FROM steel mills adopting AI-powered systems to textile factories deploying cutting-edge automation, China’s traditional industries are undergoing a significant transformation.
Spearheaded by President Xi Jinping, this drive is injecting fresh vitality into traditional sectors that underpin the country’s modern industrial base.
Under Xi’s watch, China is doubling down on boosting the competitiveness and sustainability in these sectors, which generate about 80 per cent of the country’s manufacturing output and play a vital role in supporting employment and broader economic growth. “The real economy should not be neglected. Nor should the traditional industries within it. And industrial transformation and upgrading must be realized through sci-tech innovation,” Xi, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, said while visiting Yangquan Valve Co, Ltd, a century-old enterprise, during an inspection tour in north China’s Shanxi Province this week.
