First, accelerate the realization of high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement.

When participating in the deliberations of the Jiangsu delegation during the National Two Sessions, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that accelerating the realization of high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement is the only way to promote high-quality development.

From the Guangzhou Automobile Research Institute, to the CETC Industrial Basic Research Institute in Shijiazhuang, and then to the Central Industrial Park in Hohhot, General Secretary Xi Jinping’s domestic inspections this year have focused on innovation, development and technological self-reliance.

This visit to Suzhou, whether it is to visit the Suzhou Industrial Park or the high-tech enterprise Suzhou Huaxing Yuanchuang Technology Co., Ltd., has a clear intention to promote high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement.

In the face of increasingly fierce international competition, to open up new fields and new tracks for development, and to shape new development momentum and new advantages, fundamentally speaking, we still have to rely on technological innovation. As General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, “Whether we can build a powerful modern socialist country in an all-round way as scheduled depends on the self-reliance and self-improvement of science and technology.”

Second, put the focus of economic development on the real economy.

Suzhou is a city of manufacturing and is also a city of innovation. In 2022, Suzhou’s total industrial output value above designated size will reach 4.36 trillion yuan, ranking second among cities in the country, and the output value of high-tech industries will account for as high as 52.5%.

General Secretary Xi Jinping attaches great importance to the development of the real economy. During the two sessions of the country this year, the general secretary pointed out in an exchange with Shan Zenghai, a representative of the National People’s Congress from Jiangsu Xugong Group: “From the perspective of the world, our current manufacturing category is the most complete. At the same time, we have to improve , Moving towards the mid-to-high end, our high-quality development must be reflected here. At any time, China cannot lack manufacturing.”

In May of this year, General Secretary Xi Jinping presided over the first meeting of the 20th Central Financial and Economic Commission to study the issue of accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system. This inspection in Suzhou further demonstrates the orientation of insisting on focusing on the development of the economy on the real economy and accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system.

Third, continue to promote high-level opening up.

On June 7, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Inner Mongolia that we need to rely on high-level technology to be self-reliant and build a new development pattern to overcome scientific and technological difficulties. The purpose of building a large domestic cycle is to ensure the normal operation of the national economy under extreme circumstances, which is not inconsistent with participating in the international economic cycle. We unswervingly implement high-level opening up to the outside world, open the door to construction, and work together to achieve win-win results.

The development of Suzhou Industrial Park is the result of China’s continuous deepening of reform and opening up. In 1994, the governments of China and Singapore signed an agreement to jointly develop and build Suzhou Industrial Park. In 2019, the Suzhou Section of the China (Jiangsu) Pilot Free Trade Zone was officially established. Over the past 29 years, Suzhou Industrial Park has actually utilized more than US$40 billion in foreign capital. A total of 104 Fortune 500 companies have invested in 174 projects here. New progress has been continuously made in reform.

During the two sessions of the country this year, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out when visiting members of the Democratic National Construction Association and the Federation of Industry and Commerce who participated in the CPPCC meeting that it is necessary to guide private enterprises and private entrepreneurs to correctly understand the principles and policies of the Party Central Committee, enhance confidence, travel lightly, and boldly develop, and realize the private sector. Healthy economic development and high-quality development.

Suzhou Huaxing Yuanchuang Technology Co., Ltd. is a high-tech private enterprise. Since its establishment in 2005, it has realized the development and growth of the enterprise precisely because it grasped the opportunities of China’s economic development. This time Xi Jinping made a special visit to this company, injecting more confidence and strength into private companies to bravely climb the peak of science and technology and seize high-quality development opportunities.
