At present, promoting high-quality development has become the consensus and conscious action of the whole Party and society, and has become the main theme of economic and social development. General Secretary of Xi Jinping pointed out: "The development of new quality productivity is an inherent requirement and an important focus to promote high-quality development." To accelerate the development of new quality productive forces and steadily promote high-quality development, we need to deeply understand the connotation of new quality productive forces.

Innovation plays a leading role. Productive forces are the ability of human beings to utilize nature and transform nature, and are the fundamental driving force of social development. Productive forces include three elements: laborers, labor objects and labor means. Science and technology are the primary productive forces, infiltrating and integrating into all productive forces. The richer the scientific and technical knowledge of the laborer, the higher the labor skill; With the continuous development of science and technology, labor materials will be correspondingly more advanced, and the quantity and quality of labor objects will also be improved. Continuously improve the level of science and technology through innovation, penetrate and integrate science and technology into workers, labor materials and labor objects, and promote the optimal combination of the three, will promote the continuous improvement of the level of productivity. To this end, we must strengthen scientific and technological innovation, especially original and subversive scientific and technological innovation, promptly apply scientific and technological innovation achievements to specific industries and industrial chains, improve the modern industrial system, and foster new drivers for the development of new quality productivity.

We will get rid of the traditional economic growth mode and the development path of productive forces. The several industrial revolutions since modern times have greatly liberated and developed social productive forces. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially since reform and opening up, China has completed the industrialization process that took Western developed countries hundreds of years, created a miracle of rapid economic development, and become the second largest economy in the world. At the same time, we should also see that in the past, we mainly relied on resources and other factors to promote economic growth and expansion, and this extensive mode of development is no longer sustainable. We must firmly grasp the opportunities presented by the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, and accelerate the transformation of the mode of development. The development of new quality productive forces is characterized by high technology, high efficiency and high quality. The development of new quality productive forces can effectively solve the problems of extensive development mode, low industrial level, and tight resource and environmental constraints, and effectively promote the transformation of development quality, efficiency and power.

With a substantial increase in total factor productivity as the core symbol. Total factor productivity can comprehensively reflect the resource allocation, the technical level of production means, the level of production organization and management and other factors. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has adhered to and improved the basic socialist economic system, adhered to the "two unswerving principles", built a large unified national market, built a high-standard market system, created a market-oriented, law-based and internationalized first-class business environment, continued to optimize the allocation of production factors, and focused on raising total factor productivity. This lays a good foundation for the development of new quality productive forces in our country. Seizing opportunities to accelerate revolutionary breakthroughs in technology, innovative allocation of production factors, deep industrial transformation and upgrading, and the creation of new industries, new models, and new drivers of growth will help significantly increase total factor productivity and accelerate the development of new quality productivity.

The quality of advanced productive forces in line with the new development concept. The new quality productivity represents the trend and direction of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change, and can bring higher efficiency of commodity production and circulation. It fully reflects the requirements of the new development concept, and is an advanced productive force in which innovation has become the first driving force, coordination has become an endogenous feature, green has become a common form, openness has become the only way, and sharing has become the fundamental purpose. From the fundamental purpose, the development of new quality productive forces can well meet the people's ever-growing needs for a better life. From a problem-oriented perspective, developing new quality productive forces is conducive to solving the problem of unbalanced and inadequate development. From the perspective of potential concern, the development of the new quality productive forces is conducive to enhancing our country's viability, competitiveness, development power and sustainability.

New quality productivity has been formed in practice and demonstrated a strong driving force for high-quality development. We need to adapt to new trends in scientific and technological development and meet the requirements for developing new quality and productive forces, promote a virtuous cycle of education, science and technology, and human resources, improve the working mechanism for training, introducing, using, and rationalizing the flow of human resources, and stimulate the vitality of factors of production such as labor, knowledge, technology, management, capital, and data, so as to lay a solid foundation for developing new quality and productive forces and promoting high-quality development.
