When production and consumption interact deeply, the "spark of innovation" can form a new industrial blue ocean with a "prairie fire" momentum, allowing more innovative achievements to "fly into ordinary people's homes", which helps to promote the better transformation of technological advantages into development advantages. Only by adhering to the value benchmark of technology for the good and benefiting the people, and improving social governance and legal rules, can the positive effects of technological innovation be maximized while preventing social risks. "Photon" can make delicious sandwiches, "Wanda" can clean the desktop, "Mozi" can efficiently store and accurately fold clothes, "Alpha Egg" can tell stories and teach English... At the recently held "Smart Future - Nanny Robot Conference", humanoid robots were used in various family scenarios. Show off your skills and leave a deep impression on people. The new breakthrough of "hardcore" technology depicts a beautiful picture of future life. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that "meeting the people's aspirations for a better life should be the foothold of scientific and technological innovation, and benefiting, enriching, and improving people's livelihoods should be an important direction of scientific and technological innovation." Benefiting the people towards goodness has always been the value orientation of scientific and technological innovation. In the fertile countryside, the intelligent and efficient rice wheat combine harvester can harvest 600 kilograms of crops in one minute, greatly improving the efficiency of summer and autumn harvests; Domestic orthopedic surgical robots and endoscopic surgical robots are put into use in hospital operating rooms; During the 14th Five Year Plan period, in elderly care institutions, equipment such as smart watches and smart canes are used to optimize elderly care services. Small and beautiful technological innovations are deeply integrated with people's lives, better meeting their aspirations for a better life. Engels once said, "Once there is a technological need in society, this need will push science forward more than ten universities." China has a population of over 1.4 billion, with a middle-income group of over 400 million people, a super large market, and rich technological application scenarios. The practical needs of daily life are increasing day by day, and various industries are eagerly anticipating new technologies and products. When the supply side "fits" the demand side, and when production and consumption interact deeply, the "spark of innovation" can form a new industrial blue ocean with a "prairie fire" momentum. The CR450 high-speed train of Fuxing has been successfully launched, improving the efficiency of passenger travel and driving the scale of China's rail transit equipment industry to exceed one trillion yuan; Commercial aerospace "star arrows" are frequently launched to assist in refined management of crops. It is expected that the size of China's commercial aerospace market will reach 2.8 trillion yuan by 2025; The annual power generation of the "Hualong One" and "Guohe One" nuclear power units exceeds 10 billion kilowatt hours per unit, which can meet the electricity needs of millions of residents... Practice has proven that market-oriented efforts to vigorously promote technology application, integration, and iteration can help more innovative achievements "fly into ordinary people's homes" and promote the better transformation of scientific and technological advantages into development advantages. China is investing more and more resources to enable people with disabilities to live the lives they want, "said Jose Maria Biela, Executive Director of the International Disabled Persons' Federation. This reflects that the application of technological innovation has also expanded new paths for benefiting people's livelihoods. Medical institutions have launched artificial intelligence accompanying services to make the medical process smoother for patients; Electronic social security cards are widely popularized, and personal social security rights forms, transfer of pension insurance relationships, and application for urban and rural residents' pension insurance benefits can all be processed online. With more data running away, the public can run errands less. By making good use of new technologies to solve livelihood problems and serve daily life, we can break out of the existing framework and provide new solutions to solve livelihood difficulties and pain points, continuously enhancing the sense of gain, happiness, and security of the people. Looking deeper, adhering to the principle of technology benefiting the people is not only related to improving people's livelihoods, but also to the future of technological innovation. In today's era, new technologies such as artificial intelligence, biomedicine, and gene editing are not only stimulating new development momentum, but also bringing new impacts to various aspects such as social governance and legal rules. For example, when large language models process and generate data, they may infringe on personal privacy; Face swapping, onomatopoeia, and other techniques may be used for fraud and creating false information. Therefore, technological innovation is no longer just a technical issue, but has more distinct value attributes, governance attributes, and ethical attributes. Only by adhering to the principle of technology benefiting the people and improving social governance and legal rules based on such value benchmarks, can we maximize the positive effects of technological innovation while preventing social risks. Chinese path to modernization focuses on people's livelihood. Technological innovation ultimately falls on 'people'. On the new journey, seizing all favorable opportunities and utilizing all favorable conditions to promote more good technologies into new applications will surely benefit the masses with the fruitful achievements of technological innovation and create a better life.
