China Economic Review: Science and technology policies must be solidly implemented and strongly support high-quality economic development

Core View:

Mr. Zifang, a commentator of China Economic Net, believes that any road to a bright future is not straight, and the process of breaking through core technologies will definitely be accompanied by pain.

However, we must see that the "stuck neck" list is a task list for breakthroughs and self-reliance.

This road is very long, but as long as you stick to it in the right direction, you will surely achieve your goal.

  Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and innovation is the primary driving force for development.

The recently held Central Economic Work Conference pointed out when planning for next year's economic work that science and technology policies should be firmly implemented.

It is necessary to implement a three-year action plan for the reform of the scientific and technological system, and formulate and implement a ten-year plan for basic research.

Strengthen the national strategic scientific and technological strength, give full play to the role of national laboratories, reorganize national key laboratories, and promote the reform of scientific research institutes.

Strengthen the main position of enterprise innovation and deepen the integration of production, education and research.

Improve and optimize the science and technology innovation ecology, and form a solid scientific research style.

Continue to carry out international scientific and technological cooperation.

  This year, we achieved a good start to the "14th Five-Year Plan", with frequent news of scientific and technological innovation-flying over deep space, Tianwen-1 successfully detected the fire; building the Palace of Dreams, the Shenzhou spacecraft continued to soar; reaching a new high, "artificial sun" "Continuous "burning"... The vast number of scientific and technological workers have bravely climbed, and scientific and technological innovation has provided strong support for building a new development pattern and promoting high-quality development.

The "2021 Global Innovation Index Report" released by the World Intellectual Property Organization shows that my country's comprehensive ranking of innovation capabilities has risen to the 12th place in the world.

  There is no doubt that people are the most critical factor in technological innovation.

Hard power and soft power, in the final analysis, depend on the strength of talents.

Under the leadership of a group of scientists such as Qian Xuesen, Zhu Guangya, Guo Yonghuai and others, during the arduous pioneering period of "Two Bombs and One Star", the vast number of scientific and technological personnel were self-reliant and overcoming difficulties, creating the world-renowned "heavy weapon of a great power".

Since the beginning of this year, the special clean-up action of "papers, titles, academic qualifications, and awards only" has continued to advance, and the "Opinions on Reforming and Improving the Management of Central Financial Research Funds" has been issued. Periodic, high-value original research, and strive to achieve more major breakthroughs in international frontier research and key core technology research.

  The implementation of the policy is the "gold".

At present, my country's scientific and technological strength is moving from the accumulation of quantity to the qualitative leap, from the breakthrough of point to the improvement of system capability.

Whether it is "implementing the three-year action plan for the reform of the science and technology system", or "playing the role of a national laboratory," or "deepening the integration of production, education and research," for the relevant departments, it is necessary to be stable, pragmatic, solid, and step by step. , And we must forge ahead, work hard, face up to difficulties, and be good at combining reality to promote work creatively.

For the majority of scientific and technological workers, it is necessary to adhere to facing the frontiers of world science and technology, facing the main economic battlefield, facing the major needs of the country, facing the people’s life and health, and pressing ahead with technologies that can make rapid breakthroughs and solve problems in a timely manner. The technology that has worked for a long time is deployed in advance.

  Of course, any road to a bright future is not straight, and the process of breaking through the core technology will definitely be accompanied by pain.

However, we must see that the "stuck neck" list is a task list for key breakthroughs and self-reliance.

The older generation of scientists used to fight with their bare hands in the international blockade. Today, China has the conditions and confidence to break through key core technologies, both in terms of scientific and technological strength and economic foundation.

Technology is progressing and industry is changing. In this process, young people are everywhere to show their talents. There are always opportunities to realize their ambitions. We are confident that the items in the task list will be ticked off one by one.

  The core technology cannot be obtained by alms, nor can it be bought with money.

The high-quality development of China's economy requires independent innovation of core technologies, which is inseparable from the tens of thousands of scientific and technological workers and market players who are fighting on the front line.

This road is very long, but as long as you stick to it in the right direction, you will surely achieve your goal.
