论现代中药产业的发展趋势

现代消费需求的拉动和现代科技的推动所形成的合力是中药产业演化的根本原因, 本文对于中药产业由此产生的分化形式、特征,以及值得重视的新的分化生长点均进行了准确概述和深入分析,提出国际天然药物市场的增长决不会使中国的中药产业普遍均等地受益,需要培育从国家到企业不同层次而又互联互动的技术创新体系;国家的政策意义在于:中药产业不能长期处于经验科学和传统工业的“襁褓”之中,必须把其引向现代工业文明,培育新的产业生长点,填补产业链上的空白,而企业应从中敏锐地捕捉新的商机。对于中药国际化问题,本文认为:伴随着中药业向国外的发展和跨国公司向中药业的渗透,未来中药国际化有可能出现一个高速增长期,但中国本土的中药产业仍将面临着技术水平和运行规则的双重约束,要获得国际竞争力决不是轻易能够实现的。本文提出:未来的中药业有可能成为有国际资本参入,有跨国公司经营,同时面向国际与国内两个市场的中药业,而且国内市场也将被国际化,中国本土企业必须对这个趋势保持高度的警醒,积极应对这种挑战,获得并维持国际竞争力。

Development Trends of Modern TCM Industry

The dynamic force behind the industrialization of TCM consists of current demand and the development of science and technology. The paper presents precise outlining and profound analysis into the consequent segmentation and characteristics, as well as the most noticeable and novel resourceful segmentations. The growth of international natural medicinal products will not benefit the TCM industry equally. In order to obtain the most from the increase of the market, it is essential to establish a technological innovation system that includes units at the state and corporation levels and the interactions between. Therefore, the logical state policy should lead TCM from the cradle of empiricist scientist or traditional industry to modern industrial civilization, cultivate novel growing point, and make up the missing links in the industry chain, while the corporations should spot opportunities in the trends. A foreseeable tide of the internationalization of the industry will result from the development TCM manufacturers and the involvement of international enterprises. However, it is difficult for domestic corporations to obtain enough competitive power under technological and regulatory obligations. In the future, TCM industry will develop into one involving international capital and transnational enterprises, and meanwhile, serving both domestic and international markets simultaneously. Eventually, the domestic market will merge into the international. It is advisable for domestic manufacturers to keep alert to the trends and challenges, gain and maintain international competitiveness.
