on september 20, guangdong's overseas returnees celebrated the 75th anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china and launched a series of activities to promote high-quality development under the theme of "returnees gather wisdom to serve the country and make contributions" at guangzhou zhengjia plaza. the event was guided by the united front work department of the guangdong provincial party committee and hosted by the guangdong western returned scholars association.
during the event, relevant responsible persons from the united front work department of the guangdong provincial party committee emphasized that the guangdong european and american returned scholars association should bear in mind its responsibilities and missions, focus on the overall situation, build a brand for returnees, highlight the high-quality development achievements such as the construction of the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area, the "hundred million project", and the ecological construction of green guangdong, and create a strong atmosphere of celebrating the birthday and working together in unity.
the event consisted of two parts: a themed dialogue and a themed performance, attracting more than 400 returnees.
the theme dialogue revolved around topics such as artificial intelligence, low-altitude economy, rural revitalization, and sustainable development. high-level returnees and outstanding industry representatives expressed their opinions and shared their personal insights and experiences from the dimensions of market economy, scientific and technological innovation, green development, and social culture. they interpreted the importance of studying abroad to serve the country, which aroused strong resonance among the majority of returnees.
heng yi, deputy secretary-general of the guangdong western returned scholars association and dual-appointed professor at the school of computer science and the school of systems science and engineering of sun yat-sen university, said that the current development of artificial intelligence has brought new challenges to network security, such as data pollution and vulnerability disguise, which require joint efforts from the government, enterprises, universities and other parties to promote solutions.
"guangdong has done a lot of work in this regard and is at the forefront of the country. the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area has significant advantages in developing artificial intelligence technology because it has a good industrial foundation, provides a wealth of high-quality test sites, has many universities and research institutions, and the linkage between guangdong, hong kong and macao has brought a solid research foundation and outstanding innovation capabilities. it has a good ecological environment and leading industrial chain and supply chain development."
in the dialogue on the theme of low-altitude economy, xue peng, vice president of ehang intelligent equipment (guangzhou) co., ltd., pointed out that there are four key points in the future work of low-altitude economy, namely the construction of a comprehensive drone laboratory, the construction of airworthiness certification capabilities and operational certification capabilities, infrastructure construction, and support system construction. this view was recognized by the guests present. xue peng believes that the current development of the domestic low-altitude economy has obvious regional characteristics, among which guangzhou's low-altitude economy has significant industrial characteristics, such as the fields of agricultural plant protection and vertical travel, and the matching of talents and supply chains is very mature.
in july this year, ehang's application for an operating certificate for its intelligent unmanned manned aircraft was accepted by the civil aviation administration of china. xue peng said that he is optimistic that the operating certificate can be obtained this year, making "air taxis" a reality. "in the future, people can choose an 'air taxi' by clicking on a mobile phone app, just like choosing an online car-hailing service."
"today's theme dialogue has selected four hot topics at the moment, and invited guests from various sub-sectors to share their thoughts and specific practices in the industry, hoping to inspire and encourage more young returnees to devote themselves to the process of technological change and social development."
xie meng, vice president of the guangdong western returned scholars association and vice chairman and ceo of zhengjia group, said that the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area has the gene of courage to blaze new trails, the soil to adapt to change, the environment to tolerate experimentation and innovation, and obvious advantages in policy and institutional guarantees, especially in the protection of intellectual property rights. it has a mature talent echelon and a complete training system, which has a strong appeal for returned overseas talents to stay and start businesses.
afterwards, in the theme performance session, the stage play "returning from the starry sea: patriotic ode" choreographed by the guangdong overseas chinese returnees association and the song and dance programs selected by the overseas chinese returnees associations in various cities were splendid. they eulogized the patriotic spirit of the pioneers of studying abroad in pursuit of truth and dedication to their country, and demonstrated the vigorous and enterprising spirit of guangdong returnees in the new era.
representatives of the returnees all expressed that they will inherit and promote the glorious tradition of studying abroad to serve the country, actively participate in the tide of innovation, entrepreneurship and creation, and contribute their wisdom and strength to the efforts to push guangdong to be at the forefront in promoting china's modernization drive.
