中國高技術產業有較高的銷售收入,且增長速度較快,而增加值和利潤,特別是利潤的絕對額和增長速度卻均不高;中國的高技術產業企業數是呈下降趨勢的。中國高技術產業空間發展格局的突出特點是地區分佈的集中度較高,主要集中在東部和東南沿海地區。在行業上,東部地區的醫藥製造、電子及通信設備製造、電子電腦及辦公設備製造、醫療設備及儀器儀錶製造等方面佔有絕對優勢,西部地區僅在航空航天器製造業略具優勢。中國高技術產業分佈的非均衡態還沒有出現減弱的趨勢。中國高技術產業的發展現狀要求中國既要借鑒國外高技術產業發展的成功經驗,又要依據具體情況選擇適合本國國情的高技術產業發展道路。
With high sales income, and rapid growth rate, but low add-value and profit of high-technology industry in China; the quantity of high-tech enterprises is decreasing; the evident characteristic of regional structure of high-tech industry is the high amassing degree, east and south-east. For the industry of east, the medicine manufacture, electron and communication manufacture, computer and office appliance manufacture, medical appliance and instrument and meter manufacture are all dominant position in the whole country, but the aviation and spaceflight is more superiority in the west. The trend of harmonious development is not appearing yet. In China, the high-tech industry should be developed along the optical road, and drawing on the experiences abroad.
