China's three industrial divisions are:
Primary industry: agriculture (including planting, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery).
secondary industry: industry (including extractive industry, manufacturing industry, production and supply of electricity, gas and water) and construction industry. The industrial revolution is often triggered by the revolution of manufacturing industry, which leads to comprehensive changes in the three industries.
tertiary industry: other industries except primary and secondary industries. According to the actual situation in China, the tertiary industry can be divided into two parts: one is the circulation department, and the other is the service department. It can be divided into four levels:
The first level: the circulation department (logistics), including transportation, warehousing, post and telecommunications, wholesale and retail trade, and catering.
second level: departments that serve production and life, including finance, insurance, geological exploration, water conservancy management, real estate, social services, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery services, transportation auxiliary services, comprehensive technical services, etc.
the third level: departments that serve to improve the scientific and cultural level and the quality of residents, including education, culture and art, radio, film and television, health, sports and social welfare, scientific research, etc.
the fourth level: departments that need to serve the public, including state organs, political party organs and social organizations, as well as the army and police.
classification of resource intensity
This industrial classification method is divided according to the different resources invested by each industry. According to the relative density of labor, capital and technology in various industries, industries are divided into labor-intensive, capital-intensive and technology-intensive industries.
1. labor-intensive industries. Refers to an industry that mainly relies on a large number of labor for production, but has low dependence on technology and equipment. Its measure standard is that wages account for a large proportion in the production cost compared with equipment depreciation and research and development expenditure. Generally speaking, the current labor-intensive industries mainly refer to agriculture, forestry, textiles, clothing, toys, leather, furniture and other manufacturing industries. With the development of technology and the application of new technology and equipment, the technology and capital intensity of labor-intensive industries in developed countries are also increasing, and they are gradually differentiated from labor-intensive industries. For example, the food industry is classified as a capital-intensive industry in developed countries.
2. capital-intensive industries. Refers to the industry in which the cost of capital accounts for a large proportion compared with the cost of labor, and the amount of fixed capital and working capital occupied by each worker is high. At present, capital-intensive industries mainly refer to steel industry, general electronic and communication equipment manufacturing, transportation equipment manufacturing, petrochemical industry, heavy machinery industry, electric power industry and so on. Capital-intensive industries are mainly distributed in basic industries and heavy processing industries, and are generally regarded as an important basis for developing the national economy and realizing industrialization.
3. Technology-intensive industries. Refers to an industry that relies much more on technical and intellectual factors than on other factors of production in the production process. At present, technology-intensive industries include: microelectronics and information product manufacturing, aerospace industry, atomic energy industry, modern pharmaceutical industry, new material industry and so on.
At present, technology-intensive industries, such as microelectronics and information product manufacturing, are developing rapidly and become the leading industries that drive the economic growth of developed countries. Therefore, it can be said that the development level of technology-intensive industries will determine a country's competitiveness and economic growth prospects.
