1. Overview of China's Industrial Market Industries
1.1 Current Development Status of China's Industrial Market
In recent years, China's industry has continued to develop rapidly by relying on advantages such as the demographic dividend and seizing opportunities such as industrial transfer, becoming the 'world factory'. In 2010, China surpassed the United States to become the country with the highest added value in global manufacturing. By 2019, China's manufacturing added value reached 26.9 trillion yuan, accounting for 28.1% of the global total, maintaining its position as the world's largest manufacturing country for eleven consecutive years. From 2016 to 2019, China's industrial added value grew by an average of 5.9% annually, far higher than the world's industrial average annual growth rate of 2.9% during the same period. It is expected that China will continue to play an important role in the world's industrial field in the future.
1.2 Added Value of China's Industrial Market
From 2016 to 2019, China's industrial added value increased from 24.54 trillion yuan to 31.71 trillion yuan, with an average annual growth rate of 5.9%, far exceeding the world's average annual industrial growth rate of 2.9% during the same period; in that year, the main business income of industrial enterprises above designated size in China reached 105.78 trillion yuan. Advanced manufacturing and large-scale manufacturing were once the development supports for powerful countries such as the UK, the US, Germany, and Japan. In 2019, the added value of manufacturing in the US accounted for 11.1% of GDP, Germany's was 19.4%, Japan's was 19.5%, and the UK's was 8.6%. Compared with developed countries, China's added value of manufacturing as a proportion of GDP was still as high as 27.2% in 2019 after more than a decade of continuous decline.
In 2020, affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, industrial added value slightly declined to 31.31 trillion yuan. However, the main business income of industrial enterprises above designated size in China still achieved growth, reaching 106.14 trillion yuan. The '14th Five-Year Plan' particularly emphasizes 'maintaining the basic stability of the manufacturing sector's proportion', which also conveys the signal that manufacturing, as the leading sector of the national economy, is the backbone of the society's basic material production and industrial innovation.

Note: Since 2017, there have been incomparable factors between the main economic indicator data of industrial enterprises above designated size nationwide and the previous year's data. The main reasons are as follows: (1) According to the statistical system, the survey scope for industrial enterprises above designated size is adjusted regularly each year. Each year, some enterprises reach the scale standard and are included in the survey scope, while others exit due to reduced scale, as well as changes such as newly established enterprises, bankruptcies, and suspension (closure) of businesses. (2) Strengthening statistical law enforcement has led to the clearance of enterprises found not to meet the statistical requirements for industrial enterprises above designated size during inspections, and relevant bases have been corrected according to regulations. (3) Enhancing data quality management has eliminated duplicate statistical data across regions and industries.

Industrial Internet is an industrial and application ecosystem formed by the comprehensive integration of the Internet, new-generation information technology, and industrial systems. It is a key comprehensive information infrastructure for the intelligent development of industry. Industrial Internet platforms are an extended development of enterprise industrial cloud platforms. They build more precise, real-time, and efficient data collection systems by overlaying new technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, and blockchain on traditional enterprise cloud platforms. They construct industrial enabling platforms that include collection, storage, integration, analysis, and management functions, realizing cross-application of industrial equipment, experience knowledge, and big data, and ultimately increasing the output value of industrial enterprises.
The architecture of China's industrial Internet platform system is mainly aimed at the digitalization, networking, and intelligence needs of the industrial field. It constructs a service system based on device information collection, storage, and analysis to support the ubiquitous connection, elastic supply, and efficient allocation of industrial resources through an industrial cloud platform.
