2015, the density of robots per 10,000 employees reaches36units,justoverhalfoftheworldaverageof66and<br />

far away from the peak of 478 in South Korea. The Chinese<br />

plans are, however, very ambitious and the China Program<br />

2025 is testimony to this. In practice, the stated aim for<br />

that date is to reach a high level of domestic production in<br />

all fields of technology: from aeronautics to medical, from<br />

computer science to railways through the marine, automotive<br />

and energy sectors. To achieve this goal, it is necessary<br />

to increase the performance of Chinese industry.<br />
