In the latter half of the 20th century, especially in the two
decades after the initiation of reform and opening to the outside world,
China's industry has developed at a high speed. Between 1952 and 2000, the
average annual growth rate of industrial increments reached 11.5 percent,
as calculated in constant prices. Of this, the average annual growth rate
between 1979 and 2000 came to 11.6 percent. In 2001, the combined assets
of all the state and large non-state industrial enterprises amounted to
13,418.4billion yuan, and the nation's industrial added value came to 4,260.7
billion yuan, an increase of 8.9 percent over that of the previous year.
In the past five decades and more, major industrial products
have increased by dozens of or even a hundred times. Since
1996, China has been in the lead in the production of steel,
coal, cement, farm-use chemical fertilizers and television
sets.

In 1978, China had only the public-ownership economy, state-owned enterprises
making up 77.6 percent and collectively-owned enterprises, 22.4 percent.
The policy of reform and opening to the outside world has given extensive
scope to the common development of various economic sectors. The individual
and privately-owned industrial enterprises and enterprises with foreign,
Hong Kong, Macao or Taiwan investments have developed rapidly. In 2000,
the total output value of state-owned and state-owned holding industrial
enterprises made up 48.3 percent of the total output value of the state
and large non-state industrial enterprises, their industrial added value
59.2 percent, their employees 55.5 percent, and their total profits 56.1
percent, the total industrial output value of collectively-owned enterprises
made up 15.2 percent of the total industrial output value of the state
and large non-state enterprises; their industrial added value 13.9 percent,
and their employees 16.6 percent; the industrial output value of the enterprises
with foreign, Hong Kong, Macao or Taiwan investments accounted for 27.1
percent, their industrial added value 22.5 percent, and their employees
14.7 percent; and the total industrial output value of individual and
privately-owned enterprises made up 9.4percent, and their employees 13.2
percent.
