Analysis of the 14th Five-Year Plan by the German patent agency econsight is quite interesting. It analyzes China's future scientific research and technology directions from a patent perspective, mainly comparing the main frontier technology areas in patents between China, the US, and Europe:
·
First, Europe is no longer as strong as before. The small blue balls in the figure are completely behind the small red balls and small flower balls of China and the US.
Second, China's leading patents are mainly concentrated in industrial technology, nuclear industry, materials, and AI big data application areas.
Third, the US's leading patents are mainly concentrated in biotechnology, high-end semiconductors, medical technology, and gene editing, among others.
·
Looking at this comparison chart, Europe is about to decline, while China and the US each have their strengths. However, China's strengths are more practical and industrialized, while the US's strengths are hard to implement, and even if implemented, they need to cooperate with China.
·
Here, all refer to patents, and these are high-quality world-class patents, not the kind of random garbage patents that anyone can publish as we might think.
·
Of course, regardless of everything, overall, it basically reflects the fields where China and the US lead. In five years, China will not only continue to lead in its existing high-level fields, but even achieve an overwhelming lead, and will also basically catch up in other fields. There's no problem. The achievements of Made in China 2025 have already fully proved this.
