China News Service, Beijing, August 25 (Liang Xiaohui, Huang Yuqin, Zhang Weiran) Following the solid advancement of the Yangtze River Delta integrated development symposium and "technological innovation" on the 20th, China's top leader Xi Jinping hosted a symposium of experts in economic and social fields on the 24th , Once again talked about "technological innovation". This keyword was mentioned twice in five days, and Xi Jinping's related expressions aroused the attention of the outside world.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China will enter a new stage of development. At the symposium of experts in the economic and social fields held in this regard, Xi Jinping focused on China's mid- and long-term development and proposed that scientific and technological innovations should generate new development momentum. To achieve high-quality development, it is necessary to achieve connotative growth driven by innovation.
"We must vigorously improve our independent innovation capabilities and break through key core technologies as soon as possible. This is a major issue related to the overall development of our country, and it is also the key to the formation of a major domestic cycle." Xi Jinping said.
At a time when China is committed to promoting the formation of a new development pattern in which domestic and international double cycles are the mainstay and the domestic and international double cycles are mutually promoted, it is observed that Xi Jinping’s statement puts technological innovation in the new development pattern for overall consideration, highlighting technological innovation The "overall" role of
Zhang Yansheng, chief researcher of the China International Economic Exchange Center, pointed out that technological innovation is vital to China's development. The primary task now is to develop scientific and technological innovation, to transform the traditional industrial chain, supply chain, and value chain from dependent to independent, and to be in line with international standards and become an innovation-driven modern industrial system, thus opening up the "double cycle". Form a new development pattern.
Ren Zhikuan, an assistant researcher at the Guangdong Institute of Science and Technology Information, pointed out that scientific and technological innovation is the meaning of building a new development pattern. To realize the "dual cycle" development, it is necessary to understand the key role of technological innovation in promoting domestic production, distribution, circulation, and consumption.
He pointed out that, on the one hand, technology-driven technology-intensive industries promote the development of China's industrial chain from downstream to mid-upstream and realize the transformation of the value chain from low-end to high-end, providing a material foundation for China to expand domestic demand, which is a prerequisite for releasing domestic demand. On the other hand, technology-driven industrial upgrading can truly bring about the upgrading of people’s quality of life, stimulate the domestic consumer market, and get rid of dependence on foreign high-quality products.
Outsiders have also noticed that when Xi Jinping recently talked about technological innovation, he also used the term "urgency."
"At present, the new round of scientific and technological revolution and the accelerated evolution of industrial reforms have highlighted the urgency of accelerating the improvement of my country's scientific and technological innovation capabilities." Xi Jinping recently hosted a symposium on solidly promoting the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta in Hefei.
At the symposium of experts in the economic and social fields, he once again stated that technological innovation is related to the safety of the industrial chain, and pointed out: We must fight for the key core technology to accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into actual productivity, improve the level of the industrial chain, and maintain the safety of the industrial chain.
Observations believe that China is currently facing problems such as "stuck necks" in core technologies. Especially in the context of complex changes in the external environment, the urgency of accelerating core technology research through technological innovation has become increasingly prominent.
Professor Zhu Lijia of the Central Party School (National School of Administration) pointed out that China's scientific and technological development is in a period of rapid progress. In the fourth technological revolution, China is basically in parallel or even in the lead in the fields of artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and cloud computing. stage. But it cannot be denied that, compared with some developed countries, China's progress in basic scientific research fields such as chips is still relatively lagging. The key to changing this situation is to "fight the core technology battle", especially in technological innovation, to make up for the shortcomings, and to better serve the domestic cycle and the international and domestic dual cycles.
Wang Hongguang, director of the International Center for Bioeconomics of Tsinghua University, believes that there are two reasons for restricting China's scientific research and innovation: "hardware" and "software". The former is reflected in the lack of high-end scientific research equipment, resulting in "follow-up" scientific research, while the latter is reflected in the scientific research personnel. Insufficient innovative thinking and vitality, which in turn affects creativity in practice.
With regard to technological innovation, a major issue that concerns the overall situation, Xi Jinping also gave a path for improvement, including at the macro level, giving full play to the significant advantages of China's socialist system that can concentrate its efforts on major issues, and fighting the key core technology battle; relying on China's super-large-scale market And complete the industrial system, create unique advantages that are conducive to the rapid and large-scale application of new technologies and iterative upgrades, and accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into actual productivity.
From a specific level, Xi Jinping proposed to give full play to the main role of enterprises in technological innovation, so that enterprises become a new force in the integration of innovative elements and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
He also particularly emphasized that it is necessary to vigorously cultivate and introduce world-class talents and scientific research teams, increase the reform of scientific research units, and maximize the enthusiasm of scientific research personnel; adhere to open innovation and strengthen international scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation...
Observations believe that by grasping scientific and technological innovation, we have grasped the "null nose" of China's overall development. At the critical time of the formulation of the "14th Five-Year Plan", China has taken the overall situation and proceeded from reality, and has clearly incorporated scientific and technological innovation into the future layout. in.
