Nearly six years have passed since the start of the trade war.
All content in this article is based on official and reliable sources, and the specific information is detailed at the end of the article.
As the first "victim" of sanctions, ZTE has embarked on the road of independent research and development.
So, what about other technologies?
You must know that at the beginning of ZTE's sanctions, "Science and Technology Daily" summarized 35 technologies that we were "stuck" at that time.
According to the information retrieved so far, at least 21 technologies have broken through the obstacles in the mainland.
Others, there is not much information retrieved on the Internet, maybe it is under development, or maybe it is inconvenient to make it public.
The progress of these four technologies requires our continuous attention.
Lithography machines and chips
The two technologies of lithography machine and chip occupy the first and second positions among the 35 "neck" technologies disclosed in 2018, which is enough to show their importance.
In the past, as long as we wanted to use electronic devices, chips were indispensable.
What makes the chip work is inseparable from the "strange" lines on the top.
The drawing of these patterns needs to be completed by lithography machines, especially nanoscale chips.
The Netherlands is a major manufacturer of lithography machines, with more than half of the world's lithography machines coming from here.
Thanks to the research that has been done thoroughly, the machines made in the Netherlands are also the most advanced in the world.
In fact, Japan also has a production line, but it is still a little worse than the technology of the Netherlands, but it is also good in the world.
However, in 2018, the world's only two suppliers of high-quality lithography machines, responded to the call of "big brother" and restricted the export of lithography machines to the mainland.
The purpose of the United States is simple, China does not have this technology, then it can only produce low-quality chips.
If you want high-end chips, you have to import them from other countries, and they restrict exports along with chips.
It is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice, no matter how strong China's other technologies are, there is nothing without chips.
However, the emergence of Huawei's superconducting quantum chip is like a slap in the face, and the United States is caught off guard.
This technology replaces the previous line transmission and uses the collision between quantums for information processing.
There is no doubt that this technology has broken through our problems in high-end chip manufacturing, which is really remarkable!
Quite dramatically, on the 26th of this month, Dutch Prime Minister Rutte is about to start his visit to China.
According to Reuters, this is the first visit to China by a Dutch government official since the export of lithography machines was restricted, and it was also visited by the prime minister in person.
It is likely that the conversation of this meeting is that the Netherlands does not want to respond to the "ban" anymore.
You know, the Dutch government has also suffered a lot over the years.
On the one hand, they had to follow in the footsteps of the "big brother" and restrict the export of lithography machines to China.
On the other hand, this policy has caused several domestic lithography machine manufacturers to complain.
Producers are of course not happy to lose China's huge market if they want to make money, so they frequently put pressure on their governments.
Some even announced that they were moving out of the Netherlands, because Dutch policies restricted the development of businesses.
Especially after China broke through the technical barriers, this call has become stronger.
From the reaction of the Netherlands, we can see how powerful Huawei's superconducting quantum chip is.
Breakthroughs are a good thing, but we must not let our guard down, and more in-depth research is ongoing.
In addition to lithography machines and chips, what technologies do we need to break through?
biotechnology
Do you have such a question, why are the names of drugs always so strange?
There are some rare words written on the packaging that most people don't recognize, and I can't read them, and I can't read them.
In fact, this is because most of these drugs are Western medicines, and the mainland's "New Drug Approval Measures" stipulates that drugs should be named according to their ingredients.
The ingredients of Western medicine are all Latin, so when we transliterate them, it will naturally become a difficult name to pronounce and remember.
It can also be seen from here how powerful biotechnology is abroad, and the medical field is a major intuitive embodiment of biotechnology.
In fact, World War II and the aftermath of World War II were a period of great explosion in biological genetic research.
There is a cruel theory that it is because enough biological samples were obtained during this period, and it is not difficult to guess why.
All in all, it relied on the safe domestic environment of the United States at the time, so it became the birthplace of modern biotechnology.
At least half of the world's publicly traded biotech companies are from the United States, not to mention the biological patents they own.
However, because we were affected by the war, biotechnology started relatively late, and the research was not as in-depth as some countries that started early.
Especially a few days ago, the term "X virus" appeared on the hot search, which caused many people to panic.
As early as 2018, the WHO proposed the concept of "virus X", which refers to a deadly infectious virus that could emerge in the future with the close global connection.
Therefore, the field of biotechnology cannot be ignored.
In addition to the field of biotechnology, industrial robots are also an area to be developed.
Industrial robots
A research team at the University of Washington in the United States published a study in The Lancet on the 20th of this month.
The study shows that, except for some backward countries, the world is facing the dilemma of "childlessness", and the decline in fertility will continue.
If this situation does not ease, labor will inevitably become a "hot commodity" in the future.
In recent years, the fertility rate in China has been obvious to all, and the demographic dividend is disappearing.
Although the labor shortage is not obvious now, we have to prepare for a rainy day.
In fact, many countries are concentrating on the research of industrial robots to realize the unmanned construction of factories.
The mainland's research on industrial robots began in the 80s of the last century, which is also lagging behind some European and American countries.
But fortunately, with the enhancement of our scientific and technological capabilities in recent years, the field of industrial robots is still developing well.
However, because there is no labor shortage in the mainland, there are still some obstacles to the marketization of industrial robots.
However, this is an area that is "beneficial for a thousand years", and the state has also given some support and subsidies.
Hopefully, our enterprises in the field of industrial robots can come to the exciting news as soon as possible.
epilogue
In fact, in order to solve the problem of "stuck neck", our country has been on the move.
Including escorting scientific and technological innovation enterprises, reducing or exempting relevant taxes according to regulations;
Relax restrictions on scientific research institutions, give them more autonomy, encourage innovation, and reward innovation.
Researchers are also working day and night, believing that as long as they are given some time.
We will be able to keep up with the world and be at the forefront of technological innovation.
