Hangzhou, January 20 (China News Network) -- As the first place for the development of the digital economy, Zhejiang has built a "digital engine" for economic construction for many years, and has opened up a magnificent new digital practice. For the province, it is particularly important to go to the road of common prosperity and lead high-quality development with the digital economy.

In this year's Zhejiang Provincial Government Work Report, it is proposed that in 2022, Zhejiang will make every effort to promote the accumulation of the digital economy, deepen the "No. 1 Project" of the digital economy, and strive to increase the added value of the core industries of the digital economy by 12%. During the two sessions of Zhejiang Province, a number of CPPCC members focused on the development of the digital economy and offered suggestions and suggestions, explored the times and trends of the digital economy, and jointly sought the road and road of high-quality economic development.

Conspire to digitally transform and upgrade the manufacturing industry

From "Digital Zhejiang" to the information economy, to the "No. 1 Project" of the digital economy, to the digital reform... Looking at the development history of Zhejiang, it will be found that the province has made frequent moves over the years, and the digital economy has accumulated a lot of money.

Under the new situation, how can Zhejiang promote the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy, empower the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, give birth to new industries, new formats and new models, and lead high-quality economic development?

The digital upgrading and transformation of enterprises is the key and the trend of the times. Jin Kai, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, chairman of the Huzhou Municipal Committee of the China Democratic Construction Association, and president of the Huzhou Municipal Council for the Promotion of International Trade, found in the survey that small and medium-sized enterprises are currently facing problems such as the shortage of digital talents, the low degree of matching service providers, and the lag in the training of talents in colleges and universities.

"Enhance the exemplary role of leading enterprises and promote the digital level of small and medium-sized enterprises as a whole." He suggested that we cultivate and develop digital service enterprises, pave the way for enterprises to improve their digital level, and increase the cultivation of digital technology and economic talents to help enterprises digitally transform.

Focusing on the digital upgrading and transformation of private enterprises, Eun Jinyuan, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, chairman of the Hangzhou Municipal Committee of the China Democratic League, director of the Hangzhou Municipal Bureau of Statistics, and captain of the social and economic survey team, suggested adopting four "strengthening", including strengthening the combination of policy funds and special fund support, combining recent talents with medium-term talent training, combining technical standards with strategic structure design, and combining technical management capabilities with confidential technology research and development.

For example, he believes that a "emergency talent" training model that responds to the rapid and iterative changes of modern enterprise digital technology should be established in the near term, and a "potential talent" training model with both practical skills and system theoretical knowledge should be established in the medium term.

Jointly promote the healthy development of new formats of the digital economy

In addition to the more effective digital upgrading and transformation of enterprises, how can the new formats of Zhejiang's digital economy industry fully blossom and achieve high-quality development of "a game of chess"?

Chen Dehong, member of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, chairman of the Shaoxing Municipal Committee of the China Democratic National Construction Association, and vice mayor of the Shaoxing Municipal People's Government, believes that Zhejiang still needs to pay attention to several problems and shortcomings in promoting the high-quality development of the digital economy: "In the near term, Zhejiang digital economy enterprises are undergoing profound changes in 2021; in the medium term, the self-sufficiency rate of high-end manufacturing core technologies is insufficient; in the long run, it faces a severe shortage of talents and uneven regional development. ”

To this end, he suggested accelerating the cultivation of new formats of the digital economy industry; strengthening RCEP regional cooperation to help the upgrading of Zhejiang's middle and high-end industrial chain; paying attention to the talent strategy of "external introduction and internal training"; strengthening the theoretical research and system construction of the digital economy, and developing the digital economy in a balanced and coordinated manner.

"We should bring together mobile payment, cross-border e-commerce, new retail, digital inclusive finance, digital cultural tourism, digital medical and health and other fields to build a multi-level and progressive digital industry enterprise pyramid, form a new form of digital economy industry in which large, medium, small and micro enterprises of different sizes coexist, and develop rapidly from many places around Hangzhou to the rapid development of digital economy formats in the province." Chen Dehong gave an example.

At present, Zhejiang is deeply implementing the "No. 1 Project" of the digital economy, how to step onto a new level of development?

Jing Xiandong, a member of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Ant Group, suggested that it is necessary to strengthen the traction of the high-quality development of the digital economy - the digital upgrading of the service industry, and also to seize the important starting point of promoting the technology and industrial innovation of the blockchain.

He proposed that the ecological advantages of the platform economy should be used to promote the accelerated development of the digitalization of the service industry; encourage the development of digital technology service providers and explore a diversified digital product and service system; promote the digital concept of the service industry, increase the supply of digital management talents; and guide and encourage local banks to strengthen financial support for the service industry.

Jointly promote digital governance to optimize the business environment

The continuous development of the digital economy and the continuous advancement of digital reform have also promoted the digital governance process of the Zhejiang government, and "running at most once" or even "not running once" has now become a common practice, and the business environment has been continuously optimized.

In 2021, Zhejiang's digital reform has achieved hard-core results, the three-level integrated intelligent public data platform of provinces, cities and counties has been fully launched, and a large number of landmark applications such as "Zhejiang Takeaway Online", "Zhejiang e-Line Online", "Vehicle Detection One Thing", "Intelligent Quick Handling of Key Small Matters of People's Livelihood" and so on are online.

In the view of Wang Zhentao, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, vice chairman of the Zhejiang Federation of Industry and Commerce, and chairman of Aokang Investment Holdings Co., Ltd., focusing on digital reform is an important "move" to improve the business environment.

He said that we should be guided by the real needs of enterprises, give full play to the traction role of digital reform, vigorously promote cross-departmental, cross-system, multi-service comprehensive integration and innovation, continue to optimize market supervision, promote the construction of pro-Qing government-business relations, deepen "Internet + supervision", deepen the construction of "industrial brain", and deepen the communication mechanism between government and enterprises.

As early as 2016, Zhejiang took the lead in proposing and comprehensively implementing the construction of the "four platforms for grass-roots governance", which effectively improved the grass-roots governance capacity and the effectiveness of disposal, and won the general praise of the people.

Focusing on this, Tang Jiayou, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, vice chairman of the Lishui Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and chairman of the Lishui Municipal Committee of the China Democratic League, believes that with the continuous advancement of the modernization of grass-roots governance and the improvement of the people's requirements for the wisdom of social governance, the platform needs to be further strengthened and improved. He suggested that we should increase the intensity of digital reform and create the 2.0 version of the "four platforms for grassroots governance".

He said that the government should take the lead in creating an efficient platform to truly reduce the burden on the grass-roots level, while establishing a closed-loop mechanism with clear responsibilities, scientifically setting assessment indicators, and establishing a mechanism for the participation of the whole people. For example, in terms of "the government taking the lead in building an efficient platform", he suggested promoting the construction of a smart governance center, promoting the sharing of government data resources, and developing a comprehensive information APP.
