Not the economic slowdown or heavy local government debt, nor a trade war with the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The meeting in Beijing, called the National People\u2019s Congress, was once a stage for Communist Party leaders to make a show of public consultation. Congress delegates, although handpicked by the party, sometimes <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.globaltimes.cn\/content\/768697.shtml\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">chided officials<\/a> over problems like pollution. There were even rare flashes of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/world\/china-s-wen-rebukes-key-leadership-contender-idUSDEE82D07C\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">discord among senior officials<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Xi, though, has turned the meeting into a meticulously orchestrated, weeklong salute to himself and his vision. This time, he urged China to forge ahead in advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, biotechnology and new weapons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cXi has seen how decades of investment into science by the U.S. government after World War II was a knockout success for the United States, and wants to replicate that,\u201d said <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rand.org\/pubs\/commentary\/2025\/02\/dont-be-fooled-advanced-chips-are-important-for-national.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Jimmy Goodrich<\/a>, who studies China\u2019s science policies as a senior adviser at RAND, an organization that provides analysis to the U.S. government and other clients.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cHe believes strongly that only by being more self-sufficient and a global leader in science can China achieve success in upgrading its economy, boosting its military capabilities and achieving world-leader status,\u201d Mr. Goodrich said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Xi\u2019s implicit message is that other efforts, such as restoring the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/17\/business\/china-xi-jinping-jack-ma.html\" title=\"\">confidence of China\u2019s private entrepreneurs<\/a><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/09\/07\/world\/asia\/china-xi-common-prosperity.html\" title=\"\">,<\/a> must align with that bigger national goal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The annual congress allows Mr. Xi to give his priorities the gloss of public approval. Dissenting votes from the nearly 3,000 delegates have become exceedingly rare.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Xi\u2019s agenda told the story. On the first day of the congress, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.news.cn\/politics\/20250305\/ddb5fbf24b6b44ff8173bffd5acde14e\/c.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Mr. Xi met with delegates<\/a> from Jiangsu Province \u2014 an industrial powerhouse \u2014 and told them to \u201cseize on scientific and technological innovation.\u201d The delegates were shown on state television diligently writing down his comments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On the second day, Mr. Xi <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.news.cn\/politics\/leaders\/20250306\/113f7599b0fe403db734ec66411082a2\/c.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">heard reports from scientists and education officials<\/a> and emphasized the role of education in building China into a \u201cscience and technology great power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On the third day, Mr. Xi put on his green military uniform to meet members of the People\u2019s Liberation Army. He <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.81.cn\/jwtt\/16373510.html\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">demanded that China\u2019s military<\/a> become more efficient in implementing modernization plans, rooting out graft, and also more nimble in applying advanced technologies to \u201caccelerate the development of qualitatively new combat capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The public summary of his comments gave no details, but China\u2019s military has been working on next-generation jet fighters, unmanned drones, new submarines and other weapons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Xi\u2019s priorities were also reflected in <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/npcobserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/2025-MOF-Report_NON-FINAL_ZH.pdf\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">China\u2019s annual budget<\/a>, which projects that government spending on science and technology will rise by 8.3 percent this year, on education by 6.1 percent and on the military by 7.2 percent. The government set more modest increases of around 5 percent in spending on health care and social welfare.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Chinese government\u2019s science and technology budget this year is equal to about $172 billion, second to the United States. But <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/25\/climate\/trump-nsf-cuts-antarctica.html\" title=\"\">government cuts<\/a> under Mr. Trump could narrow the U.S. lead. Including investment from businesses, the United States spent $806 billion on research and development in 2021, compared to $668 billion in China, according to an estimate <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/ncses.nsf.gov\/pubs\/nsb20243\/discovery-u-s-and-global-r-d\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">last year<\/a> from the U.S. National Science Foundation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cOver the past six or seven years of U.S.-China strategic competition, the two most important issues have been geopolitics and technology,\u201d said <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/eastasia.nccu.edu.tw\/PageStaffing\/Detail?fid=3022&amp;id=597\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Wang Hsin-hsien<\/a>, a professor at National Chengchi University in Taipei who studies Chinese politics. \u201cIn China they probably see that there may be a little less pressure on them geopolitically, but there won\u2019t be any easing up from Trump on the technology front.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Some critics have argued that Mr. Xi\u2019s bet on futuristic goals comes at the cost of providing help to Chinese citizens struggling to make ends meet. The economy is still sagging under a steep fall in housing prices. The number of retirees is growing and the birthrate has slumped. Yet Mr. Xi appears insistent that China can overcome its problems by tilting spending to technological projects and upgrading industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">So far, Mr. Xi has not indicated a willingness to rein in China\u2019s export drive after Mr. Trump imposed additional tariffs on goods from China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Nor does Mr. Xi seem worried about any threats to his political dominance. After more than 12 years in power, he has given <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/10\/22\/world\/asia\/china-xi-jinping-congress.html\" title=\"\">no sign of choosing a successor<\/a>. The retired leaders who may once have hemmed in his power have mostly passed away. He has never slackened his tight grip on the key levers of power, such as the Ministry of State Security, said <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brookings.edu\/people\/jonathan-a-czin\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Jonathan Czin<\/a>, a researcher at the Brookings Institution who formerly worked in the Central Intelligence Agency and studies <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prcleader.org\/post\/burying-deng-xi-jinping-and-the-abnormalization-of-chinese-politics\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Chinese politics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cSo far, I see zero evidence of meaningful cracks in Xi\u2019s control. Who at this point in Xi\u2019s tenure would have the temerity to challenge Xi?\u201d Mr. Czin said. \u201cHe wields the anti-corruption apparatus like a cudgel, ready to bludgeon any potential opponent.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/11\/world\/asia\/china-xi-trump.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throughout China\u2019s annual legislative meeting, the national leader Xi Jinping made clear that he wants nothing to hold back his<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12039,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[349,1328,3968,3967,3575,1009,419],"class_list":["post-12038","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-china","tag-communist-party-of-china","tag-jiangsu-province-china","tag-ministry-of-state-security-of-the-peoples-republic-of-china","tag-national-peoples-congress-china","tag-science-and-technology","tag-xi-jinping"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What Slowdown?
