“The labs will focus on the research of major basic sciences, strategic high technologies and system integration technologies,” Laiyan says.
“The labs will not be in a large number, but we’ll pilot new management and operation models to achieve big breakthroughs in major science-tech fields.”
The Chinese defence sector already has more than 400,000 scientific research staff and 300 research institutes Laiyan says.
