion and green" of the industry, and determined the new orientation of the industry in the whole national economy at a new starting point, The transformation and upgrading of industrial clusters will also be the most important carrier and industrial economic development mode.

In 2022, China Textile Federation will carry out the Fifth Review of national textile industry cluster. In order to better cooperate with the working committee of China Federation of textile industry clusters to do a good job in the fifth pilot review work, the Journal of China Textile Industry Federation, textile and clothing weekly, specially planned a series of reports on the start of the "14th five year plan" cluster -- the fifth textile cluster pilot review depth line report, which will go deep into the review series of industrial clusters, From the perspectives of "integration of industrialization and industrialization", "intelligent manufacturing", "regional brand", "mode innovation", "product upgrading" and "channel change", this paper reflects the new appearance and new trend of the cluster, and discusses how to better enable the high-quality development of the cluster and help the textile and garment industry cluster to pursue the new journey of "the 14th five year plan".

Textile industry cluster has been playing a strong leading role in the development of China's textile industry with a strong and complete supply chain system, and provides strong support for regional economy. China's textile cluster has been adapting measures to local conditions and distinctive characteristics of the development of industry, so it can take root in the county or township and blossom everywhere.

Textile cluster is the forerunner of industrial development. Relying on the advantages of industrial chain, they can turn quickly according to market demand, and cultivate leading enterprises in full market competition, and further promote the coordinated development of regional industries. The virtuous circle and large-scale development of regional industrial economy further drives the prosperity and prosperity of regional economy.

Textile industry cluster plays an important role in promoting China's economic development, which is very important to textile industry economy and local economy. It is the responsibility of China Textile Federation to continuously promote the healthy development of industrial clusters. Since the textile industry cluster pilot work was carried out in 2002, China Textile Federation has been strictly screening, investigating, absorbing and updating the industrial cluster pilot areas in accordance with the requirements of the industrial cluster pilot rules of China Textile Industry Federation. By the end of 2021, 210 textile industry clusters have established pilot co construction relationship with China Textile Federation nationwide.

According to the deployment requirements of China Textile Industry Federation on strengthening textile industry cluster work, review work is carried out every three years. In 2022, China Textile Federation will carry out the Fifth Review of national textile industry clusters.

　　PART/ 1

Cluster development in the 14th five year plan will further optimize industrial layout and enhance coordination

In fact, most of the indicators of China's textile industry have reached or even ahead of the world's advanced level, and the most complete modern textile manufacturing industry system has been established in the world. The production and manufacturing capacity and international trade scale have been in the first place in the world for a long time, becoming the first echelon of China's manufacturing industry to enter the array of powerful countries. In the process of industrial development, textile industry cluster plays a very important supporting role.

In the new historical period, textile cluster has been given new tasks and missions.

The outline for the development of the textile industry during the 14th Five Year Plan period (hereinafter referred to as the outline) points out that in the period of the 14th five year plan, China's textile industry, on the basis of basically realizing the goal of becoming a powerful textile country, will further promote the high-quality development of "science and technology, fashion and green" based on the new development stage, implement the new development concept and build a new development pattern, Determine the new positioning of the industry in the whole national economy from a new starting point, that is, "the pillar industry of national economic and social development, the basic industry to solve people's livelihood and beautify life, and the advantageous industry of international cooperation and integrated development".

For the development of clusters, the outline clearly proposes that we should optimize the domestic layout and enhance the coordination of development

First, docking the national regional development strategy. The economic integration strategy of the Yangtze River Delta, the Yangtze River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta will be implemented. Central cities focus on the development of science and technology innovation platform and urban fashion industry, and accumulate scientific and technological innovation and fashion creative talents. In areas where advanced manufacturing industry is mature, leading enterprises such as single champion, pilot enterprise, specialized and special new, small giant and other leading enterprises will be formed. Relying on the linkage relationship between the core area driving the periphery and the downstream driving the upstream and midstream, the cross regional linkage development effect of textile industry is formed.

Second, further improve the level of regional coordinated development. Based on the middle and high end of the value chain, the southeast coastal areas vigorously improve the level of collaborative manufacturing, lean manufacturing and green manufacturing; We will coordinate international and domestic resources, develop international level R & D centers, design centers and brand centers, and build textile intelligent manufacturing demonstration bases. The development of textile industry helps the industrialization and urbanization construction in the central and western regions. Based on the resource conditions, we should constantly improve the industrial system, service supporting facilities and comprehensive investment environment, continue to guide leading textile enterprises to expand their investment in the central and western regions, encourage them to return home and start businesses, and expand the scale of textile manufacturing industry; We should expand the local employment scale of rural surplus labor force, improve labor skills, and promote rural revitalization.

Third, promote the development of high-level industrial agglomeration. We should use modern science and technology to promote the construction of a number of world-class textile industry clusters, which have the world's leading innovation ability, manufacturing ability and sustainable development ability, and the single variety has the world's leading industrial scale, and the product manufacturing and circulation are deeply embedded in the global value chain to form regional brands with world influence. Mature industrial cluster areas give full play to the advantages of professional market and industrial chain, further highlight the advantages of advanced and green manufacturing, build high-level, modern and intelligent industrial clusters, combine with urbanization, build characteristic industrial towns, and enhance regional brand influence. The emerging industrial cluster area takes the Industrial Park as the carrier, develops in close coordination with the mature areas, builds the modern textile industry manufacturing base, and actively integrates into the global textile industry supply chain. Give full play to the cross regional layout of leading enterprises, establish "headquarters + bases" through cross regional mergers and acquisitions, implement a number of major projects and key projects of cross regional industrial cooperation, and drive small and medium-sized enterprises to integrate into the supply chain system.

Fourth, upgrade and develop the public service system. Based on the spatial distribution of industrial clusters, provide high-quality and accurate public service supply, and improve the service functions of inspection and testing, R & D and design, exhibition and trade, education and training. Optimize the development environment of each main body of the industrial cluster, local government, cluster management institutions, scientific research institutes, key enterprises, industry associations and other parties form cooperation to jointly improve the public service ability of industrial cluster, and help the overall development of small and medium-sized enterprises in the cluster.

Sun Ruizhe, President of China Textile Industry Federation, once said at the Council of China Textile Federation that it is necessary to adhere to "one game of the whole country", integrate industrial development into major regional development strategies, and promote the formation of industrial layout with distinctive characteristics, complementary advantages, regional linkage and coordinated development. The construction of modern, digital and low-carbon industrial clusters will promote the construction of new urbanization and Rural Revitalization. Accelerate the cultivation of world-class textile industry clusters. We should give full play to the leading advantages of the eastern coastal industries and the huge space for industrial development in the central and western regions, strengthen the role of industrial cooperation in counterpart support, and promote common prosperity through industrial development. Major projects of industrial cooperation will be taken as the traction to drive the orderly transfer of supporting links in the industrial chain.

Build a world class industrial cluster and move towards the middle and high end of the global value chain

In China's economic map, the more developed the region is, the more important position of textile and clothing industry. Therefore, it has more advantages as an innovative group.

In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping clearly pointed out: support the optimization and upgrading of traditional industries, accelerate the development of modern service industry, and aim at international standards to improve the level. It has become a national strategy to promote China's industries to move towards the middle and high end of the global value chain, cultivate some world-class advanced manufacturing clusters, and build world-class advanced manufacturing clusters.

The construction of world-class industrial clusters in the textile industry is the need of the status of pillar industry of national economy and people's livelihood industry, the need of industrial modernization and the need of maintaining the world leading position. China's leading textile industry in the world needs to build a world-class industrial cluster. China's textile industry has made great achievements in equipment, technology and materials. China has become an important influential country in textile science and technology.

After nearly 20 years of exploration, innovation and development, China Textile Industry Federation has formed a number of pilot areas which play an important role in the industrial economy, play a pillar role in the regional economy, and make outstanding contributions to many fields such as market prosperity, employment expansion, technological innovation, brand creation, etc. Since 2019, there have been 12 "world-class textile industry cluster leading areas" which have been applied by leading clusters in various regions, approved by China Textile Industry Federation and established pilot co construction relationship. In addition, two "world-class fashion town pilot areas" have been jointly built by Yishang town in Yuhang District of Hangzhou city and Dalang fashion town in Longhua District of Shenzhen city.

Coincidentally, it is also mentioned in the government work report of the NPC and CPPCC this year that we should enhance the core competitiveness of the manufacturing industry. We will launch a number of industrial infrastructure reconstruction projects, promote the upgrading of traditional industries, accelerate the development of advanced manufacturing clusters, and implement the national strategic emerging industry cluster project. We will promote the construction of a powerful country with quality, and push forward the industry to the middle and high-end.

Cluster development should grasp the window period of digital development

Textile industry is an important pillar industry of China's national economy, and cluster development is the prominent feature of China's textile industry. At present, the total number of enterprises in the industrial cluster area exceeds 200000, including 16000 Enterprises above Designated Size; The main business income of textile enterprises in the industrial cluster area accounts for more than 45% of the national textile industry's main business income, and the cluster economy has become an important part of the textile industry; More than 8 million people are employed in the textile industry in the industrial cluster area; Textile industry cluster plays an important role in stabilizing growth and employment.

In order to maintain high-quality development of textile industry in the future, it is necessary to accelerate the pace of digital transformation of industrial clusters, promote the transformation and upgrading of textile industrial clusters to digital and intelligent with new generation of information technology, and create a number of digital world-class textile industrial clusters.

Digital economy is a powerful engine to smooth economic cycle, activate development momentum and enhance economic resilience. According to the data, 84% of the counties (cities) clearly put forward the digital economy as the main direction of future transformation. Textile industry clusters are mainly distributed in cities and towns, accounting for more than 45% of the main business income of the whole industry, and there are a large number of small, medium and micro enterprises. The integration of cluster development into regional digital transformation helps to solve the problem of insufficient power and ability of transformation, and has higher efficiency.

Of course, we should also pay attention to the policy opportunities of counting the East and the West. At the same time, the development of data cluster is also matched with the development of data cluster. Through the construction of computing power hub and data center cluster, the project can effectively promote the investment and development of digital economy related industries in central and western regions. The improvement of information infrastructure makes the foundation for the development of intelligent manufacturing and digital economy in the western region more solid. This gives the western region the ability to undertake the transfer of small and medium-sized enterprises and the possibility of building industrial clusters from a higher starting point.

Specifically, we should strengthen the top-level planning and overall planning, focus on the digital construction of industrial clusters, and promote the coordinated development of industrial digital transformation and regional digital economy. We should take advantage of the policy opportunities such as the number of East to west and other policy opportunities to further optimize the distribution of industrial productivity. Promote the establishment of national digital textile and garment industry cluster innovation and development center, and strengthen public service capacity. Establish and improve the information infrastructure construction of industrial Internet, big data center and other industries, cultivate ecological aggregation platform, guide enterprises to "go to the cloud, use data, and give wisdom", and expand digital coverage and penetration rate. Strengthen the development and application of industrial big data, and promote the data productization and service of the whole process, full scene, full contact and full life cycle of the industry. We should deepen the industrial scene, strengthen the innovative application of AI, VR and other technologies, promote platform based design, lean management, intelligent manufacturing and network collaboration, develop service-oriented manufacturing, and create a flexible supply chain.

We should integrate industrial development into major regional development strategies and promote the formation of industrial layout with distinctive characteristics, complementary advantages, regional linkage and coordinated development. It is necessary to promote new urbanization and Comprehensive Rural Revitalization with the construction of modern, digital and low-carbon industrial clusters.

Based on the new development stage, the fifth reexamination has special significance of the times

Xia Lingmin, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation and director of China Textile Federation industrial cluster Working Committee, once pointed out that the construction of world-class textile industry cluster Pioneer Area needs to lead the industry transformation and upgrading. First, it is necessary to speed up scientific and technological innovation and application of achievements, including new textile materials, advanced textile products, green textile manufacturing, etc Textile intelligent manufacturing based on industrial Internet and the construction of textile industrial Internet; Second, we should speed up the brand promotion of small and medium-sized enterprises, pay attention to original design, high quality and quick response; Third, we should speed up the improvement of the public service system of industrial clusters; Fourth, we should speed up the innovation of circulation mode and the construction of circulation channels; Fifth, we should speed up the training of talents.

At the same time, it is necessary to deepen the service of industrial clusters to help the construction of new urbanization and Rural Revitalization. Fully explore the characteristics and advantages of central and western regions and border areas, and promote the inheritance and development of textile intangible cultural heritage. Improve the balance and coordination, give play to the leading advantages of the eastern coastal industries and the huge space for industrial development in the central and western regions, strengthen the role of industrial cooperation in counterpart support, take major industrial cooperation projects as a guide, drive the orderly transfer of supporting links in the industrial chain, and promote common prosperity through industrial development.

If the review work of textile industry cluster is a means to test whether the co construction relationship is close, then a large number of visits and discussions, exchange and research, experience summary and promotion of cluster development in the review process are more worthy of attention. The development of industrial clusters in different regions has different origin advantages, different resource endowments, different choice of development path, and colorful enterprise development strategy. The development mode of cluster is also diversified.

Based on the new development stage, we should implement the new development concept, build a new development pattern, and promote the high-quality development of textile industrial clusters. After more than 20 years of organized development of textile industrial clusters, the Fifth Review of textile industrial clusters in 2022 will re investigate the development of local clusters, which also has special significance of the times.
