The Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed to "fully, accurately, and comprehensively implement the new development concept" and "adhere to economic construction as the center and promote high-quality development as the theme", and made a series of important deployments. How to transform cutting-edge technology into real productivity has become the key to solving problems in various regions. From the convergence of innovation in humanoid robots to the rise of intelligent connected vehicles, from the construction of commercial aerospace ecosystems to breakthroughs in rare earth steel technology, a vivid practice driven by path innovation, deeply integrated with innovation chains, and supported by ecological optimization is unfolding nationwide. Recently, reporters from Science and Technology Daily delved into the forefront of technological innovation, visiting research institutes, smart factories, and enterprise workshops to experience the surging power of new development concepts leading high-quality development. Path innovation drives the transformation of new quality productivity. In the critical stage of cultivating new quality productivity, path innovation is the core lever. Not long ago, the General Office of the State Council issued the Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Cultivation and Opening up of Scenarios to Promote the Large scale Application of New Scenarios, which is the first systematic deployment of scenario cultivation and opening up at the national level. In the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone, more than 300 robot ecological enterprises are gathering into a strong wave of innovation. Wei Jiaxing, the brand public relations manager of Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, told reporters that under the empowerment of the "scene data computing power" closed-loop system, they not only obtained real scenes such as Qixian Supermarket and Talent Apartment for data collection, but also completed technical iterations relying on exclusive pilot factories. In Qingdao, Shandong Province, the local government is focusing on the "10+1" innovative industry, implementing the "Ten Hundred, Ten Thousand" science and technology innovation project, clarifying the layout of ten demonstration projects, building one hundred science and technology innovation platforms, implementing a thousand technological breakthroughs, and strengthening ten thousand science and technology enterprises. Li Tianchuan, secretary of the Party Leadership Group and director of Qingdao Science and Technology Bureau, introduced that during the "14th Five Year Plan" period, Qingdao's smart home appliances, rail transit equipment, instrumentation, marine engineering equipment were selected into the national advanced manufacturing industry cluster, and seven industries, including smart home manufacturing, industrial Internet services, and industrial control system, were selected into the national SME characteristic industry cluster. Effectively transforming the rich achievements of scientific research institutions into practical productivity is the key to cultivating and strengthening new quality productivity. Huang Haiyan, Director of the Innovation System and Policy Regulations Department of Xiamen Science and Technology Bureau, introduced that in 2021, the Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Government established the Xiang'an Innovation Laboratory with Xiamen University's biopharmaceutical R&D team as the team, giving the laboratory full autonomy and allowing the founding team to build platforms, teams, and innovation mechanisms based on the bottleneck problems of achievement transformation, promoting the transformation and application of a batch of biopharmaceutical innovation achievements. The successful launch of the product is inseparable from the efficient operation of the industry university research collaboration mechanism. ”Wang Daning, R&D Director of Xiamen Wantai Canghai Biotechnology Co., Ltd., said that university research teams focus on basic research from 0 to 1, completing mechanism research, technical path exploration, and laboratory stage concept verification, laying a solid theoretical and technical foundation for R&D; The enterprise undertakes the industrialization process from 1 to 100, rapidly promotes process development, commercial scale expansion, and quality control, ensuring that product preparation can be stably and efficiently put into production. The deep release of development potential through chain integration can only be achieved by effectively applying technological innovation achievements to the industrial chain, transforming traditional industries, strengthening emerging industries, laying out future industries, and continuously improving the modern industrial system, in order to fully unleash the enormous potential of development. In Chongqing, intelligent connected new energy vehicles are becoming the new calling card of this old industrial city. At present, the R&D investment intensity of Chongqing's automobile industry is 69% higher than the national average level, and the proportion of independent brand automobile production has reached 96%, "said Wang Zhijie, director of the Chongqing Economic and Information Commission. Chongqing has issued multiple action plans to support the innovative development of the automobile industry, continuously increasing the R&D investment intensity of the city's automobile industry, providing comprehensive and multi-level support for innovation entities, and leading industrial innovation with technological innovation. The deep integration of the innovation chain has enabled Heihe, a small town in Northeast China, to fill a key link in the automotive testing industry. In the past, when doing off-season winter testing of cars, we had to transport them to New Zealand, and the shipping and labor costs were frighteningly high. Now, we can complete year-round testing in Heihe. ”Recently, next to the ice and snow circular track at the Red River Valley testing ground, a car testing engineer was recording the driving data of vehicles in an environment of minus 25 degrees Celsius. This is Asia's first and the world's largest four season low-temperature testing site, which can extend the testing cycle from December to March each year to uninterrupted testing throughout the year, reducing the R&D cycle of car companies by half. When rare earths and steel achieve a "strong alliance", Baosteel Group has also forged new "fist products" as a result. Recently, reporters walked into the steelmaking workshop of Baosteel Group, where technicians were adding bags of gray black rare earth ferroalloys into the converter. Wu Pengfei, the technical supervisor of the heat treatment area of the wide and thick plate production line, told reporters that in the past, rare earth and steel were two parallel lines. Nowadays, through the deep integration of innovation chains, Baosteel has mastered the precise "prescription" of rare earth "participation" in steelmaking, and can stably produce 9 categories and 33 varieties of rare earth steel, with an average increase of 3000 yuan in added value per ton. Just this one item alone, the annual added benefits exceed 3.6 billion yuan. The birth of Baosteel's new products is a vivid footnote to Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region's efforts to promote the innovation chain. At the end of last year, the Science and Technology Department of the district issued a plan to establish around 30 key industrial chain innovation consortia by 2027, achieving full coverage of the consortia in key industrial chains, building a new mechanism for tackling major tasks and a new model for deep integration of industry, academia and research, and using technology to support the high-quality development of key industrial chains. Ecological aggregation, thick planting, new quality productivity development, soil optimization, and innovative ecology based on local conditions are the fundamental ways to solidify the foundation and cultivate high-quality soil for development. Hebi, Henan used to be a coal city with surging "black gold". Nowadays, commercial aerospace is flourishing here - nearly 40 upstream and downstream enterprises of commercial aerospace have successively settled in, achieving the agglomeration effect of "one enterprise leading" driving "group enterprises to come to the crane". At the satellite operation center of Aerospace Hongtu Central China Headquarters, the company's chairman Wang Yuxiang told reporters that 13 satellites have been launched so far, and the plan is to complete the network of 114 satellites in the "N ü wa Constellation" by 2027. Commercial aerospace gathers sand and towers, and ecological construction is crucial. Hebi City has established the first batch of 400 million yuan satellite industry fund and leveraged nearly 4 billion yuan of social investment, mainly to support the development of satellite manufacturing, launch, application and other related industries. Building an innovation platform is a key support for building a good innovation ecosystem. Jilin Province has led the aggregation of advanced factors through technological innovation, cultivated agricultural new quality productivity according to local conditions, and built a number of high-level breeding innovation platforms. Jiang Hongwei, Director of the Soybean Research Institute of Jilin Academy of Agricultural Sciences, introduced that this year the institute has established 5 soybean production capacity improvement demonstration bases in typical ecological areas in the east, middle, and west of Jilin Province, showcasing more than 20 new soybean varieties and effectively driving the upgrading of soybean varieties in the province's soybean planting areas. At the same time, the construction of the laboratory system in Jilin Province has reached a new level, building a multi-level and high-energy innovation platform matrix. In Xinjiang, the implementation of the talent strong region strategy has also achieved solid results. Data shows that the current number of R&D personnel in Xinjiang has reached 71000, an increase of 2.6 times compared to 2020. Liu Jiakai, a researcher at the Xinjiang Institute of Physical and Chemical Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, is one of them. He graduated from King Saud University and was introduced through the autonomous region's "Tianchi Talents" program in 2023. After joining, he quickly devoted himself to the research and development of flexible silicon-based composite photovoltaic materials, and his team's achievements have created nearly 300 million yuan in economic benefits in the field of new energy through technological transformation. In the relatively weak technological foundation of southern Xinjiang, the introduction of high-level talents has also injected new momentum into industrial development. Aksu region is gradually becoming a "reservoir" for gathering high-quality talents through measures such as establishing academician workstations, providing tens of millions of funding support, and introducing breakthrough policies. With strong talent support, a large number of high-level platforms have emerged in Xinjiang, committed to focusing on the forefront of science and technology and industrial challenges, integrating multidisciplinary resources, and promoting technological breakthroughs and achievement transformation.
