Editor's note: CGTN has launched a special series of animated shorts called China By Numbers, in celebration of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, showcasing the country's remarkable achievements in consumer spending, per capita income growth, the marine economy, agricultural modernization, and the recent clean and low-carbon transformation.

Over the past 75 years, China's marine economic strength has continued to improve and move towards a higher quality of development.
