Page 10 - Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development

implementation of high-quality development initiatives for key industrial
chains in the manufacturing sector and develop advanced manufacturing

clusters.
We should promote technological transformation and upgrading to shift
toward digital and intelligent development in the manufacturing sector,

develop smart, green, and service-oriented manufacturing, and work faster to
transform industrial models and enterprises’ organizational forms. We should
reinforce national quality infrastructure, strengthen standard-based guidance

and make it more internationalized, and step up brand building. We should
improve the industrial layout and promote the orderly relocation of key
industries within China.

8. Fostering emerging industries and industries of the future
We should redouble efforts to develop emerging pillar industries. We
should launch industrial innovation projects and make integrated moves to

construct innovation facilities, advance technological research and
development (R&D), and promote product upgrading. We should accelerate
the development of industrial clusters in strategic emerging fields such as

new energy, new materials, aviation and aerospace, and the low-altitude
economy. To improve the industrial ecosystem, we should carry out
demonstration initiatives to extensively apply new technologies and products

in new scenarios and scale up emerging industries at a faster pace.
Forward-looking plans should be put in place for industries of the future.
We need to explore diverse technology roadmaps, typical application

scenarios, feasible business models, and market regulation rules and work to
foster new drivers of economic growth such as quantum technology,
biomanufacturing, hydrogen and nuclear fusion power, brain-computer

interfaces, embodied artificial intelligence (AI), and 6G mobile
communications. We should introduce new regulation methods, develop
venture capital investment, and establish mechanisms to increase funding and

share risks in future industries. We should promote the growth of small and
medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that use specialized and sophisticated
technologies to produce novel and unique products. We should also nurture

unicorn companies.
9. Promoting the high-quality, efficient development of the service sector
We should carry out capacity-expanding and quality-upgrading
initiatives in the service sector, opening the sector wider, deepening

regulatory reform, and refining support policies to create a broader range of
