Zhu Hong: The theory of new qualitative productivity is a new great creation

Based on the dimensions of scientific connotation, value implication, and practical methods, General Secretary Xi Jinping has made important expositions on the development of new quality productivity for many times, from the first proposal of "accelerating the formation of new quality productivity and enhancing the development of new kinetic energy", to the important understanding that "the development of new quality productivity is an inherent requirement and an important focus of promoting high-quality development", and then to the strategic deployment of "developing new quality productivity according to local conditions". Drawing a blueprint for development provides a fundamental basis for profoundly grasping the breakthrough direction of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, promoting high-quality development, and comprehensively promoting Chinese-style modernization, which is a new great theoretical creation of Xi Jinping's economic thought.

1. The "Newness" of the Theory of New Qualitative Productive Forces -- The Latest Theoretical Achievements of the Sinicization and Modernization of Marxism

Continuously promoting the Sinicization and modernization of Marxism is not only the valuable experience accumulated by our party after more than 100 years of struggle, but also the fundamental requirement for our party to promote the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation on the new journey. The theory of the new quality of productive forces is the new great theoretical creation of the Sinicization and modernization of Marxism, which profoundly answers the questions of what kind of productive forces should be upheld and developed in the new era, and how to uphold and develop the new productive forces.

On the question of what kind of productive forces should be upheld and developed in the new era. Productivity is the most active and revolutionary element to promote social progress, and the iteration of productivity is the endogenous engine for the development of human civilization. The entire historical process of human society is, in fact, a process of continuous development of the social productive forces from low to high and from backward to advanced. In the face of the fourth scientific and technological revolution that has emerged on the basis of the information revolution, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has paid close attention to and made scientific judgments on the productive forces represented by the tool systems such as big data, the Internet, cloud computing, blockchain and artificial intelligence. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "The development of new quality productive forces is an intrinsic requirement and an important focus for promoting high-quality development. "The productivity of the new era is the quality of advanced productivity that plays a leading role in innovation, gets rid of the traditional economic growth mode and productivity development path, has the characteristics of high technology, high efficiency and high quality, and conforms to the new development concept. This qualitative productivity is born by the revolutionary breakthrough of technology, the innovative allocation of production factors, and the deep transformation and upgrading of the industry, with the basic connotation of laborers, labor materials, labor objects and their optimal combinations, and the substantial increase in total factor productivity as the core symbol, characterized by innovation, the key is high quality, and the essence is a vivid interpretation of advanced productivity.

On the issue of how to uphold and develop new productive forces in the new era. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Scientific and technological innovation can give birth to new industries, new models and new kinetic energy, and is the core element of the development of new quality productivity. "In the new era, we must adhere to and develop new quality productive forces, strengthen scientific and technological innovation, especially original and disruptive scientific and technological innovation, and accelerate the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-reliance; Industrial innovation, vigorously develop the digital economy, promote the deep integration of the digital economy and the real economy, and build a digital industrial cluster with international competitiveness, etc.

2. The "quality" of the new theory of productive forces -- it has the theoretical quality of enriching and developing the Marxist theory of productive forces and the practical quality required to meet the development of the times

The theory of new qualitative productive forces has enriched and developed the Marxist theory of productive forces. The Marxist theory of productive forces holds that science and technology, as an important part of the factors of productive forces, promote the leap of productive forces. Marx emphasized: "The productivity of labour is determined by a number of circumstances, including the average proficiency of the worker, the level of development of science and the degree to which it is applied to the craft, the social integration of the production process, the size and efficiency of the means of production, and the natural conditions." Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out: "Now that the relations of production have changed, it is necessary to increase the productive forces. Without science and technology, productivity cannot be improved. Comrade Deng Xiaoping fully affirmed the important role of science and technology in contemporary social and economic development, and clearly pointed out that "science and technology are the primary productive forces." Standing at the new historical starting point of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, General Secretary Xi Jinping answered the questions of the times for the development of productive forces with firm theoretical consciousness, grand historical vision and far-reaching strategic considerations, and put forward a series of new ideas, new views and new assertions on the development of new quality productive forces, shining with the truth of Marxist productive forces theory, adhering to and developing the Marxist theory of productive forces, and taking "new quality productive forces" The important exposition of realizing this theory keeps pace with the times and writes a new chapter in the Marxist theory of productive forces in the new era.

The theory of new quality productivity is a theory that meets the needs of high-quality development practice in the new era. Different from the concept of traditional productivity, the new quality productivity involves new fields, high technology content, and high knowledge density, which is a new form and new quality derived from the continuous breakthrough and innovation of science and technology and the continuous upgrading and development of the industry under the condition of informatization and intelligent production, and the "quality" of its practical dimension is mainly reflected in high efficiency, high efficiency and high quality. With innovation as the first driving force, strategic emerging industries and future industries as the main carrier, and a high-level dynamic balance between new supply and new demand as the foothold, the new quality productivity promotes the deep integration of the innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain, and talent chain, accelerates the transformation of scientific and technological innovation achievements into real productivity, and forms high-efficiency, high-efficiency, and high-quality productivity through industrial iteration and upgrading and future development, enhances the sustainability of economic growth and social development, and achieves a high-level dynamic balance between supply and demand.

3. The "Production" of the New Quality Productivity Theory -- Focusing on the major strategic deployment of liberating the productive forces and adjusting the relations of production

The proposal of new quality productive forces has brought about not only a development proposition, but also a reform topic. Productive forces are the premise and foundation for the formation of production relations. The relations of production are established in accordance with the requirements of the development of the productive forces, and they must be adapted to the development of the productive forces. General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed: "The relations of production must be compatible with the requirements of the development of productive forces. To develop the new quality of productive forces, it is necessary to further deepen the reform in an all-round way and form a new type of production relationship that is compatible with it." To develop new quality productive forces, it is inevitably necessary to properly handle the problems between the two "productions" of emancipating the productive forces and adjusting the relations of production.

The development of new-quality productive forces requires deepening the reform of the economic system and the scientific and technological system, focusing on breaking through the blockages that restrict the development of new-quality productive forces, and shaping production relations that are suitable for new-quality productive forces. For example, we should strengthen the overall coordination of innovation policies, economic policies, and social policies, and open up a new track for economic development by strengthening the ability of independent innovation; the implementation of innovation policies needs to be combined with the market competition mechanism to continuously optimize the efficiency of resource allocation; the focus is on reconfiguring existing factors between different sectors, and improving total factor productivity by reallocating production factors from low-efficiency production subjects to high-efficiency production subjects, and so on.

The development of new quality productive forces also requires further opening up to the outside world at a high level and efforts to create a good business environment. It is never possible to build a "good car" behind closed doors, and the fusion of the optimal production factors to form a new quality of productivity is carried out on an international scale. This requires that we should not engage in innovation behind closed doors, but should adhere to openness and inclusiveness, strive to dismantle all barriers that hinder the development of productive forces, allow the flow of capital, technology, and talent more freely, and do a good job of coordinating the resources of various parties to promote the development of new productive forces, so as to promote the perfection and development of production relations.

Fourth, the "force" of the theory of new quality productivity -- based on the focus of proceeding from reality, establishing first and then breaking down, and adapting measures to local conditions

The development of new quality productivity is an intrinsic requirement and an important focus for promoting high-quality development. The embodiment of this important focus at the method level needs to grasp the problem of "bridge and boat" contained in it. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "The development of new quality productive forces is not to ignore and abandon traditional industries, but to prevent a rush and bubbles, and not to engage in a model." All localities should adhere to the actual situation, first establish and then break, adapt measures to local conditions, and provide classified guidance, selectively promote the development of new industries, new models and new kinetic energy according to local resource endowments, industrial foundations, scientific research conditions, etc., transform and upgrade traditional industries with new technologies, and actively promote high-end, intelligent and green industries. This important assertion contains the scientific methodology of "how to do" and "how to do better" in the development of new quality productive forces.

In developing new quality productive forces, we must persist in proceeding from reality, consider them thoroughly, and make decisions before we act. The new quality productivity is not only the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries, but also the cultivation and growth of strategic emerging industries and the forward-looking planning of future industries. The development of new quality productive forces does not mean ignoring or abandoning traditional industries, but it is necessary to adhere to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, not detaching from reality, rushing for quick success, not sticking to the old ways, and scientifically understanding and accurately grasping the relationship between the "new" and the "old", emerging industries and future industries and traditional industries.

To develop new quality productive forces, it is necessary to formulate development strategies that are in line with their own characteristics and fully stimulate endogenous motivation. The resource endowment, industrial base, and scientific research conditions are very different in various places, and the development process cannot be one-size-fits-all and step by step, but based on differentiated innovation capabilities and industrial needs, we should promote scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation as a whole, strengthen regional cooperation, realize resource sharing, complement each other's advantages, and jointly build an internationally competitive industrial cluster.

The development of new quality productivity should be classified and guided for different regions, different industries, and different enterprises to achieve precise policies. Different places have different stages of development, and the development of new productive forces will also show different regional characteristics. It is necessary to adopt corresponding measures and methods in light of the actual situation and specific problems, scientifically select the path and method of developing new quality productive forces, and concentrate efforts on "reality," "new," and "excellent."
