The Industrial Map of Chinese Manufacturing
We publish structural research industry by industry, at the granularity of individual industrial clusters, built on real factory samples. Every report cross-references two sources — public membership rolls from trade associations, and verified factories identified by Tianxia Gongchang. The full factory list lives on the main platform.
Jiangsu Automotive Manufacturing: Vehicle Base Layout, New-Energy Transition, and Parts Ecosystem
Jiangsu has become China's second-largest automotive manufacturing province, with vehicle production and parts supply advancing in parallel. This report maps its four major vehicle bases, traces the rapid rise of Changzhou's EV cluster, and assesses the challenges ahead.

Shandong Chemical Industry Research: The Triple Convergence of Refinery Consolidation, Leading Enterprises, and High-End Transition
Shandong has led China in chemical industry output for 32 consecutive years, but behind that scale lies a triple tension: the pain of independent refinery consolidation, the pressure of industrial park rationalization, and the urgency of upgrading to fine chemicals.

Shaanxi Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: A Dual-Track Industrial Landscape Built on Qin Medicine Heritage
Shaanxi's pharmaceutical manufacturing profile is shaped by Shaanxi Pharmaceutical Group anchoring distribution and production, Panlong Pharmaceutical holding a proprietary niche in orthopedics, Buchang's Shaanxi subsidiary and Xi'an Janssen each guarding their respective strongholds, and the "Qin medicine" tradition providing a raw material base that few inland provinces can match.

Tibet Non-Ferrous Metals: World-Class Resources, Minimal Smelting
Tibet holds world-scale copper deposits, Asia's largest lithium salt lake, and China's dominant chromite reserves — yet smelting and processing remain almost entirely absent from the region, a structural gap shaped by ecological constraints, infrastructure limits, and industrial policy.
