After the Spring Festival, it is a critical period for enterprises to resume production. All walks of life are working hard, and labor is busy all over the country. Enterprises grab orders, recruit talents, job seekers learn skills, re-work, governments build platforms, promote employment... The surge of people and the roar of machines intertwined into a symphony of spring, reflecting the steady and positive development trend of China's economy at the beginning of the year.
The labor demand in key industries continues to heat up, outlining a clear picture of high-quality development. Less than a week after the New Year, the resumption rate of Suzhou's equipment manufacturing and electronic information industries exceeded 90%; overseas orders of manufacturing companies in Luoyang, Henan continued to continue, and employment demand rose; a traditional enterprise in Changxing, Zhejiang suddenly updated 56 high-end equipment, invested in and built new factories, and used brand new digital production lines... These leaps and turns to confirm the vigorous development of new quality productivity at the front line of the industry.
The warm current of policies resonates with the spring water of the market, building a solid "ballast stone" for stable employment. 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country have fully launched the exchange of old consumer goods before the Spring Festival holiday, effectively stimulating consumption. People are benefiting, and enterprises are busy taking orders. As construction starts in the new year, mobile phone and home appliance manufacturers quickly fill up the production progress bar and continue to release technical talent positions to the outside world. Data released by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security shows that online and offline recruitment activities will continue to be held during the Spring Festival to help workers return to work early and enterprises start work steadily. From mid-January to February 11, a total of 22,000 recruitment activities of various types have been held nationwide, with 15 million jobs issued; 15,000 special trains, special planes, and chartered flights of migrant workers were issued, and 370,000 workers were transported.
The "skill leap curve" of workers and the "transformation and upgrading curve" of industries are forming a historic intersection. Under the AI boom, the news that "the boss of Yiwu, Zhejiang uses DeepSeek to sell goods" has become a hot topic. When workers master AI technology, they can easily achieve language leap and leap in Yiwu, the world supermarket. Not only AI, but at present, my country has become the world's largest and most complete talent resources country with a large number of skilled workers, accounting for more than 26% of the total number of employed people, and over 60 million high-skilled talents. The rapid development of technology and the increasing number of skilled workers are becoming an important thrust for the economic ship to move forward. This structural optimization of human capital is the deep code for the long-term improvement of the economy.
The spring tide hits the shore, and those who strive for the oar are the first. When the smart factories in the Yangtze River Delta receive global orders 24 hours a day, when the trains from the Western Land-Sea New Channel set off, and when the flow of people and information in emerging industrial parks in the central region are surging, what we see is not only the confidence of the Chinese economy, but also a vibrant China driven by innovation and talent. This spring, the roar of machines is better than the green willows and red flowers. China's economy is nurturing a more magnificent harvest picture on the fertile soil of high-quality development.
