  "I heard that 'development is the first priority, talent is the first resource, and innovation is the first driving force', I felt the weight of talent and innovation in the mind of the general secretary." As a representative of the 13th National People's Congress, the "post-80s" started a business Yuan Yuyu, the author, remembered the exchanges between General Secretary Xi Jinping and him at the two sessions.

  During the National Two Sessions in 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to the Guangdong delegation where Yuan Yuyu is located to participate in the deliberation.

  "Hello, General Secretary, I am a returnee entrepreneur." Yuan Yuyu's speech began by introducing his experience of returning to China to establish a high-tech implantable medical device company.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping is very concerned about the development of young talents.

After listening to Yuan Yuyu's speech on promoting industrial innovation and talent development, he said with deep emotion: "Development is the first priority, talent is the first resource, and innovation is the first driving force. If China does not follow the path of innovation-driven development, the old and the new will be lost. If the kinetic energy can't be converted smoothly, it can't be really strong."

  The importance of innovation and the value of talents are exactly what Yuan Yuyu has experienced for many years.

  "When I returned to China in 2008, the field of high-end implantable medical devices in China was almost monopolized by imported products. After graduation, most of my classmates chose to enter large medical device companies abroad." During the deliberation, Yuan Yuyu told the general secretary, He has studied and created many advanced technologies abroad, and hopes to serve his country and realize his life ideals on his own land.

  Entrepreneurship was difficult, Yuan Yuyu led a team with an average age of less than 25 years old to devote themselves to solving problems, and almost could not pay wages; fortunately after returning to the country, a series of support policies for technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises by governments at all levels helped the team to get through Difficulties.

  "In addition to various policy concerns, there is also spiritual inspiration." In May 2012, Yuan Yuyu listened to a party class given by Xi Jinping, the then president of the Central Party School.

  "I was not a party member at that time. I listened to your class for the first time in the party class. I was very excited at that time, and I deeply felt the general secretary's national feelings and determination to make great efforts to govern. This gave me a deeper understanding of the party, and more It has strengthened my confidence in national development and national rejuvenation."

  When the Guangdong delegation reviewed the speech, recalling this unforgettable life lesson, Yuan Yuyu said to the general secretary emotionally: "I submitted an application for joining the party after I came back. In 2013, I became a member of the Communist Party with honor. Our company also established Last year, I took the company’s employees to Jinggangshan to further strengthen our confidence in our entrepreneurial struggle.”

  Today, after more than ten years of development, the high-performance medical device products and equipment developed by Yuan Yuyu's team have broken the monopoly of foreign technology and have been sold to more than 70 countries and regions around the world.

  This year, Yuan Yuyu put forward suggestions on promoting the implementation of the main role of enterprises in the scientific and technological innovation system.

  "The general secretary attaches great importance to talents and innovation. I have more and more classmates and friends who want to return to China for development. This is a promising era for our innovative entrepreneurs!"
