Make new contributions to building a strong nation in science and technology
According to a report by Economic Daily,"We must firmly march towards the goal of building a strong nation in science and technology by 2035, and solidly support and lead the Chinese path to modernization with scientific and technological innovation." On July 8th, General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speeches at the National Science and Technology Awards Conference, the Conference of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering, and the 11th National Congress of the China Association for Science and Technology pointed out the direction for the majority of scientific and technological workers.
258 projects and 11 experts were awarded various science and technology prizes, with hardcore achievements listed and top talents standing on the podium. Such grand recognition is not only the highest praise for the outstanding contributions of science and technology workers, but also a deep expectation for all science and technology workers to make new achievements on the new journey of building a powerful nation in science and technology.
Standing at a new historical starting point, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the period of the 15th Five-Year Plan is a crucial period for building a strong nation in science and technology. This assertion not only reflects a precise grasp of the phased characteristics of China's scientific and technological development, but also a sober judgment of the current international scientific and technological competition situation. A new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is reshaping the global innovation landscape and restructuring the global economic structure. Only those who innovate will progress, only those who innovate will become strong, and only those who innovate will win. Only by persisting in innovation with unwavering determination can we win the initiative and secure a bright future in fierce international competition.
