  In-depth implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy, enhancing technological innovation capabilities, and relying on innovation to improve the quality of development... In this year's government work report, the role of technological innovation in future high-quality development is further highlighted.

In terms of improving scientific and technological innovation capabilities, the report mentioned promoting the reform of scientific research institutes and improving the establishment and management of major scientific and technological projects.

  Coincidentally, at the press conference on the progress of scientific and technological innovation held by the State Council Information Office at the end of February, He Defang, Deputy Secretary-General of the Ministry of Science and Technology, announced that 87 of the first batch of national key R&D plans in the "14th Five-Year Plan" adopted the new project organization of "Revelation and Command". model.

This means that, as an innovative measure for my country's scientific and technological project management reform, "Revealing the List and Taking Command" is gradually being implemented, becoming one of the important starting points for strengthening the national strategic scientific and technological strength and activating social innovation resources.

  The so-called "revealing the list and taking command" is also called "science and technology reward" by industry insiders. It aims to solve technical problems in a specific field of society, and is a non-periodic scientific research funding arrangement organized by the government to openly solicit scientific and technological innovation achievements from the whole society.

Compared with the previous project project declaration system, the "revelation" has changed from the "entry" competition of scientific researchers to the "export" competition, that is, regardless of the source, the results are oriented, and the merits are rewarded, which forces the optimization and integration of scientific research resources. , to mobilize the intellectual potential of all sectors of society to the greatest extent.

  In the past two years, "revealing the list and taking command" has always been a hot concern in the scientific and technological circles.

All regions have actively explored the method and path of "revealing the leaderboard" to promote scientific and technological innovation.

Wu Gang, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Goldwind Technology, said that the state encourages and supports scientific and technological innovation, and it is of great significance to clarify the orientation of the main body of innovation, which has pointed out the focus and direction for the construction of technological innovation capabilities of the majority of technology enterprises.

  The reporter visited and found that in the vivid practice of the project reform of "Revealing the List and Taking Command" in various places, the vitality of the innovation subject of the whole society has been further released, and the transformation of scientific and technological technologies into practical applications has achieved obvious results.

  Through the first batch of "unveiling and leading" projects in Xiamen, Fujian, Xiamen King Long Motor successfully "joined hands" with a local artificial intelligence company.

The person in charge of Xiamen Yunzhixin Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., the "revelation party", said that the company's multiple technologies in network-connected autonomous driving, intelligent interaction and other aspects have overcome the bottleneck of intelligent network connection of commercial buses. Opportunities for cooperation and exchanges with leading bus companies.

As the "listing party", Li Li, manager of the IoV R&D Department of the Intelligent Networking Research Institute of Xiamen King Long United Automobile Industry Co., Ltd., said: "With the deepening of industrial development, the cross-disciplinary integration has become a trend. King Long has accumulated strong technologies in the field of passenger cars. However, there are still shortcomings in new fields such as intelligent network connection, and breaking through innovation barriers with external forces will help us accelerate the incubation of new products and seize market opportunities as soon as possible.”

  Respondents generally reported that under the previous project declaration system, the scope of project participants was relatively narrow.

Most enterprises cannot even cross the "threshold" of undertaking major projects, and the channels for the accumulation of core technology research and the enhancement of scientific research strength are naturally narrowed.

  In fact, the majority of small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises are the most active subjects of social production factors, and they are also key links in the innovation chain, industrial chain and value chain.

  "Revealing the list and taking command" allows truly powerful innovation entities and new R&D institutions to participate in the tackling of major issues without being limited by their identity and scale, which undoubtedly stimulates the vitality of innovation and creation on a larger scale, bringing more innovations to life. The subject's wisdom and ability are mobilized.

  Cui Xiangqun, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and director of the Academic Committee of the Nanjing Institute of Astronomical Optical Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, further emphasized the important role of "revealing the list and taking command" in this year's proposal for the layout and construction of the National Technology Innovation Center.

  "Mostly adopt the form of 'revelation system' and 'horse racing system', stimulate innovation passion and vitality through multi-party and orderly competition, let places and units with real advantages undertake key projects, form a favorable situation of collaborative innovation and healthy competition, and fully support major strategies Common technology and industrial development." Cui Xiangqun said.

  However, the project mechanism of "revealing the list and taking command" is not the only means to improve the ability of scientific and technological innovation.

Wang Quan, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the Satellite Remote Sensing Application Center of the Ministry of Natural Resources, believes that the project system of "revelation and command" is a very good way to solve the problems of key technologies in the short term, but at the same time, some long-term, strategic and systematic scientific research projects are It requires long-term accumulation and long-term success, and it needs to concentrate national human and financial resources to solve it.

For some major scientific research projects with long cycles, large investment, and objectively no results in the short term, it is also necessary to avoid short-term behavior, and to view their development with a more inclusive attitude and a longer-term perspective.

  "The development of science and technology has its own laws. A correct view of the relationship between long-term and short-term, and coordination of various scientific and technological system reform measures can ensure the steady progress and sustainable development of my country's scientific and technological innovation." Wang Quan said.
