"Let young people really concentrate on scientific research"

  Yin Hejun, Minister of Science and Technology, said that among the national key R&D projects, more than 1,100 are currently led by young scientists under the age of 40. This number has reached more than 20% of the total. In many countries, major projects Young people can be seen everywhere in science and technology projects.

  Yin Hejun said that the cultivation of young scientific and technological talents should be regarded as a long-term strategic task, and we should continue to work hard to create a good scientific research environment for their growth and development.

“At work, we provide young people with opportunities, build platforms, and create an environment. In life, we help them solve their worries, especially key concerns such as salary, family life, and physical and mental health. Let young people really concentrate on scientific research and mobilize and stimulate their creativity."

  Yin Hejun introduced that in terms of investment, the national R&D investment in 2023 will exceed 3.3 trillion yuan, an increase of 8.1% over 2022, and the R&D investment intensity will reach 2.64%.

In terms of results, a number of major original achievements have been achieved in fields such as quantum technology, integrated circuits, artificial intelligence, biomedicine, and new energy.

The world's first fourth-generation nuclear power plant was officially put into operation, the C919 large aircraft was put into commercial operation, and the export growth rate of new energy vehicles, lithium batteries, and photovoltaic modules was gratifying last year.

Security System.

  “At present, the Ministry of Water Resources has fully decomposed and refined the key tasks deployed in the National Water Network Construction Plan Outline, implemented them one by one into specific engineering projects, and implemented them into the annual promotion plan one by one, and established and improved the coordination of engineering projects. We will actively work hard to promote the mechanism, pay close attention to implementation, promote the implementation of engineering projects in a scientific and orderly manner in accordance with laws and regulations, and ensure that the goals and tasks of national water network construction are completed as scheduled."

We must vigorously promote the spirit of scientists and outstanding entrepreneurial spirit, and encourage our scientific and technological workers to dare to take the most difficult road and dare to climb the highest. Mountains, dare to conquer the strongest fortress, and make due contributions to the construction of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation with our concrete actions." (End)
