Manufacturing industry in Chengdu has made great progress and set up a relatively well-developed industrial system after developing for 30 years. Chengdu now is the new industrialization demonstration base, and also the base of some important industry such as aviation, aerospace, advanced materials and new energy.
However, as the strategic intersection of “One belt One Road”, Chengdu must aim to upgrade the manufacturing.
成都制造业经过多年的发展，取得了长足进步，并已形成较为完备的产业门类和工业体系。成都现已是中国新型工业化产业示范基地以及中国重要的航空、航天、新材料、新能源产业基地。然而它作为国家实施“一带一路”战略的交汇点和支撑点、还必须瞄准中国制造的制高点，推动成都制造业的发展。
The meeting was devided to the blow sections.Why Southwest China?Benefits from One Belt One Road, rail transits to Europe is very convenient, takes 2 weeks to Poland and another 2 days to any European cities.为什么选择西南地区？   “一带一路”政策使得通往欧洲的铁路运输非常便利，运送到波兰仅需14天，到欧洲的其他城市也只用16天时间。
