Adhering to self-reliance and independent innovation is the only way for us to climb the peak of world science and technology.

Only by mastering the core technology in our own hands can we truly grasp the initiative of competition and development and fundamentally safeguard national economic security, national defense security and other security. Self-reliance and independent innovation are the core of scientific and technological innovation. Scientific and technological innovation is an inexhaustible motive force for the development of a country and a nation.

Only by self-reliance and independent innovation can we make breakthrough progress in the field of science and technology and achieve a leap from following to leading. In this regard, there are many successful cases in Chinese history. For example, China's great achievements in the fields of "two bombs and one satellite", super hybrid rice and high-speed railway have all been achieved through self-reliance and independent innovation.

Self-reliance and independent innovation will help to improve the country's core competitiveness.

Under the trend of global economic integration, the competition between countries is becoming more and more fierce. The level of science and technology directly determines the core competitiveness of a country. Only by self-reliance and independent innovation can we master the core technology with independent intellectual property rights, improve the core competitiveness of the country and be invincible in international competition.

Our country has made great progress in this respect. For example, in the field of 5G technology, the 5G technology standard independently developed by China has become one of the international standards, which has made an important contribution to the global development of 5G technology. Self-reliance and independent innovation are the necessary conditions to realize sustainable development.
