In the past, several countries said that they held the "pearl of Western industry" in their hands, and they did change history with innovation in the past, promoting the rapid development of the global economy and science and technology.
There used to be a saying that some people said that the technologies that the West has but we don't have are the jewels in the crown, and they also put them in a picture of the crown to ridicule us.
Maybe in the past, when our technology was not so good, these technologies were indeed beyond our reach.
But now everything has changed, and some people on the Internet say that there used to be so many proud pearls in the West, but they were all snatched by us, and now they only have two left in their hands.
As soon as these words came out, the Internet immediately exploded, and many people felt that the West was too arrogant and looked down on us before, and now they regret it.
Some netizens ridiculed, saying that let the public know that Donu should work hard, and say more deceptive words to deceive foreigners who want to see Chinese jokes and those Chinese with bad intentions.
Otherwise, they would feel so uncomfortable when they saw that this pearl was almost gone.
Let's take a look at how many pearls China has won by its own efforts.
1. The pearl of aerospace science and technology
It is true that China's industry at the beginning could not create those "pearls" of the West, but we ourselves know how to work hard and catch up.
It has taken more than 40 years and gone through ups and downs to transform our country from an agricultural country to an industrial power.
And in many industrial fields, we have gone from following others at the beginning to running side by side later, and now we can take the lead.
In the past, it was known that the balls with ballpoint pen tips were used to talk about things, but we directly made a bunch of slaps in the face.
We have really experienced a lot along the way, from imitation learning to independent innovation, from the production of low-end products to high-end creation, all of which are our efforts.
On October 15, 2003, the "Shenzhou 5" manned spacecraft was launched, and our astronaut Yang Liwei stepped into the vastness of the universe for the first time.
As a result, China has become the third country in the world to be able to master manned space technology on its own. Since that day, China's aerospace industry has developed triumphantly.
The Chang'e series of lunar probes have successfully landed on the moon, the Tianwen-1 Mars exploration mission has been successfully completed, and the construction of our space station is progressing steadily.
In particular, the construction and operation of our own space station demonstrates China's accumulation and innovation capabilities in the field of astronautics.
China's aerospace industry has changed from a participant to one of the leaders, which is really proud!
Starting from scratch, China's high-speed rail has built the world's largest and most technologically advanced high-speed railway network in less than 20 years, and has also developed a set of high-speed rail technology system of its own.
Friendly reminder: Because the characters in this article are long, there may be an "ad unlock mode" in the article, but fortunately, in the new policy of the platform, ad unlocking is free, you only need to read it to continue reading, thank you for the officials, and the platform.
The opening of the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, Harbin-Dalian high-speed railway, and Lanzhou-Singapore high-speed railway has shortened the distance between cities, proving to the world China's hard power in infrastructure construction.
The popularization of high-speed rail has not only brought convenience to the people's travel, but also led to the rapid economic growth of the regions along the way.
In addition to aerospace and high-speed rail, there are many iconic industries for China's industrial rise.
For example, in the field of new energy vehicles, companies such as BYD and CATL are one step ahead in the domestic market to promote the progress of battery technology.
In terms of information technology, Huawei and other enterprises have made breakthroughs in 5G communications, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other fields, allowing China to gain a firm foothold in the competition of the new generation of information technology.
In cutting-edge fields such as high-end equipment manufacturing, biomedicine, and new materials, China has also shown its innovation ability and development potential, which is a true portrayal of the comprehensive rise of China's industry.
Second, the pearl of China's shipbuilding industry
China's shipbuilding industry, which was previously unknown, has now become a global leader in shipbuilding.
Isn't this transformation the result of iterations of technological innovation?
Looking back, the growth of China's shipbuilding industry has not been smooth sailing. Although at the end of the last century, China had become a world shipbuilding power.
However, we are still new to the technology and experience of building high-end ships, and this field has long been firmly controlled by South Korea, Japan, Europe and the United States.
In the face of technological blockade and market thresholds, China's shipbuilding industry has not flinched, but has worked hard to engage in research and development.
From the initial learning and imitation to the later independent research and development, every step forward embodies the hard work and wisdom of countless engineers and workers.
LNG carriers are the "crown jewels" of the transportation industry, and it is difficult to build such ships and the technical requirements are extremely high.
After years of hard work, Chinese shipbuilders have finally overcome key problems such as low-temperature steel processing and liquid cargo enclosure system design.
It has made a leap from relying on foreign countries to making it yourself.
Hudong-Zhonghua, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Group, is one of the few top companies in the world that can build large LNG carriers.
Aircraft carriers, we didn't fall either.
From the transformation and upgrading of the "Liaoning Ship", to the launch of the first domestic aircraft carrier "Shandong Ship", to the successful sea trials of the "Fujian Ship", which was completely independently designed and built.
The Chinese Navy's "three-step" strategy clearly demonstrates the progress of China's shipbuilding industry in the field of military ship construction.
Large cruise ships are slowly being built in the shipyard of Waigaoqiao in Shanghai.
Behind the counterattack of China's shipbuilding industry is the result of the continuous optimization of the industrial chain and the two-wheel drive of technological innovation. The state's policy support and large capital investment are also secret weapons.
From the supply of raw materials, to the matching of equipment, to the design and construction, China has established a complete production line.
Intelligence and greening have become a new trend. Smart shipyards and energy-saving and emission-reduction technologies make China's ships more competitive in the global market.
Qatar's large order for LNG carriers not only proves that China's shipbuilding technology has won the favor of the international high-end market.
It also marks that China has changed from a follower to a leader in the global shipbuilding industry.
3. The pearl of new energy vehicles
The rapid rise of China's new energy vehicle industry is indispensable to the help of the government. As early as 2009, China began a policy of subsidizing the purchase of new energy vehicles.
No one has ever seen a new energy vehicle before, and there was no precedent when it first came out, and no one dared to buy it, so they were waiting.
As soon as the support policy came out, the car companies made it better, the price of the car also dropped, and the people were willing to try this novelty.
Moreover, the practice of so many years has also proved that the investment in new energy vehicles is not wrong, and it is indeed a very vibrant industry.
BYD has developed a core technology such as a blade battery by virtue of its technical accumulation in battery technology, and has become a leader in China.
NIO, on the other hand, has made great efforts in intelligent connectivity and autonomous driving technology, and their NIO Pilot autonomous driving assistance system is very advanced.
Rising stars such as Xpeng Motors and Li Auto are also constantly innovating in their respective strengths. Now everyone is paying more and more attention to environmental protection, and the market demand for new energy vehicles is also rising.
The data tells us that China has been firmly in the top position of the global new energy vehicle market for several years, and more than half of the world's new energy vehicles have been sold.
This hot market response has paved a broad road for domestic new energy vehicle companies, and also gave them the confidence to go abroad and sell to the world.
The fact that domestic products such as BYD and NIO can compete face-to-face with international brands such as Tesla has already demonstrated the hard core strength of Chinese brands in the global new energy vehicle industry.
Fourth, the pearl that I didn't get - semiconductors
As we all know, the semiconductor industry is a major criterion for measuring the country's scientific and technological strength.
For a long time, this industry has been tightly held by a handful of Western countries, and this is indeed one of the pearls that we have not yet obtained.
However, our country has also begun to become self-reliant and stepped up efforts to overcome technical difficulties.
The EUV lithography embargo and technical blockade are in front of us, but Chinese semiconductor companies do not intend to sit still, but are actively looking for various ways out, vowing to pierce this layer of window paper.
Enterprises like Huixuan Niuniu, they have overseas mergers and acquisitions, self-buried research and development, and are also deeply engaged in core equipment such as ion implanters, in order to win this pearl as soon as possible.
From another perspective, top universities like Tsinghua University have also made efforts in chip manufacturing.
They have developed meta-imaging chips, which have unlocked a new opportunity for China's semiconductor industry to bypass the wall of EUV lithography machines.
In the hard core links of chip design, production, packaging and testing, our Chinese semiconductor companies are also accumulating their own technology little by little.
Upstream and downstream enterprises have worked together, and China has also accumulated a lot of money in semiconductor materials, machinery, and design software.
The industrial chain is becoming more and more complete, and the dream of independent and controllable semiconductor industry is getting closer and closer.
Financial subsidies, tax exemptions and industrial funds have been introduced without hesitation, nourishing the semiconductor industry to thrive and helping us to pick this pearl as soon as possible.
epilogue
There are only 2 industrial pearls flaunted in the West that we haven't gotten left, one of which is a lithography machine, so what is the other?
You may all laugh when you say it, and that's lighter gaskets.
Some people are puzzled, we can build aircraft carrier fighters, but we can't build a small lighter gasket?
Of course this is impossible, this is actually a ridicule of netizens about the so-called public knowledge. In the past, we were ridiculed for not being able to make lighter gaskets.
But now, China has made outstanding achievements in many fields, and many technical barriers have been broken.
However, there are still difficulties ahead, and it is not easy to make greater breakthroughs in high-end manufacturing and core technology.
To gain a firm foothold in the global industrial chain reshuffle and maintain a leading position, this is the highlight of the future development of China's industry.
In this round of the storm of science and technology and industrial upgrading, China did not choose to fight alone.
Instead, they opened their arms and worked side by side with partners around the world with a more open mind to explore new technologies and developments.
Our goal is to make the pearls that symbolize the highest achievements of industry in our hands and make them even more dazzling.
In this way, we can not only improve our own strength, but also contribute to the progress of all mankind and create a better future together.
