As we know, Liaoning is an important industrial base for the country. What considerations and arrangements does Liaoning have for developing new quality productive forces in the future?
Li Lecheng:
Thank you for your question. It's an excellent question. As I mentioned in my introduction, Liaoning is striving to take the lead in developing new quality productive forces. I will now elaborate on this aspect.
To foster new quality productive forces, we will reinforce the role of sci-tech innovation in turbocharging growth. This includes advancing the development of key laboratory clusters and basic science centers, establishing Liaoning laboratories, and promoting pre-research projects for major scientific equipment to strengthen the foundation for sci-tech innovation. We are facilitating closer collaboration among tech companies, universities and research institutions, enhancing the integration of research and industry. We are addressing challenging issues in critical areas. For example, Ansteel has developed a novel steel for extreme cold marine equipment, with three products debuting globally and six domestically, providing material support for major marine engineering projects such as the world's first ultra-deep-water drilling platform, "Blue Whale 1." We will continue striving to achieve more original and disruptive sci-tech innovations, and contributing Liaoning's strength to safeguarding the nation's industrial security.
In the pursuit of developing new quality productive forces, we will prioritize the development of the real economy. When discussing Liaoning's industrial landscape, the first thing that comes to mind might be the variety of major national achievements, such as the inaugural domestically built aircraft carrier, carrier-based aircraft, wind tunnel compressors and shield tunneling machines. Additionally, for those of us who use domestically produced smartphones, there is a high likelihood that the motor in your phone's camera originates from Liaoning. Currently, Liaoning holds the top position domestically and ranks second globally for this particular product. Aside from manufacturing numerous major national equipment, Liaoning has also cultivated many "hidden champions." We remain steadfast in our commitment to advancing the high-end upgrading of traditional industries and the industrialization of cutting-edge technologies, with a focus on areas such as digitalization and sustainability, to comprehensively boost our industrial competitiveness.
As part of our efforts to develop new quality productive forces, we will comprehensively deepen reform. Through a reform-oriented approach, we aim to efficiently gather innovative factors and conduct major technological innovation verification and demonstration applications. This will forge a seamless link between innovation and practical application, ensuring that more research outcomes can transition from theoretical concepts to tangible market products. For instance, we support large centrally administered state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in addressing emission reduction and carbon reduction technologies through open competition. This approach has resulted in a 1.9% reduction in comprehensive energy consumption per metric ton of steel, a 43.6% decrease in labor costs, and savings of millions of yuan in foreign software licensing fees. Furthermore, we will persist in our efforts to adjust and optimize the state-owned economy, empowering more promising entities to play pivotal roles in the economic landscape by confronting challenges head-on and overcoming obstacles effectively.
That is all from me. Thank you.
