The Politburo meeting of the Communist Party of China held a few days ago took leading the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation as one of the key tasks in 2024. The meeting clearly stated that it is necessary to lead the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation, and improve the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain.
Leading the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation.
Scientific and technological innovation is the key driving force to promote the construction of a modern industrial system. How to lead the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation?
Sun Desheng, director of the Institute of Regional Economy and Urban Development of the Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences and a researcher at the Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences Research Center for the Theoretical System of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics, said in an interview with a reporter from the China Economic Times that the construction of a modern industrial system led by scientific and technological innovation should be carried out closely around "integrity, advancement, and safety".
To lead the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation, it is necessary to speed up the completion of the shortcomings of China's modern industrial system through scientific and technological innovation and continuously improve its integrity. Sun Desheng said that at present, China's industrial system is complete, and it is the only country in the world that has 41 industrial categories, 207 industrial categories and 666 industrial sub-categories listed in the United Nations Industrial Classification. However, in some high-tech subdivided industries are not complete enough, there are still shortcomings, especially in the core basic components, basic components, basic materials, key basic software and advanced basic technology and other "five bases" and the international advanced level There is still a large gap, and some key links in the industrial chain still have the problem of "stuck neck", which is controlled by others. To solve the problem of "stuck neck", we must rely on, and can only rely on, scientific and technological innovation to speed up the completion of the above shortcomings, and continuously improve the integrity of China's modern industrial system.
Sun Desheng said that to build a modern industrial system, only by continuously improving the advanced nature can we ensure that the industry maintains a leading position in technology and market. It is necessary to adhere to the principle that science and technology are the primary productive forces, talents are the first resources, and innovation is the first driving force, and constantly open up new fields and new tracks for development in strategic emerging industries and future industries, and constantly shape new momentum and new advantages for development.
* Peng Yuchao, deputy dean of the School of Finance of the University of Finance and Economics, said in an interview with the China Economic Times that on the one hand, we should adhere to the technical direction of industrial transformation and upgrading, increase investment in scientific and technological innovation, optimize the environment for technological innovation, and improve the scientific and technological innovation system. The first is to vigorously support basic research and technology research and development, improve the ability of independent research and development and technological innovation of enterprises, and cultivate a number of scientific and technological innovation enterprises with core competitiveness. The second is to focus on technological innovation and promote the optimization and upgrading of the manufacturing industry. Build a modern industrial system supported by the real economy, focusing on the development of artificial intelligence, quantum information, aerospace, life sciences and other industries.
On the other hand, it is necessary to promote the deep integration of industry, academia, research and application, and strengthen the innovation and transformation of scientific and technological achievements. Establish an effective platform for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, promote the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and the real economy, and promote the development of traditional industries in the direction of high-end, intelligent and green. In addition, improve the talent incentive mechanism and actively cultivate innovative talents. We will build an internationally competitive team of innovative talents, promote the cultivation and introduction of high-level scientific and technological innovation talents, continuously promote the development of domestic higher education and vocational education, and provide talent guarantee for scientific and technological innovation and the construction of a modern industrial system.
Qi Yanqiang, founder and CEO of Beijing Huicui Zhixue Technology, said in an interview with a reporter from China Economic Times that to lead the construction of a modern industrial system with scientific and technological innovation, it is necessary to continuously strengthen foreign scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation, introduce and cultivate international cutting-edge talents, and give financial and policy support; Improve the financial service system for scientific and technological innovation, set up special projects for scientific and technological innovation**, and provide professional services for decision-making and management by financial technology professionals; Comprehensively build the "four networks" of energy network, talent network, information network and innovative technology intellectual property network with independent intellectual property rights; give full play to the leading role and the advantages of the market economy, and improve the overall efficiency of the transformation of scientific and technological achievements; Improve the management and supervision mechanism of scientific research funds and the safety management mechanism for the introduction, protection and development of high-end talents.
Improve the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain.
Accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system, improving the ability of independent innovation, and building a complete and resilient industrial chain are the keys to consolidating the foundation of the real economy and building a solid foundation for development. In fact, only when the industrial chain is complete, controllable and stable can it be resilient and safe.
Improving the resilience and security level of the industrial chain is an important measure to ensure national economic security. Peng Yuchao analyzed, first of all, to strengthen the independent and controllable ability of the industrial chain, focusing on strategic emerging industries related to national development and security. The first is to give full play to the key layout and overall planning role in the field of key core technologies, formulate scientific industrial planning, clarify the development direction and goals of various industries, and strengthen breakthroughs in key core technologies. The second is to encourage enterprises to increase investment in technology research and development and equipment renewal, guide social resources to gather in key industries, focus on key areas such as basic materials and semiconductors, and improve the independent and controllable level of the industrial chain. Secondly, strengthen the ability of the coordinated development of the industrial chain.
Promote communication between enterprises and promote the coordinated development of upstream and downstream enterprises in the industrial chain. Gradually relax market access, optimize the business environment for enterprises, strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights, and stimulate the vitality of market players in scientific and technological innovation. Finally, strengthen the risk response ability of the industrial chain, establish and improve the risk early warning and response mechanism, focus on the weak links of the industrial chain, and timely discover and solve the problems and risks in the industrial chain.
Sun Desheng said that the security of the modern industrial system requires strong control and influence on the key links of the industrial chain, which can ensure the smooth operation of the industrial chain in normal times and ensure basic safety in special periods. This requires giving full play to the advantages of the new first-class system, continuing to increase investment in innovation elements in the fields of basic research and original innovation, high-end industries, people's livelihood science and technology, and national defense science and technology, and continuously leading the improvement of the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain with scientific and technological innovation, and continuously improving the safety of the modern industrial system.
Wang Xinning, director of the Enterprise Committee of Haidian District, Beijing, China Democratic National Construction Association and chairman of Beijing Yihai Sharing Network Technology, said in an interview with a reporter from the China Economic Times that it is necessary to consider the safety of the industrial chain from the perspective of the whole chain, and promote the construction of the ecological system of the industrial chain with innovation leading, complementary advantages, and industrial coordination. At the same time, it is necessary to give full play to the role of platforms and industry associations, and realize supply and demand matching and collaborative innovation by joining hands with large, medium and small enterprises in the upstream, middle and downstream of the industrial chain, so as to jointly improve the resilience and safety level of the industrial chain.
