Based on the 2022 “Building China’s Technological Foundations” series report, the Chinese Xinchang (information technology innovation) industry has entered a rapid growth phase since 2020, with policy support expanding market space and increasing demand from government and enterprise users.

Mid‑scale (中口径) estimates show the combined PC and server market reaching 1,433 billion yuan, of which city‑level markets account for 359 billion yuan and county‑level markets 1,074 billion yuan. The county‑level market is projected to be three times larger than the city‑level market.

Detailed calculations assume a 1:3 personnel‑to‑device ratio for government agencies and institutions, yielding 2,122 ten‑thousand PCs (530 city‑level, 1,592 county‑level) and a PC market value of 955 billion yuan (239 city‑level, 716 county‑level). Server market values are 358 billion yuan (89 city‑level, 269 county‑level).

Further breakdown by measurement scope (small, medium, large) gives total market sizes of 925 billion yuan (small), 1,433 billion yuan (medium), and 2,629 billion yuan (large) for PCs and servers combined.

By tier (city vs. county) and product category, the medium‑scale market includes 955 billion yuan for PCs (239 city, 716 county) and 478 billion yuan for servers, with specific allocations for operating systems, CPUs, middleware, and databases.

The 2022 market size is projected at 16,689.4 billion yuan, while the 2021 digital economy reached 47.6 trillion yuan (43.5% of GDP). The Xinchang industry is expected to grow to 37,011.3 billion yuan by 2027.
