In accordance with the Municipal Party Committee’s arrangements for thematic education and its requirements for promoting investigation and research, Gong Zheng, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor, conducted a research visit yesterday to enterprises in emerging industries in Minhang District. Gong Zheng pointed out that industry is the cornerstone of high-quality development, and emerging industries are crucial to Shanghai’s future competitiveness.We must thoroughly implement the spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress and General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important speeches during his inspection of Shanghai. Under the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee, we must closely follow the major trends of the technological revolution and industrial transformation, seize opportunities to develop emerging and future industries, deepen the foundations of innovation-driven development, ignite the engine of scientific and technological innovation, foster a favorable industrial ecosystem, help outstanding enterprises stand out, and make new contributions to accelerating the construction of a high-quality, efficient, and innovative modern industrial system.
Data Robotics Co., Ltd. is a leading unicorn enterprise in the field of intelligent robotics. In the afternoon, Gong Zheng and his delegation visited the company to inspect its automated production lines, cloud-based robot exhibition center, and humanoid bipedal robot laboratory, gaining a detailed understanding of the company’s technological innovation, business model innovation, and industrial application development. A company representative noted that, as a developer, manufacturer, and operator of cloud-based robots, the company continuously drives cutting-edge technological innovation research and industrial applications, enabling robots to achieve intelligent self-learning and evolutionary growth.Shanghai Tuopu CNC Technology Co., Ltd. primarily provides intelligent manufacturing equipment and process solutions for enterprises in the aerospace sector. Gong Zheng and his delegation toured the company’s product exhibition center, visited the production workshop, and listened to briefings on the company’s R&D of high-end equipment and processing technologies, as well as its product sales and market prospects. At each company, Gong Zheng inquired about any challenges that needed to be addressed and encouraged the enterprises to enhance the quality and competitiveness of their products while seizing opportunities presented by market growth.
Gong Zheng pointed out that industry serves as the “hard foundation” of a city’s core competitiveness. We must focus on serving national strategies, courageously shoulder the mission of achieving self-reliance and self-strengthening in science and technology, and strive to shape a modern industrial system. Building upon the “3+6” industrial framework, we must vigorously develop four new growth sectors—the digital economy, green and low-carbon development, the metaverse, and smart terminals—while accelerating our布局 in five key future fields: future health, future intelligence, future energy, future space, and future materials.We must optimize the industrial ecosystem by vigorously fostering an environment conducive to technological innovation, the commercialization of research outcomes, and the aggregation of talent, while promoting the optimal allocation of resources. We must enhance industrial continuity and competitiveness by leveraging the role of “chain-leading” enterprises in industrial chains, focusing on unblocking core links and technical bottlenecks in industrial and supply chains, continuously driving innovation in business models, and elevating levels of digitalization, intelligence, and environmental sustainability to accelerate the development of a group of world-class emerging industrial clusters.We must continue to optimize government services, providing tailored “policy packages” and “service packages” for different enterprises to help them fully utilize various policies and achieve better and faster development.
