The "Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting High Quality Development in the Central Region in the New Era" proposes to comprehensively plan and guide the development of industrial clusters (bases) in the central region, and to expand and strengthen advanced manufacturing industries. At present, advanced manufacturing clusters such as Wuhan Optics Valley and Hefei Sound Valley in China are constantly forming and becoming important engines for promoting the rise of central China. The central region has a good foundation for developing advanced manufacturing clusters. The central region has always been an important manufacturing base in China, and the development of advanced manufacturing has a good industrial foundation. The central region is rich in resource endowment, with provinces such as Shanxi, Henan, and Jiangxi possessing China's richest coal resources, non-ferrous metals, and various rare metal mineral resources, providing high-quality raw material supply for advanced manufacturing industries. In addition, the central region has superior geographical conditions, connecting the east to the west and the south to the north. It is an important transportation hub in the country, providing convenient circulation for the development of advanced manufacturing industry. The population and education resources in the central region are concentrated. In terms of quantity, there are approximately 365 million people in the six provinces of the central region, accounting for 25.83% of the national population. At the same time, prestigious universities such as the University of Science and Technology of China and Wuhan University have provided abundant talent and technological support for the development of advanced manufacturing industry. The development of advanced manufacturing clusters in the central region has obvious latecomer advantages. The theory of latecomer advantage suggests that latecomer regions can adopt and learn from the mature plans, technologies, equipment, and organizational structures of the first mover regions, and learn from experience and lessons to avoid unnecessary detours, thereby achieving overtaking on curves and bringing latecomer advantages. Since the reform and opening up, the eastern region has taken the lead in developing with its advantages in labor and resources, forming significant advantages in terms of technological innovation ability and industrial competitiveness. However, in recent years, with the rising cost of factors such as labor, land, and raw materials, as well as multiple factors affecting them, the contradiction between resource and environmental constraints in the eastern region has become prominent, and the pressure for industrial upgrading is high. The central region can precisely rely on its advantages in industry, resources, location A good foundation in talent and other aspects can undertake industrial transfer in the eastern region, forming a latecomer advantage. The policy system provides a solid guarantee for advanced manufacturing clusters in the central region. Since the first proposal of "promoting the rise of the central region" in the "Government Work Report" in 2004, the development of modern equipment manufacturing and high-tech industries has been an important part of it. Entering the new era, a series of national policies have been introduced to promote high-quality development in the central region. The central provinces are also continuously formulating local plans, with the development of advanced manufacturing clusters as the core content. For example, Henan Province took the lead in launching the "Henan Province Advanced Manufacturing Industry Cluster Cultivation Action Plan (2021-2025)", proposing the implementation of six major actions: innovation strong chain, digital integration chain, transformation extension chain, diversified stable chain, investment supplement chain, and ecological smooth chain, with the goal of forming a batch of trillion level advanced manufacturing industry clusters and a hundred billion level modern industrial chain.
