It is the destiny of a country, the general trend of the world, and the development situation that forces it to move from traditional factor driven development to efficiency driven development to innovation driven development with high-quality innovation. As Xi Jinping pointed out, "The world is undergoing profound changes unseen in a century, and scientific and technological innovation is one of the key variables. We must turn to scientific and technological innovation for answers if we want to develop new opportunities in a crisis and open a new chapter in a changing situation." This requires innovation in science and technology as well as innovation in institutions and mechanisms to effectively stimulate and fully unleash the vitality of innovation and creativity in the whole society, and make innovation, a key variable, the "maximum increase" for high-quality development.

We will enhance our capacity for scientific and technological innovation, and use science and technology to create new advantages for high-quality development. Self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology are the fundamental support for promoting development. Getting stuck is both a challenge and an opportunity.

First, we will intensify basic research. Basic research is the main switch of scientific and technological innovation. Many of the technical problems that China faces are stuck in the neck. The root cause of these problems is that we cannot keep up with basic theoretical research, and we do not have a clear understanding of the source and underlying issues. We will strengthen top-level design and systematic layout, and increase long-term and stable support for basic and interdisciplinary disciplines, especially unpopular disciplines and fields in "no man's land". We will fully respect the laws of science, adjust and optimize the baton of assessment, allow "ten years of silence", strive for "blockbuster", and strive to achieve more breakthroughs "from zero to one".

Second, we will speed up breakthroughs in key core technologies. Key and core technologies are vital to China and cannot be bought or begged for. Get rid of the predicament of key core technology of others, from national urgent needs and long-term needs, adhere to the problem and demand guidance, the combination of a collection of elite force synergy, and focus on "broken card plugging point" the short board is lacking, focus on the long board spin advantage areas, effectively solve the "urgent" and "sting".

Third, we will promote deeper integration of innovation and industrial chains. Scientific and technological innovation not only reflects the breakthroughs in basic theories, but also reflects the innovation in the transformation and application of scientific research achievements. To build a new pattern of development, we must deploy the innovation chain around the industrial chain, focusing on solving the problem of "bottlenecks", making breakthroughs in science and technology to meet the needs of industrial development, and enhancing the stability and competitiveness of the industrial chain. To arrange industrial chains around innovation, the focus is on developing new technologies, industries, models and forms of business by relying on scientific discoveries, technological inventions, technological upgrading and original achievements. At the same time, we need to activate the supporting financial, service and human resources chains to continuously enhance our position in the global value chain and further shape new advantages of high-quality development.

We will give full play to the dual role of the government and the market, and strengthen new drivers of high-quality development through new breakthroughs in reform. Reform is the key to unleashing and developing productive forces and the fundamental driving force for high-quality development. Focusing on key links and focusing on institutional and institutional reform, we will further rationalize the relationship between the government and the market. We will not only give full play to the role of the government in concentrating its resources to accomplish major tasks, but also rely on efficient markets to strengthen new drivers of high-quality development.

First, we will give full play to the role of the government as the organizer of major scientific and technological innovations. The world's leading scientific and technological powers compete with each other in terms of national strategic scientific and technological forces. Adhering to and improving the socialist market economy under the condition of the new sports system, through the unified national science-technology key coordination mechanism, maximize the overall integration of excellent across the country power, government, market, society and so on various aspects strength twist into a rope, interdisciplinary, cross-industry, mix, technical complementary research cooperation, In this way, key and core technologies can be tackled more efficiently.

The second is to take greater courage to promote the transformation of science and technology management functions. We should shift more energy from allocating money, distributing goods and deciding on projects to formulating strategies, guidelines and policies, creating an environment, building platforms and providing better services. We will strengthen policy guidance for planning, give research institutes more autonomy, and give scientists greater power to decide on technology routes and use funds. We will improve the property rights protection system and create a level playing field and a policy incentive mechanism. In the allocation of financial science and technology resources and the layout of projects, we should adopt a "bottom-up" approach, pool the wisdom of all people, listen to the opinions of enterprises, and give greater play to the role of social forces and market choice.

Third, we will strengthen the principal role of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation. As the main body of technological innovation, enterprises are not only the main body of technological innovation investment, but also the main body of organization and achievement transformation. The enterprise is closest to the market, understands the market demand best, and has the strongest innovation motivation. We will vigorously support leading enterprises in forming major innovation consorties.We will leverage the strengths of market demand, integrated innovation, and organizational platforms, and build a channel through which strong enterprises, industries, and economies grow from strong science and technology. We will promote the strategic combination of large and medium-sized State-Owned enterprises (soes) and private (small and medium-sized) enterprises through mixed-ownership reform, combine the strengths of the two, promote scientific and technological innovation and transformation, and fully unleash the powerful driving force of high-quality development.

To create a strong magnetic field of innovative talents and create a new situation of high-quality development with the "strongest brain". The essence of innovation-driven is talent driven, and the fundamental source of national scientific and technological innovation lies in people. Those who have first-class innovative talents and scientists will have a commanding position in scientific and technological innovation and take the initiative in high-quality development.

First, we will improve the ecological environment for talent innovation. We will resolutely abolish the "five only" evaluation system for scientific and technological talents, and strengthen the evaluation orientation with innovation ability and quality contribution as the core. We will work hard to abolish the seniority and clique-based culture, and put in place systems such as "ranking officials" and "horse racing" to create a broad stage for innovative talents to display their talents. Create a rich atmosphere of advocating innovation and tolerating failure, and improve the institutions and policies for innovation support, innovation risk prevention, innovation failure withdrawal and follow-up support.

Second, we should pay more attention to the independent training of talents. Our education is capable of producing masters. We will train young people with innovative awareness, innovative ability and critical thinking, strengthen training of top-notch personnel in basic disciplines and high-quality technical skills, increase support for outstanding young scientists and engineers, and train a number of strategic scientists and engineers, leaders in science and technology, and innovation teams with global vision and international standards.

Third, make good use of innovative talents without sticking to one pattern. "Plant the sycamore tree and attract the golden phoenix." We will fully develop and utilize domestic and international talent resources, actively participate in international talent competition, and gather talents from all over the world and use them. We will improve a more open, flexible and effective mechanism for attracting and using innovative talents to ensure that they are attracted, retained, and used well. We will respect and treat innovative talents from the bottom of our hearts, and do everything possible to help them overcome difficulties, so as to unleash their creativity and talents, and provide stronger talent support for high-quality development.
