*Figures for 2014 to 2020 were taken from previous publications.
The figures, which come from the China Association of the National Shipbuilding Industry, differ somewhat from those figures given by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, which again differ slightly from figures given by international bodies. However, this does not affect the overall picture drawn by these figures.
