    【Hot attention from Chemical Machinery and Equipment Network ] With the continuous escalation of Sino-US trade frictions, people are paying more and more attention to high-tech industries, and "stuck neck" technology has become a hot topic in the market.
    Recently, Bai Chunli, President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, proposed to turn the US "stuck neck" list into a scientific research task list for layout, which has aroused widespread public concern.

    General Secretary Xi Jinping said that the core technology is restricted by others is our big hidden danger.
    Recently, Huawei’s encounter with the US government’s “blocking” incident has made hundreds of millions of people soberly aware that if many key technical areas cannot be localized, they will be “stuck”, and it has also made people more aware of the need for Chinese manufacturing to move toward the middle level.
    It needs to be really done.

     

    In some fields of industrial equipment, my country’s annual imports are very large, almost 100% dependent on imports.
    This field isInstrumentation field.
    Instruments and meters are everywhere in real life, such as electric meters, gas meters, water meters,Electronic measuring instruments, etc.
    , although these products can also be manufactured by domestic enterprises, and low- and mid-range products have certain market competitiveness, most of the professional instruments and meters are still imported.

    If a worker wants to do well, he must first sharpen his tools.
    Scientific instruments are indispensable tools and means for scientific research and technological development.
    The practice of modern science and technology development shows that whoever has the right to speak in scientific instruments can occupy the high ground of scientific research and technological innovation, and whoever can grasp the opportunities of innovation and development.

     

      In the field of scientific and technological research, scientific instruments are undoubtedly the display of the hard power of scientific research.
    Relevant data shows that in the Nobel natural science awards, 68.
    4% of the physics awards, 74.
    6% of the chemistry awards, and 90% of the physiology or medicine awards were completed with various scientific instruments, or directly combined with new instrument methods or Related to the development of functions.

     

      In recent years, my country's scientific research instruments have made positive progress in localization, but due to various reasons such as insufficient historical accumulation, the situation of scientific research instruments relying on imports has not been fundamentally changed.
    In many large hospitals, colleges and universities, scientific research institutes, national, provincial and ministerial-level testing institutions, the laboratories are full of imported instruments.

     

      Academician Yang Xueming of the Chinese Academy of Sciences said frankly that, at present, most scientific instruments are of relatively high level abroad.
    For the needs of scientific research, the scientific research team does have to buy foreign equipment, because it is difficult to do good scientific research without good scientific instruments and conditions.

     

      At present, domestic scientific instrument enterprises have low investment in independent innovation, and it is difficult to compete with imported instruments in the Chinese market.
    According to customs statistics, scientific instruments are among the most important commodities imported by my country in terms of amount.
    In the eyes of the industry, it is understandable to purchase imported instruments and equipment to carry out scientific research, but we should avoid relying on or blindly worshiping imported instruments.
    *Member Lan Minbo said that the domestic scientific research instruments are basically foreign ones.
    Once a monopoly is formed, it will have a great impact on China's scientific research.

     

      How to realize the localization of scientific instruments as soon as possible and realize the independent and controllable core technology has become a "stuck neck problem" involving national strategic needs and research and production.
    *Academician Yang Xueming believes: "If the instrument research and development hard power cannot be improved, we will not be able to develop our own scientific research instruments.
    Not only do we need to spend a lot of money to purchase, but also easy to be controlled by others.
    "
     

      Scientific instruments need great investment in research and development in order to participate in the competition and to show results.
    On the one hand, only by increasing investment in scientific instrument research and development in universities and research institutes, can the country cultivate a group of research teams who can really do instrument research and development to support the development of this field, and innovation and entrepreneurship will rise.
    It is possible to make instruments that can compete with foreign countries; on the other hand, the country will also issue policies to encourage the development of scientific instrument research and development companies.

     

      Currently, * and * have respectively set up special projects to support the development of major scientific research instruments.
    Over the years, a considerable amount of funding has been invested, and some results have emerged.
    In the eyes of *Member Lan Minbo, the future special investment should focus on supporting scientific research instrument problems that need to be solved urgently.
    "Accumulated, we can only change the status quo of being constrained by others.
    "
     

      In the current situation, the Huawei incident has sounded the alarm for the development of my country's instrumentation.
    Only when the key core technology is firmly in its own hands can it not be "knocked".
