  1. China’s High-Tech Industry and Its Trade with the U.S. Jiyao BI, Ph.D. Institute for International Economic Research (Beijing China) September 26, 2007 *The views expressed in this presentation are solely those of the presenter. It is not meant to represent in anyway the views of the governmental departments of PRC or its individual officials.

  2. R&D Activities in China’sHigh-Tech Industry

  3. 1. Development of China’s High-Tech Industry • China began to adopt encouraging policies in hi-tech industry in the 1980s, with an aim to promote technological progress and accelerate the development hi-tech industry. • From 1995 to 2005, the share of hi-tech sector in manufacturing output had increased from 8.5 to 15.8 percent. • The hi-tech product trade has also expanded significantly. In 2006 the export of hi-tech products accounted for 29 percent of China’s total export, while the import accounted for 31.2 percent. • Hi-tech product exports have become an important component of China’s exports, while hi-tech imports have become an important source of China’s technological advancement.

  4. 2. R&D Activity in China’s High-Tech Industry • Despite rapid quantity expansion, the innovation capability of China’s companies is still weak, with R&D input being relatively low. • According to China’s first national economic census in 2004, only 17,000 companies have conducted R&D activities among 270,000 ones above the scale with sales volume exceeding 5 million yuan or US$650,000 . • Only 3536 companies past the test that both R&D intensity and ratio of VAT to sales volume are higher than 4% and 2%, respectively, which includes 2930 Chinese enterprises and 606 foreign-funded ones. • In some universally acknowledged hi-tech sectors, China’s R&D intensity is lower than 1 percent. • The above situation indicates that most of Chinese companies rely on existing or import technologies in manufacturing, with less incentives for R&D due to various reasons.

  5. 3.Ratio of R&D Expenditure in Four Sectors Sources: National Economic Census 2004. The enterprises’ sales are more than RMB5 million, about USD650 ,000.

  6. 4. Patents Applied by Some Sectors in China Sources: China Statistics Yearbook on High Technology Industry 2006

  7. 5. Invention Patents Held by Some Sectors Sources: China Statistics Yearbook on High Technology Industry 2006

  8. 6. Some Conclusions • The amount of patents in the electronic and communication equipment manufacturing sector has been significantly larger than the other hi-tech sectors, especially in recent years, while the amount of patents in aerospace manufacturing sector has been relatively stable. In addition, the amount of patents in medical and pharmaceutical products has begun to increase since 2001. • 从图中我们可以发现电子及通信设备制造业拥有的发明专利数量明显高于其它几个高技术制造业，并且近些年来增量的变化非常显著；航空航天制造业拥有的发明专利一直比较稳定，波动不大；医药制造业和电子计算机及办公设备制造业自2001年开始不断增加。表中各制造业的专利申请的变动与其所拥有的发明专利数量的变动基本一致。

  9. II. Features of China’s High-Tech Product Exports

  10. 1. Exports of China’s Hi-Tech Products • Since 2000 the export growth in hi-tech industry has been much faster than that of total exports except in 2005. • 2000年以来，除了2005年以外，高科技行业的出口增长率要远远快于总出口增长率。

  11. Foreign-funded enterprises have accounted for more than 80 percent of China’s hi-tech product exports since 2000, with an increase of 10 percent compared with 1995. • 图形显示统计的高技术产品的出口中，外资企业出口占了所有出口比重的80%以上，比1995年提高了将近10个百分点。 ATP exports by foreign invested enterprises

  12. 2. China-US Trade in Hi-Tech Products • The U.S. turned into deficit in APT trade from 2000, and its imports from China have become an important driving force. • 从2002年开始，美国开始出现与世界其他国家高技术产品贸易逆差现象，其中，中国对美国高技术产品的出口是构成这一逆差的主要驱动力量。

  13. Since 2002 China’s hi-tech product exports to U.S. has increased rapidly, with foreign-invested enterprises accounting for a large share. In contrast, Chinese enterprises still suffer deficits with the US in hi-tech trade. • 从2002年开始，中国出口美国高技术产品迅速上升，其中，外资企业占据主导地位，其次是合资企业；相比之下，中国国有企业、集体企业和民营企业并没有构成对美国高技术产品贸易的大幅顺差，相反还存在贸易逆差。 Trade balance in ATP between China and U.S.

  14. 3. R&D activity Foreign-funded Enterprises • Despite lower export share, the ratio of R&D expenditure in Chinese enterprises has been consistently higher than foreign-funded ones, even in electronic and telecommunication equipment manufacturing sector, in which foreign-funded enterprises account for 83.5 percent of total sales • 无论是总研发投入还是一些高科技领域，内资企业的研发投入要高于外资企业高，尤其是在电子及通信制造业这样一个外资占了全部行业销售值83.5%的行业，内资总研发投入还是要高于外资企业。 R&D expenditure proportion between Chinese and foreign invested enterprises Sources: National Economic Census. The enterprises’ sales are more than RMB500million, about USD600,000

  15. 4.What causes the contradiction? Value added in some industries(Valued tax divided by sales ) • Factor endowment determines that China’s hi-tech industry is at the low-end of value chain, mainly concentrating in processing and assembling segments. The value added in some hi-tech sectors is similar to traditional industry such as textile. Considerable exports of foreign-funded enterprises are processing trade with low value added. • 自然禀赋决定了中国的高技术行业的发展还是处于加工组装环节，一个重要的表现就是一些高技术行业的附加值比较低，其附加值和一些传统产业，例如纺织产业类似。外资企业的出口中，相当一部分是低附加值的加工贸易。 Sources: National Economic Census, 2004

  16. Among the enterprises with R&D activities, the average ratio of R&D expenditure of the enterprises is 4.81%, lower than 5% criteria for the qualified new and high-tech enterprises. And the number of enterprises with R&D activities is much less than that of recognized new and high-tech enterprises. 有研发活动的企业的平均研发强度（即研发支出占销售总额的比例）为4.81%，低于5%的对高新技术企业的认证标准。有研发行为的企业的数远远低于已经认定的高技术企业数。 Sources: National Census

  17. Electronics unit value index of US exports to and imports from China (current US dollars) Source: joint working paper on US-China Trade in Advanced Technology Products • The unit value of electronic products of Sino-US trade reflects the backward situation of China in technological advancement to some extent. In 2006, the unit value of US exports to China is about 200 times of US imports from China. • 中美之间进出口的电子产品的单位价值也在一定程度上说明了目前中国目前的科技发展情况。2006年，中国出口美国产品单位价值和从美国进口产品的单位价值相差了将近200倍。

  18. 5. Conclusion • The unit value difference of electronic products shows that China still remains in the processing and assembling stage and the level of assembled products is much lower than that of same products made in U.S. • 从电子产品的价格差异说明中国目前不仅处在加工组装环节，而且所组装产品档次要远远低于美国同类产品。 • Foreign-funded enterprises have much lower R&D expenditure than Chinese ones, but played a significant role in China’s hi-tech product exports, indicating their R&D activities are conducted abroad. • 外资企业的研发要远远低于内资内资企业，但是在出口中扮演了重要的角色，这说明外资企业的出口产品的研发并不是在中国完成的。 • With higher R&D expenditure than foreign-funded enterprises, the Chinese enterprises have not become the main force of hi-tech product exports, indicating that the R&D capability remains weak in Chinese enterprises and their hi-tech products are not competitive on international markets. • 内资企业研发高于外资企业，但是并没有成为高技术产品出口主力，说明国内研发能力较弱，高科技产品并没有在国际市场形成竞争力。

  19. III. Further Discussion

  20. 1.What causes China’s economic growth? • Despite its rapid economic growth in recent years, China has not shifted its growth from extensive to intensive pattern, with high energy consumption sector making a large contribution to the growth. • High energy consumption and mining sectors generally have low R&D input, but they perform better than downstream sectors, accounting for a large share in total industrial profits.

  21. Ratio of R&D expenditure in different industries(%,divided by sales)

  22. 2.China is still on the road of industrialization • According to our calculation, capital formation, labor input and technology advancement contributed 83.6%, 13.9% and 3%, respectively, to the growth of industrial value added from 2000 to 2005, implying that industrial growth has been propelled by factor input and technological advancement has not become a main driving force for economic growth. • 根据外经所的计算表明，从2000年到2005年，工业增加值的增长量中，资本形成、劳动力投入和技术进步的贡献率分别是83.6%、13.9%和3%。要素投入是工业增长的主要动力，技术进步并没有成为推动经济增长的主要动力。 • In sum, China’s growth still remains extensive, and there is a long way to go for China to transform itself into a knowledge-based economy. • 中国的增长还是粗放式的增长，中国要进入知识经济时代，还有很长的一段路要走。
