This year marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. During this period, the country successfully conducted an atomic, hydrogen bomb experiment and launched the Shenzhou spacecraft. It gained a lot of experience in the scientific exploration of the moon through the Chang’e mission series. China’s Tiangong space station has successfully completed its mission in orbit. The Beidou navigation system provides global services, Radio China reports.
The country has the most advanced technology for high-speed trains. With tireless efforts for several generations, China has played an important role in global technological innovation. The Global Innovation Ranking published by the World Intellectual Property Organization shows that in 2024, China has climbed another place to the 11th position in the world and remains the only middle-income country among the top 30 countries.
The past seven decades of technological innovation have not only given impetus to Chinese-style modernization, but also promoted the global development of technology and industry. The director of the Institute for China and Asia at the Russian Academy of Sciences, Kiril Babaev, said in an interview with KMG that China’s huge advantage lies in the ability to develop a long-term plan and the government’s ability to implement it effectively, mobilizing all the forces and resources of society. The successes achieved by China show that the country is confidently walking the path of modernization.
The last decade has seen unprecedented changes in the last century. Global economic growth has slowed. Some countries are trying to block China’s technological development. Against this background, China adheres to technological independence. Using the new round of technological revolution and industrial change as an occasion, the country has continuously achieved innovative breakthroughs. The new energy industry has become China’s new calling card, enriching the global supply chain and promoting low-carbon social and economic development, as well as contributing to global efforts to address climate change and realize the energy transition.
Science and technology have no boundaries. For China, technological innovation is inseparable from international cooperation. “China strives for peace, harmony, cooperation and mutual benefit,” believes British education expert Michael Crook. This idea is well reflected in the field of technological innovation.
So far, China has formed cooperation in the field of science and technology with more than 160 countries, signed 118 intergovernmental agreements in the field.
The Third Plenum of the 20th Central Committee of the CCP declared itself to further build the technological innovation system. More innovative projects are expected to strongly support Chinese-style modernization and contribute to global technological innovation and the progress of mankind.
