China is lighting up the global tech scene! ✨ The country has made remarkable strides in laser technology, breaking decades of foreign dominance and securing its spot among the world’s front-runners.
According to Ma Xinqiang, deputy to the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) and chairman of Huagong Technology, China's advancements are not just impressive but also crucial. Laser technology plays a pivotal role in manufacturing, being integral to 70% of components in industries like smartphones 📱 and automotive 🚗 production.
Historically, foreign technology controls limited China’s growth in this sector. However, with a strong emphasis on domestic innovation, China has successfully overcome these barriers. "We’ve prioritized innovation to reduce dependencies and enhance our capabilities," Ma shared during a group interview ahead of the second plenary meeting of the third session of the 14th NPC.
This breakthrough not only boosts China’s tech prowess but also has significant implications for global markets, professionals, and young entrepreneurs looking to stay ahead in the game. Stay tuned as China continues to drive innovation and set new standards in laser technology!
