In today's world, the rapid development of science and technology has become a key driving force for social progress. In this science and technology competition, with its superb innovation ability and perseverance, China is rapidly catching up with the former "big brother" United States, and comprehensively subverting the world's science and technology map!
Recently, an American scholar was amazed by the country's achievements in scientific and technological development after a months-long field trip to China. He was originally wary and skeptical about China, but what he saw with his own eyes dispelled his doubts and applauded China's scientific and technological strength from the bottom of his heart.
The expert first felt the huge visual impact brought to him by China's modern infrastructure construction. New airports, a network of highways, towering skyscrapers, and ubiquitous 5G coverage are all examples of the strength of China's infrastructure.
What is particularly impressive is that in the field of communications infrastructure, China has far surpassed the United States and the rest of the world in development. China not only has the world's largest 5G network, but also has set new world records in many indicators such as network speed, coverage, and number of end users.
This makes experts sigh: the importance of communication infrastructure to today's society is self-evident, and it has laid the fundamental foundation for the development of emerging technology industries. Leading the world in this field obviously means that China will occupy a more favorable strategic commanding heights in the future scientific and technological competition.
Innovation brings new experiences to life
During this expert's trip to China, he personally felt the new changes brought by China's cutting-edge technology to people's lives.
Walking on the street, he can appreciate the incomparable convenience that mobile payment brings to life. "It's so convenient to scan the code and pay immediately, and you don't have to carry your banknotes around anymore!" As an innovative technology originating from China, mobile payment has spread to all aspects of China, not only greatly improving the efficiency of life, but also gradually "exiting" cash.
The expert was also surprised to find that many innovative applications such as Douyin (TikTok) and HarmonyOS mobile phone operating systems, which were originally popular in the United States, actually originated from China's scientific and technological innovation! Even social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook can only find their own alternative versions in China.
These giant-level technology companies and products are outstanding representatives of China's innovation strength. They not only reflect China's outstanding scientific research capabilities in cutting-edge fields such as the Internet, artificial intelligence, and mobile communications, but also deliver the latest scientific and technological innovations to thousands of households with tangible products and services, changing people's lifestyles.
Technology makes life smarter and more convenient
In addition to experiencing the new experience brought by China's scientific and technological innovation, the expert also personally felt the convenience brought by technology to life in his daily life.
For example, in the neighborhood where he lives, facial recognition systems have become ubiquitous. In and out of the community, only facial recognition is needed to automatically open the door, and there is no need to hold password cards, keys, etc. Another example, based on big data analysis and artificial intelligence technology, the security monitoring system of the community can detect abnormal situations in the first time and link with the police to ensure the personal and property safety of residents to the greatest extent.
All this is the result of the seamless integration of cutting-edge technology and life. Disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things have made all aspects of society move towards intelligence, automation, and efficiency.
The expert sincerely praised that China is fully embracing scientific and technological innovation with unprecedented determination and intensity, and promoting the deep integration of science and technology with economic and social development. This will certainly inject new and strong momentum into China's social development and release tremendous vitality for reform and innovation.
China's technological prowess is surpassing that of the United States
Looking at what the expert has seen and heard in China, he has to redefine China as a backward developing country because of preconceived notions. But in fact, the development and progress of China's scientific and technological undertakings have been changing with each passing day, and its strength in some fields has even completely surpassed that of the United States!
Looking back at the history of competition between China and the United States in the development of science and technology, the United States initially occupied an absolute dominant position for a long time. However, with the deepening of reform and opening up, China has caught up.
Today, China has overtaken the United States in many dimensions such as infrastructure construction, cutting-edge technology research and development, and popularization of science and technology applications, and has become a well-deserved "global first echelon".
Even though there is still a gap between the two sides in some segments, the gap is narrowing year by year. There is reason to believe that in the near future, China will catch up with and surpass the United States in an all-round way and redefine the map of world scientific and technological competition.
It is undeniable that the United States will remain a formidable adversary. But China has put pressure on it to face up to its technological challenges. The world-renowned Stanford University has begun to teach the success stories of Chinese technology companies in textbooks, which shows that Americans have had to re-examine the strength of Chinese technology.
All this change is also due to China's innovative ideas. Unlike the United States, which pursues monopolistic innovation, China advocates the concept of open, inclusive, and win-win innovation, so that innovation can fully unleash vitality and promote scientific and technological development.
This foreign expert sincerely admires that on the road of scientific and technological innovation, China has always had an open mind, the determination to pursue and the fighting spirit of never giving up, and will surely achieve rapid development!
In general, China's remarkable achievements in the rapid development of science and technology have attracted the attention of the world. China has not only rapidly narrowed the gap with the United States, but has also shown overwhelming superiority in some areas.
