On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Youth League, the first white paper on youth in the history of New China, "Chinese Youth in the New Era", was released, which outlined the portrait of China's entrepreneurial youth from five aspects, such as the basic characteristics of entrepreneurs, entrepreneurial funds, and difficulties.
Young people actively participate in the "big stage" of rural revitalization
On the campus of Hunan University, a network system consisting of several mobile video devices is monitoring the traffic of people at intersections in real time and recording road conditions. This is the first time that the latest 5G movable video guard system developed by Tian Ye, founder of a technology company in Changsha, and his team has been tested in the field.
Tian Ye, founder of a technology company in Changsha, Hunan Province: It can bring its own lithium battery and use the 5G network to connect to the public network, so that the temporary scene image can be saved and transmitted to the cloud. For the later personnel retrospective, including the addition of some AI algorithms, are very valuable.
TianYe's hometown is in the countryside of Shaanxi, and his parents have planted all their lives. As a child, he dreamed of designing a system that would allow his parents to manage large tracts of farmland without leaving their homes, protected from the wind and the sun.
Tian Ye, founder of a technology company in Changsha, Hunan Province: Whether it can directly replace people to operate, it can intelligently complete such farming operations without anyone, thereby greatly reducing people's labor expenditure.
After having such an idea, Tian Ye, who was still a graduate student at Hunan University at the time, chose to start a business while studying, and originally thought that as long as there was technology, everything was very simple. He and his partners spent more than two years to finalize the design of the first project, the "pure electric intelligent tractor", in an effort to achieve unmanned operation and remote management of farming. However, from the design of a product to the market and recognition, funds, channels, and platforms are all obstacles that cannot be bypassed.
Tian Ye, founder of a technology company in Changsha, Hunan Province: At that time, we only wanted to use the technology mastered by our own team to achieve intelligent and unmanned goals according to the agricultural operation links we formulated, to make a product, lacking market factors and some cost factors.
Due to the high cost of mass production of the equipment, Tian Ye and his team's first project ended in failure. At this time, Changsha Yuelu Mountain University Science and Technology City took the initiative to help them solve urgent problems such as funds and office space in detail after a detailed understanding of the project situation and future prospects. Now, Tian Ye is hopefully starting a second venture.
In recent years, Changsha has successively launched the "Several Measures for the Construction of Talent Teams for Rural Revitalization Industries in Changsha City" and 13 supporting measures, and the policy proposes to give up to 1 million yuan of support funds for outstanding agricultural entrepreneurship projects every year. At present, Changsha has trained more than 2,000 modern agricultural leading talents and nearly 50,000 new professional farmers, and solved the financing problem of youth innovation and entrepreneurship through special fund support of 20 million yuan per year, making Changsha an innovation and entrepreneurship capital that talents aspire to.
With the deepening of Shandong's rural revitalization strategy, more and more "new farmers" choose to return to their hometowns to start a business and pan for gold in the tide of rural revitalization. A few years ago, Wu Zheng returned to the old revolutionary area of Yimeng from Shanghai to explore the use of e-commerce to sell the specialty of the old area - canned yellow peach. In order to support Wu Zheng's successful entrepreneurship, the local government provided him with 80,000 yuan of entrepreneurial funds to return to his hometown, and also let him participate in e-commerce training classes for free to learn more e-commerce operation experience. Last year, Wuzheng's online sales exceeded 20 million yuan.
Wu Zheng, head of a marketing management company in Shandong: Now the state is also proposing a rural revitalization strategy and a support policy for returning to the hometown to start a business, giving certain financial support and platform support, so that our young people have no worries about starting a business.
Up to now, the three levels of Shandong Province, cities and counties have generally established a good youth alliance, and a total of 3.15 billion yuan of "rural good youth loans" have been issued, helping industrial upgrading and driving a large number of young people to participate in the big stage of rural revitalization.
Show talents in scientific and technological innovation and serve the society
The white paper points out that in the information technology service industry, culture, sports and entertainment industry, science and technology application service industry and other industries with innovation and creativity as the key competitiveness, young people account for more than 50%, and a large number of "unicorn enterprises" and "gazelle enterprises" led by young people have gushed out.
Metal corrosion will not only cause huge economic losses, but also produce serious safety hazards, which is a common concern of all countries in the world. To improve the corrosion resistance of metals, it is essential to coat the pretreatment layer. But in the past, this technology was mainly in the hands of countries such as Germany and Japan. The "Chelated Film Forming Technology" developed by Shandong University doctoral student He Wei and the team uses new materials extracted from plants for metal pretreatment, which is not only green and environmentally friendly, but also breaks the monopoly of foreign technology.
Shandong University 2021 doctoral student Hewei: There are foreign companies that want to buy off our intellectual property rights, the teacher said that after selling, we really can't do it anymore, and the research results in front of us are basically replaced by a sum of money, and we can try to do it ourselves.
Realizing the commercial value of this technology, the school's teachers and students decided to start their own businesses. From the classroom to the entrepreneurial practice, from the laboratory to the factory, the experience of enterprise management and marketing model is very lacking for the team. In view of the entrepreneurial pain points of young people, Shandong has held the Shandong Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition for ten consecutive years, covering more than 200,000 people who have driven youth employment and entrepreneurship. Through participating in the "Challenge Cup" and "Internet +" and other series of innovation and entrepreneurship events, experts in many fields, financing institutions to demonstrate and negotiate the project, Hewei and the team company's business operation model has been continuously improved, and now, the company's products and processes have been successfully applied to domestic automobiles, home appliances, rail transit and other fields of enterprises. At the same time as holding various entrepreneurship competitions, Shandong has also set up a Qingchuang Qilu Investment Fund with a total scale of 1 billion yuan to provide project roadshows, equity investment, business guidance and other diversified services for potential young entrepreneurial enterprises.
Sheng Xia, deputy secretary of the Shandong Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Youth League: These measures have been formulated according to the pain points of youth entrepreneurship after a lot of research in the early stage, so this effect is still very good, and it has really been welcomed by entrepreneurial youth and entrepreneurial college students.
Create a "Dream City" for entrepreneurial youth
Through the development strategy of giving priority to talents, building an innovation and entrepreneurship platform, and strengthening financial support, Chengdu is building a "dream city" for entrepreneurial youth.
At an innovative technology company in Chengdu's High-tech West District, CEO Huang Shan is testing the company's new products with employees. In 2021, the company began to get involved in the field of unmanned delivery, and the product being tested is the fully autonomous delivery service robot to be launched this year.
Huang Shan, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China: At present, we are equivalent to the indoor and outdoor heat switching positioning navigation system and indoor and outdoor terrain adaptation model has been completed research and development, the next stage we are mainly the output of the whole machine. This year, we plan to expand the number of robots to more than 3,000 units and land in more than 1,000 office buildings across the country.
Huang Shan, who is studying for a doctoral degree in mechanical engineering at Chengdu University of Electronic Science and Technology, has led the school's robot team to win the highest award in domestic and foreign robot competitions for many times. After 5 years of development, Huangshan company has become a high-tech enterprise with 350 technical patents and hundreds of technical secrets, and its robots are sold to 21 provinces and more than 30 cities in china, serving more than 30 million consumers, and is the enterprise with the highest market share in the field of mobile retail. Huang shan said that all this is inseparable from Chengdu's support for youth innovation and entrepreneurship.
Huang Shan, a doctoral student in mechanical engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China: The first is the support of talents, there are enterprises specifically for artificial intelligence, machine humans, targeted for us to send talents, including the establishment of smooth channels for cooperation with universities; second, it is very important to support funds; the third is the application scenario support, in this part of Chengdu is very open and active.
In addition to one-on-one support, Chengdu has also set up various innovation and entrepreneurship incubation platforms in conjunction with multiple departments to provide a full range of services for entrepreneurial youth. Founded in 2013, Chengdu Entrepreneurship College relies on Chengdu Vocational and Technical College to provide young entrepreneurs with "one-stop" services from venue to mentor. Li Jinlong, a sophomore at Chengdu Vocational and Technical College, returned to school in 2020 after retiring from the army and founded a company with his classmates to develop a mist machine. Chengdu Entrepreneurship Academy not only provides them with a free place to start a business, but also actively helps them apply for various funds and policy support. In March 2021, the third generation of intelligent non-pulsed mist machine developed by Li Jinlong's team was officially launched, and at the end of that year, it achieved sales of 1.07 million.
Li Jinlong, a sophomore at Chengdu Vocational and Technical College: Chengdu Entrepreneurship College also invited some technical experts and experts in company operation to give us guidance, and then after our company developed products, Chengdu Entrepreneurship College is also actively connecting product processing companies for us.
Zheng Yingsong, director of the Project Incubation Center of Chengdu Entrepreneurship College of Chengdu Vocational and Technical College: Since its establishment, chengdu entrepreneurship college has incubated an average of about 30 college student start-up enterprises every year, with an output value of more than 250 million yuan. At present, it has successfully incubated 6 high-tech enterprises, 1 new third board listed enterprise, and 1 "gazelle enterprise" in Chengdu.
Yan Ming, director of the Youth Development Department of the Chengdu Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League: Constantly improve the function of supply and demand docking of our one-stop service platform, and constantly develop some financial service products in our debt, angel round, equity and other aspects, and completely solve the problem of financing difficulties and expensive financing for our young people.
Central Committee of the Communist Youth League: Start-up funds, etc. are the main difficulties
The "China Youth Entrepreneurship Development Report 2021" released by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League pointed out that compared with the world's major economies, China's entrepreneurship level still has a large room for development. Affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, domestic small and medium-sized enterprises and self-employed entrepreneurs have been more obviously affected. According to the survey data, entrepreneurial funds, social resources and knowledge reserves are the main difficulties faced by young people in entrepreneurship. Increasing the support of preferential tax policies for entrepreneurship and simplifying administrative approval procedures are the main demands of more than 60% of young entrepreneurs.
