Li Changyin: Overcapacity in Chinese Shipbuilding Industry

Recently, CPPCC National Committee members, general manager of China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation and Party leader Li Changyin said in an exclusive interview: “The overall production capacity of China's shipbuilding industry has been surplus, and the recovery of the shipbuilding industry is not yet visible. The development of the shipbuilding industry lies in the development. Use marine resources."

Li Changyin analyzed that the development of the shipbuilding industry shoulders a major mission in the development and utilization of marine resources, the protection of the marine environment, and the protection of the nation’s maritime rights and interests. At present, with the green and smart technology as the symbol, the world’s new round of scientific and technological innovations and industrial changes centered on information network technology, digital manufacturing technology, artificial intelligence technology, and new material technologies have gradually emerged, “German Industry 4.0”. "Return to the United States manufacturing industry" and so on have shown that advanced manufacturing technology will become the future direction and focus of the development of equipment manufacturing.

Li Changyin pointed out that compared with foreign countries, China’s high-end shipbuilding and marine equipment manufacturing technologies have a significant gap compared with foreign countries, mainly because their innovation capability is not strong, and there are still major deficiencies in core manufacturing technologies and manufacturing processes; The level of intelligent equipment manufacturing technology has lagged behind; the level of systematization and integration is not high, and the application of new technologies such as big data and industrial internet of things is insufficient. He suggested that China should increase investment support and focus on supporting the research and development of advanced manufacturing process technologies and intelligent manufacturing equipment, steadily push forward the construction of automated production lines and digital workshops, and gradually create intelligent manufacturing plants for high-end ships and marine equipment to occupy the world’s manufacturing industries. cutting edge.

Li Changyin said that China’s shipping industry should deepen international cooperation and encourage domestic enterprises to cooperate with foreign R&D institutions and manufacturing companies in various ways to increase the starting point for development; support domestic enterprises with conditions to carry out international operations and cultivate international brands. Participate in high-level international cooperation and improve international competitiveness.

It is understood that China's shipbuilding industry entered the world market in the early 1980s and is at the forefront of the domestic industry. At present, China ranks second in the world in terms of deadweight tonnage. In 2014, China ranked first in the world in terms of handheld orders and ranked second in the world in terms of deliveries; Shipbuilding ranked first in the world. In addition to luxury cruise ships, other shipbuilding China can already be constructed.
