The data show that China’s invention patent applications have ranked first in the world in 2011 and 1.38 million in 2017; in 2017, Chinese patent applications submitted by Chinese applicants through the Patent Cooperation Treaty amounted to 49,000, which is in the world Secondly, the total number of China's international scientific and technical papers ranked second in the world for nine consecutive years. In 2017, the number of cited papers surpassed that of Germany and the United Kingdom. They also leapt to second place in the world. Zhang Zhongliang pointed out in the text that 'Earth is favorable for people', and then, With the unanimous agreement of the entire country for decades and the concerted efforts, China's progress in the field of science and technology can be described as a matter of course.
First, the Chinese government and Chinese society attach great importance to technological innovation and technological progress. As early as 1988, Chinese leaders put forward an important judgment that 'science and technology are primary productive forces'; in 2006, the Chinese government established a 'innovative type of construction'. The country's major goals; In recent years, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed that 'innovation is the primary driving force for development', and the country proposes and implements an innovation-driven development strategy. Strengthening technological innovation can be described as the past decades of the Chinese government and China. The common vision and common action of society.
Second, China’s population of 1.4 billion, a constantly improving education system, provides sufficient human resources for technological innovation. As early as 2013, China’s total R&D personnel has ranked first in the world, reaching 3.53 million people. / Year, by the end of 2017, it has risen to nearly 4 million people per year. 'Popular ventures, innovations' have boosted the passion of Chinese people for entrepreneurship and innovation. The whole society is advocating science and technology, and the atmosphere of advocating innovation is becoming stronger and stronger. In 2016, the average daily number of new registered companies reached 15,000, and in 2017 it exceeded 16,000.
Third, China’s sustained economic growth has ensured sufficient funding for scientific and technological innovation. In 2017, China’s investment in R&D reached 1.75 trillion yuan, ranking second in the world; its share of GDP was 2.12%, exceeding the EU-15 countries. The average level. In particular, companies have become the protagonists of technological innovation. In 2017, the proportion of R&D input from companies was nearly 80%. In addition, Huawei has such a leading company with R&D input intensity as the industry leader. Such a huge investment in R&D, Even if the efficiency is lower, it brings a huge amount of effect.
Fourth, compared with developed economies, China’s industrial concentration is relatively low, which forces companies to accelerate technological innovation. For example, in the steel industry, measured by capacity, the concentration of the top four companies in the United States and Japan is above 70%, while in China, the former The top ten companies are less than 40%. The lower industrial concentration leads to fierce competition among enterprises, and 'forces' companies to rely on technological innovation. The data show that in 2017, the proportion of industrial enterprises with technological innovation and investment has exceeded the proportion Four percent.
Fifth, China’s solid industry base, complete supporting system, and good industrial support for scientific and technological innovation, and the ever-rich 1.4 billion people have made China one of the largest consumer markets in the world today, allowing technological innovations to be useful. The Chinese market is still a differentiated market. Chinese companies may start from a relatively low level of technology and gradually upgrade to a relatively high level of technology.
Regarding the technological content of Chinese manufacturing, Zhang Zhongliang concluded that although there is still a certain gap between the level of China's science and technology and the manufacturing power of the world, it has not been inferior in some areas. With the concept of innovation and development further rooted in people’s minds, the innovation-driven development strategy is further advanced. The pace of technological innovation in China will be more robust and more embarrassing.
