Praise for China｜In Anhui, feel the "little luck" brought by technological innovation
China Industry Network commentator Chen Wanyang
A wall-breaking machine that does not need to be plugged in, an air conditioner with a noise of only 16 decibels, flame-retardant protective textiles for firefighting... Recently, under the guidance of the Network Communication Bureau of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission and sponsored by the Cyberspace Administration of Anhui Provincial Committee, the "Looking at China in the First Year·Japan Jianghuai" online theme promotion activity was launched in Hefei. The interview team visited Hefei, Fuyang and other places to get a first-hand look at Anhui’s vibrant technological innovation and high-quality development.
The deepest feeling when seeing these products is that "technology creates a better life" has never been so concrete. Hard-core cutting-edge technologies, after being refined from the laboratory to the production line, are finally turned into objects within people's reach and enter thousands of households. Science and technology are doing good and improving people's livelihood, creating more warmth and fireworks.
It should be realized that it is not easy for a scientific and technological achievement to move from the laboratory into daily life. Technology research and development is only the starting point, and in the future, we must "make it" and "use it well" so that the product can withstand market testing. Among the companies visited by the interview team, some started in the laboratory, achieved technological breakthroughs through continuous investment and repeated innovation, and finally promoted the industrialization of the results; some took root in the traditional textile industry and cooperated with academician teams under the bridge of the government, allowing the collision of traditional industries and cutting-edge technology to create new possibilities. can; others keep a close eye on market demand and user pain points, and respond to changing consumer needs with rapid iterations... Different companies have different innovation and development paths, but the same goal is: scientific research and technological development, aiming at real needs, and implementing them into "little blessings" in people's lives.
Behind this, the test is not only the "single breakthrough" of a certain technology, but the coordinated operation of a whole set of innovation ecology. In recent years, Anhui has vigorously promoted the in-depth integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation, promoted the development of emerging industry clusters and the cultivation and expansion of future industries, accelerated the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and spawned many "golden dolls" of new productivity. From January to November 2025, the added value of designated industries in Anhui Province increased by 9.3%, which was 3.3 percentage points higher than that of the country, ranking third in the country. The number of technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises, the number of high-tech enterprises, and the number of specialized and new "little giant" enterprises rank 5th, 8th, and 7th in the country respectively; the artificial intelligence industry evaluation ranks 5th in the country, the production capacity of dynamic memory chips ranks first in the country, and the output and export of automobiles and new energy vehicles rank first in the country... Behind this set of data are more and more vivid cases of scientific and technological achievements moving from laboratories to production lines, and from concepts to reality.
Anhui's practice is also a microcosm of the continuous implementation of China's scientific and technological innovation. Measuring the value of innovation depends on the "high-end sophistication" in the laboratory and its "closeness" to public life - in recent years, my country's scientific and technological innovation has continued to benefit people's livelihood: the photovoltaic industry has brought clean energy into villages and cities, new energy vehicles have expanded new spaces for mobile life, and "artificial intelligence +" has brought many conveniences to work and daily life...
Through each product and each scene, we have seen Anhui’s pragmatic exploration of empowering industries with technology and responding to needs with innovation, and we have also seen the concrete and vivid appearance of high-quality development. This year is the first year of the “15th Five-Year Plan”. We look forward to more innovative achievements spanning regions and industries and benefiting more groups. We also look forward to the resonance of scientific and technological innovation and a better life, making the answer sheet of “Chinese-style modernization, people’s livelihood first” warmer and more practical.
