The Ministry of Science and Technology of China interprets the deployment of ＂deep sea, deep ground, deep space and deep blue＂

　　China news agency, Beijing, July 22 (Reporter Zhang Su) China’s "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" outlines the need to strengthen the strategic high-tech deployment in these four areas. At the routine briefing on the State Council policy held in Beijing on the 22nd, officials from the Ministry of Science and Technology of China made an interpretation.

　　Deep sea — — During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, a number of offshore equipment and offshore drilling platforms have been successfully developed, but there are still a lot of key technologies that need to be broken through in deep-sea resource exploration and national maritime rights and interests maintenance.

　　Xu Xu, director of the Innovation and Development Department of China’s Ministry of Science and Technology, said that one of the key points is to deploy the deep-sea space station, "to integrate and upgrade the system development and research of China’s deep-sea technology and equipment with systematic projects such as the deep-sea space station". In addition, the development of key marine equipment, deep-sea equipment and deep-sea sensor network will be strengthened.

　　Deeply — — In addition to the exploration and development of mineral resources and energy resources deep in the earth, it also includes the safe use of urban space, disaster reduction and prevention.

　　Xu Xu believes that the understanding of geology is very important. "The shallow layer is related to the construction of underground pipe network and infrastructure, and the deep layer is related to the development and utilization of important national strategic resources and energy."

　　Deep space — — It is necessary to carry out manned spaceflight project and lunar exploration project step by step, and also deploy and start the first Mars exploration to promote deep space exploration.

　　Xu Xu said, for example, that the the State Council Standing Committee of China recently adopted the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" for national scientific and technological innovation, and launched a number of new major scientific and technological projects, including systematic consideration of space development and utilization, such as on-orbit service of spacecraft and integrated information system between heaven and earth.

　　Deep blue — — Refers to the fields of cyberspace, information technology and artificial intelligence.

　　China occupies 167 seats in the latest list of the top 500 supercomputers in the world, and "Shenwei Light of Taihu Lake" tops the list. Tommy, Vice Minister of Science and Technology of China, revealed at the briefing that the research and development of quantum computers will be started in the future.

　　Xu Xu believes that the problem of information security and maintenance in modern cyberspace has become a key and difficult point. "The security of virtual space is very important for national rights and interests." He said that national cyber security is also "scientific and technological innovation 2030— — One of the major projects.

　　Tommy introduced, "Technological Innovation 2030— — There are 15 major projects, which will form a pattern of combining far and near with 16 major projects deployed in 2006, including quantum communication, intelligent manufacturing and robotics, clean coal utilization, comprehensive environmental management in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, etc. At present, the whole chain is being designed through a unified science and technology plan management platform.
