quality market entities. We should steer producer services toward greater
specialization and the higher end of the value chain on a sector-by-sector

basis, while supporting the development of higher-quality, more diverse, and
more accessible consumer services. We should promote the integration of
modern services with advanced manufacturing and modern agriculture and

advance the digital and intelligent transformation of the service sector. We
should step up efforts to improve standards, enhance quality, and build
brands, and refine the statistical and monitoring systems for the service

sector.
10. Developing a modernized infrastructure system
Infrastructure planning should be better coordinated to improve its layout

and structure, drive integrated development, and ensure that infrastructure is
safe, resilient, and sustainable. New types of infrastructure should be built
with appropriate forward planning. Information and communication

networks, the national integrated computing network, major science and
technology infrastructure, and other key systems should be further developed
and used intensively and efficiently. Traditional infrastructure should be

upgraded and retrofitted with digital and intelligent technologies.
We should improve the modern integrated transportation system,
strengthening cross-regional coordination and planning, promoting

multimodal integration, and improving transportation links and services in
remote areas. We should enhance the diversity and resilience of international
transportation routes. In the energy sector, efforts should be made to optimize

the layout of primary arteries and develop new types of infrastructure. We
should accelerate the development of a modern water network and enhance
our capacity to prevent floods, coordinate the allocation of water resources,

and ensure water supply in both urban and rural areas. We should continue
to develop dual-use public infrastructure that can accommodate emergency
needs in the cities.

IV. Achieving Greater Self-Reliance and Strength in Science and
Technology and Steering the Development of New Quality Productive
Forces

Chinese modernization must be underpinned by modernization in science
and technology. We must seize the historic opportunity presented by the new

round of technological revolution and industrial transformation to boost
