厉以宁在10月27日的《北京日报》上撰文指出,结构调整比单纯追求经济总量更重要。举个例子。1840年鸦片战争时,中国GDP是世界第一的,要比英国大很多,但是中国的经济结构不行。具体来说,英国大约在1770年左右进行第一次工业革命,到鸦片战争时,英国GDP构成中,主要为蒸汽机、机器设备以及铁轨、铁路机车、车厢等工业品,纺织业中使用的也是机器。而当时中国的GDP完全是由农产品跟手工业品构成。同时,英国的交通工具已经是轮船和火车了,而中国当时仍然是帆船和马车。 Li Yining said in an article in the Beijing Daily on October 27 that restructuring is more important than simply pursuing the economic output. for example. In the Opium War of 1840, China’s GDP was the highest in the world, much larger than that of Britain, but its economic structure was not. Specifically, the United Kingdom conducted its first industrial revolution around 1770 or so. During the Opium War, the UK’s GDP consisted mainly of steam engines, machinery and equipment, as well as industrial products such as railways, railway locomotives and wagons, and also used in the textile industry machine. At that time, China’s GDP was entirely composed of agricultural products and handicrafts. In the meantime, the British means of transport are already ships and trains, while China was still a sailing vessel and a wagon.
