CCTV News: The Third Session of the 14th National People's Congress and the Third Session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference will be held soon. Over the past year, representatives and members have visited the public's opinions, listened to the people's voices, gathered wisdom, and actively performed their duties for investigation.
Sun Dongming, a researcher at the Institute of Metals, Chinese Academy of Sciences, is a National People's Congress representative who continues to pay attention to scientific and technological innovation. He has been working on the front line of scientific and technological innovation for a long time and pays attention to the country's latest progress in scientific and technological innovation. After extensive visits and investigations, Sun Dongming was preparing to bring his suggestions on "the access mechanism of major national science and technology projects" to this year's National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
Sun Dongming is a winner of the National Outstanding Youth Science Foundation. He led his team to make major breakthroughs in the field of semiconductor science and technology and break the foreign technology monopoly. As a member of the National People's Congress, Sun Dongming has conducted more than ten research activities in the past year and visited more than 20 small and medium-sized private enterprises. Recently, he came to a private technology-based enterprise located in Chenyang, Liaoning for investigation again. This enterprise engaged in fine chemical engineering has more than 600 people, one-third of which are scientific researchers, and is a typical technology-based enterprise.
National People's Congress Representative Sun Dongming: The National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Congress are about to begin. I also want to bring a suggestion on how our country can allow private enterprises, especially small and medium-sized private enterprises with very strong scientific and technological innovation levels to participate more in the process of major scientific and technological special projects.
As a representative of the National People's Congress in the field of scientific research, during the process of scientific research, Sun Dongming deeply realized the key role of the "national major scientific and technological projects" in scientific innovation. In recent years, relevant national departments and Liaoning Province have introduced policies and measures to support private enterprises in participating in major scientific and technological research. During the investigation, Sun Dongming found that Liaoning Province has 39,000 small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises, many of which have their own core technologies, but it may affect the application for major national science and technology projects due to some other reasons.
Liu Yang, Technical Minister of Chenyang Haobo Group Co., Ltd.: Our company has a output value of just over 100 million yuan, but sometimes when applying for materials, financial audit is a very important indicator, and financial experts may see that our output value is too small.
In addition to the financial entry threshold, some of the financial provisions in the "national major science and technology special projects" also make small and medium-sized private enterprises sometimes face the dilemma of "the project has been applied for but cannot be eaten."
National People's Congress Representative Sun Dongming: We know that some special projects require a ratio of "one to three", such as the R&D fund allocated by the state is "one", and the R&D fund raised by enterprises is "three".
Liu Yang, Technical Minister of Chenyang Haobo Group Co., Ltd.: For example, if I want to apply for a project worth 3 million yuan, the supporting funds often reach nearly 10 million yuan. For private enterprises, taking so many fees will still be very stressful for the operation of the enterprise.
After a year of visits, investigations and in-depth thinking, Sun Dongming has formed targeted suggestions on "the access mechanism, financial support methods, evaluation system, and results transformation of national major scientific and technological projects", and is preparing to bring them to this year's Two Sessions.
National People's Congress Representative Sun Dongming: In the process of making relevant suggestions to the country, we must also be responsible to the country, so that the country's scientific and technological funds can be used at the edge, which can truly promote the development of our country's scientific and technological innovation cause.
In the interview, Sun Dongming told reporters that as a researcher, just do your scientific research well; as a representative of the National People's Congress, you must fully understand the current situation and expectations of the scientific and technological community and scientific and technological workers, and make suggestions for scientific and technological innovation to lead high-quality development. During the process of following him for investigation and visits, the reporter also felt his professional perspective and his persistence in "constantly finding and solving problems."
