Innovation is the first driving force to lead the development of enterprises. Since the reform and opening up, China's innovation ability has improved rapidly, and the number of invention patents accepted has ranked first in the world for five consecutive years. Among them, the number of enterprise invention patents granted accounts for more than 60% of the domestic invention patents granted. Breakthroughs have been made in a series of major technologies, such as high-speed railway, nuclear power, fourth-generation mobile communication and UHV power transmission and transformation, which have driven products and equipment to the world. However, we should also see that China's scientific and technological reserves need to be strengthened, high-end talents are still scarce, the situation that key core technologies are controlled by people has not been fundamentally solved, and many industries are still at the low end of the global value chain. The ideological concepts and deep-seated institutional mechanisms that restrict innovation and development need to be eliminated urgently. Enterprises should firmly establish the concept of innovation and development, vigorously implement the innovation-driven strategy, and further promote transformation and upgrading. First, vigorously promote technological innovation of enterprises, concentrate on conquering a number of key core technologies, and take the lead in the high-end manufacturing field. Grasp the technological opportunities brought by the new generation of information technology, and promote the integrated development of Internet, cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things and modern manufacturing. Widely adopt advanced new technologies, new equipment, new processes and new materials at home and abroad to speed up the technological transformation of enterprises. The second is to improve the system and mechanism to promote enterprise innovation, and further improve and perfect the system and mechanism that is conducive to enterprises to change their business model, business model and economic development mode. Make full use of the government's policies and social resources to encourage independent innovation, build an enterprise innovation platform and build an enterprise innovation strategic alliance. Actively promote enterprise-led collaborative innovation in Industry-University-Research, adhere to the combination of "bringing in" and "going out", integrate enterprise innovation into the whole society and global innovation network, and form a joint force to promote enterprise innovation and development. We should combine our own reality, explore effective forms of participating in the distribution of innovation achievements, implement the incentive of option equity and dividend right, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm of innovators. The third is to continuously promote enterprise management innovation, use internet thinking, study and analyze the market, products and value chain of enterprises, and promote business model innovation. It is necessary to benchmark with international first-class enterprises, pay close attention to key management links and break through weak management links. It is necessary to strengthen lean management, strengthen basic management, speed up the standardization and intensification of enterprise management, continuously reduce costs and increase efficiency, take practical measures to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and seek benefits from management.
Enterprises should develop in a coordinated way.
Coordination is the premise of sustainable and healthy development of enterprises. Since the reform and opening up, China's comprehensive strength has been continuously enhanced, the scale of economic aggregate has been greatly improved, the added value of manufacturing industry has jumped to the top in the world, and the proportion of high-tech industries and strategic emerging industries has continued to rise, which has effectively supported the substantial improvement of China's economic strength and people's living standards. However, we should be soberly aware that the uncoordinated problems in the development of enterprises are still outstanding, mainly reflected in the extensive development mode, serious overcapacity in some industries, declining profits of some enterprises and frequent major safety accidents. In accordance with the requirements of "de-capacity, de-inventory, de-leverage, cost reduction and short-board" of the central government, the majority of enterprises should vigorously promote the structural reform of the supply side, cultivate and expand strategic emerging industries, push traditional industries to the middle and high end, accelerate the development of modern service industries, continuously optimize the industrial organizational structure and spatial layout, and adhere to the road of high-quality and efficient industrial development in their work. (Continued from the first edition) First, strive to seize the commanding heights of international competition, implement intelligent manufacturing projects, focus on developing intelligent equipment and products, promote the transformation of production methods to flexibility, intelligence and lean, extend enterprise service chains and service links, and comprehensively improve the intelligent level of enterprise R&D, production, management and service. The second is to develop strategic emerging industries, and achieve new breakthroughs in the new generation of information technology industry, high-end equipment manufacturing industry, new materials industry, new energy industry and biological industry by coordinating scientific and technological research and development, industrialization, standard formulation and application demonstration. Third, while continuously optimizing and upgrading traditional industries, further promote the great development of service industry, especially producer service industry. Better combine the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries with the development of emerging industries, promote the application of new technologies, new processes, new equipment and new materials, better meet the high-quality needs of consumers, improve the level and efficiency of production technology, accelerate the development of emerging market formats such as e-commerce and modern logistics, vigorously develop high-end industries such as big data and cloud computing, and actively develop after-sales service, improve service quality and service standards.
Enterprises should develop green.
Green is a necessary condition for the sustainable development of enterprises. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has placed environmental protection in a more important position, the governance process has been significantly accelerated, and new achievements have been made in the construction of ecological civilization. However, China's resource constraints are tightening, environmental pollution is serious, the ecosystem is degraded, and the contradiction between development and population, resources and environment is becoming increasingly prominent, which has become a major bottleneck for economic and social development. As users and beneficiaries of the natural environment, enterprises should actively respond to the call of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, conform to the trend of the times, further enhance their sense of responsibility and consciousness, effectively change their development concepts, take more effective measures, incorporate resource consumption, environmental damage and ecological benefits into the enterprise development evaluation system, accelerate the formation of resource-saving and environment-friendly production methods, and strive to make breakthrough progress in changing the development mode. First, vigorously develop and apply low-carbon new technologies that can greatly reduce energy consumption and direct greenhouse gas emissions, build an enterprise production system characterized by low emissions, promote efficient recycling of resources, make full use of waste heat, residual pressure, waste gas, waste water, waste liquid and waste residue, and develop a circular economy. Second, take lean management as the main line, further improve energy conservation, emission reduction and cleaner production, speed up the construction of energy management system, improve the internal control management mode of energy consumption, improve the level of energy management and control, and promote the development of low-carbon cycle. Third, strengthen energy and resource intensive management, actively adopt advanced and applicable energy-saving technologies, processes and equipment to implement technological transformation, eliminate backward technologies and equipment, improve resource and energy utilization efficiency, reduce waste, actively promote product structure adjustment and upgrading, gradually phase out products with high energy consumption and low added value, and develop products with low energy consumption and high added value.
Enterprises should be open to development.
Openness is the only way for enterprises to "go global". Since the reform and opening-up, the development of China has been a process of expanding and deepening its opening-up, from the establishment of special economic zones to the promotion of foreign trade and the utilization of foreign capital, and then to its accession to the WTO. However, on the whole, China's opening-up level is not high enough, and its ability to make good use of international and domestic markets and resources is not strong enough. The ability to cope with international trade frictions and strive for the right to speak in international economy is still weak, and the ability to apply international trade rules is not strong enough. China has entered a new stage of deep interaction with the world, and the integration of enterprises into the international economic system will be further accelerated. The vast number of enterprises should make full use of the historical opportunity of the profound adjustment of the international economic structure and the moderate recovery of the world economy, speed up international operations, and enhance their ability to allocate and reorganize resources on a global scale, so as to be feasible, tenable and effective. First, give further play to competitive advantages, rationally choose investment methods, make overall arrangements for production and marketing forces on a global scale, especially take the initiative in the "Belt and Road", further improve the international priority development strategy, strive to form a mutually beneficial cooperation pattern that is deeply integrated with all countries in the world, and play an important role in economic globalization and the formation of a new pattern of mutually beneficial and win-win development for all countries. Second, while consolidating and improving the competitiveness of traditional superior products, we will vigorously develop service trade, expand emerging export-oriented industries such as equipment manufacturing, and orderly promote international cooperation in production capacity and equipment manufacturing in key industries such as steel, nonferrous metals, building materials, railways, electric power, chemicals, textiles, automobiles, communications, construction machinery, aerospace, ships and offshore engineering, so as to promote the export of equipment, technology and services in China. Third, actively participate in global economic governance and the supply of public goods, further master the internationally accepted rules of the game, the laws and regulations of the host country and the political, economic, social and cultural background, and be alert to and guard against various risks of "going global".
Enterprises should enjoy development.
* * * Enjoyment is the requirement for enterprises to build harmonious labor relations. Since the reform and opening up, the living standard, income level and social security level of Chinese workers have been continuously improved, but there are also problems such as large income gap, increasing contradictions in labor relations, and difficulties in employment and life for some workers. As creators of social wealth and users of labor force, enterprises should persist in developing for employees, relying on employees for development, sharing development achievements with employees, and further strengthening the construction of harmonious labor relations. First, adhere to the people-oriented concept, and strive to create a strong atmosphere of respect for labor, knowledge, talents and creativity, so that workers can work and live with dignity. Second, continuously strengthen and improve the democratic management system, improve the scientific wage growth mechanism and payment guarantee mechanism, so that the development of enterprises can benefit the broad masses of employees. The third is to continuously improve the technical quality and employability of workers, strengthen training investment, strengthen school-enterprise cooperation, and vigorously carry out employment skills training, job skills upgrading training and entrepreneurship training to stimulate the potential of workers and promote the sustainable and healthy development of enterprises.
This year is an important year to implement the concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and enjoyment put forward by the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee, and it is also the first year of the 13th Five-Year Plan. It is hoped that the majority of enterprises will earnestly implement the "five development concepts", seize the new opportunities contained in the new normal, blaze new trails, dare to take responsibility and act boldly, and build a well-off society in an all-round way in order to realize the upgrading, efficiency improvement and sustainable development of the national economy.
