We will optimize the layout of petrochemical industries such as ethylene and
advance the orderly relocation and safe development of the chemical industry. We

will promote the healthy development of the modern coal chemical industry and
push forward the construction of demonstration centers for its development. We
will press ahead with major petrochemical projects and develop world-class
petrochemical bases and enterprises.
We will optimize the layout of the NEV industry and drive the sustained and

healthy development of the NEV battery industry. We will foster clusters of
strategic emerging industries, research and develop a number of complexes for
innovation and public services, promote the integrated and clustered development
of strategic emerging industries, and speed up the development of advanced

manufacturing clusters. We will consolidate our leading position in industries
where we excel, such as NEVs, 5G, and photovoltaics, make forward-looking plans
for future industries, and develop the bioeconomy, the hydrogen power industry,
and BeiDou Navigation Satellite System industries. We will accelerate R&D and
application of cutting-edge technologies such as AI, biomanufacturing, green and

low-carbon technologies, quantum computing, and aviation and aerospace. We
will promote smart manufacturing.
We will work out policies and measures to build a new system of efficient and
high-quality services and promote further integration of modern services with

advanced manufacturing and modern agriculture. We will continue to launch
initiatives to boost quality and build China into a manufacturer of quality. We will
accelerate the development of a modern logistics system and improve the
infrastructure networks for logistics in order to cut logistics costs.
3) We will accelerate the development of the digital economy.

We will advance the innovative development of digital industries and cultivate
a number of internationally competitive industry-leading enterprises and digital
industry clusters. We will work on formulating policies that support the
development of basic systems for data, such as the property rights system for data

resources and the data trading market. We will strengthen top-level design for
building open source systems. We will embed digital technologies in the real
economy by strengthening top-level design for digital transformation, refining
policies and measures that support digitalization, and organizing and
implementing digital transformation projects, in a bid to spur high-quality

development of the real economy. We will push forward the integrated
