"Leading the United States in digital patents", how did China do it?

The German Patent Agency (DPMA) recently announced a research report that China ’s innovation in digital technology has accelerated greatly. In all important technologies related to digitalization, the number of patents registered in Germany in Germany in 2021 increased significantly compared with last year.

A German TV recently said that "leading the United States in digital patents, 'China's innovation power huge'" said that the latest report of DPMA shows that in the field of "digital communication technology" full of hope, including the new 5G Mobile, including the new 5G Mobile In the fields of inventions related to communication standards, China has 4,308 applications, an increase of 6.8%over last year. This number even exceeds the United States with 4115 applications.

In recent years, the number of digital technology patents has increased significantly. Behind the achievement is a group of Chinese scientific and technological leaders bred growth in the opportunity of reform and opening up. In the global competitive environment, high -speed growth has obtained the development advantage. Innovation competitiveness. Behind the achievement is the digital technology application and digital economy represented by big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, blockchain, etc. in China, and continuously reshape the new economic pattern.

According to the data from China Xintong Institute, the size of China's digital economy reached 3.9 trillion yuan in 2020, ranking second in the world, accounting for 38.6%of GDP. From the extreme backward information infrastructure, to the establishment of the world's largest fixed network and mobile network; from traditional industries, to accelerated popularity of Internet applications, new forms of online education, online medical care, and cloud office models are endless ... The application of new technologies has promoted the accelerated transformation and upgrading of China's thousands of industries, and the role of digital amplification, superposition, and multiplication of economic development, and has continuously injecting new kinetic energy into China's high -quality development.

At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial changes are accelerating to the direction of deep integration and group leap forward with information technology and in -depth integration with new energy, new materials and biotechnology. Digital technology further shows the "head geese effect", and its in -depth application will inject new impetus into economic and social development. The change dominated by digital technology is accelerating the major adjustment and reconstruction of the industrial division of labor and economic structure. The key production factors of data have penetrated into various areas of social production, and their role in liberation and development of social productivity is increasingly prominent. The development of the digital economy is a strategic choice for a new round of scientific and technological revolution and new opportunities for industrial change. In -depth promotion of the innovative application of digital technology, continuously spawn new industries, new formats and new models, and become an important starting point for becoming bigger and stronger and stronger in the Chinese digital economy.

The "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" plan and the long -view target outline of 2035 should propose "creating a new advantage in digital economy", emphasizing "giving full play to the advantages of massive data and rich application scenarios, promoting the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy, empowering the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, giving birth to the birth of the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. The new industry and new formats and new formats "pointed out the direction for the development of China's digital economy.

Driven by the development strategy of innovation -driven development, China's digital technology innovation has shown the outstanding characteristics of strong penetration and wide coverage. Standing at the new historical starting point, the digital economy will release greater potential for China's economic and social development. A series of "Internet+" new economic formats have been born one after another. Cloud computing and industrial Internet have become an important driving force for digital transformation of enterprises. Large -scale Internet platform companies continue to empower the real economy through the Internet, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other technologies; numbers Consumption continues to release the potential of residents' demand; digital technology is still largely got rid of time and space restrictions, and the development of new trade models such as digital trade has opened up the domestic and international economic cycle.

The social atmosphere of the oversized market advantages of China, domestic demand potential, and willingness to try new things provides the leading market and application scenarios for digital technology innovation. In recent years, China has vigorously built new infrastructure represented by 5G networks, big data, artificial intelligence, industrial Internet, and the Internet of Things, providing important guarantees for digital technology innovation and development. China in the fields of information, communication, and the Internet not only complete the oversized national popularization and the coverage of close consumption scenarios, formed the world's largest e -commerce network and a highly scalability social network, but also accumulated huge digital technologies Use the crowd. For example: During the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympic Games, more than 200 scientific and technological achievements were applied, involving green energy, 5G sharing, smart restaurants, self -service sales, scientific epidemic prevention, and smart viewing. Scene. Focusing on these scenarios, more than 500 institutions and more than 10,000 scientific researchers have formed collaborative research and development and innovation, which greatly improves the agglomeration and spread of digital technology.

Facing the future, we should further accelerate the empowerment of digital technology on the economy. The first is to accelerate digital industrialization and digital industrialization, especially the deep integration of the digital economy and the real economy, further release digital dividends, and build a modern economic system. The second is to enable common prosperity with digital technology. The digital method will effectively break the time and space resistance, improve the level of inclusiveness of limited resources, and promote equalization of education, medical care, and services. The third is to vigorously support scientific and technological leaders through digital transformation to play market demand, integrate innovation, and organize platform advantages, integrate and gather innovation resources, enhance China's industrial basic capabilities and modernization of industrial chain, and add more vitality to high -quality development.
