The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee once again proposed "persisting in opening to the outside world on a larger scale, in a wider field and at a deeper level". Unswervingly opening to the outside world in an all-round way has created opportunities to cope with the tremendous impact of the epidemic on the global economy, trade and investment. The Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee proposed that self-reliance in science and technology should be the strategic support for national development. At present, international scientific and technological cooperation is the general trend. We should actively integrate into the global innovation network and promote our own scientific and technological development through open cooperation.

The "Proposal" of the Tenth Five-Year Plan clearly puts forward "aiming at frontier fields such as artificial intelligence, quantum information, integrated circuits, life and health, brain science, biological breeding, aerospace science and technology, deep sea and so on", and these eight scientific and technological projects will be the important contents of strengthening international scientific and technological cooperation. In addition, cooperation in public health epidemic prevention and control, climate change, human health and other fields is also of great significance.
