Cooperation in scientific and technological innovation is an important part of cooperation in jointly building the "Belt and Road". The second "Belt and Road" Science and Technology Exchange Conference was grandly held in Chengdu. Friends from all over the world gathered again in the beautiful country of Tianfu. Everyone sincerely exchanged, built consensus, deepened cooperation, and injected new impetus into global scientific and technological innovation and development.

As a key force in promoting economic development, improving people's livelihood and responding to global challenges, scientific and technological innovation is a key area for jointly building the "Belt and Road" and a key direction for common concern to all countries. The "Belt and Road" Science and Technology Exchange Conference personally deployed by President Xi Jinping has become an important platform for jointly building countries to strengthen scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation and empower the development of new quality productivity. Since the first conference was held, my country has upheld the spirit of the innovative Silk Road of unity, cooperation, openness and inclusiveness, mutual learning and mutual benefit and win-win situation, and has worked hand in hand with countries jointly building the "Belt and Road" to build the "Belt and Road". The mechanism of scientific and technological cooperation is becoming increasingly deepened, cultural exchanges among countries have become increasingly close, and the results of innovative cooperation are becoming increasingly fruitful.

This conference practices the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind, adheres to consultation, joint construction and sharing, and takes the theme of "Constructing the Path of Co-construction, Promoting Cooperation and Development - Working together to build a 'Belt and Road' Science and Technology Innovation Community", and creates an open, inclusive, mutual learning and mutual learning platform, promotes cross-field and cross-regional scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation between countries, and provides strong scientific and technological support for the high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road". This conference received positive response from countries jointly building the "Belt and Road" and participated in many countries, covered a wide range of fields, and expected fruitful results. Under the framework of jointly building the "Belt and Road", we will jointly grasp the opportunities of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, continue to promote the construction of a multi-level and multi-field scientific and technological exchange and cooperation mechanism, build a number of "industry, education, research and application" exchange and cooperation platforms, and promote scientific and technological achievements to benefit people of all countries more.

The "Belt and Road" Science and Technology Exchange Conference is a landmark event to promote the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle to go deeper and more practical. In recent years, major opportunities such as jointly building the "Belt and Road", the development of the western region in the new era, and the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle have been intersected and superimposed by Sichuan and Chongqing. Building a science and technology innovation center with national influence is the strategic positioning given by the central government to the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin Cities Economic Circle. The conference will promote the continuous deepening of international scientific and technological cooperation between Sichuan and Chongqing, the continuous expansion of the scientific and technological cooperation network, the in-depth promotion of international joint research and development, and the accelerated development of international technology transfer. This conference launched the "Double Thousand" plan for scientific and technological cooperation in the Chengdu-Chongqing region, which will usher in a new stage of scientific and technological innovation cooperation between Sichuan and Chongqing and the joint construction of the country. Sichuan has unique resource endowment, complete industrial system and strong scientific and technological strength. It is steadily promoting the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation, accelerating the creation of an innovation highland in the western region and a strategic highland for opening up to the west. It has broad prospects for scientific and technological cooperation and great potential for innovation and development.

Only by unity can we win-win, and only by working together can we make progress together. Looking to the future, we hope to work with all parties to build a pragmatic and efficient platform for scientific and technological exchanges and mutual learning, discuss scientific and technological development, promote innovation and cooperation, create a better future together, and make positive contributions to the high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road" and the construction of a global scientific and technological innovation community.
