(A closer look at China) High-level, Xi Jinping's "re-upgrade" orientation for technological self-reliance and self-reliance

  China News Service, Beijing, May 29 (Huang Yuqin and Zhang Su) When China enters a new stage of development, facing the complex situation of domestic transformation and upgrading and international competition, how will scientific and technological innovation at the "core position of the overall national development" become a key variable? It has attracted much attention at home and abroad.

  "Science and technology establishes the nation, and science and technology makes the country strong." Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, State President, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, on the 28th, at a conference related to the development of technological innovation and development, with "high level" and "science and technology self-reliance." The two keywords of "self-reliance" set the focus for China's next stage of innovation and development.

Experts interviewed by China News Agency said that this latest statement contains the direction of China's technological self-reliance and "re-upgrading", and it also clarifies how to draw a high-level technological self-reliance "construction roadmap".

  At present, technological innovation has become the main battlefield of international strategic games.

The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed to insist on the core position of innovation in the overall situation of China's modernization drive, and to promote "science and technology self-reliance and self-reliance" to the height of "strategic support for national development".

  At this high-level meeting, Xi Jinping added the "high-level" attributive to this strategic support for the first time, clearly calling for speeding up the construction of a scientific and technological power, and achieving high-level scientific and technological self-reliance.

Some commentators pointed out that the "high-level" proposal is based not only on past development results, but also on actual development and echoing the future.

  Based on the achievements of China’s scientific and technological innovation and development, Professor Zhu Lijia of the Central Party School (National School of Administration) analyzed that China’s scientific research capabilities have been greatly improved, and the transformation from “following” to “parallel running” has basically been achieved. With the goal of high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance, we are striding towards the "leading", and the expression "high-level" also further clarifies that accelerating the construction of a technological power is an inevitable requirement in the future.

  In the current increasingly fierce global technological competition, a high-level independent technological force is related to the stability of the industrial chain and supply chain. Li Xia, Dean of the Institute of Science History and Culture of Shanghai Jiaotong University, pointed out that once the key technological forces are insufficient, the existing There is a risk of substitution in the supply chain of the industrial chain.

Only high-level technological self-reliance can maintain the stability of the industrial chain and supply chain with a comparative advantage, and avoid being "stuck" and "passively decoupled."

  Facing the future, the most essential feature of constructing a new development pattern is "to achieve a high level of self-reliance."

Chang Jian, a professor at the Zhou Enlai School of Government and Management of Nankai University, believes that focusing on the vision of long-term development and long-term stability, high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance are intended to “emphasize independent innovation more prominently”, and firmly grasp the initiative of development and innovation in his own hands, and then form The driving force for high-quality development.

  From the high level of strategic scientific and technological strength of laboratories, universities, and enterprises, to the high level of innovation system and talent evaluation system and mechanism, to the high level of basic research results and key core technology output... When technology is self-reliant and self-reliant, "upgrade" In his speech, Xi Jinping made a systematic discussion on what is "high level".

Some observations pointed out that the specificization of "high-level" goals will help to further clarify the division of labor and implement responsibilities, and avoid disorderly competition with chaotic levels.

  In proposing the goal of "high-level", experts noted that Xi Jinping pays particular attention to the national strategic scientific and technological forces represented by national laboratories, national scientific research institutions, high-level research universities, and leading scientific and technological enterprises, and has made clear that each of them is improving the country. The role of the overall effectiveness of the innovation system.

He specifically pointed out that in the competition among the world's technological powers, the competition is for national strategic scientific and technological forces, and "we must consciously fulfill the mission of high-level technological independence and self-reliance."

  “Clarifying the composition of national strategic scientific and technological forces will help to divide the positions and division of labor of scientific and technological forces at various levels, implement responsibilities and missions, and avoid disorderly competition." Li Xia believes that clear structural arrangements are more beneficial to the head. Ministry of science and technology to achieve original innovation.

  From "have extraordinary merits, we must treat the extraordinary people" to "the merits are achieved, and the karma depends on the wide range of talents", from "the way of innovation, only to win people" to "planting plane trees and attracting golden phoenix" , Combing and discovering that Xi Jinping always attaches great importance to scientific and technological innovation talents.

  "In order to achieve high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance, my country must rely on high-level innovative talents in the final analysis." Xi Jinping once again pointed out "talents" as the key force in the "construction roadmap" to clarify the creation of high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance.

  "To stimulate the innovative vitality of all kinds of talents, and build a global talent highland." Experts noted that Xi Jinping mentioned scientific and technological talents in his speech, which includes both domestic talent training and international talent exchange and introduction.

In this regard, Li Xia analyzed and pointed out that self-reliance and self-reliance are the foundation of scientific and technological cooperation and development. Making full use of the opportunities of international scientific and technological cooperation is precisely an effective means to achieve a high level of self-reliance. History has long proven that closed doors will only cause degradation.

  Gathering talents from all over the world to use them, and how to activate the innovation vitality of scientific and technological workers is also a topic of concern in the scientific and technological circles.

At this conference, Xi Jinping’s remarks on how to allow scientific and technological talents to concentrate on innovation, aroused strong resonance among the delegates-we must not allow the scientific and technical personnel to spend a lot of time on some unnecessary welcoming and sending activities, and spending on Unnecessary review and evaluation activities are spent on formalism and bureaucratic activities.

  "The core of achieving high-level scientific and technological self-reliance lies in scientific and technological talents. There are not many scientific and technological talents in China, but there are not many core talents who can really play a leading role in innovation." Chang Jian pointed out, "General Secretary Xi Jinping Attach importance to "addition" and require the implementation of systems such as "revealing the rankings" and "horse racing" to reduce talents without sticking to one pattern; even implementing "subtraction", emphasizing loosening and reducing the burden on talents, creating a relaxed scientific research environment, and removing institutional barriers that restrict the development of talents. Adding one and subtracting it is to stimulate the motivation of high-level innovative talents from different dimensions to achieve China's goal of self-reliance and self-reliance in science and technology.
