Research On The Export Competitiveness Of China's Manufacturing Industry From The Perspective Of High-Quality Development

China is a veritable manufacturing country.Manufacturing exports accounted for more than 90% of merchandise exports for a long time,making a considerable contribution to China's foreign economy's continued prosperity.However,in recent years of practical observations,some deep-seated problems restricting China's manufacturing industry's development have gradually become prominent.The 19 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the Chinese economy has shifted from a stage of rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development.As the core content of China's economic structure,the manufacturing industry's export competitiveness profoundly impacts China's economic development and international division of labor status.In this context,improving export competitiveness and achieving high-quality development has become the core task of the current manufacturing industry.Therefore,this article focuses on the following questions: Do China's current manufacturing and manufacturing exports meet the inherent requirements of "high-quality development" ? What factors drive the improvement of China's manufacturing export competitiveness? In the current complex economic and trade environment at home and abroad,how to scientifically guide the manufacturing industry to improve its export competitiveness and ultimately achieve the high-quality development of manufacturing industry?This article will be divided into seven chapters for detailed discussion,as follows:The first chapter discusses the research background and significance of this article,clarifies the research paradigm,research content,and main methods,and defines the main concepts involved in the thesis.The second chapter is the theoretical basis and literature review.This chapter condenses the theoretical context of this article around the theory of international division of labor,sorts out relevant researches on the factors affecting export competitiveness,summarizes the measurement methods of export competitiveness,sorts out relevant researches on the development of China's manufacturing industry in recent years,consolidates the research foundation of this article and expands the research perspective.The third chapter studies China's manufacturing and manufacturing exports' status quo.This chapter starts with the research on the development of China's manufacturing industry and studies and analyzes manufacturing exports' current characteristics and the international competitive environment facing them.The study found that China's manufacturing exports have made significant achievements,but still face low competitiveness of high-end products,increased international competition,and increased trade frictions.The fourth chapter is the calculation and analysis of China's manufacturing industry's export competitiveness.This chapter measures China's manufacturing industry's export competitiveness as a whole and sub-industries from two dimensions of scale and quality.The study found that China's manufacturing industry's overall scale competitiveness has shown a fluctuating upward trend,while the overall quality competitiveness has stagnated in recent years.Besides,the traditional statistical model has enlarged China's manufacturing industry's export scale.Value-added trade statistics are more suitable for the current international division of labor;the evolution of export competitiveness of subdivided manufacturing industries is quite different,but few industries have both export scales and quality competitiveness.Furthermore,quality-competitive industries have further confirmed the manufacturing industry's structural problems.In summary,China's manufacturing exports are still far from the objective requirements for high-quality development.The fifth chapter is one study of the factors influencing the manufacturing industry's export competitiveness.By constructing a theoretical model of economic complexity and technological innovation affecting export competitiveness and verifying it through a panel model based on manufacturing industry data,the study found that technological innovation,economic complexity,and the synergy between the two have a positive impact on the scale competitiveness and quality competitiveness of China's manufacturing exports.The sixth chapter investigates one of the factors affecting the manufacturing industry's export competitiveness.This chapter is based on the new development pattern of "dual cycle",by constructing a theoretical model of economic policy uncertainty and vertical specialization level affecting export competitiveness,and verifying through panel data model that economic policy uncertainty hinders the improvement of export competitiveness.The level of vertical specialization can promote the improvement of export competitiveness.However,under the combined influence of the two,it can still promote China's manufacturing export competitiveness;that is,deepening the vertical specialization level can offset policy uncertainty's negative impact.The seventh chapter is conclusions and recommendations.Based on summarizing this article's research conclusions,it proposes countermeasures and suggestions to promote the manufacturing industry's high-quality development and enhance export competitiveness from three aspects: accelerating technological innovation,deepening international labor division and forming a new pattern of the whole opening.Overall,this article may form innovative points in the following two aspects.In the first place,innovation at the theoretical level.First of all,among the many factors that affect export competitiveness,this article focuses on the impact of technological innovation and economic complexity,constructs theoretical mechanism models for empirical research,and further expands the research on factors affecting manufacturing export competitiveness.Secondly,the economic policy uncertainty,the level of vertical specialization,and the export competitiveness of the manufacturing industry are integrated into a new theoretical framework for research,which explains the dilemma between the deepening of the international division of labor and the changes in the economic and trade environment under the construction of the "dual cycle" new development pattern.Next in importance,innovation at the practical level.In on hand,based on the objective demand for high-quality development,this article comprehensively uses multiple indicators to measure the changing trend of China's manufacturing export competitiveness from the two dimensions of scale and quality,which will help further to understand the export competitiveness of the manufacturing industry and expand the research margins at the same time.Provide an essential reference for follow-up research.In the other hand,based on the multiple conclusions of the complete text,combined with the main context of China's economic development and manufacturing transformation and upgrading,such as the construction of a new "dual cycle" development pattern,this article puts forward countermeasures and suggestions to promote high-quality development of the manufacturing industry and enhance competitiveness in the future.
