Abstract: After the 2008 financial crisis, reality prompts people to reflect on the  
traditional theoretical frameworks of economics and the practical experiences based on  
macro-control and “demand management.” The new reality also stimulates innovative  
efforts to “connect theory with practice” and leads academia and decision-makers to pay  
unprecedented attention to “supply management” regulation and structural supply-side  
reforms. Based on the theoretical innovation of the “new supply-side economics,” this paper  
systematically discusses China’s supply-side reform and its related issues from four levels—  
the innovation of closely connecting theory with practice, the problem-oriented innovation  
of re-making the momentum system under the new normal, the innovation for overall and  
long-term goals based on comprehensive planning and systematic engineering, and the  
innovation of institutional supply centered on reforms and modernization.  
Keywords: supply-side reform, economic growth momentum, institutional supply
