  In the New Year's message of China's top leader Xi Jinping, the "Tianwen No.1", "Chang'e No. 5" and "Struggle" were "named".

  In addition to these new scientific research results, the good news in the field of China’s science and technology in the near future include: China’s space station is about to "go to the sky", the Long March 8’s maiden flight has succeeded, the "Nine Chapters" quantum computer has come out, the new generation of "artificial sun" has been built and achieved its first discharge, The "Chinese Sky Eye" (FAST) will be open to the global scientific community...From above the sky to below the blue sea, from the quantum field to the nuclear energy field, the unknowns of the vast universe, the bright starlight of Chinese scientific research is increasing.

  Born in spring, grow in summer, harvest in autumn, and hide in winter.

The "big explosion" of China's technological innovation is not accidental or lucky. It is a leap from quantitative change to qualitative change over time. It is the release of energy accumulated by generations.

Condensed here is the beauty and wisdom of China's scientific research "heavenly mission", and it also records the steps of China's scientific and technological modernization.

  From the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China to the 19th National Congress, from advancing the "13th Five-Year Plan" to planning the "14th Five-Year Plan", from the collective study of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to the annual Central Economic Work Conference, from the academician conference of the two academies to the symposium of scientists, from inspection High-tech enterprises visit universities and research institutes... Xi Jinping not only "calls" China's scientific research achievements, but also encourages the next step of innovation and development.

  From key variables, unique skills, to strategic support and strategic base points; from ox nose, fate gate, assassin, to great power, Dinghai Shenzhen, no two magic weapons... Xi Jinping’s image expressions highlight the development of technological innovation in China Unshakable "head position".

  In recent years, China has placed scientific and technological innovation at the core of “it cannot be overemphasized”, and it is even more inevitable and realistic. The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in a century, and China’s development is facing The domestic and international environment has undergone profound and complex changes, and the "14th Five-Year Plan" and longer-term development have put forward more urgent requirements for accelerating technological innovation.

  From an internal point of view, the high-quality development of the Chinese economy, the construction of a new development pattern, and the modernization construction require technological innovation to empower.

Xi Jinping pointed out on different occasions, “Scientific and technological innovation is the core, and if you grasp technological innovation, you will grasp the bull nose that affects the overall development of our country.” “To achieve high-quality development, we must achieve innovation-driven connotative growth” and “vigorously promote science and technology. Innovate, focus on strengthening new growth points, and form new development momentum."

Adhering to the core position of innovation in the overall situation of China's modernization drive, and taking scientific and technological self-reliance as a strategic support for national development has been included in the "14th Five-Year Plan" proposal.

  From an external perspective, China faces a complex external environment and fierce international competition, and needs to rely on technological innovation to "turn crisis into opportunity."

"The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in a century, and technological innovation is one of the key variables." "Only by mastering the core technology in our own hands can we truly grasp the initiative in competition and development, and fundamentally ensure the national economic security, National defense security and other security." "In the face of fierce international competition, and against the background of rising unilateralism and protectionism, we must take a path of innovation that suits our national conditions."... It portrays the external pressure and external pressure of China's technological innovation. In thrust.

  Looking at Xi Jinping's “big chess game” of technological innovation in the future, the outside world can capture several key “chess eyes”.

  The most urgent thing is to dismantle the "one sword to seal the throat."

The key core technology "stuck neck" problem is one of the most pressing problems facing China's industrial development. The experience of Chinese companies encountering overseas congestion in the past few years has given the Chinese people a lesson.

  Xi Jinping once pointed out that the core components of Internet companies rely on foreign countries as an example and pointed out that the "life gate" of the supply chain is in the hands of others, which is like building a house on someone else's wall. No matter how big and beautiful, it may not be able to withstand wind and rain. It will even be vulnerable.

The 2020 Central Economic Work Conference mentioned the "stuck neck" problem twice, and made clear requirements-to address the weak links of the industry, implement key core technology research projects, solve a batch of "stuck neck" problems as soon as possible, and intensively cultivate and engage in industrial advantages. Do more unique skills.

Xi Jinping once warned, "The key core technology is not available, not bought, and not available." The Chinese scientific community is determined to turn the "stuck neck" list into a list of scientific research tasks.

  Most urgently needed, aiming at "reality orientation."

In 2020, the new crown pneumonia epidemic strikes. China will control the epidemic in a relatively short period of time by both hard work and ingenuity-the supporting role of technology.

This is the latest example of the power of science and technology meeting the urgent needs of reality.

  "The most powerful weapon for humans to compete with diseases is science and technology. Humans cannot overcome catastrophes and epidemics without scientific development and technological innovation." Faced with the new crown epidemic, China insists on seeking solutions and answers from science.

With the gradual control of the epidemic, Xi Jinping sent a message to scientific research forces to "speed up the development of new coronary pneumonia drugs and vaccines, and come up with more hard-core products."

He affirmed that scientific and technological workers across the country will face up to difficulties and overcome difficulties, working day and night in clinical treatment, vaccine research and development, material security, and big data applications, providing scientific and technological support for the fight against the epidemic.

  Most fundamentally, concentrate on "from 0 to 1."

Basic research is the source of the entire scientific system.

In recent years, China has launched a number of nationally important instruments in aerospace, quantum and other fields, which are closely related to the long-term accumulation of basic research. At the same time, the shortcomings of basic research and the obvious gap with international standards are still unspeakable for China.

  Xi Jinping once said that you cannot always use others' yesterday to dress up your tomorrow.

He believes that many of China’s "stuck neck" technical problems are "the root cause is that basic theoretical research cannot keep up, and the source and underlying things have not been clarified."

He has repeatedly emphasized the "first kilometer" of China's scientific and technological innovation-basic research, "putting the promotion of original innovation capabilities in a more prominent position, and striving to achieve more breakthroughs from 0 to 1".

Only major breakthroughs in forward-looking basic research and leading original results can pave the way for follow-up links such as key core technologies, new technology applications and iterative upgrades, and industrial chain upgrades.

  The most urgent, the most urgent, the most fundamental... The benchmark is precisely the "four aspects" of contemporary Chinese technological innovation-facing the frontiers of world science and technology, facing the main economic battlefield, facing major national needs, facing people's life and health, and connecting remotely The national expectation of "becoming the world's major science center and innovation highland".
