Export growth in February may exceed 50%, leading indicators such as PMI have remained above 50%, growth rates for electricity consumption and power generation have remained above 20%, and freight rate growth rates, such as daily rail freight. Above 10%. All this shows that Chinese companies have a great ability to adapt to changes in the situation, the resilience of China’s economy is very strong, and the resilience of China’s economic development is very strong. Therefore, we have the confidence, determination, strength and security to achieve this year’s goals and tasks.
From the perspective of the three major industries, he said that from the perspective of primary industry, after years of implementing the strategy of “reserve grain on land and store grain in technology,” China’s agricultural infrastructure conditions have improved. and greatly improved. Especially serious natural disasters, this year’s cereal production can be reached in more than 1.3 billion cats and the country’s basic rations can be self-sufficient.
From the secondary industry perspective, after years of implementing supply-side structural reforms and promoting high-quality development, emerging industries are on the rise and traditional manufacturing is accelerating its development towards high-end, smart and high-end industries. ecological. China has the advantages of complete industrial categories and complete systems. Increasingly prominent, the prospects are promising.
He Lifeng emphasized that the tertiary industry is currently more difficult, and there are relatively many difficulties, problems and blocking points, especially in hotel accommodation, passenger transport services, tourism and entertainment, and small, medium and micro enterprises will have more difficulties.

During the period of the “XIV Five-Year Plan”, we will comprehensively promote rural revitalization. What are the specific considerations for implementing rural construction activities?
Tang Renjian said that some places had some problems with rural construction some time ago, “I want to emphasize that in future work, we must understand that rural construction is built for farmers.” He said that in rural construction we must take care of the feelings of the peasants and reflect their needs, we must not be subjective, much less formalism or bureaucracy, we must do the good things well and do the practical things.
Tang Renjian pointed out that after eight years of hard work, the fight against poverty has been completed, the “carefree two and three guarantees” have been resolved, and the rural infrastructure and social landscape have changed greatly. But at present, most of the rural infrastructure is only in the administrative village, and there are still many points stuck and blocked in the homes below the village. He presented three aspects of the work to be done in the next step of rural construction.
The first aspect is to make a good plan. According to the requirements of the Central Party Committee and the State Council, this year’s county-level spatial and spatial planning will be basically completed. On this basis, a practical village plan with “integration of multiple plans” will be prepared. The reason to emphasize viability is to take care of the characteristics of the field and the needs of farmers, to facilitate the improvement of their production and life.
The second aspect is building the hardware. The third aspect is to do a good job with the software. Strive to improve the conditions of rural education, health care and pensions and achieve higher levels of security
Regarding the issue of food security, Tang Renjian said that for a large country with a population of 1.4 billion, the issue of food is always the top priority of governance. China’s food security is guaranteed and we can sustain the rice bowls of the Chinese people.
Regarding the issue of seed “agricultural chips”, Tang Renjian said that it is necessary to fight for a radical change in the seed industry and strive to achieve significant progress in about ten years.
