On July 8th, at the press conference of Shanghai Municipal Government, Wu Jincheng, Chairman of Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization, introduced the three action plans to promote the development of green and low-carbon industries, cultivate the new track of "metaverse" and drive the high-quality evolution of the intelligent terminal industry. Qiu Wenjin, Vice Chairman of Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission, Wang Ye, Vice Chairman of Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Commission, and Wu Qiang, Deputy Head of Pudong New Area, attended the press conference.
In order to deploy Shanghai’s new track of kinetic energy, we should focus on several development orientations. First of all, it should have the height of leading the future, such as intelligence, ecology and health, which is not only the general trend of global industrial innovation and development, but also the strategic direction of key national deployment. Second, it should have the breadth of empowering thousands of industries. For example, metaverse will drive the transformation and upgrading of various industries in the real economy through the integration of reality and virtuality, while the development of intelligent terminals will foster the leap of the upstream industrial chain at large. And third, it should have the rate of sustainable and explosive growth, such as metaverse and smart terminals, which are expected to give birth to new formats and models, emerge "killer" applications and popular products, and release huge market value. Green and low carbon, metaverse and intelligent terminals will be the future direction and growth momentum of Shanghai's new "3+6" industrial system, which will continuously enrich, replenish and expand the implication of Shanghai's industrial development.
The cultivation action of green and low-carbon industries will concentrate on 10 sectors around 4 key directions. First, focus on high-end industries and lead the superior tracks. Second, promote the development of clusters and broaden the tracks in parallel. Third, expand the application scenarios and seize the emerging tracks. And fourth, increase integration and innovation to achieve “corner overtaking”. By 2025, the size of green and low-carbon industries will exceed RMB500 billion, generally forming a layout of two 100-billion-level industrial clusters, five 10-billion-level industrial clusters and a number of billion-level industrial clusters.
Metaverse will be an essential platform for the interaction between virtual world and real society in the future, and it is also a new manifestation of digital economy with great potential. Therefore, we should focus on the implementation of "four actions”, including industrial highland construction action and model integration and empowerment action, and eight projects, including key technology breakthrough project, digital IP market cultivation project and industrial innovation carrier cultivation project.
Concerning building household terminal brands and a self-contained terminal ecosystem, we will vigorously develop intelligent terminals such as intelligent connected cars, intelligent robots, virtual-reality interactions, smart homes and smart wearables. The goal is that by 2025, the industrial scale will exceed RMB700 billion, with no less than two enterprises boasting 100-billion-level revenue, no less than five enterprises boasting 10-billion-level revenue and no less than 20 billion-level enterprises. It is also important to create more than 10 featured intelligent connected cars and emerge more 100 intelligent terminal products in 10 major application scenarios such as transportation, elderly care and healthcare.
