On the afternoon of the 5th, when participating in the deliberations of the Jiangsu delegation to the second session of the 14th National People's Congress, the general secretary stressed the need to develop new productive forces in accordance with local conditions. The new quality productivity is a new concept first proposed by the general secretary during the inspection and investigation in Heilongjiang in September 2023, and the general secretary gave a comprehensive explanation of it during the collective study of the Politburo in January this year. To grasp the "newness" of the new quality of productive forces, we must not only use systematic thinking to solidly promote various key tasks, but also use dialectical thinking to find a starting point and make key breakthroughs.
This "new" is reflected in the rapid development of innovation. The general secretary put forward the major tasks of "four new" and "four ahead" for Jiangsu, and emphasized the importance of scientific and technological innovation. In today's world, the development of science and technology is changing with each passing day, and technological breakthroughs are constantly emerging, making scientific and technological innovation a process that does not have a "time to finish". "Those who do not innovate will retreat every day, and those who do not go forward will not retreat", the development of new quality productive forces in accordance with local conditions, the key to "new" is still scientific and technological innovation. Jiangsu is a major economic and innovative province, and should be at the forefront of scientific and technological innovation. Only when more and more high-tech achievements are continuously transformed into real productive forces can we truly realize the "parallel development" from science to technology and from technology to economy, and realize the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation.
This "new" is reflected in the new direction of the industry. The general secretary pointed out that the development of new quality productive forces does not mean ignoring and abandoning traditional industries; It is necessary to promote the upgrading of traditional industries, the growth of emerging industries, and the cultivation of future industries. Traditional industries are the foundation of the modern industrial system, and an important aspect of developing new quality productive forces and "new" is to promote the transformation of traditional industries to "new". There is a famous "smile curve" in economics: the product value chain can be divided into upstream, midstream and downstream, R&D and design upstream, manufacturing and assembly in the midstream, and sales and brand downstream. We should focus on the core links of the industrial chain and the high-end links of the value chain, embed from the high-end of the technology chain, implant from the front end of the industrial chain, and drive the "turning stones into gold" of industrial transformation with the "gathering sand into a tower" of high-end elements, so as to promote the traditional productivity to leap from new quality productivity to a faster time.
This "new" is embodied in the promotion of new talents. The general secretary stressed the need to deepen the reform of the science and technology system, the education system, and the talent system. The time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people. In the process of forming a new quality of productivity, talents are not only the initiators of innovation, but also the practitioners of technology application, and the promoters of institutional change, which are the core elements of new quality productivity. To develop new productive forces, this "new" depends on the strength of qualified personnel in the final analysis. In the face of the new situation of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, we need talents more urgently. It is necessary to pay attention to the local cultivation of talents, through measures such as optimizing the allocation of educational resources and improving the quality of education, cultivate the fertile soil for the growth of talents, and strive to cultivate more innovative teams, young scientific and technological talents, and craftsmen of great countries; It is also necessary to pay attention to the diversified introduction of talents, implement a more open talent policy, and let outstanding talents who are interested in the development of Jiangsu be introduced, retained, and used well, so as to inject a steady stream of vitality into the development of new productive forces.
