Recently, the Ministry of Science and Technology organized experts and scholars in related fields in China to discuss in depth the specific contents of the independent innovation of scientific instruments and discuss the priorities of China's scientific instrument and equipment work during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†so as to improve the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan for Research and Development of Scientific Instruments and Equipment". .
Scientific instruments and equipment are both the foundation of scientific research and the source and component of modern high-tech and information industries. For a long time, most of the laboratories in China have been equipped with experimental equipment imported from abroad. Of the investment in fixed assets for scientific research in China, 60% are for imported equipment, and a large part of these are key high-end instruments. If the total volume of imported analytical instruments soared from 900 million U.S. dollars in 2001 to 1.613 billion U.S. dollars in 2003, it exceeded 2 billion U.S. dollars in 2004 and continues to climb at a rate of about 30% every year.
Therefore, in November 2005, the Department of Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences submitted a report to the relevant authorities on the "Strengthening China's Scientific Instrument's Capacity for Independent R&D and Industrialization and Implementation of the "Zhang Heng Project"", which has been highly valued by the government.
