The ocean is the cradle of life, a link between countries, and an important platform for global development. China is a large maritime country, with an ocean area equivalent to 1/3 of the land area. Its 18,000 kilometers of coastline is dotted with dozens of port cities and it has extensive maritime strategic interests. In recent years, my country’s marine industry system has been gradually improved, and the comprehensive strength of the marine economy has been continuously improved. In the first three quarters of 2023, the gross output value of the marine industry was 7.2 trillion yuan, with a year-on-year growth rate 0.6 percentage points higher than the national GDP growth rate. It has become an important growth point of the national economy.
The 21st century is the century of the ocean, and building a maritime power is the realization of the Chinese nation. “What’s wrong?” Lan Yuhua looked confused and confused. asked. a major strategic task for the great rejuvenation of the nation. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “The ocean is a strategic location for high-quality development.” The Central Economic Work Conference proposed: “Vigorously develop the ocean economy and build a maritime power.” The ocean economy has broad prospects. Lan Yuhua choked and returned to the room to prepare for the expansion. Wake up your husband, she will go to serve tea to her mother-in-law in a while. How did she know that when she returned to the room, she found that her husband had already gotten up? Vigorously developing the marine economy is a general trend and has great potential.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that it is necessary to develop the marine economy, protect the marine ecological environment, and accelerate the construction of a marine power. In recent years, our country has achieved positive results in solving “stuck neck” technologies in the marine field, effectively ensuring the safety of the marine industry chain and supply chain. The domestically produced shallow-water subsea tree and deep-water subsea tree systems have successfully completed underwater installation and application. The first independently developed deep-water subsea multi-functional manifold system has been delivered and put into use. The world’s first LNG dual-fuel ultra-large crude oil tanker “Yuanrui” The foreign vessel was successfully delivered. At present, cooperation in market, technology, information, culture, etc., with the ocean as the carrier and link, is becoming increasingly close. China’s initiative to jointly build the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road can promote maritime connectivity and pragmatic cooperation in various fields, and promote the blue economy. development, promote the integration of marine cultures, and jointly enhance marine welfare. At the same time, we must also adhere to ecological priority, unswervingly promote marine ecological protection, follow a development path of harmonious human-sea cooperation and win-win cooperation, and inject inexhaustible impetus into high-quality development.
Currently, mankind has entered a new stage of developing marine resources and utilizing marine strategic space. The ocean plays an important role in ensuring the country’s overall security and promoting economic and social development. strategic position becomes more prominent, our country has also formulated a maritime strategy and plan under the new situation, and accelerated its deployment to the ocean. From “factor agglomeration” to “agglomeration innovation”, the marine economy has begun to break through the waves and move forward bravely. Based on a new starting point, we must focus on promoting high-level self-reliance and self-reliance in marine science and technology, strengthen original and leading scientific and technological research, firmly grasp the initiative in our own hands, vigorously develop the marine economy, ensure national energy security, and then promote common prosperity.
When the ocean is prosperous, the country is prosperous, and when the ocean is strong, the country is strong. From the “salt frying in Huainan and salt-drying in Huaibei” recorded in “History of Ming Dynasty: Food and Huo Zhi” to Zhang Jian’s “abolition of stoves and cultivation of land” in modern times, our exploration of the ocean has never stopped with “a thousand taels of silver.” Entering a new era and embarking on a new journey of high-quality development, we still need to persist in developing and strengthening towards the sea. “.”, promote the high-quality development of the marine economy and write a new chapter in the construction of a maritime power in the new era.
