I. Deep Understanding of the Significant Importance of Further Comprehensive Deepening of Reforms in the Industrial and Information Technology Sectors

Industrialization is the prerequisite and foundation for modernization, and the breadth and depth of industrialization determine the progress and level of modernization. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China's new industrialization has been accelerating, with the unique advantages of a comprehensive industrial system, diverse product variety, and large scale becoming more prominent. The manufacturing sector has consistently ranked first in the world in terms of added value, industrial technological innovation capabilities have significantly improved, industrial structure has continuously optimized and upgraded, corporate strength and competitiveness have markedly enhanced, and high-quality development in the industrial and information technology sectors has taken solid steps, providing a strong support for advancing the Chinese path to modernization.

The fundamental guarantee for accomplishing the key task of achieving new industrialization. Reform is the driving force for development. During the new era of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, China's industry achieved leapfrog development, relying on reform and opening up. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, historic achievements and transformations have been made in new industrialization, also relying on reform and opening up. In the new era and new journey, advancing new industrialization and accelerating the construction of a manufacturing powerhouse and a cyber powerhouse still depend on reform and opening up.

The intrinsic requirements for promoting high-quality development in the industrial and information sectors. Industry is the mainstay and growth engine of the national economy, playing a "ballast" role in stabilizing the macroeconomic environment. In the year, China's total industrial added value reached . trillion yuan, accounting for .% of the GDP. Meanwhile, China's industrial development is at a critical juncture of climbing the slope and transitioning from large to strong. The prominent issues facing the promotion of high-quality development are still imbalances and inadequacies in development, constraints on some key core technologies, shortcomings in high-quality product supply, and industrial foundation capabilities, and there are still many difficulties in the production and operations of enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises.

The inevitable choice to effectively address major risks and challenges. Development and security are the two wings of a whole and the two wheels of propulsion, requiring coordinated consideration and simultaneous advancement. At present, the world is undergoing a great transformation unseen in a century, with profound adjustments in the global industrial development landscape, a rise in anti-globalization sentiments, a significant increase in unilateralism and protectionism, and escalating external打压遏制. China's industrial and information technology development has entered a period where strategic opportunities coexist with risks and challenges, and uncertainties and unpredictable factors are on the rise, with various "black swan" and "grey rhino" events potentially occurring at any time.

The urgent need to build new advantages in international cooperation and competition. Manufacturing is the foundation of the real economy, and the real economy is the capital for our country's development, serving as an important support for constructing future strategic advantages. Currently, a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is developing rapidly, with rapid iteration in fields such as new-generation information technology, new energy, new materials, and biotechnology. Artificial intelligence is increasingly becoming a key variable in future development, profoundly altering the global industrial development and division of labor landscape.
