China News Service, Changsha, March 8 (Xiang Yipeng) "Four major laboratories" have all entered physical operation, and the construction of "four major scientific installations" has steadily advanced... Hunan's "4+4 Science and Technology Innovation Project" "The construction has been fruitful and the development has accelerated."

As of the end of 2023, the science and technology innovation project has completed a cumulative investment of more than 8 billion yuan, gathered more than 1,600 high-level talents, implemented 190 major national and provincial science and technology projects, and achieved 58 major scientific research results.

　　Last year, Hunan actively seized the commanding heights of industry, technology, talent, and platforms, and supported and led high-quality development with high-level scientific and technological innovation.

Data from the Hunan Provincial Department of Science and Technology show that the province’s total R&D investment exceeded 117.5 billion yuan, with an investment intensity of 2.41%, ranking 9th in the country; the number of high-tech enterprises increased by more than 2,000, with the total number exceeding 16,000; The provincial technology contract turnover was nearly 400 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than 50%.

　　In recent years, Hunan has integrated national resources to provide scientific services in a wider range and for more users, striving to include more platforms in the national layout.

Focusing on the "greatest player in the country" and "the big plan of the province", the province has concentrated on promoting the "4+4 science and technology innovation project", strengthened the construction of high-energy platforms, and significantly improved its ability to source scientific and technological innovation.

　　Last year, the "four major laboratories" - Yuelushan Laboratory, Xiangjiang Laboratory, Yuelushan Industrial Innovation Center (Laboratory), and Furong Laboratory successively established the first council and expert committee.

Yuelushan Laboratory has achieved a number of major scientific and technological achievements that are leading the country and the world in the fields of rice, rape, vegetables, pigs, fish, camellia oleifera, etc. Since last year, for the first time, the "Grain Liangyou 8022" cultivated by the Hunan Hybrid Rice Research Center has been selected. "Refreshing the world record of super rice yield of 1,251.5 kilograms in a single season; the 26 major projects laid out by Xiangjiang Laboratory have achieved a number of original and leading results. In January this year, the multi-modal AI large model, industrial operating system, and metaverse were released It has developed 7 original products in cutting-edge fields, and established a "four-computing-in-one" industrial alliance with 35 leading companies to promote the digital intelligence industry to a new level.

　　Yuelu Mountain Industrial Innovation Center (Laboratory) has laid out a number of major scientific and technological research tasks around the "Five Industrial Bases", and promoted cooperation with leading enterprises such as China Mobile, Huawei, and Sany Heavy Industry to gradually realize the networking of scientific and technological strength and innovation resources. .

Furong Laboratory, the last one established, completed “the world’s first case of mesenchymal stem cells derived from human umbilical cord to treat psoriasis”, “the world’s first case of liver cells derived from human embryonic stem cells to treat liver failure” and “the world’s first case of diabetes patient passing Porcine islet transplantation eliminates exogenous insulin" and many other major scientific research achievements.

　　In terms of the "four major scientific installations", the National Supercomputing Changsha Center's external service computing resource utilization rate exceeds 70%; the Tianhe new generation supercomputer host system successfully passed the acceptance test, which is of great significance to consolidating the foundation for the development of Hunan's digital economy.

The large aircraft ground dynamics test platform has been successfully launched and will continue to carry out test tasks for upstream and downstream units in the industrial chain such as COMAC. Once fully completed, it will improve the basic research level of large aircraft takeoff and landing systems and bring about a world-class aerospace industry cluster. .

The construction and scientific research of aero-engine ice-wind tunnel equipment and force-energy experimental equipment are also steadily advancing.

　　With the guidance of landmark projects, Hunan has been approved to reorganize 4 and build 1 national key laboratory. The total number of national key laboratories led by the construction has increased to 11, achieving both "total number" and "proportion in the country". ; 7 new national enterprise technology centers were added, 50 new provincial key laboratories were established, and 373 provincial enterprise technology centers were newly recognized.

　　With the collaboration of scientific and technological innovation platforms and major technological innovation enterprises, Hunan vigorously implements high-level technological research and continues to make breakthroughs in industrial chain problems.

The province has deployed and implemented the "Top Ten Technology Research Projects" for three consecutive years, with a total of 147 breakthroughs in key core technologies and 267 authorized patents. The targeted layout supports 12 projects and 231 key research and development plan projects, and has achieved the world's first 17 "firsts" including 330kV and above transformer and reactor prototypes for offshore wind power platforms, the world's first variable diameter inclined shaft rock tunnel boring machine "Tianyue", the world's largest tower crane, and the world's largest diameter shield machine main bearing. "Major achievements in font sizes and "most" font sizes have helped the industry move towards the mid-to-high end.

Three new national innovative industrial clusters were added to the province, bringing the total to nine.

In April 2023, the world's first variable diameter inclined shaft boring machine rolled off the production line in Changsha.

　　The relevant person in charge of the Hunan Provincial Department of Science and Technology said that this year Hunan will focus on the construction of high-energy platforms, use key core technology research as breakthroughs, and use the transformation and industrialization of scientific and technological achievements as the driving force to strengthen top-level layout, overall coordination, and evaluation and effectiveness. Vigorously promote the deep integration of innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain and talent chain, continue to optimize the scientific and technological innovation ecology, and strive to create a scientific and technological innovation highland with core competitiveness.
