Tian Jietang, Minister of the Industrial Economy Research Department of the Development Research Center of the State Council, made a comprehensive deployment at the Central Economic Work Conference to do a good job in economic work in 2024. He pointed out that we should adhere to the principle of seeking progress while maintaining stability, promoting stability through progress, and starting with establishment before breaking through. Focusing on promoting high-quality development, we should highlight the key points, grasp the key points, and solidly do a good job in economic work. He also proposed nine key areas of work, Among them, "leading the construction of a modern industrial system through technological innovation" is listed as the top priority in all work, highlighting its criticality and importance, and providing action guidance for promoting high-quality development and firmly grasping the initiative of development. We must deeply implement the spirit of the Central Economic Work Conference, promote industrial innovation through scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the development of new quality productive forces, and continuously promote the effective improvement of quality and reasonable growth of quantity in the economy. The strong support of progress, establishment, and stability is an important principle for doing a good job in economic work in 2024, which is to adhere to the principle of seeking progress while maintaining stability, promoting stability through progress, and establishing before breaking through. Technological innovation and industrial development are important areas for us to deeply understand and grasp the dialectics of "stability" and "progress". Without technological innovation, there will be no qualitative changes in the industry, nor can new productive forces be formed. Leading the construction of a modern industrial system through technological innovation is a powerful support for adhering to the principle of seeking progress while maintaining stability, promoting stability through progress, and establishing before breaking through. Focusing on achieving major technological breakthroughs, promoting industrial innovation and upgrading, is conducive to unleashing the surging momentum of progress. Currently, a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is deepening, with continuous emergence of digital technology, biotechnology, energy technology, green technology, deep space, deep sea, and deep earth technology. Major disruptive innovations have emerged in the field of artificial intelligence, and cross disciplinary technology integration is constantly advancing. The scientific research paradigm and innovation methods are deeply adjusted, and the widespread application of new technologies in various industries is driving rapid industrial development. International competition in technology and industry continues to intensify, and countries have introduced new strategies and policies. In the face of unprecedented changes in the world, only by seizing the historical opportunities of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation can we win the initiative in future development and seize the strategic high ground. At a critical period of rapid technological and industrial transformation, we must have a sense of crisis and urgency of either advancing or retreating, bravely embrace challenges, bring new growth drivers to economic development, and forge new paths in promoting innovation driven development. Accelerating the filling of technological gaps and overcoming the bottleneck of industrial technology is conducive to continuously improving the level of "standing". Compared with previous Central Economic Work Conferences, "promoting high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement" has appeared for the first time in the overall requirements of economic work. Independence and self-improvement not only mean strong technology, but also the need to achieve strong industries and economies. Strengthening the research and development of major key core technologies not only requires achieving technological breakthroughs in the laboratory, but also truly implementing them in industrial applications, providing solid and powerful support for industrial innovation and upgrading. On the one hand, the demand for key core technology breakthroughs should be extracted from industrial development. Based on the practical and long-term development needs of the industry, a group of the most urgent and strategic technology checkpoints should be selected, and advantageous technological resources should be concentrated to fight the battle well; On the other hand, significant scientific research achievements must be effectively transformed, which requires national laboratories, national research institutions, and high-level research-oriented universities
