We should deepen reform of project reviews, institution assessments,
talent evaluations, and income distribution to give greater weight to

innovation capability, performance, outcomes, and contributions. We should
open up channels for personnel flows between higher education institutions,
research institutes, and enterprises to boost the dynamism and vitality for

innovation and creation. We should deepen international exchanges and
cooperation and establish an immigration system for highly-skilled personnel
to attract and cultivate talent from around the world.

14. Advancing the Digital China Initiative
We should refine our foundational systems for data as a factor of
production, foster an integrated national data market characterized by

openness, sharing, and security, and advance the development and utilization
of data resources. We should promote full integration between the real
economy and the digital economy and advance the project for the innovative

development of the Industrial Internet. We should accelerate innovation in
digital and intelligent technologies such as AI, make breakthroughs in basic
theories and core technologies, and ensure more efficient supply of

computing power, algorithms, and data.
The AI Plus Initiative should be advanced across the board. We should
steer the transformation of scientific research paradigms with AI, apply AI

tools in industrial development, cultural advancement, public wellbeing
initiatives, and social governance, and strive to gain the edge in AI industrial
application. All these efforts will facilitate AI empowerment in all sectors on

all fronts. We must also strengthen governance over AI and refine relevant
laws, regulations, policies, systems, application standards, and ethical codes.
We should conduct sound regulation of the platform economy to promote its

innovative and healthy development.

spending and combine investment in physical assets with investment in
human capital. We should see that new demand drives new supply, new

supply helps create fresh demand, and positive interactions are fostered
