中文(ZH) 国务院国资委:2025年中央企业基础研究投入首破千亿元

China's SOEs to invest $100B in basic research by 2025

China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) announced that central state-owned enterprises will invest over 100 billion yuan in basic research by 2025, a significant increase from 56.5 billion yuan in 2021. This initiative is part of a broader trend where these enterprises have consistently exceeded one trillion yuan in R&D investment annually during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. Separately, reports suggest that ByteDance's AI4S team is undergoing organizational adjustments, though a spokesperson denied any plans for a spin-off, stating the team is now managed by Yang Zhenyuan.
