China News Service, Beijing, March 8 (Reporter Zhang Su) "Any known technology cannot be stuck." At the press conference of the second session of the 14th National People's Congress, the speaker of the conference Lou Qinfeng’s statement sparked heated debate.

  This is true.

From high-end equipment such as aircraft engines and fourth-generation nuclear power units to cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence and quantum technology, China has continued to make breakthroughs in technological innovation in recent years based on the basis of self-reliance and self-reliance.

  Whether we can comprehensively build a modern and powerful socialist country as scheduled depends on technological self-reliance and self-reliance.

This year is a critical year for achieving the goals of the "14th Five-Year Plan". The government work report clearly stated that "accelerate the promotion of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-reliance."

  Many representatives, experts and scholars pointed out that China’s deployment of science and technology work this year is not only fully connected with previous goals and paths, but also responds to the situation and is targeted, pointing out the direction and focus of breaking the situation.

  Xiao Youdan, a researcher at the Institute of Science and Technology Strategy Consulting of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that guided by the goal of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-reliance, we will continue to make efforts in basic research, major projects, strategic forces, infrastructure, business entities, basic systems, and achievement transformation. , this move is “conducive to stabilizing expectations and consolidating fundamentals.”

  To prevent scientific and technological development from being "stuck", we must consolidate our own development foundation.

The government work report focuses on comprehensively improving independent innovation capabilities, emphasizing "giving full play to the advantages of the new national system" and focusing on enhancing original innovation capabilities, proposing "long-term and stable support for a number of innovation bases, advantageous teams and key directions".

  "Lay the foundation, strengthen coordination, and optimize the system," Xiao Youdan said. This is not only in line with the characteristics of scientific and technological work such as forward-looking, strategic, and long-term, but also adapts to the objective needs of the current changes in the scientific and technological innovation environment at home and abroad.

  Zhang Xu, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and director of the China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information, believes that only by improving the new national system and strengthening the overall coordination of innovative resources from all parties can we "form a joint force" in the battle to solve "stuck neck" technical problems and other battles.

  Achieving high-level scientific and technological development is inseparable from continuous and stable investment in scientific research.

The key to solving the "stuck neck" problem lies in strengthening the creation, application and protection of scientific and technological intellectual property rights.

  In this regard, the government work report made further arrangements on "deepening the reform of science and technology evaluation, science and technology awards, scientific research projects and fund management systems", "strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights, and formulating policies and measures to promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements".

  Li Jinghong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that through systematic deployment and highlighting of key points, it will help build consensus and gather strength, enhance the confidence and determination of scientific and technological workers to achieve high-level scientific and technological self-reliance, and will further accelerate the promotion of scientific and technological innovation.

  Enterprises are the main body of technological innovation.

The government work report proposes measures such as “encouraging enterprises to increase investment in innovation” and “supporting powerful enterprises in taking the lead in major research tasks”.

  Hu Jinbo, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and president of the Shanghai Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that this helps companies superimpose "signals of scientific discovery" and "market signals" at the same frequency, and transform scientific research results into products with greater speed and intensity. Market competitive products and services.

  At present, the world is in a critical period of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation.

In its journey to break through through scientific and technological innovation, China not only adheres to self-reliance and self-reliance, but also adheres to openness and cooperation.

This is in sharp contrast to the extreme measures adopted by some countries such as "decoupling and breaking links" and "high walls in small courtyards".

  Chinese officials have clearly stated on many occasions that high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement are not about “engaging in R&D behind closed doors” but are committed to promoting global scientific and technological innovation collaboration.

The statement of “expanding international scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation and creating a globally competitive open innovation ecosystem” was also clearly stated in this year’s government work report.

  Wang Hua, deputy to the National People's Congress and president of Kunming University of Science and Technology, said that while cultivating local talents, we should also strengthen international exchanges and cooperation to provide important support for the country to achieve high-level scientific and technological self-reliance.

  Hu Dongfang, a representative of the National People's Congress and senior mold designer of Zhejiang Chentai Technology Co., Ltd., suggested that we continue to build a platform for the World Young Scientists Summit, which will help China participate in multilateral scientific and technological cooperation, promote the global free flow of innovative talents and innovation elements, and connect the world Science and technology innovation talent resources.
