History of industrial development in Hong Kong [20 points]

The history of industrial development can be traced back to the beginning of19th century, when it was a small fishing village. With the establishment of British colony and the growth of international trade, it has gradually become an important port city. Industrial development was relatively small at first, mainly based on manual manufacturing and light industry. At the beginning of the 20th century, our industrial development began to accelerate. During the First World War, many foreign factories closed or moved to other places because of the war in Europe, so they became important manufacturing bases. In particular, the textile and clothing industry developed rapidly during this period and became one of the main industries. During World War II, it was destroyed by Japanese occupation and war. However, after the war, it was given the opportunity to rebuild and gradually resumed industrial production. With the recovery of social economy and the growth of international trade, industry has also been further developed. In the 1960s, our industry was further diversified and developed. In addition to the textile and clothing industry, electronics, plastics, hardware, toys and other industries have also begun to rise. In order to promote industrial development, we have provided a series of financial and legal support measures to attract more investment and foreign companies. In 1980s, with the implementation of reform and opening-up policy in China, it became the economic gateway and important manufacturing center of China. With the influx of foreign capital, industrial development has been further accelerated. Especially in the manufacturing and electronics industries, it began to enjoy international reputation. At the same time, financial, trade and logistics services have also developed rapidly, providing support for industrial development. In the 1990s, with the rapid rise of China's mainland industries, our industries began to face competitive pressure. Some manufacturing industries have gradually moved to the mainland, but emerging industries still maintain a certain scale and influence. Our industry is gradually developing in the direction of high technology and high added value, focusing on technological innovation and brand building. Entering the 2 1 century, China's industrial development is facing new challenges and opportunities. Facing the wave of globalization and globalization, we will continue to promote the upgrading and transformation of industrial structure, strengthen scientific research innovation and personnel training, and lay the foundation for future industrial development. Generally speaking, our industrial development has experienced a transformation from a small fishing village to a manufacturing center, and has experienced many challenges and opportunities. In the international urban economy, industrial development has always been closely related to the global economy, and it is also influenced by the economic development of the mainland. In the future, with the closer and deeper cooperation with the mainland, it will bring new opportunities and vitality to our industrial development.
