Figure, promote the green, low-carbon and sustainable direction of the industry in a reasonable and orderly manner. The wool textile industry standard system is also constantly improving, continuing to lay a solid foundation for the high-quality development of the wool textile industry.

Building a new pattern to promote high-quality development of the wool textile industry

In 2022, the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed “accelerating the construction of a new development pattern and striving to promote high-quality development” and “we must insist that science and technology are the primary productive force, talent It is the first resource and innovation is the first driving force. We must thoroughly implement the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, the strategy of strengthening the country through talent, and the strategy of innovation-driven development, open up new areas and new tracks for development, and constantly create new momentum and new advantages for development.” Liu �Qiang pointed out that this has important guiding significance for promoting the high-quality development of the wool textile industry. To this end, he put forward suggestions for the future development of the industry based on the actual development of the wool textile industry.

First, wool textile enterprises must be self-confident, upright and innovative, actively absorb the advanced concepts of the international wool textile industry, actively connect with the fashion industry, and while pursuing the manufacturing quality of wool textile products, enhance design concepts, process innovation, and brand competitiveness. Becoming a high-quality representative of clothing and apparel products in domestic and foreign markets has increased people’s awareness of wool textile products.

Second, wool textile companies must persist in innovation. Innovation is the first driving force for development. To adhere to high-quality development, we must thoroughly implement the innovation-driven development strategy and take the path of innovative development that activates intrinsic vitality. We must fully understand the huge role of scientific and technological innovation and regard innovation-driven development as a future-oriented strategy. a major strategy.

Third, the raw materials in the wool textile industry have high value. To allow good raw materials to release high value, homogeneity must be avoided and innovation becomes a consensus in the wool textile industry. At present, the leading enterprises in the wool textile industry have clear product positioning, constantly improve their innovation capabilities, carry out innovative cooperation with colleges and universities, introduce and cultivate innovative talents of different echelons, grasp the latest international and domestic scientific research development trends, and unite upstream and downstream players in the supply chainFashion Trends, establishing innovation chains and networks in an all-round way, strengthening the company’s dominant position in innovation, and product development has been highly recognized by domestic and foreign markets. Following the example of these enterprises, the entire industry should actively explore new ideas and develop innovatively.

Regarding the newly released “Strategic Plan for Expanding Domestic Demand (2022-2035)”, Liu Jiaqiang believes that this will bring new opportunities to the wool textile industry. The wool textile industry is an important industry that meets the people’s growing needs for a better life. China is the largest manufacturer of wool textile products. Wool textile products are representatives of high quality and high value in the field of clothing and apparel. With the improvement of people’s living standards, the domestic sales of wool textile products are showing a growing trend, and export and domestic sales are gradually balancing. He proposed that in the future, the industry must grasp the development strategy of expanding domestic demand, organically combine expanding domestic demand with deepening supply-side structural reform, enhance the resilience of the supply system, and form a higher efficiency and higher quality input-output relationship. Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern is an inevitable requirement to adapt to my country’s new development stage, an inevitable choice to create new advantages in international cooperation and competition, and a major measure to implement new development concepts. It is an inevitable trend for the wool textile industry to promote high-quality development.

Liu Jiaqiang finally pointed out that in 2023, we will build a new pattern with a new mission and expand new paths with new innovations, thereby accelerating the high-quality development of the wool textile industry.
