       By vigorously promoting the relocation and agglomeration of the printing and dyeing chemical industry, and implementing comprehensive industrial governance, the central urban area of Shaoxing, Zhejiang - Yuecheng District has freed up a large amount of land, energy, and other development factors in recent years, supporting the rapid development of the digital economy, leading the industry to comprehensively improve quality and efficiency, and finding a clear path.

       Recently, Shaoxing SMIC Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was listed on the Science and Technology Innovation Board of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, making it the first independently cultivated listed enterprise on the Shaoxing Integrated Circuit "Ten Thousand Acres and One Hundred Billion" platform.

    The integrated circuit industry in Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City, led by chain leading enterprises such as SMIC, Changdian, and Haowei, has gathered nearly 100 upstream and downstream enterprises. 

    Since the reform and open, industries such as textile, printing and dyeing, and chemical industry in Yuecheng have developed and grown first, with distinct characteristics of the "block economy". However, traditional development methods have gradually encountered bottlenecks. In 2018, according to the deployment of the Shaoxing Municipal Party Committee and Government, Yuecheng firmly promoted the relocation and agglomeration of printing and dyeing and chemical enterprises across counties and districts, and carried out inefficient land management for all industrial sectors throughout the district, freeing up and activating nearly 10000 acres of land and a large amount of energy consumption indicators.

    Facing high-quality development, Yuecheng will accelerate the development of the digital economy by combining the trend of industrial transformation with its own advantages. With integrated circuits as the cutting edge, it will successively introduce key projects from leading enterprises, and open up regional IDM models for design, manufacturing, testing, and application in characteristic process segmentation fields such as MEMS devices, power semiconductors, wide bandgap semiconductors, and image sensors, solidly embedding the industrial division of the Yangtze River Delta and the global industrial network.

       In 2022, the leading industry scale of integrated circuits in Yuecheng exceeded 50 billion yuan, attracting 11 integrated circuit industry projects, and the agreed investment amount exceeded 30 billion yuan; In the first quarter of this year, the value-added growth rate of the manufacturing industry, the core industry of the digital economy in Yuecheng, reached 18.4%.

       The construction of the China Japan South Korea Semiconductor New Material Equipment Industrial Park in Yuecheng is booming. Zhou Peiqi, General Manager of China Japan South Korea Semiconductor New Materials Equipment Industrial Park Xinyue New Materials (Shaoxing) Co., Ltd., introduced that the industrial park will build 11 garden style industrial factories, which are expected to be completed and accepted in July 2024.

       Intelligent transformation of production lines and three-dimensional warehouses, research and development of intelligent mattresses, and construction of a 5G industrial internet platform with independent intellectual property rights... Nearly 80 million yuan has been invested in a series of digital applications, driving Xilinmen Furniture Co., ltd. to significantly improve quality and efficiency. In the first quarter of this year, the company achieved a revenue of 1.467 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.47%; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 61.6315 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.3%.

       In Yuecheng, the digital economy not only serves as a powerful emerging industry "doing addition", but also deeply integrates with traditional industries and widely empowers "doing multiplication".

       After the formation of scale effect in the integrated circuit industry, Yuecheng reshaped the industrial ecology and urban pattern with the digital economy, and systematically laid out the "One Valley, Thousand Stations, and N Points" system. The "Shaoxin Valley" radiation drove the integration of several cities and implanted the "pan semiconductor+" industry; Consolidate digital integration with nearly 4000 5G base stations, achieving full coverage from cities to administrative villages; Promote the integration of data and reality through "one enterprise, one policy" and promote the digital transformation of the entire industrial chain.

       The reporter learned that in recent years, Yuecheng has accelerated the development of digital infrastructure such as 5G and industrial internet, driving the digital reconstruction of enterprise production methods, product design, service extension, etc., providing new application scenarios, releasing the vitality of information technology elements, and continuously spreading the digital and intelligent integration of "5G+industrial internet".

       At the Innovation and Intelligent Manufacturing Center of Shaoxing Geili Sports Leisure Products Co., Ltd., five technicians in the cutting workshop controlled two digital cutting machines, and the PVC cloth used to make fitness pads moved slowly and cut accurately on the CNC workbench.

       "Digital transformation not only reduces production costs, but also supports real-time interaction with customers, grasps order progress and product specifications, and supports small batch and personalized customization," said Mao Maxing, director of Geili Sports (Shaoxing) Innovation and Intelligent Manufacturing Center.

       Not long ago, a special training course jointly organized by Shaoxing Wenli University, Shaoxin Laboratory, and Changdian Integrated Circuit (Shaoxing) Co., Ltd. officially began. This is the first lesson for students in the "Long Telegram Class" of the School of Mathematics, Science and Information at Shaoxing University of Arts and Sciences after signing the contract.

       Yao Bo, Deputy Director of the Local Service and Cooperation Department of Shaoxing Wenli University and a core member of the MEMS research cluster at Shaoxing Core Laboratory, introduced that based on the regional and application-oriented educational positioning, the college has delivered more than 80 corresponding professional talents to the local integrated circuit industry since the beginning of this year.

       We have pioneered the "no review" mechanism for young talents, innovatively implemented the talent recommendation system, implemented pilot reforms for the evaluation of intermediate professional titles, implemented the "double appointment system" for high-level talents, and carried out the "order system" training model for talent introduction. For six consecutive years, we have launched a special train for talent recruitment in spring and autumn... Professional talents are an important driving force for the development of the digital economy in the urban areas. Anchoring a new track, seizing the commanding heights, using advanced and precise services as the starting point, further gathering high-end elements such as technology and talent, accelerating the cultivation of the digital economy and expanding industrial space.

       The reporter learned that Yuecheng is actively building a third-generation semiconductor industry ecosystem that integrates five chains, namely "industry chain, innovation chain, talent chain, service chain, and capital chain", around the wide bandgap third-generation semiconductors represented by silicon carbide, gallium nitride, gallium oxide, etc., and has successfully applied for the first batch of Zhejiang Provincial Future Industry Pilot Zone Cultivation and Creation List.

       Xu Jun, Director of the Management Committee of Shaoxing Binhai New Area and Secretary of the Yuecheng District Party Committee, stated that closely following the three main directions of "climbing higher, advancing new, and improving efficiency through integration", Yuecheng has solidly promoted the "No.1 Development Project" of digital economy innovation and improvement, using the digital economy as a starting point to expand increment and activate inventory, effectively promoting industrial quality and efficiency improvement, and accelerating high-quality development.
