Science and technology must take the lead in promoting Chinese-style modernization, and scientific and technological innovation is the only way. May 24 to 31 this year is the 25th National Science and Technology Activity Week, and May 30 is the 9th National Science and Technology Workers Day. This year's event is themed "Be determined to innovate and develop and build a strong country in science and technology". In recent days, various mass science and technology activities have been carried out across the country, igniting the public's enthusiasm for science through exhibitions, interactive experiences, visits, study and expert lectures. The Science and Technology Activity Week breaks the gap between technology and the public and allows technology to truly enter people's lives.
For ordinary people, Technology Week is a precious window to touch the future. In Jiujiang, Jiangxi, machine police and patrol robot police dogs appeared at the Science and Technology Activity Week, attracting many citizens to watch; Beijing's "Light of Automation" Public Science Day, 18 artificial intelligence technology achievements made stunning debuts; at the Dalian Science Popularization Explanation Competition, the contestants gave in-depth and easy-to-understand explanations on cutting-edge hot fields such as "artificial intelligence", "natural science phenomena", and "medical principles". In Nagqu, Tibet, a science caravan drove into the Senni District Primary and Secondary School at an altitude of 4,500 meters. From the basic physical principle demonstration device to the model showing cutting-edge scientific achievements, students were exposed to science close, and stimulated their strong curiosity and desire to explore science. These activities enter communities, campuses, and villages, making abstract technology within reach, which not only improves the public's scientific literacy, but also gathers deep mass strength for innovative development.
Scientific and technological innovation is not a single battle for scientific researchers in the laboratory, but a grand practice of participation by the whole nation. The various activities of the Science and Technology Activity Week are the key to inspiring the enthusiasm of the whole people for innovation. When children plant the seeds of science in popular science activities, and when ordinary people feel the fun of technology in interactive experience, the seeds of innovation will take root in their hearts. This innovative atmosphere of national participation provides a continuous driving force for my country's scientific and technological innovation.
National Science and Technology Workers Day is an important moment to pay tribute to science and technology workers. "Chang'e" embraces the moon, "Heaven" stays in the sky, "Qianwen" explores the fire, "Nine Chapters" quantum computers... Scientific and technological workers use their wisdom and sweat to write a moving chapter of serving the country in science and technology. From the research and development of precision instruments to the popularization of people's livelihood technology, every breakthrough embodies their efforts, and every achievement carries the yearning for a better life.
We must create conditions, create atmosphere, mobilize the enthusiasm of innovation in all aspects, so that everyone with a dream of innovation can focus on innovation, and that every innovative vitality can fully burst out. The government should increase investment in scientific and technological innovation, improve the scientific and technological innovation policy system, and provide scientific researchers with a better scientific research environment and conditions; enterprises should give full play to the main role of innovation, strengthen cooperation with universities and research institutions, and promote the transformation and industrialization of scientific and technological achievements; education departments should strengthen scientific education, cultivate students' innovative awareness and practical ability, and cultivate more reserve forces for my country's scientific and technological innovation cause.
Many forces that influence innovation and development come from deep culture and concepts. Building a strong country in science and technology is not only a catch-up and surpass at the technical level, but also a development and innovation of civilized culture. When the whole society works together, the light of science and technology will surely become more dazzling and illuminate our journey to become a powerful country in science and technology.
