The contribution rate of my country's scientific and technological progress has reached 59.5% ("Thirteenth Five-Year", we have gone through this way)

  The Chang'e-4 probe achieved a soft landing on the back of the moon for the first time in the world; the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was officially opened; the three-dimensional quantum Hall effect was observed for the first time; the 600 kilometers per hour high-speed magnetic levitation test prototype was off the assembly line; 5G as a representative The new generation of digital technology accelerates the application...

  Since the "13th Five-Year Plan", my country's innovation-driven development strategy has been intensified, and innovation is becoming the first driving force for development.

The latest statistics show that in 2019, the contribution rate of my country's scientific and technological progress reached 59.5%.

The World Intellectual Property Organization recently released the 2020 Global Innovation Index, and my country ranks 14th in the world, and new progress has been made in building an innovative country.

  Behind the 59.5% is a substantial increase in technological innovation capabilities.

  ——The support of innovative elements is more solid.

In 2019, my country invested 2.2 trillion yuan in R&D expenditure, maintaining double-digit growth for four consecutive years, ranking second in the world in total.

"In the context of increasing downward pressure on the economy, it is not easy for R&D funding to continue to grow steadily and investment intensity to hit a record high," said Long Haibo, deputy director of the Research Office of the Innovation and Development Research Department of the Development Research Center of the State Council.

Another element of innovation is also prominent in talent advantages. In 2019, my country's full-time equivalent of R&D personnel reached 4.61 million person-years, ranking first in the world for many years.

  ——The output of scientific and technological achievements has become more abundant.

Both the number of international scientific papers and the number of highly cited papers rank second in the world.

The number of domestic invention patents granted increased to 361,000 in 2019, ranking first in the world.

  —— New progress has been made in basic research and key core technology research.

In the past five years, my country has strengthened research on cutting-edge technologies and key core technologies, and has achieved a number of major original results in basic and applied research fields such as iron-based superconductivity and quantum communications; some high-tech industries, such as high-speed rail and 5G mobile communications, have also entered The forefront of the world.

In the “three-run coexistence” of technological innovation, the proportion of parallel running and leading runners is increasing.

  Behind 59.5% is the surging momentum of high-quality development.

  Sitting in the office, Zhang Xiangui, the general manager of Hebei Andy Mould Factory, clicked on the operation panel, and the production progress and delivery time were clear on the screen...Two years ago, Zhang Xiangui often missed a sip of water during the peak production season.

After "fashioning" and using the Industrial Internet, this mold factory ushered in a qualitative change: it saves more than 300,000 yuan in management costs every year, and its production efficiency is increased by nearly 30%.

  Technological innovation has injected new momentum into the optimization and upgrading of the industry, especially the in-depth integration of new generation information technologies such as 5G, industrial Internet, and artificial intelligence with traditional industries, bursting out new sparks.

  Technological innovation promotes high-quality development, and my country's innovative economic structure has initially taken shape.

As of 2019, there were 225,000 high-tech enterprises nationwide, and more than 151,000 high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises.

As an important carrier for cultivating high-tech industries, the high-tech zone has simultaneously improved its quantity and quality in the past five years.

In 2019, the total output value of 169 national high-tech zones reached 12 trillion yuan, and the total economic output accounted for more than 1/10 of the country.

  The registration office at No. 45, Zhongguancun Chuangye Building, although only a small window, registered 8,127 contracts last year.

Chen Yan, deputy director of the Technology Market Management Office of the Torch Center of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said that in 2019, my country's technology contract turnover exceeded 2.2 trillion yuan, indicating that my country's scientific and technological innovation vitality has increased, the transfer and transformation mechanism of scientific and technological achievements has become smoother, and scientific and technological achievements have accelerated to actual productivity. Conversion.

  Behind the 59.5% is the deepening of the technological system reform.

  “We are doing original research on liquid metal. In the first few years, the application projects have run into obstacles everywhere.” said Liu Jing, a double-appointed professor at the Institute of Physics and Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Tsinghua University. A total of 3 million yuan in funding for 5 years encourages free exploration.

With stable funding support, team research results continue to emerge.

  Implement the innovation-driven development strategy and remove all ideological and institutional barriers that restrict technological innovation.

In the past five years, my country's scientific and technological system reform has deepened, and the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem has been continuously improved.

  Improve funding management and make funding serve people's creative activities.

In July 2016, my country issued the "Several Opinions on Further Improving the Policies on the Management of Funds for Central Financial Research Projects", reforming and innovating the use and management of scientific research funds.

  Reform the evaluation system so that the evaluation of talents is not "only thesis" or "hats".

Since the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan", my country has made great efforts to overcome the wrong tendency of "only papers, professional titles, only academic qualifications, and awards", and accelerate the establishment of a classification evaluation system that meets the requirements of innovation-driven development and highlights the performance-oriented quality contribution.

  Optimize the innovation environment, and protect intellectual property rights more strictly.

In the past five years, my country has comprehensively strengthened the protection of intellectual property rights, improved systems, optimized mechanisms, and promoted the overall improvement of protection capabilities and levels.

  "In recent years, my country has continuously deepened the reform of the science and technology system to relieve the burden of scientific researchers and innovation subjects. The purpose is to maximize the liberation and stimulation of the huge potential of science and technology as the primary productive force." Researcher Wan Jinbo, Chinese Academy of Sciences Science and Technology Strategy Consulting Institute Said.
