Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, May 15 (Xinhua) -- Through a curve of R&D investment growth, we can see what kind of innovation vitality enterprises have.
1.56 trillion yuan - this is the report card of R&D investment of mainland listed companies in 2023, a year-on-year increase of about 10%.
Looking at the long-term axis, this is a continuous upward curve: 0.99 trillion yuan, 1.24 trillion yuan, 1.42 trillion yuan, and 1.56 trillion yuan...... According to statistics from Xinhua Finance, from 2020 to 2023, the R&D investment of listed companies has increased year by year.
In this curve, what kind of efforts are contained in the company's efforts to lay the foundation and store energy, and what kind of economic pulses can be touched towards the "new"?
Let's see more detailed data. A few days ago, with the completion of the disclosure of the annual reports of more than 5,300 domestic listed companies, the data released by the Shanghai, Shenzhen and Beijing stock exchanges released a positive signal of innovation vitality -
In 2023, the total R&D investment of listed companies on the main board of the Shanghai Stock Exchange will be nearly 900 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5%; R&D investment of listed companies on the Beijing Stock Exchange was 8.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.37%; The R&D investment of listed companies on the ChiNext Board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange exceeded 193.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 10.19% - both achieved growth for three consecutive years.
R&D intensity, that is, the proportion of R&D investment in revenue, reflects the innovation strength of the enterprise. The R&D intensity of the Science and Technology Innovation Board, which is a concentration of "hard technology" companies, is 10.87%, the highest among several trading sectors. Among them, 83 companies have exceeded 20% in R&D intensity for three consecutive years. In 2023, the R&D investment of companies on the Science and Technology Innovation Board will exceed 150 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.3%, further demonstrating the vitality of innovation.
The development of new quality productivity is an intrinsic requirement for promoting high-quality development. Whether it is a traditional industry, an emerging industry, or a future industry, enterprises must cultivate "new" forces, and increasing R&D investment is a key part.
Nowadays, enterprises account for more than 7% of the R&D investment in the whole society, how to better play their role as the main body of innovation?
First of all, you must be willing to vote. Enterprises with good profits and orders are often willing to spend money on R&D to gain a competitive advantage through innovation.
CATL's R&D investment in the past five years has totaled about 50 billion yuan, and its net profit in 2023 will increase by more than 4% year-on-year, ranking first in the world in the power battery market share for seven consecutive years.
The "big players" of R&D investment growth are often the industries with outstanding performance. Xinhua financial data shows that in the first quarter, the electronics, transportation, automobile and other industries with the highest growth rate of R&D investment also ranked among the top ten in net profit growth.
According to the data of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, in 2023, more than 8% of the R&D funds of the GEM will be invested in strategic emerging industries, and the R&D investment of the new generation of information technology industry, new energy and new energy vehicle industry, and high-end equipment manufacturing industry will increase by 6.44%, 16.91%, and 12.39% year-on-year respectively.
Secondly, you must have real skills. R&D investment should adhere to long-termism and constantly forge technical hard power.
Without the pursuit of "short, flat and fast", more scientific and technological achievements can be implemented into "gold". In 2023, China Mobile's R&D expenses will increase by nearly 6% year-on-year, and more than 450 AI capabilities have been precipitated, enabling more than 900 applications. ZTE's R&D investment in 2023 will exceed 26 billion yuan, and the company has applied for about 89,500 global patents......
Innovative enterprises represented by the "new three" are now leading the world trend.
There is a metaphor of "technology fish pond" in the industry: the self-developed technology of the enterprise is gathered in a "fish pond", and when the market needs it, one will be fished out. This shows the wisdom of innovation: combining its own advantages, aiming at customer needs, and keeping up with the needs of the times.
Innovation is inseparable from the "soft environment". Enterprises should work hard, and policies should also be forceful. The policy of "real money" has injected momentum into the innovation and development of enterprises.
The state will increase the additional deduction ratio of R&D expenses of eligible industry enterprises from 75% to 100%, and implement it as an institutional arrangement for a long time; Seven departments, including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, issued opinions to promote the innovation and development of future industries; The People's Bank of China has set up re-loans for scientific and technological innovation and technological transformation to encourage and guide financial institutions to increase financial support for small and medium-sized scientific and technological enterprises.
The deeper the roots of R&D are rooted, the more fertile the soil for the application scenario will be, and the more the tree of innovation will flourish. It is believed that more enterprises with "new" forces will inject more new momentum into China's economic development.
