**The Economic Work Conference pointed out that the in-depth implementation of the reform of state-owned enterprises to deepen and upgrade the action, enhance the core functions and improve the core competitiveness. At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is accelerating, and the competition between major powers around the commanding heights of science and technology is intensifying, and industrial competition has become the main battlefield of great power competition. State-owned enterprises, especially state-owned enterprises, must strengthen their ability to innovate independently, closely rely on scientific and technological progress to drive product innovation and industrial development, develop and master more important weapons of the country, and effectively safeguard the interests of the state.
In recent years, central enterprises have strengthened their awareness of the overall situation, served the national strategic needs, regarded scientific and technological innovation as the "number one task", concentrated their efforts and resources, and successively built more than 700 national R&D platforms, with an average annual growth rate of more than 10% in R&D expenditures, and substantially improved the ability and level of scientific and technological innovation. International leading products and national important weapons have emerged, demonstrating the strength and responsibility of the national team of scientific and technological innovation, and also promoting the further improvement of the competitiveness of enterprises and countries.
It should also be noted that the technological encirclement of China by some Western countries has not been relaxed for a moment, and the problem of intensive suppression of high-tech enterprises and technological "stuckness" has become more and more prominent. There is still a big gap between China's overall scientific and technological strength, especially the innovation ability of enterprises, compared with the international advanced level, the basic research and original ability is not strong, the situation that the core technology in key fields is controlled by others has not been fundamentally eliminated, and many industries and products are still at the middle and low end of the global industrial chain value chain. To this end, it is necessary to enhance the sense of mission and crisis, take high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement as an effective way to promote product innovation and industrial development, and take multiple measures to promote the transformation of scientific and technological strength into industrial competitive advantage.
Based on the "great man of the country", enhance the scientific and technological innovation ability of enterprises. State-owned enterprises should be guided by the national strategic needs, aiming at the weak links in digital technology, high-end chips, basic software, new materials and other industries, and strive to build a key place for scientific and technological research, a source of original technology, a highland for scientific and technological talents, and a special zone for scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the construction of independent innovation leading enterprises, promote domestic substitution, and strive to produce more original achievements from "0" to "1", realize the independence and controllability of key core technologies, and firmly grasp the initiative of competition and development in their own hands.
Give full play to the main role and establish an efficient collaborative innovation system. State-owned enterprises should adhere to systematic thinking, make overall plans for the construction of innovation system, and open up the channel from strong science and technology to strong products and strong industries by giving full play to the main role of enterprise innovation, strengthening the deep integration of production, education and research, improving the incentive and guarantee mechanism, and promoting the upstream, midstream and downstream cooperation of large and medium-sized enterprises. In order to further improve the innovation system, it is necessary to continue to strengthen the main position of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation, support enterprises to take the lead in forming innovation consortiums, promote the gathering of various innovation elements to enterprises, create a "core circle" of independent innovation of key core technologies, build a "circle of friends" of technology and industry, form a "radiation circle" that drives a wide range of products, and promote more products and industries to enter the middle and high-end of the global value chain.
Focus on independent innovation, research and development and master more important tools of the country. State-owned enterprises must continue to increase investment in high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-reliance, strengthen technological research, and overcome a number of key core technologies that are controlled by others in the fields of high-end chips, operating systems, and major equipment, so as to improve product quality and technical performance. At the same time, consolidate the advantages and leading positions in aerospace, rail transit equipment, construction machinery, etc., strengthen the multi-path exploration and cross-integration of cutting-edge technologies and disruptive technologies, and accelerate the research and development and master more industry-leading, internationally leading products and major heavy weapons in the fields of new generation information technology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, new energy, new materials, and green environmental protection, so as to seize the commanding heights of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation.
