Construction Machinery Needs Greater Innovation and R&D

The development level of the equipment manufacturing industry is an important embodiment of a country’s overall national strength. The national major equipment manufacturing is a strategic industry related to national economic security and national defense security. China is a big manufacturing country for construction machinery and equipment. Several leading companies have also played a part in the international market. However, behind the scenes, the Chinese construction machinery industry has been plagued with pain for many years - the key components have been subject to control.

At this year's two sessions of the National People's Congress, Wang Jinfu, general manager of the National People's Congress and Chery Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., said that the core competitiveness of China's independent brand manufacturing industry is generally not strong, with excess production capacity at mid-to-low end and fierce competition. The high-end links in many industries are It has been firmly controlled by foreign brands. At the same time, foreign brands have been stuck for a long time in key components and core technologies.

Wang Ruixiang, deputy director of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference's proposal committee and president of the China National Machinery Industry Federation, said that China's equipment manufacturing industry is "big but not strong" and it is an indisputable fact. In particular, affected by the international financial crisis and the European debt crisis, China's equipment manufacturing industry is facing a grim situation of interception before and after the pursuit of troops. In terms of high-end equipment, the United States, the European Union and other developed countries began to recover the production and processing and manufacturing industries of high-tech, high-value-added equipment products from overseas, and adopted many incentive policies, such as tax deductions, subsidies, etc. Investors and manufacturers are encouraged to return to their home countries.

In the face of this situation, Ren Hongbin, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of China National Machinery Industry Group Co., Ltd. suggested that: First, domestic market demand should be used as a bargaining chip to operate according to market rules, forcing developed countries to transfer technology to China and to relax the export of high-end equipment to China. Control, abandon the import restrictions on low-end products in China; second, formulate procurement policies for high-end equipment that are conducive to independent innovation, and make it clear that national key projects are obligated to rely on high-end equipment to localize projects. Priority is given to the purchase of domestically produced equipment; the quotation of foreign investors should be based on the actual transaction price in the Chinese market from 3 to 5 years ago in order to prevent its malicious price cuts from depressing China's newly entered domestic enterprises in this area.

Nguyen NPC deputy and chairman of Shenyang North Heavy Industry Group, Rui Hongchen, proposed that the state implement corresponding industrial support policies, strongly support the construction of an innovation system with enterprises as the main body, and give a certain degree of upfront investment in the development of core technologies and products with independent intellectual property rights. Tax relief policy; for the introduction of the first set of major technical equipment policies should be introduced as soon as possible the implementation details; to pay special attention to training innovative engineering talent, according to market rules to adjust the professional structure of colleges and universities, training the country's strategic emerging industries need to lead Talent; vigorously promote the deep integration of industrialization and informatization, which is the future direction of development of equipment manufacturing industry.

Adhering to the path of international development As China's economy continues to improve its strategic position in the world, more and more Chinese companies are continuing to occupy the high ground of internationalization strategy. In 2012, China's construction machinery companies “collectively went to sea” and became a landmark event on the road to internationalization of Chinese companies. Liugong’s acquisition of Poland’s HSW, Sany’s acquisition of Germany’s Putzmeister, and Shandong Heavy’s acquisition of Italy’s Ferretti, etc. have made Chinese companies more and more fast in the world.

Wang Xiaohua, deputy to the National People's Congress and chairman of Liugong Group, stated that implementing the strategy of “going global” for enterprises and launching “dancing with wolves” in international capital operations is an active practice for the country to change the mode of economic development. More and more Chinese companies are sailing long distances and strengthen their international capital operations. They hope to use cross-border mergers and acquisitions to obtain advanced foreign technology and enhance their own core competitiveness. He believes that China has manufacturing advantages, and Europe has the advantages of technology, branding, and marketing networks. The implementation of international mergers and acquisitions is an initiative for Chinese independent brand enterprises to acquire advanced technologies, implement global operations, change from big to strong, and grow into a world-class multinational company. An effective way.

According to Xiang Wenbo, deputy to the National People's Congress and president of Sany Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., the internationalization of enterprises is a must, and it is not possible to do so. A large enterprise market is too concentrated and the ability to resist risks will be weakened. Once the local market fluctuates, it will have an impact on the stability of performance. To make Sany a world brand, it must be internationalized.

He believes that the biggest challenge for corporate international mergers and acquisitions is cultural integration, and the solution is localization. He said that in the process of international mergers and acquisitions, Sany does not send as few Chinese management teams as possible, but rather, it is mainly operated by a localized management team. Second, Sany's mergers and acquisitions and the sea are firmly focused on construction machinery. There is no excessive diversification; at the same time, the grasp of the investment rhythm and the grasp of the timing of investment are all stressful, which is related to the risk of overseas investment.

Green development requires policies to support the end of 2012 so far. Haze and haze has continued to infest some of China's major cities. During the two sessions, environmental protection, energy conservation, and emission reduction have also become hot topics. The construction machinery products are large oil-consuming and highly polluting products. The future industry has also become a focal point for delegates to create environmentally-friendly and energy-saving green products.

The proposal of the National People's Congress and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Guangxi Yuchai Machinery Group Co., Ltd. in the current two sessions is "Proposal of the State to Subsidize Medium and Heavy-Duty Vehicles to Meet State IV Emission Standards." He focused on how to reduce vehicle exhaust emissions and promote environmental protection. In the past five years, Fuping’s proposals and proposals basically centered on the development of the internal combustion engine industry and the dream of green environmental protection.

When talking about his two meetings this year, Yu Ping said: "The state must promote the upgrading of medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles through the terminal car subsidy policy, enhance the competitiveness of self-owned commercial vehicles, and further effectively control and reduce vehicle exhaust emissions. ”

According to Tan Xuguang, deputy to the National People's Congress, chairman of the China Internal Combustion Engine Industry Association and chairman of Weichai Holding Group, the internal combustion engine industry should accelerate the development of a number of remanufacturing key enterprises such as engines for automobiles and construction machinery, and realize energy-efficient and environmentally friendly internal combustion engine hosts and their zero The localization and large-scale production of component manufacturing and manufacturing equipment, and the establishment of policies, regulations, and standards for energy-saving and emission reduction of internal combustion engine products. For enterprises, on the one hand, they should strengthen their research and development capabilities and innovation capabilities, and through a full range of systematic innovations in the areas of operational systems, business models, technology research and development, and internal management, they should embark on an intrinsic path of development relying on independent innovation; On the other hand, we should pay attention to the energy saving and material saving of the internal combustion engine production process and achieve green production.

Tan Xuguang proposed to the competent department of the industry to formulate corresponding supporting policies, through technological transformation, implementation of major special projects, etc., to strengthen the industry's ability to independently develop and accelerate the research, development, application, and industrialization of new technologies for internal combustion engine energy-saving and emission reduction. At the same time, advance the diversification of alternative energy sources for internal combustion engines and the development of remanufacturing industries
