On the Phenomenon of "Acquiringism" of Domestic Scientific Instruments

Editor's note: Mr. Lu Xun once said that "everything good is a common heritage of mankind. In the process of development, China should absorb foreign good things and things that are beneficial to China's progress. This should be the true meaning of the doctrine." "We have adopted reform and opening up to the present, and we have absorbed many foreign advanced cultures and technologies with "acquired doctrine." The country's economy has developed rapidly, but blindly "acquisitionism" has led to the development of many industries. Falling from the lower layers, some industries have been separated from the right track of development, and “shanzhai” products that “have only their shape and no meaning” have emerged. The instrument industry as a high-tech area is no exception, and the industrialization of our country’s scientific instruments should be How to achieve it.

Mr. Lu Xun’s “acquiring doctrine” has three meanings. One is: “occupy”, that is, “regardless of whether it is 31, 21,” or “choose,” that is, “to use the mind, to release his vision, to come take! "The three are "innovation", that is, "the owner is the new owner, and the house will become the new house." "Private" and "selecting" are to promote new things and create new things.

The author points out that the current phenomenon of the science instrument industry in China is the stage of "occupation" and "choosing". Whenever we see foreign instruments continue to introduce new products, see new foreign instrument products springing up, and then look at our domestic instrument industry, even a few years can not get a few decent new products and new instruments!

When we walk into various large laboratories and see imported instruments, what do you think of as a manufacturer? When we use a variety of imported instruments, why don't we feel the lag in domestically produced instruments? In an instrument market that depends on service and quality, how much influence does the price advantage of domestic instruments have?

As we have been paying attention to the information of the instrument industry, we are deeply impressed by the fact that China’s instrument industry now needs more than just “engagement” and “selection”, but it should be further “innovation” and innovation. Features. But now the social environment, how many instrument industry entrepreneurs and R & D personnel can calm down and do practical things, are all thinking about how to come fast, how to do it, make it go away, see you soon! This also led to the social strange phenomenon of "businessmen publishing books and experts conducting business." There are still many people doing basic research. Many of the core components of the instrument are imported. Many of the instrument manufacturers' product development methods are to split foreign instruments, copy their originals in combination, and many device designs. There are deviations in theory, leading to order-level differences in instrumental indicators.

Why is it so difficult to "stones from other hills to attack jade?"

Why domestic instruments always follow the pace of foreign instruments, we do not want to go beyond, I believe that this and our country's education system has a certain influence, although all aspects of quality education development. Actually, we still study the book all day in school. Many developed countries, however, focus on developing students' hands-on capabilities and innovation capabilities. Many of us graduating from school are bound by the knowledge of the books and only pay attention to the test results. Other people are naughty and good students. Our country is a bad boy many times. This invisibly kills the unconsciousness of human innovation consciousness. Only theory without practical ability is not enough. We stand on the shoulders of giants but cannot see further.

In many cases, we should not only know about the shortcomings and shortcomings of criticizing and accusing domestically-made instruments. In fact, we should all give more solutions and suggestions for feedback to the vast number of instrument manufacturers. Blindly criticized can only cause a bad blow to instrument manufacturers, and does not achieve any effect that is beneficial to the promotion of domestic instruments. The consensus of all of us is that we hope that domestic instruments will develop well and that many responsible instrument manufacturers and entrepreneurs would not think so.

Therefore, we want to achieve "the stones of other hills can attack the jade." We, the vast majority of instrument users, need to work together with instrument manufacturers to supervise, feedback and improve, and realize progress and surpass in imitation and innovation.

Let innovation be a kind of atmosphere. It is a habit how to achieve the “innovation” level of “receivingism”. We do not do enough to innovate and break through. Imitation is only to a certain extent, it is not to be dropped by others, but it must be surpassed. It is more difficult. We blindly follow up and imitate the experiment with other mature technologies and instruments. It is difficult for such experiments to be innovative.

The proportion of China’s scientific instrument purchases and independent research and development investment is seriously distorted. Simply put, the money we spend on buying other people's equipment is far greater than the amount of money we spend on equipment research and development. In recent years, the scientific instrument industry has seen a re-important and lightly self-developed phenomenon. And the reality is the same. The real experimental scientific research work that is expected to be world-leading must rely on advanced scientific research instruments with its own characteristics, and in particular those instruments that have been independently developed using many new principles, new methods and new technologies.

At present, the country’s investment funds for scientific instruments are increasing year by year. This shows that the state is paying more and more attention to the development of independent industries of advanced scientific instruments. Then how to use these funds to make use of the actual situation, how to create more scientific instruments belonging to our country, so that domestic instruments flourish? How to innovate and seek development? It is a problem that we must face and solve.

The author believes that innovation must start from two aspects. The first is the cultivation of innovative talents, which is fundamental and allows schools to cultivate more innovative talents. Secondly, it should be the establishment and improvement of the enterprise innovation system, which allows companies to instill more innovative thinking in employees, give more room for innovation, and reward more innovation results. It is a habit to make innovation a kind of atmosphere. Under the macroscopic support of the country, the domestic scientific instrument industry will inevitably flourish. This is the right way to realize the industrialization of scientific instruments in China.
