In the past two years, discussions on technology and equipment such as lithography machines and chip architectures have been very heated. Most people think that the gap between China and Europe and the United States is too large, and it will not be able to catch up in 10 or even 20 years. Huawei is going to finish it. It reveals despair and sadness. I very much agree with the first half of
's point of view. On the current track, China cannot catch up with Europe and the United States and will always be a follower, but I am not desperate. Why? Why do we have to chase on the existing track? Why not open up a new track? Silicon is a semiconductor, but there is not only silicon in the world. Extreme ultraviolet light can portray circuit diagrams, but there must be other technologies that can portray circuit diagrams. Why don't we take a different approach?
Home appliances 30 years ago, mobile phones 10 years ago, computer games, cars, artificial intelligence, etc. 10 years ago, we all could only look up to the West, even desperate. Some people bemoan that we cannot catch up with Japan in 100 years? now what? We can’t catch up with Japan and South Korea for CRT TV, but we have caught up with LCD TVs; for computer games, we are not rivals of the United States, Japan and South Korea, but for mobile games we have become the world’s number one; feature phones are synonymous with copycats, but in In the era of smart phones, China has also become the world's number one; gasoline cars, we have a gap of more than 20 years with the West, but we have no technological gap with the West for electric cars. We are even stronger in the fields of lithium batteries, supercapacitors, and automotive intelligent systems. Or not weaker than Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea; when Japan Honda launched the Amossi bionic human robot in 2008, we were amazed and exclaimed that it was too powerful and we couldn't do it, but now China's artificial intelligence has already left Japan a few blocks away!
There are tens of thousands of roads in the world, why should we breathe other people's exhaust on the roads they walked by? Another way, a whole new world, maybe even better! Everything about
shows that you can never catch up with others on other people's tracks, but if you change a track, the former ruler does not have much advantage. China has a huge talent and market, and at the same starting line, it can become a leader in a very short time! Motorola, Nokia, Toyota, Hyundai, Sony, Toshiba, and Panasonic, who were once in the eyes of the Chinese, have long since collapsed and fallen into the world. Today’s ASML, Boeing, Airbus, Apple, Microsoft, and Google are powerful, but we no longer regard them as gods. Because of their technology, although we can’t reach it now, we all know the principle and it’s no longer the same. Ten years ago, as primitive people looked at the electronic age, there was no clue, nothing but wow wow wow.
In today's world, the development of science and technology changes rapidly, and a seemingly humble technological breakthrough may usher in an era. Digital cameras have replaced film cameras, Kodak has no place to die; LCD TVs have replaced CRTs, and Toshiba is in decline; the rise of the Internet age, traditional media have closed down; the rise of streaming media, the disappearance of portals; the rise of drones, the rules of war change... .... How many powerful brands have fallen in just two or three years? Under the change of the track, all the powerful are paper tigers, vulnerable to one blow!
There will be opportunities at any time. As long as you seize it, you may rise instantly. Don't give up the courage to explore just because you are behind now. What's more, China is not weak at all. We have strong marketing capabilities and technical application capabilities. We are now leading the world in many fields when the technology is not so advanced. If the technology goes up, it will be almost invincible. In the future, Chinese science and technology will inevitably affect every corner of the world, reaching a height that the United States cannot reach.
China’s biggest shortcoming at present is basic scientific research. Brand new technologies and industries are often born in laboratories, such as optical fibers, lithium batteries, and semiconductors. They were all accidentally discovered in laboratories back then, and then turned out to become epoch-making industries. China's current technology research and development are mainly followers, advancing on the road opened by others, improving and promoting existing technologies, such as 5G, wifi, mobile payment, smart phones, high-speed rail, etc., lacking breakthrough and pioneering technologies.
We have invested too little in the field of basic scientific research and achieved too little results. Although basic research has slow results and input and output are not necessarily proportional, once there is a result, it is monopolized, and even a long-term technological monopoly can be formed. The long-term benefits may be amazing.
We should not always be followers of science and technology, we should also become leaders, pioneers and pioneers.
The research on basic science cannot be limitedIn universities and public scientific research institutions, private capital and talents should be guided to enter the field of basic scientific research, or joint-stock scientific research laboratories should be established, and the state should set standards and provide subsidies.
In 2019, the enrollment of graduate students in China exceeded 800,000, and the number of graduate students actually engaged in scientific research may not even be one in ten. This is not only a problem of concept, but also the reason why there are too few scientific research jobs. According to statistics, 30% of graduate students go to primary and secondary schools or even kindergartens to become teachers after graduation. This is a huge waste of talent! Our purpose of training graduate students is to develop high-end technology, not to teach others 1+1=2, to wipe children's nose!
Creating more scientific research positions may be as important as developing graduate education!
pays attention to the Monkey Army Collection, which includes cities, rural areas, technology and culture!
