Here, on behalf of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, I wish to extend warm congratulations to all the award-winners, and convey cordial greetings and high regard to all the science and technology professionals in China. My deep appreciation also goes to foreign experts who have participated in and supported the development of science and technology in China.

剛剛過去的一年，面對復雜嚴峻的國內外環境，在以習近平同志為核心的黨中央堅強領導下，我國經濟社會發展取得了顯著成就，科技戰線大事喜事多、創新成果多。黨中央、國務院召開全國科技創新大會，明確提出要建設世界科技強國。創新驅動發展戰略深入實施，《國家創新驅動發展戰略綱要》頒布施行，面向2030年的科技創新重大項目部署啟動，科技體制改革和管理方式創新加快推進，以增加知識價值為導向的分配政策制定實施，有效調動了廣大科技人員的積極性。
Last year, thanks to the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, China made notable strides in economic and social development despite complex and grim internal and external environment. Major milestones were recorded in fields of science and technology and numerous outcomes in innovation were achieved. The CPC Central Committee and State Council convened the National Science, Technology and Innovation Conference, issuing a clarion call to build China into a science and technology giant. Vigorous efforts were made to implement the innovation-driven development strategy, such as the promulgation of the Outline of the National Strategy on Innovation-driven Development and the launch of programs for major science, technology and innovation projects toward 2030. Reform of science and technology institutions and innovation in management were accelerated, and a distribution policy that puts premium on the value of knowledge was introduced, which effectively incentivized science researchers.

一批具有標志性意義的重大科技成果涌現，不少達到國際先進水平。神舟十一號載人飛船與天宮二號空間試驗室成功交會對接，航天員實現中期駐留，世界最大單口徑射電望遠鏡建成使用，世界首顆量子科學實驗衛星“墨子號”發射升空，使用中國自主研發芯片的超級計算機“神威 太湖之光”再次刷新世界紀錄。科技創新成果加速轉化，大眾創業、萬眾創新蓬勃興起，創新作為引領發展的第一動力作用更加顯現。中國創新令世界矚目、讓人民自豪。中華大地在創新中展現出勃勃生機與活力。
Significant breakthroughs were made in science and technology, many of which reached an internationally advanced level. Let me list a few. The Shenzhou 11 manned spacecraft successfully docked with Tiangong 2 space lab and astronauts managed a medium-term stay in space. The world's largest single aperture spherical telescope went into operation. The world's first quantum science experimental satellite "Mozi" was launched. The supercomputer "Sunway TaihuLight" powered by a home-made chip held the current world record. Outcomes of science, technology and innovation are now commercialized at a faster pace. The initiative of mass entrepreneurship and innovation gained a strong momentum. Innovation as the primary driving force is exerting a notably positive impact on growth. "Innovated in China" won international recognition, made the Chinese people proud and unleashed enormous energy that invigorated the whole nation.

當前，世界新一輪科技革命和產業變革孕育興起，搶占未來制高點的國際競爭日趨激烈。我國經濟結構深度調整、新舊動能接續轉換，已到了只有依靠創新驅動才能持續發展的新階段，比以往任何時候都更加需要強大的科技創新力量。必須認真學習貫徹習近平總書記系列重要講話精神，把創新擺在國家發展全局的核心位置，以新發展理念為引領，以供給側結構性改革為主線，深入實施創新驅動發展戰略，加快培育壯大新動能、改造提升傳統動能，推動經濟保持中高速增長、邁向中高端水平。
A new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is in the making, further sharpening international competition to stay ahead of the curve. China has entered a new phase of economic development featuring deep structural adjustments and renewal of driving forces. Only through innovation can China sustain the strong momentum of development. More than ever the powerful force of science, technology and innovation is called for. We must conscientiously study and act on the thinking laid out in the important speeches of General Secretary Xi Jinping, put innovation at the center of development and follow the new vision on development. Specifically we will focus on supply-side structural reform, deepen the implementation of innovation-driven development, and transform traditional drivers of growth while fostering new ones, with a view to maintaining a medium-high rate of growth and reaching a medium-high level of development.

我們要全面提高科技創新能力，筑牢國家核心競爭力的基石。瞄準世界科技前沿，緊扣經濟社會需求，在戰略必爭領域前瞻部署、超前研究，推進國家科技重大項目、重大工程和重大基礎設施建設，夯實科技創新的基礎支撐。
We will build up the capability of scientific and technological innovation across the board to lay a solid foundation for our country's core competitiveness. We should closely follow frontier trends in science and technology, and make early and visionary planning for research and application in focal areas in light of the needs of our economy and society. National scientific and technological programs and projects and key infrastructure must be implemented and built to support innovations in science and technology.

要大力加強基礎研究和原始創新，充分發揮科研院所和高校的主力軍作用，建立長期穩定的支持機制，鼓勵從事基礎研究和原始創新的科研人員潛心研究，可以十年不鳴，爭取一鳴驚人。要建立以企業為主體、以市場為導向的技術創新機制，引導社會各方面力量投入創新領域。推動開放式科技創新，深化國際科技合作，利用互聯網等新平臺新模式，加強產學研協同，集聚優化創新要素，提高科技創新和成果轉化效率。
We must strengthen basic research and original innovation, give full play to the central role of scientific research institutes and universities, and develop long-term and stable supporting mechanisms for researchers engaged in these areas to delve deep into their areas of endeavor. It is by no means easy for them to work quietly and thanklessly for long years. Yet their efforts will be adequately rewarded once the breakthrough comes. To encourage social input in innovation, a mechanism needs to be put in place to encourage companies to play a leading role based on market rules. We should also encourage greater openness in scientific and technological innovation by enhancing international cooperation and leveraging the Internet and other new platforms and models to develop synergy among industries, universities and research institutes. We should pool and upgrade factors of innovation and raise the efficiency of commercialization of innovation and research outcomes.

我們要深化科技體制改革，充分調動科技人員積極性。人才是科技創新最關鍵的因素。必須充分尊重科技人才，保障科技人才權益，最大限度激發科技人才的創造活力。要深入推進科技領域簡政放權、放管結合、優化服務改革，推行科研管理清單制度，實施更加方便簡約有效的規則，賦予科研院所和高校更大的科研自主權，賦予創新領軍人才更大的人財物支配權。要加大成果處置、收益分配、股權激勵、人才流動、兼職兼薪等政策落實力度，使創新者得到應有榮譽和回報，增強科技人員的持久創造動力。
We will deepen institutional reform for scientific and technological development and fully motivate professionals working in these fields. Talents hold the key to innovation. We must give full respect to scientists, engineers and technicians, guarantee their rights and interests, and tap their potential to the full. The government must further streamline science and technology administration, delegate powers and provide better services. A checklist-based management approach should be taken to strengthen and simplify rules, whereby greater autonomy will be given to institutes and universities in their research activities, and greater say to leading professionals of innovation in allocating research personnel, funding and resources. The government will vigorously implement policies regarding the usage of research outcomes, distribution of research yields, equity incentives, mobility of talents and permission for researchers to take part-time roles and be remunerated for that. All these will help to duly recognize and reward innovators, thus providing long-term motivation for scientific and technological research and innovation.

我們要推動大眾創業、萬眾創新，著力激發全社會創新潛能。人民群眾是歷史的創造者，也是推動創新的根本力量。我們有1.7億多受過高等教育或擁有專業技能的人才，蘊藏著巨大的創新潛能，這是我國發展用之不竭的最大“富礦”。要不拘一格用好各方面創新人才，集眾智、匯眾力，提高社會創新效率。既要支持專業人才在創新上不斷突破，也要激發普通民眾的創造潛力；既要支持本土人才勇攀高峰，也要吸引海歸人才、外國人才來華創業創新。我們要以海納百川、求賢若渴的氣度，為各類創新人才施展才華提供更大空間、更廣闊的舞臺。
We will comprehensively improve our supply capacity for innovation and facilitate the application and integration of scientific achievements into all sectors and fields to speed up the shift to new growth drivers, which are derived both from the emerging industries and the upgrading of traditional sectors. Driven by scientific innovations, the emerging industries in China are thriving, spearheaded by new forms of business, like the digital economy, sharing economy and platform economy. Proper regulation must be exercised to ensure healthy development of these new sectors. Meanwhile, the new technologies, new forms of business and new models must be integrated into the first, second and tertiary industries at a faster pace, to infuse traditional industries with new vitality.

我們要全面提高創新供給能力，推動科技創新成果向各行業各領域覆蓋融合，加快新舊動能轉換。新動能既來自新興產業成長，也來自于傳統產業的改造提升。在科技創新的推動下，我國新興產業快速成長，數字經濟、分享經濟、平臺經濟等新業態方興未艾，對這些產業要審慎監管，使之健康發展。同時，要促進新技術、新業態、新模式加快與一二三產業融合發展，推動實體經濟升級，使傳統產業煥發新的生機與活力。要實施普惠性創新政策，落實和完善研發費用加計扣除、固定資產加速折舊等措施，支持企業與高校、科研院所、創客合作建立協同創新平臺，推廣“小核心、大協作”的“雙創”模式，促進源頭創新、成果轉化、市場開發齊頭并進，重點圍繞提升產業競爭力、滿足多層次消費需求和助力破解醫療、環保等領域民生難題，大力研發新品、多出優品、打造精品，著力提升“中國制造”的品質和“中國創造”的影響力。
We need to introduce extensive policy incentives to encourage innovation. Such measures as additional deduction of R&D spending in taxable income and accelerated depreciation of fixed assets should be better implemented. Greater support should be given to companies in setting up collaborative innovation platforms with universities, research institutes and makers. We should popularize the innovation approach based on core-group innovation enabled by wider circles of collaboration. We need to strive for parallel progress of innovation at the source, commercialization of R&D results and market development, and aim to develop more new, high-quality products that boost the competitiveness of our industries, meet the diverse consumer demand and help tackle thorny issues such as in medical care and environmental protection, with a view to raising the quality of Chinese manufacturing and influence of products "Created in China".

我們要加強知識產權保護，打造良好創新生態環境。保護知識產權就是保護和激勵創新。要開展知識產權綜合管理改革試點，構建知識產權創造、保護、運用體系，嚴厲打擊侵權假冒行為，使創新者的合法權益得到切實有力的保護，使知識產權更多轉化為現實生產力。要努力營造支持創新、追求卓越的社會氛圍，讓尊重勞動、尊重知識、尊重人才、尊重創造蔚然成風，讓人人皆可創新、處處是創新之地，促進科學創新精神與企業家精神、工匠精神相結合，形成推動創新發展的強大動力。
We need to enhance protection of intellectual property rights and foster an innovation-friendly environment. Protecting intellectual property is protecting and incentivizing innovation. We will pilot integrated management of IPR, establish a system for IPR creation, protection and application, and crack down on IPR infringement and counterfeiting to safeguard the legal rights and interests of innovators and turn more intellectual property into real productivity. We need to foster a social environment that embraces innovation and excellence, and respects hard work, knowledge, talent and creativity. We should enable each and every one to innovate wherever possible, and celebrate the spirit of innovation together with entrepreneurship and workmanship to generate strong impetus for innovative development.

同志們，朋友們，科技改變世界，創新決定未來。讓我們更加緊密地團結在以習近平同志為核心的黨中央周圍，倍加珍惜榮譽，切實擔當使命，奮力創造輝煌，推動科技事業更好更快發展，以優異成績迎接黨的十九大勝利召開，為實現“兩個一百年”奮斗目標和中華民族偉大復興的中國夢、建設富強民主文明和諧的社會主義現代化國家，作出新的更大貢獻。
Comrades,friends,

As science and technology change the world, innovation shapes the future. Let us rally more closely around the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, cherish the honor the country has conferred, conscientiously fulfill our mission and strive for greater achievements. Attaining better and faster progress of our scientific and technological endeavors would be the best way for you to greet the opening of the 19th CPC National Congress. By joining hands we will make fresh and greater contribution to the realization of the "two centenary goals" and the Chinese dream of the great national renewal and to the building of a prosperous, strong, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious and modern socialist country.
