Release time:2018-03-29


  This year’s Government Work Report proposed strengthening the national innovation system and accelerating China’s pace of innovation. In recent years, China has been striving to become a science and technology powerhouse and scaling new heights on the global stage. Technological innovation With sustained efforts, innovation capacity has improved markedly. Looking ahead, how will reforms of the science and technology system further unleash innovative vitality? Wang Zhigang, Party Secretary and Vice Minister of the Ministry of Science and Technology, offers an authoritative analysis on building a strong nation through science and technology.
  Eliminate red tape that hinders innovation and make incentive policies more dynamic and beneficial.
 
  Reporter: What is the direction of the reform of the science and technology system?
  Wang Zhigang: We must enable scientific and technological personnel to focus wholeheartedly on their research. We need to create a stable, supportive environment for those who often work in obscurity—researchers dedicated to fundamental studies and cutting-edge exploration, many of whom may never produce visible results over the course of their careers. In terms of technological innovation, we should integrate universities, research institutes, and enterprises, with the government taking responsibility for building robust platforms, crafting favorable policies and legal frameworks, and delivering high-quality services. As for resource allocation, we must address the challenges confronting economic and social development, the comprehensive enhancement of national strength and competitiveness, and the safeguarding of national security and the public’s sense of gain—asking how science and technology can more effectively channel resources to meet these priorities.
  Reforming the science and technology system still centers on people, aiming to tap into the world’s largest “human capital” treasure trove.
 
  Reporter: What are the key priorities of the reform of the science and technology system?
  Wang Zhigang: Reform of the science and technology system must remain centered on people—on how to inspire scientists and engineers with enthusiasm, even a kind of ascetic dedication, so that they become genuinely excited when the topic turns to science and technology. The government’s role is to ensure, through reform, that those who are willing to devote themselves to scientific research and make meaningful contributions can focus wholeheartedly on their work and receive due recognition and acclaim from society.
  Build a robust national innovation system and harness the power of science and technology.
 
  Reporter: What are the key priorities of the Ministry of Science and Technology this year?
  Wang Zhigang: In 2018, our first priority is to build a robust national innovation system—a comprehensive top-level design. In other words, we must address systemic questions: what exactly should the country do in the field of scientific and technological innovation, who will be responsible, what organizational framework should be put in place, how the various stakeholders should relate to one another, and what goals should guide our efforts. Moreover, science and technology themselves follow their own inherent principles. Why do we need to prioritize science and technology? First, we seek to uncover the underlying laws that govern these fields; second, we aim to harness the power they can unleash. But how do we tap into that “power”? We must first gain a clear understanding of the intrinsic principles governing science and technology—how science translates into technology, and how it becomes a source of productive forces and driving momentum. These are precisely the issues that the Ministry of Science and Technology, along with the broader community of scientists and engineers, must address and on which they must play a decisive role.
