In 2018 and 2019, the blockchain gained unprecedented attention in policy, and officially rose to the national strategic level in 2019, which also made domestic blockchain practitioners more confident.A blockchain professional popular science reading "Love with the Future-Entering the Blockchain Kingdom" compiled by the Securities Daily Financial Institutions Center takes you back to the two blockchain policy years of 2018 and 2019. And from a policy point of view, why the blockchain is so "valued".
In the new era, especially in 2018-2019, as a new generation of information technology, blockchain began to increasingly enter the strategic decision-making vision of decision-makers in China. The following facts are the best examples and manifestations.
The National 13th Five-Year Plan for Informatization, the 13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Information Technology in China’s Financial Industry, the blockchain white paper issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Industrial Internet Development Action Plan (2018-2020) have appeared one after another.
On February 18, 2019, People’s Daily, the official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, published a reporter’s article "Enhancing the Ability of Scientific and Technological Innovation-Grasping the Important Strategic Opportunity for China’s Development" in an important position on the front page. The article points out that "a new generation of information technology, represented by artificial intelligence, quantum information, mobile communication, Internet of Things and blockchain, is accelerating its breakthrough application … A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is reconstructing the global innovation landscape and reshaping the global economic structure".
期间,还有两件重要大事要强调:一是2018年5月28日,习总书记在中国科学院第十九次院士大会、中国工程院第十四次院士大会上发表重要讲话,明确地将区块链与人工智能、量子信息、移动通信、物联网一道列为新一代信息技术的代表。二是2019年8月18日,中共中央、国务院印发的《关于支持深圳建设中国特色社会主义先行示范区的意见》中明确提出,要支持在深圳开展数字货币研究与移动支付等创新应用。
10月24日,本来是个普通的日子,但从历史上看,又不是普通的一天。
10月24日,是每年一度的“联合国日”。同时我们竟然还发现这一天还是一个非常有趣、少有人知、又存在无数“梗”的“程序员节日”。
2019年的这一天,对中国区块链行业的发展来说,更有了新的时代意义:区块链从这一天开始正式上升为中国的国家战略:区块链成为中国核心技术自主创新的重要突破口。
10月24日当天,星期四,下午中共中央政治局就区块链技术发展现状和趋势进行了第十八次集体学习。中共中央总书记最高领袖在主持学习时强调,区块链技术的集成应用在新的技术革新和产业变革中起着重要作用。我们要把区块链作为核心技术自主创新的重要突破口,明确主攻方向,加大投入力度,着力攻克一批关键核心技术,加快推动区块链技术和产业创新发展。
会上,最高领袖强调,要强化基础研究,提升原始创新能力,努力让我国在区块链这个新兴领域走在理论最前沿、占据创新制高点、取得产业新优势。总书记在此用“最”“高”“新”三个字向全国人民提出了区块链发展的高标准和严要求。总书记同时还提出了“区块链+”的概念,明确提出三大融合,即加快区块链和人工智能、大数据、物联网等前沿信息技术的深度融合,与实体经济的融合以及与民生领域的融合。习总书记提出的加强基础技术研究、行业应用落地以及与科技、经济和社会深度融合等观点,无疑对中国区块链行业的未来发展和创新突破方向,给出了十分清晰的回答。
At this important meeting, Chen Chun, a professor at Zhejiang University and an academician of China Academy of Engineering, gave a related explanation on blockchain. The next day, on October 25, Xinhua News Agency released a major report on "Accelerating the Development of Blockchain Technology and Industrial Innovation". On the evening of October 25, CCTV broadcasted the speech of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on the blockchain technology industry, deeply touching the essence of the industry and the status quo, opportunities and breakthrough points of the blockchain for 5 minutes and 29 seconds. In fact, this is not surprising, and it is not difficult to understand. On the contrary, it makes people awake and suddenly enlightened.
Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.As a leading indicator of society, the stock market took the lead in making a strong response. The Chinese concept stocks in the American stock market could not bear loneliness as soon as they opened, and rose strongly.Among them, after the release of Xinhua News Agency, xnet, which was in a loss state, rose 107.76% to close at 4.820 US dollars at 16: 00 EST on October 25th. The company’s website shows that this is a company that provides services such as intelligent contract development, blockchain application landing, blockchain business ecological construction, and touches all walks of life including physical industry, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and life sciences. Other related concept stocks also rose well, such as the ninth city.
In the domestic stock market, since October 25th is Friday, this news reached its climax on October 28th (Monday) after a weekend of "blockchain".For the performance of A-shares on that day, a report in Securities Daily said, "How many blockchain companies have a daily limit of more than 100?" ",widely reprinted and quoted by major websites and industry insiders. The article said, "On October 28, the blockchain became a popular star in the capital market. As of the close of the day, various capitals in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets poured in, and more than 100 blockchain concept stocks had daily limit. At the same time, the problem of blockchain on the investor interaction platform has exploded. On October 28th alone, on the interactive platform of Shenzhen Stock Exchange, there were more than 1,000 interactive questions and answers about blockchain, exceeding the sum of the first half of the year. The article also said that the number of blockchain concept stocks doubled overnight, from more than 80 stocks to more than 170. Unfortunately, at present, only a few listed companies such as Far Light Software, Accurate Information and Easy-to-See Shares have actual income from blockchain projects.
On November 18, 2019, CCTV’s 13 sets of Focus Interview broadcasted a file "Blockchain is not a" withdrawal chain ",which generally reflected the real situation of the domestic blockchain market. In the program, Wu Zhen of the Key Laboratory of Internet Finance Security Technology of the National Internet Emergency Center disclosed in an interview that there are currently more than 30,000 enterprises related to blockchain in China, but less than 10% of enterprises actually own blockchain technology. Most enterprises only take advantage of the situation or create momentum, and some even implement various tricks.
At this meeting, although everyone knows that Academician Chen Chun explained the blockchain, because there is no detailed report, it is basically unclear what he specifically said. So someone "dug up" the content of his speech at the 2019CCF Blockchain Technology Conference held in Chengdu on October 12 that year. After all, this speech is closest to October 24th.At the Chengdu Conference, the topic of Chen Chun’s speech was "Key Technologies of Alliance Blockchain and Regulatory Challenges of Blockchain". He said that China has a global advantage in the construction of the underlying platform of the alliance chain, and the alliance chain is the main force for the future development of blockchain. The research focus of blockchain technology in China will focus on the key technologies of alliance blockchain and blockchain supervision, and it is suggested that the technology of data collaboration between the chain and the chain should be the next development direction.
Therefore, many people in China believe that it is possible for China to develop only alliance chains and promote the innovative development of such technologies.In this regard, Li Guang Gan, a researcher at the State Council Development Research Center, has his own unique views. He said that there are many types of blockchain, and different applications are very different. The alliance chain is not complicated, the most complicated is the public chain. The underlying architecture of the public chain is complex and requires higher requirements. If we only focus on the alliance chain, it seems that there is a great deficiency. He further explained that why should China emphasize the path and direction of public chain and alliance chain technology? This may be related to a policy background, that is, in 2017, the People’s Bank of China, together with several ministries and commissions, issued a special document to restrict the trading of encrypted digital coins and the issuance of tokens. Because the public chain has the characteristics of "issuing money", the alliance chain can have money or no money. It is understandable that the development of public chain is limited under this background.
