Technological innovation empowers high-quality development (observation of big data, new leap in data theory)

  A few days ago, the National "Thirteenth Five-Year" Science and Technology Innovation Achievement Exhibition was successfully held, highlighting a number of major achievements my country has made in the fields of basic frontiers, strategic high technology, and people's livelihood technology.

  The total R&D expenditure of the whole society has increased from 34.869 billion yuan in 1995 to 2.44 trillion yuan in 2020, and the full-time equivalent of R&D personnel has increased from 751,700 in 1995 to 5.0919 million in 2020... a set of data , Showing the historic achievements and historic changes that have taken place in my country's scientific and technological undertakings.

  Over 6%

  Proportion of basic research in R&D investment

  A new leap in scientific and technological innovation capabilities

  New China's science and technology business started almost from scratch.

From the sound of the clarion call for marching toward science in the early days of the founding of New China, to the conclusion that science and technology are the primary productive forces in reform and opening up; from the full implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, to the promotion of the construction of an innovative country, my country’s scientific and technological strength accompanied The economic development has grown at the same time, embarking on a new journey from a technological power to a world technological power.

  "The spallation neutron source device is like a'super microscope'. It is an ideal probe for studying the microstructure of matter. It is an internationally recognized large-scale comprehensive research platform that complements the advantages of synchrotron radiation sources." National "13th Five-Year Plan" technological innovation At the Achievement Exhibition, the staff explained in detail the major technological infrastructure to the public.

Since my country's spallation neutron opened to the outside world in 2018, the performance of the device is highly efficient and stable. It reached the design index of 100 kilowatts one and a half years earlier than the original plan, further enhancing the original innovation capability.

  Basic research is the source of the entire scientific system.

my country's basic research expenditures have increased from 2.895 billion yuan in 1998 to 150.4 billion yuan in 2020.

With the support of the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the National Key Basic Research and Development Program (973 Program), my country has made major breakthroughs in basic research fields such as quantum science, iron-based superconductivity, and dark matter particle detection satellites.

During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, my country systematically promoted basic research and major technological breakthroughs, and achieved a new leap in scientific and technological innovation capabilities. For the first time, basic research accounted for more than 6% of R&D investment; made achievements in iron-based superconductivity, stem cells, synthetic biology, etc. Original results, high-speed railways, basic software research and development, etc. have made positive progress, and a number of national weapons such as "Chang'e 5" and "Struggle" have emerged.

  The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, efforts will be made to strengthen basic research and original innovation, support the development of emerging, unpopular and weak disciplines, promote interdisciplinary integration and interdisciplinary research, and support the vast number of scientific researchers to bravely venture. Innovative "no man's land".

At the same time, the innovation chain will be deployed around the industrial chain, the industrial chain will be deployed around the innovation chain, and new science and new technology will be used to help promote the creation of new industries and new economies.

  Break through 270,000

  high-tech enterprises

  High-quality development surging new momentum

  From the successful trial production of my country’s first electronic tube computer in 1958, to the world’s first synthetic bovine insulin in 1965, and now the Beidou navigation satellite global network, new energy vehicles, artificial intelligence and other accelerated applications, scientific and technological achievements are getting faster and faster. Enter the main battlefield of the economy and society and form new momentum for high-quality development.

  Technological innovation optimizes the industrial structure, improves the quality of supply, and upgrades more "Made in China" to "Made in China".

In recent years, major projects have led the development of key industries by leaps and bounds, and significant results have been achieved in areas such as mobile communications and new drug creation.

In 2020, the number of high-tech enterprises nationwide will exceed 270,000.

  Regional innovation is an important pillar of the construction of an innovative country and the foundation and support of the national innovation system.

In 2020, the national high-tech zone's gross output value will reach 13.6 trillion yuan, contributing 13.3% of the national GDP with a land area of ​​less than 3‰, and cultivating more than 100,000 high-tech enterprises, accounting for 36.3% of the country.

  From January to August this year, the National High-tech Zone, relying on innovation-driven, demonstrated strong economic development resilience, achieving operating income of 29.5 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 21.9%, and the vitality of innovation and entrepreneurship continued to be strong.

  The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that the next step will focus on supporting the development of the real economy and promote the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements on a large scale. The new model fosters new growth momentum.

  2.13 million items

  Technology transactions of scientific and technological achievements in the past 5 years

  Innovation and entrepreneurship form a new ecology

  In Zhashui, Shaanxi, small fungus makes a big industry.

With the help of academician Li Yu, researcher Zhao Yafu and other science and technology commissioners, the local area has established a fungus technology research and development center, a fungus big data center and other innovation platforms, driving 30 demonstration bases and 300 professional cooperatives, and achieving an annual output value of nearly 300 million fungus industry Yuan.

  Talent is the first resource for technological innovation.

Adhering to the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education and strengthening the country through talents has enabled my country's scientific and technological innovation team to continue to grow.

my country is planning to improve the scale and quality of the scientific and technological talent team. The total number of R&D personnel continues to grow. The full-time equivalent of R&D personnel has increased from 751,700 in 1995 to 5.0919 million in 2020.

  Behind the rapid development of science and technology talents, it is also inseparable from deepening the reform of the science and technology system in key areas, forming a new ecology of innovation and entrepreneurship.

Accelerate the implementation of the burden-reduction action of scientific researchers, and the "breaking of the four uniques" has been fully implemented in key areas, which has greatly released the innovative vitality of scientific researchers.

In the past five years, 2.13 million scientific and technological achievements across the country have achieved technology transactions, which is 1.52 times that during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period.

  The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Science and Technology stated that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, a new round of scientific and technological system reform will be launched to improve the innovation ecosystem, focusing on improving the overall effectiveness of the innovation system, focusing on stimulating the vitality of talents.

It will accelerate the establishment of a scientific and technological talent evaluation system that conforms to the law of scientific research and the law of talent growth, and cultivate more world-class leading scientific and technological talents and innovative teams.

The system of "revealing the rankings" will be the top priority of the reform of the "14th Five-Year" science and technology plan.
