This year's National Two Sessions, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, visited the delegation three times to discuss state affairs with the delegates, focusing on several "new things."
One "new" - new quality productivity.
On March 5, Xi Jinping participated in the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation and emphasized “the development of new productive forces in accordance with local conditions.”
In September last year, Xi Jinping inspected Heilongjiang and proposed the concept of "new quality productivity" for the first time; the Central Economic Work Conference held at the end of that year made arrangements for "developing new quality productivity"; during the first collective study of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee this year, Xi Jinping discussed this A systematic explanation of a concept.
During this time's National Two Sessions, new productivity has become the most popular political and economic keyword.
In the government work report, accelerating the development of new productive forces was listed as the top ten tasks of the Chinese government this year; at the two sessions press conferences, open group activities, and "ministerial channels", many "top leaders" of ministries and commissions, and local officials, from Various aspects provided interpretations on the development of new productive forces; during the deliberation and discussion, representative committee members talked about their understanding of new productive forces based on their own actual conditions.
Outsiders believe that understanding the new productive forces will hold the key to China's development this year and beyond.
It is worth noting that Xi Jinping also emphasized at the Jiangsu Youth League that developing new productive forces does not mean neglecting or abandoning traditional industries. It is necessary to prevent herds and bubbles, nor to create a model.
There is no doubt that in this critical year for achieving the goals and tasks of the 14th Five-Year Plan, new productive forces will become an important index for observing China's future development.
2. “New” – strategic capabilities in emerging fields.
On March 7, when Xi Jinping attended the plenary meeting of the People's Liberation Army and Armed Police Force delegation, he laid out plans for comprehensively improving strategic capabilities in emerging fields.
Strategic capabilities in emerging fields are an important part of the national strategic system and capabilities, related to the high-quality development of China's economy and society, and related to national security and military initiative.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has made a series of arrangements to promote the development of strategic emerging industries and new combat forces.
This time, Xi Jinping further clarified relevant strategies and plans for building strategic capabilities in emerging areas, including improving maritime management capabilities, building aerospace systems, and maintaining national network security capabilities.
"There is no doubt that in the construction of strategic capabilities in emerging fields, there are still phenomena of fragmentation, fragmentation, and duplication of construction." The People's Liberation Army Daily commented that the construction of strategic capabilities in emerging fields urgently needs to adhere to a problem orientation, continue to deepen reforms, and integrate resources. strength.
Xi Jinping specifically proposed to grasp the characteristics and laws of the development of emerging fields and promote the efficient integration and two-way pull of new productive forces and new combat capabilities.
The current reform in emerging fields must be highlighted as a key point in further comprehensively deepening reforms. It is observed that China has entered a critical period to promote the construction of strategic capabilities in emerging fields.
Three "new" - technological innovation.
New productivity and strategic capabilities in emerging fields all point to a common inherent requirement—technological innovation.
"Scientific and technological innovation is like a lever that moves the earth, and can always create unexpected miracles." Xi Jinping once compared it this way.
At the Jiangsu Youth League this year, Xi Jinping emphasized the need to deepen reforms in the science and technology system, education system, and talent system to break through the blockages that restrict the development of new productive forces.
On March 6, while attending the joint meeting of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Xi Jinping once again made demands to members of the scientific and technological community to shoulder the important task of scientific and technological innovation, strengthen basic research and applied basic research, and fight for key core technologies.
At the delegation of the People's Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force, Xi Jinping once again emphasized that the development of emerging fields fundamentally stems from the innovation and application of science and technology.
It is necessary to enhance confidence in innovation and vigorously promote independent innovation and original innovation.
For China today, how to win the initiative through "first move" and how to open up new fields and new tracks depends fundamentally on technological innovation.
The underlying logic that runs through new productivity and strategic capabilities in emerging fields is still technological innovation.
The blueprint for Chinese-style modernization has been drawn. China is moving towards "newness" and leveraging new development. Scientific and technological innovation is still the "key variable" to win the future.
