On Monday afternoon, the press conference of the third session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference was held. The spokesperson of the conference, Liu Jieyi, introduced the relevant details of the conference to Chinese and foreign media and answered reporters' questions. Among the topics, those related to science and technology such as humanoid robots and "cyber fireworks" accounted for a considerable proportion, and received widespread attention from the media. It can be expected that technological innovation will be one of the most heated topics discussed during this year's two sessions. The innovation wave in Chinese society will be further showcased through the two sessions, with institutional innovation and technological innovation resonating together.

Liu said at the press conference that the development of the new quality productive forces is showing a thriving momentum. This comment has a very concrete and significant reflection in Chinese society. Since the beginning of this year, DeepSeek, a domestically produced large-scale model, has quickly emerged with its open-source model and cost advantages, attracting intense attention at home and abroad. Against this background, 29 of the 31 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in the Chinese mainland have listed AI as a priority in their government work reports, and 14 have prioritized robotics.

For example, Beijing focuses on the development of 20 future industries such as humanoid robots, and Guangdong Province proposes to deepen the application of "robot+" in key industrial fields. This demonstrates that various regions are competing with one another in the realm of technological innovation. The symposium on the private economy held in Beijing prior to the two sessions has provided new and powerful motivation to the business community, further strengthening the momentum of innovation-driven development.

The two sessions also mark the footprints of China's progress in new technologies. Looking back at last year's two sessions, the term "new quality productive forces" was included in the government work report for the first time and was listed as one of the top 10 major tasks. Over the past year, from top-level planning to local implementation, the momentum of new quality productive forces has continued to surge, sketching a new landscape for China's economy.

For example, in the commercial space sector, more than 10 municipalities and provinces, including Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong, have intensively introduced special support policies, leading to the formation of multiple commercial space industry clusters and the establishment of a comprehensive industrial system. The low-altitude economy is also emerging as a new growth track, with institutions predicting that China's low-altitude economy will reach a total market size of nearly 860 billion yuan by 2025. Meanwhile, cutting-edge fields such as artificial intelligence, biomanufacturing, and quantum technology continue to make breakthroughs.

More significantly, public interest in new quality productive forces is growing, and the strategy of innovation-driven development is becoming more deeply ingrained, effectively boosting social confidence. By firmly grasping technological innovation as the "key link," China is accelerating the cultivation and development of new quality productive forces to drive high-quality growth, following its own pace to form a positive cycle. The government continues to optimize policy environment, enterprises are accelerating technological innovation and product upgrades based on market demand, research institutions are strengthening fundamental research, and society at large is increasingly focused on and supportive of technological innovation. These are converging to drive the development of new quality productive forces. In the future, with the release of policy dividends and the enhancement of capabilities, the emergence of more talented individuals who are knowledgeable and closely connected to the market will make China's technological innovation even more promising.

On the same day, the 2025 Mobile World Conference, commonly known as MWC Barcelona, opened in Barcelona. Over 300 Chinese tech companies made their appearance at this event, becoming a striking sight. At this year's exhibition, companies like Huawei and ZTE will showcase cutting-edge technologies such as 6G research and artificial intelligence communications, while brands like Xiaomi and Honor will focus on innovations in the smart terminal ecosystem. This demonstrates the vitality of Chinese tech companies on the global stage and confirms the creative transformation of market forces into new quality productive forces. 

Although the exhibition booths at MWC Barcelona are thousands of miles away from the news hall of the two sessions, they reflect the rapid and steady development of China's technological innovation from different perspectives, providing an important window for the world to observe China's high-quality development.

The development of China's new quality productive forces requires both policy "coordinates" like the two sessions and global "staging grounds" such as the MWC Barcelona. As the global industrial chain undergoes deep restructuring and a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation converge, China's choice is clear and resolute: to unleash technological potential through institutional innovation, to amplify innovation benefits through open cooperation, and to lead technology toward positive outcomes with a responsible attitude. A China that adheres to high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement while deeply participating in global innovation governance will contribute greater wisdom and strength to global economic growth and technological progress.
