The city will prioritize the integrated circuit industry and focus on advanced design and manucturing of general and specialized chips.

An action plan for the development of the 5G industry will be implemented, Chen said in his government work report delivered at the ongoing annual session of the municipal peoples congress.

The city will also strive for steady progress in the building of the 5G telecommunications network, the mayor said, noting that 5G commercialization accelerated in 2022, which was evidenced by the 5G+8K video broadcasting of the International Horticultural Exhibition and FIBA Basketball World Cup.
