Chinese path to modernization is an opportunity for the whole world
"The concept of Chinese path to modernization has aroused the expectations of the Chinese people and has received worldwide responses." Martin Jacques, a famous British scholar and China expert, said at the "2023 China Singapore Finance and Economics Annual Conference" hosted by China News Service and hosted by China News Network that Chinese path to modernization is not just a slogan, it reflects the development status and future prospects of Chinese society.
Video: Martin Jacques: Chinese path to modernization breaks the logic of western colonialism to provide opportunities for the world Martin Jacques believes that for a long time, "modernization" is basically equivalent to "western style modernization", but China has achieved success in modernization by taking its own path, which is in line with its own national conditions and has strong Chinese characteristics. Without this strong domestic characteristic, China would find it difficult to achieve today's success. "China's goal is not to achieve narrow economic and technological modernization, because ultimately, modernization is for the people and must be in line with their interests."
Martin Jacques said that an important feature of Chinese path to modernization is that it is an opportunity for the whole world. It has a unique methodology, which is different from the past model of colonialism or imperialism. China and other developing countries are gradually carrying out self innovation, and in the process, it has changed the lives of the vast majority of people. From a global perspective, the narrative of Chinese path to modernization is totally different from that of western history.
Video: Stephen Perry: Chinese path to modernization can be used as a model for other countries in the world. Stephen Perry, chairman of the 48 group clubs in the UK, pointed out that the path of Chinese path to modernization is unique. Its most prominent feature is its way to achieve modernization. After careful planning and reasonable layout, and the implementation of each stage is also under effective supervision to make timely adjustments, China has reached the first-class modernization level in just 40 years, which is unprecedented in world history.
"Because it is the first time in the world that such a process of modernization has occurred in China, the Chinese government understands that every step of development must be carefully planned and coordinated to adjust the plan." Stephen Perry believes that the CPC is very capable of making full use of resources to do the right thing. China's approach is more to rely on the people to promote modernization, and take action according to China's actual national conditions. If other countries and regions want to follow China's successful modernization process, they can learn from the model of Chinese path to modernization, without waiting for foreign large enterprises to enter their own markets.

Promote Chinese path to modernization with high-quality development
High quality development is one of the essential requirements of Chinese path to modernization and has strategic, overall and long-term significance in the process of Chinese path to modernization. How to continue to promote Chinese path to modernization with high-quality development?
Bi Jingquan, member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Deputy Director of the Economic Committee, as well as Executive Vice Chairman of the China Center for International Economic Exchange, believes that high-quality development must rely on innovation. High quality development is innovation driven development. We should not only understand innovation from the strategic perspective of the Party's mission and tasks in the new era and new journey, and the primary task of building a socialist modernized country, but also from the practical needs of supporting development and maintaining security. We should accelerate the implementation of the innovation driven development strategy, accelerate the implementation of the major deployment of building a strong science and technology country, make innovation an important driving force for fully implementing the new development concept and promoting high-quality development, and become a strong support for building a modern strong country in all respects. Let innovation play a key leading role in building a new development pattern.
Bi Jingquan suggested that to encourage innovation, it is necessary to strengthen basic research, highlight originality, and encourage free exploration; It is necessary to implement incentive mechanisms for individual sharing of benefits among scientific researchers and stimulate their innovative vitality; We must break down institutional barriers and strive to create an ecological environment that encourages innovation; We must strengthen intellectual property protection and crack down severely on infringement, counterfeiting, and illegal activities.
Sun Dongsheng, member of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, deputy secretary-general, and vice chairman of the Central Committee of Civil Construction, pointed out that high-quality development and Chinese path to modernization both need a common support point, which is the modernization level of the industrial system and the establishment of a high-quality modern industrial system.
Sun Dongsheng suggested that to promote the modernization level of industries, market demand should be used to drive the development of the industrial system, the level of the industrial chain should be improved to accelerate the construction of the industrial ecosystem, the collaboration between science and technology, enterprises and research institutes should be used to promote the construction of an innovative ecosystem, and the formulation of standards in advantageous areas should be accelerated to consolidate industrial advantages.
Video: Gao Peiyong: High quality development must bid farewell to habitual thinking. Gao Peiyong, Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and Secretary of the Party Committee of the University of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that high-quality development must bid farewell to habitual thinking. We must use a concept, ideology, strategy, and discourse system that matches high-quality development to discuss issues in the stage of high-quality development, and we must not make jokes like "Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong". We cannot enter the stage of high-quality development with our bodies, and our minds are still stuck in a stage of rapid growth.
Gao Peiyong pointed out that since promoting high-quality development is in line with the path of economic development and an objective necessity for the new journey of comprehensively building a socialist modernized country, it is worthwhile to bear the pain of short-term ideological transformation and pay the price of temporary adjustment measures. On the contrary, it is highly undesirable to look around or change course due to local or immediate issues. So, breaking free from short-term changes and focusing on the long-term trend and historical laws of the Chinese economy, we must firmly believe in long-term achievements and promote high-quality development with confidence and determination.

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that Chinese path to modernization is a modernization in which man and nature coexist in harmony. Promoting green and low-carbon economic and social development is a key link in achieving high-quality development.
China has become the country with the fastest improvement rate of air quality in the world. The installed capacity of wind power, optoelectronics, hydropower, and biomass power generation has remained the world's first, and the production and sales scale of new energy vehicles has ranked first in the world for 8 consecutive years. China has become the country with the fastest and largest growth in forest resources, i.e. carbon sinks, in the world.
"Realizing green, low-carbon, and high-quality development is a complex project and long-term task." Hu Jun also stated that the next step is to accelerate the formation of green production and lifestyle methods that are conducive to reducing pollution, reducing carbon emissions, and enhancing efficiency; Promote collaborative efficiency enhancement in multiple fields such as industry, transportation, urban-rural development, agriculture, and ecological construction; Improve the collaborative governance level of pollution prevention and control in areas such as air, water, soil, and solid waste; Carry out multi-level collaborative innovation for pollution and carbon reduction in regions, cities, industrial parks, enterprises, and other areas; Strengthen support and guarantees such as technology, regulatory standards, and management policies.
Video: Zhang Yansheng: Chinese path to modernization needs to overcome three traps. Zhang Yansheng, chief researcher of the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, reminded that Chinese path to modernization needs to overcome three traps: Thucydides trap, Samuelson trap, and Goldberg trap. The next step to promote high-quality development and Chinese path to modernization is to seize the opportunity of the fourth industrial revolution.
Zhang Yansheng suggested starting from reality, not seeking the most advanced, seeking the most suitable, not seeking the optimal solution, seeking a satisfactory solution. Keep up with basic technology, increase investment in new infrastructure, open up competition in application scenarios and platforms, and leverage strengths and avoid weaknesses in connectivity and terminal consumption.
In Martin Jacques's view, the Chinese economy can continue to grow and achieve high-quality development because China's innovation strength is very strong and will become even stronger in the future.
The "2023 China Singapore Finance and Economics Annual Conference" was hosted by China News Service, hosted by China News Network, and jointly organized by the State owned Assets Report magazine, Tsinghua University China Development Planning Research Institute, Guoshi Express, ChinaOverseas Chinese Network, China Singapore Video, and China Singapore Jingwei, with the theme of "high-quality development and Chinese path to modernization".
