Preface
Ever since A Research Report on the Development of China’s Manufacturing
Sector (2004) was prepared, this research has focused on new-type manufacturing
industries and has explored a road map and way forward for the development of
China’s manufacturingsector. Thus far, 12 consecutive research reports have been
published. This book is the second English edition of the research report. During
theresearchprocess,wehavedeeplyunderstoodtherapiddevelopmentofChina’s
manufacturing sector and witnessed the rapid improvement of China’s manufac-
turing sector in terms of economic resourcefulness, technological innovation
capability, and resource and environmental protection capability. While China is
developingitselfintoaninnovation-orientedcountryandtransformingitselffroma
large manufacturing country into a strong manufacturing country, this research
report is expected to accurately reflect the improvement of China’s manufacturing
sector in self-dependent innovation capability and to assist in the transformation,
upgrade, and innovative development of China’s manufacturing sector.
This research report focuses on the topic of technological innovations guiding
the development of China’s manufacturing sector. Specifically, this report high-
lights a development road map for China’s new-type manufacturing sector, con-
ducts normative research (including comprehensive evaluation, regional research,
industry research, and enterprise research), and deepens research on different
manufacturing industries, so as to accomplish higher academic value. The unique
and innovative points are mainly as follows:
“Comprehensive evaluation” sets forth the connotations of the new-type man-
ufacturing sector, and evaluates the general status of China’s new-type manufac-
turing sector from four aspects, namely, economic resourcefulness, technological
innovationcapability,energyconservationcapability,andenvironmentalprotection
capability.
“Regionalresearch”setsforththefollowingpoints.(1)Itevaluatesthedegreeof
newness of regional manufacturing industries from four aspects (i.e., economic
resourcefulness, technological innovations, resource utilization, and environmental
protection).GuangdongandJiangsuprovincesineasternChinataketheleadinthe

achievements in self-independent technological innovations. Anhui, Henan, and
Hunan in central China have grown rapidly in terms of scale of manufacturing
industries, but are confronted with such problems as a sharp increase in pollution
discharge and the largest discharge amount of waste gas and waste residue (it is
advisable to be vigilant about the well-known old road of “first pollution and then
remediation”). Western China has a relatively sluggish manufacturing sector and
continues to lag China’s developed regions in terms of economic resourcefulness;
thus,itisimperativetobuildanincentivemechanismtopromotetheclusteringand
growth of manufacturing industries. (2) The regional research type evaluates the
degree of newness of manufacturing industries of China’s 30 central cities. Cities
in eastern China have outstanding performance in economic resourcefulness
(inparticular,bothSuzhouandNanjinginJiangsurankinthetopthree),whiletheir
environmentalprotectioncapabilityisworrisome(inparticular,Suzhouranksatthe
bottom). Shenzhen has exceptional performance in both economic resourcefulness
and environmental protection capability, providing valuable experience for other
manufacturing cities.
“Industry research” sets forth the following points. (1) In light of the connota-
tions and evaluation index system for the new-type manufacturing sector, industry
research evaluates and ranks China’s manufacturing industries in terms of the
degree of newness by using the deviation maximization method. (2) Industry
research builds appropriate measuring models and empirically analyzes various
issues, for example, the influence of technological innovations on the growth of
China’s manufacturing sector, the energy efficiency of China’s manufacturing
sector and its influencing factors, the influence of informatization on the green
growthofChina’smanufacturingsector,andtheinfluenceofindustryclusteringon
technological innovations in China’s manufacturing sector.
“Enterprise research” analyzes the general development characteristics of
China’s listed manufacturing enterprises, rebuilds an evaluation and selection
system for China’s most respectable listed manufacturing enterprises, and selects
China’s top 50 most respectable enterprises accordingly.
