China News Service, Beijing, February 26 (Reporter Sun Zifa) Wang Zhigang, Minister of Science and Technology of China, responded to a question about semiconductors at a press conference in Beijing on the 26th, saying that there are some problems with the cooperation between China and the United States. Not what we want to see, we still hope to continue to promote international scientific and technological cooperation in the semiconductor field."
The State Council Information Office of the State Council of China held a press conference on “Accelerating the Construction of an Innovative Country and Comprehensively Supporting the New Development Pattern” in Beijing that afternoon. Wang Zhigang pointed out at the conference that China is now the world’s largest and fastest-growing integrated circuit market. Of course It is hoped that the trend of global cooperation will continue.
But at the same time, China will also rely on itself to strengthen independent innovation, continue to strengthen technological innovation in integrated circuits-related fields, and improve technological innovation capabilities and the quality and independence of industrial development.
He said that in terms of scientific and technological research and development, China mainly focuses on some key core technologies and cutting-edge basic research in the fields of integrated circuits, software, high-end chips, and new-generation semiconductor technologies, and uses national key research and development plans to provide support; to give full play to the status of corporate innovation as the main body , To promote the in-depth integration of production, education and research; strengthen the innovation environment and innovation platform construction in the fields of integrated circuits, and increase talent training to continuously improve innovation capabilities.
China emphasizes the deepening of international cooperation in the fields of integrated circuits and software, actively creating a good environment for the investment and development of international companies in China, and also encouraging Chinese and foreign business circles to strengthen cooperation.
At the same time, in cooperation, China should strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights, strictly implement the intellectual property rights protection system for integrated circuits and software, increase punishment for violations of intellectual property rights, and vigorously develop intellectual property services related to integrated circuits and software.
Wang Zhigang said that the integrated circuit industry is an important foundation for the high-quality development of China's economy, and it must also be the focus of China's research and development, including science and technology.
In the next step, on the one hand, China is willing to actively promote international scientific and technological cooperation among enterprises, universities, research institutions and other innovative entities on the basis of mutual benefit and to enhance technological innovation capabilities in the field of integrated circuits. At the same time, China will further strengthen its independent research and development capabilities. I hope that there will be more results, not only to provide services for China's information industry and informatization applications, but also to provide support and services for the development of the global integrated circuit industry.
He emphasized that the semiconductor industry is a globalized industry. The Chinese government has always adhered to the principles of open development and win-win cooperation, making full use of global resources, continuing to promote technological innovation, and jointly promoting the development of the global integrated circuit industry.
According to reports, the Chinese government has always attached great importance to the development of the semiconductor industry. In July 2020, the State Council promulgated the "Several Policies to Promote the High-Quality Development of the Integrated Circuit Industry and Software Industry in the New Era", formulating and promulgating policies including fiscal and taxation, investment and financing, research and development, import and export. , Talents, intellectual property rights, market applications, international cooperation and a series of policy measures.
