Entering the BYD factory's automobile production line, the Ubiquitous WalkerS1 humanoid robot moves forward flexibly to sort materials and install parts. In Huaqiangbei, Shenzhen, it only takes one hour to equip such a robot with the necessary electronic components. The close connection between engineers and the supply chain enables robots to quickly transition from blueprints to reality. Turning to the Huangpu Comprehensive Bonded Zone in Guangzhou, a drone loaded with bonded lenses took off and landed precisely at a processing enterprise 13 kilometers away 30 minutes later. The intelligent logistics model of "low altitude+bonded" is accelerating the escort of advanced manufacturing industry. Fresh practices from different industries are constantly expanding the depth and breadth of the integration and development of Guangdong's manufacturing and service industries. On February 24th, the first working day after the Spring Festival, Guangdong held the "New Year's First Conference" for the fourth consecutive year, focusing on the "coordinated development of manufacturing and service industries" and sounding the horn of the "15th Five Year Plan" opening year. This theme carries on the past and opens up the future, not only in line with the themes of the previous three conferences - "Creating a New Guangdong", "Mutual Promotion of Industry and Technology for Double Strength", and "Building a Modern Industrial System", but also fully demonstrates Guangdong's strategic determination to draw a blueprint to the end and solidly promote high-quality development. Faced with the turbulent waves of global industrial competition, Guangdong can only accelerate the synergy and symbiosis between manufacturing and service industries, and accelerate the upgrading of industries to new heights, in order to forge a "steel backbone" that can withstand the storm and stir up a magnificent spring tide of high-quality development. Economists generally believe that the more developed the economy, the higher the proportion of the service industry, especially the productive service industry, in GDP, and the closer its integration with the manufacturing industry. Taking mobile phone manufacturing as an example: a mobile phone sells for 9000 yuan, and manufacturers in the manufacturing process can only earn 3000 yuan of it, with the rest flowing into research and development, design, brand sales, and other links. Looking at the world, emerging and future industries such as artificial intelligence and robotics are competing fiercely, and the wave of "re industrialization" is surging in various countries. The United States has successively introduced high-intensity industrial policies and even wielded the "big stick" of tariffs to promote the return of manufacturing industry; Germany launches the "Made in Germany" initiative, investing heavily in areas such as digitalization and Industry 4.0; Japan has proposed to achieve "Society 5.0" through the Internet Industry Strategy and will increase its support budget for chips and artificial intelligence by nearly three times to $7.9 billion in the 2026 fiscal year. The essence of this' competition 'is to use the coordinated development of manufacturing and service industries as a lever to hedge against industrial hollowing out and seize the high ground of competition. From 2020 to 2025, the proportion of added value of China's productive service industry to GDP has increased from 30.3% to 34.4%. However, compared with the generally high level of 40% -50% in developed Western countries, there is still considerable room for growth. Promoting the deep integration and development of manufacturing and service industries is an important measure for China to follow the trend of industrial development and promote sustained economic growth. In this regard, Guangdong has a strong foundation and outstanding advantages, and should take the lead and lead the way. As a major manufacturing province, Guangdong has all 31 major categories of manufacturing industries, and the operating income scale of industrial enterprises above designated size has consistently ranked first in the country. Not long ago, Guangdong's ultra high definition video industry achieved a historic leap, becoming the tenth trillion yuan industrial cluster in the province. Guangdong has always been the "champion" of China's service industry. By 2025, the added value of the service industry in the province will exceed 8.4 trillion yuan, accounting for more than one tenth of the national total, ranking first in the country for 41 consecutive years. The number of accounting firms, law firms, tax accounting firms, and inspection and testing institutions will all rank first in the country, and the service system is very complete. Nowadays, in order to accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system with more international competitiveness, Guangdong must further enhance the level of coordinated development between manufacturing and service industries, so that this "best partner" can unite stronger forces and expand broader development space. The theme of "New Year's Day" in the first year of the 15th Five Year Plan is aimed at not only providing direction for industrial optimization and upgrading, but also a strategic move for Guangdong to launch a charge towards the high-end of the global value chain. Building bridges and shipbuilding "lays a solid foundation for the manufacturing industry to become a" good home ". Being a leader in the manufacturing industry is the root and soul of Guangdong's industrial development, and it is a strategic basis that we must always adhere to. The coordinated development of manufacturing and service industries is the" bridge "and" ship "to achieve" being a good home ", and an effective path to promote the manufacturing industry to move towards the high-end of the global value chain. This' bridge 'is rooted in the thick soil of manufacturing on one end, and connects diverse services such as technology research and development, brand marketing, and financial logistics on the other end; This' ship 'carries Guangdong manufacturing towards the high-end of the value chain, setting sail for the global market. In the process of building a modern industrial system with more international competitiveness, facing the bottleneck of "large but not strong" manufacturing industry and low degree of integration between the two industries, Guangdong, the largest province in the economy, has a clear idea: to build bridges and pave the way, and to go global in shipbuilding. Last year, Guangdong issued the "Several Measures to Promote the Deep Integration and Development of Manufacturing Industry and Productive Service Industry", proposing to accelerate the innovative development of service-oriented manufacturing, promote the transformation of manufacturing industry from solely manufacturing oriented to "manufacturing+services", and shift from simply selling products to selling "products+services". Based on the new starting point of the first year of the 15th Five Year Plan, Guangdong firmly shoulders the responsibility of being at the forefront, setting an example, and shouldering the heavy burden, accelerating the deployment and promotion of this work. The recently released Guangdong "15th Five Year Plan" proposal further proposes to implement the action of expanding and improving the service industry, promoting the deep integration of modern service industry with advanced manufacturing industry and modern agriculture. This year's provincial government work report proposes to promote the servitization of manufacturing and the manufacturing of service industries, and to promote and support the optimization and upgrading of the entire industrial system through the upgrading of the service industry. The "First Session of the Chinese New Year" will further consolidate consensus and promote the service industry to continue empowering the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry with unprecedented depth and breadth. Looking at the front lines of industries across the province, the manufacturing and service industries are advancing hand in hand and resonating with each other, unleashing full vitality. In the world's first new energy vehicle "lighthouse factory", artificial intelligence, big data, and robots work together to increase production efficiency by 50%, reduce manufacturing costs by 58%, and a new car is produced every 53 seconds. At the Smart Ceramic Tile Factory of Marco Polo Holdings Co., Ltd., fully automated production lines collaborate with digital systems for precision. From Qingyuan to the United States, more than 10 factories have been connected into a network through intelligent control systems, and per capita output has doubled compared to five years ago. After sales service is the 'last mile' of industrial intelligence globalization. The "Equipment Maintenance Assistant Intelligent Agent" developed by Shugen Internet Co., Ltd. relies on three major engines: intelligent diagnosis, intelligent translation, and intelligent retrieval, allowing engineers to locate "lesions" faster, reducing fault diagnosis time by 50% and improving maintenance efficiency by 30%. It also helps Guangdong Manufacturing and Chinese Manufacturing to overcome overseas after-sales service pain points. From empowering the manufacturing industry to improve quality and efficiency, to helping Guangzhou and domestic products go global, the integration of the two industries is stimulating new momentum and opportunities, creating a powerful engine for Guangdong to cultivate new quality productivity and seize future industrial highlands. The "National Artificial Intelligence Application Pilot Base (Mobile Terminal Direction)" jointly built by Shenzhen and Dongguan, and led by China Unicom, has established a nationwide full stack technology capability system through the dual city linkage of "Shenzhen Innovation+Dongguan Manufacturing", focusing on building the AI core base of China's intelligent terminal field and solving the key technology bottleneck problem. With application scenarios covering a massive number of terminals such as smartphones and drones, the base has currently served over 50000 intelligent terminal enterprises, with a global terminal market share of over 50%, and has become the pilot base with the widest reach of the national audience. The more the "bridge" is built, the stronger it becomes, and the more stable the "ship" travels. Guangdong will rely on the strong power of the integration of the two industries to break through the waves and sail towards a broader industrial blue ocean. Bi directional empowerment helps Guangdong seize the opportunity for coordinated development between manufacturing and service industries, which is not a one-way empowerment of manufacturing by the service industry, but a two-way pursuit and mutual achievement of the two industries. On the one hand, only by deeply embedding the "tentacles" into the forefront of advanced manufacturing and other industries can the service industry truly become "knowledgeable" and provide stronger support for the manufacturing industry. It has served more than 600000 manufacturing enterprises all year round and helped build 12 "beacon factories"... In recent years, the Meiqing Industrial Internet Platform created by Midea Group has provided digital solutions for enterprises in automobile manufacturing, electronic information and other industries, helping many enterprises to solve the dilemma of "not daring to turn, not turning" in transformation. It is precisely because the platform relies on Midea's over 50 years of manufacturing experience that it is able to quickly enter more than 50 segmented industries in just a few years. It naturally has the "genes" of manufacturing and understands manufacturing better. Since embarking on the path of digitization in 2012, we have accumulated successful experiences and paid a lot of trial and error costs. We hope to share these valuable experiences and lessons, so that other enterprises can avoid detours. ”Jin Jiang, President of Meiyun Zhishu, said. On the other hand, the upward trend of the manufacturing industry will also force the service industry to accelerate towards specialization and the high-end of the value chain. We grew up in Shenzhen and have been growing in practical application scenarios. ”Guan Jian, Vice President of Shenzhen Youai Zhihe Robot Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Youai Zhihe"), said. Youai Zhihe uses robots to provide industrial logistics, inspection and operation solutions for various industrial customers. In the eyes of the key, Guangdong's strong industrial foundation has brought a massive number of application scenarios, and various service solutions can quickly verify commercial feasibility, which in turn "forces" enterprises to continuously improve services and accelerate technological updates and iterations. The dual empowerment of manufacturing and service industries is continuously giving rise to new models and formats, enabling Guangdong to seize the initiative in the global industrial competition track. Li Jiangfan, a professor of management at Sun Yat sen University, believes that the development of productive service industries cannot be separated from the blind idling of service targets. It should be targeted and integrated with the industries it serves; Especially, the service industry should not be opposed to the manufacturing industry, and the development of manufacturing or productive service industries should not be one-sided. The practice in Guangdong has proven that only through long-term interaction and cooperation can the manufacturing and service industries cultivate a high degree of "tacit understanding" and achieve a multiplier effect of "1+1>2". Amidst the surging sound of the "dual wheel drive" engine, a more dynamic and competitive modern industrial system is accelerating its rise on the land of Lingnan. (New Society)
