Building Zhongguancun into the Silicon Valley of China is the goal of the Beijing Municipal Government, but we should not be blindly optimistic. By comparing Zhongguancun with Silicon Valley in the United States, we can see the gap between Zhongguancun and advanced enterprises. By the end of 1998, there were more than 8, enterprises in Silicon Valley with an annual turnover of nearly $2 billion. There are more than 4, enterprises in Zhongguancun, with an annual gross income of 4 billion RMB. Behind the digital differences, there are also huge technical differences. There are three reasons why Silicon Valley in the United States has become the world's information industry kingdom: First, employees are shareholders, and stock options play a huge role; The second is the mode of ideas plus talents plus funds; Third, information exchange with barriers; These three points must be based on a good policy platform. As Guo Lihong, Minister of Technology and Economy of China the State Council Development Research Center, said: While comparing Silicon Valley and Zhongguancun, we should also see the institutional factors of technological differences. Technology, capital and talents are variables based on the system. As long as we establish a mechanism to encourage technological innovation, enterprises will have the motivation to continuously promote technology generation and renewal, and people will have the impulse to innovate. Zhongguancun can completely develop from foreign technology to core technology like Hsinchu, Taiwan Province. Zhongguancun must clean up the disadvantages that are not conducive to the flow of factors.

From the recent media reports on Zhongguancun, we have seen the unremitting efforts made by the state leaders, the Beijing Municipal Government and people from all walks of life in the Science Park. The government gives great support, giving preferential conditions to land, taxation, talent flow, etc., attracting a large number of overseas students, attracting and retaining scientific and technological talents with preferential conditions, working hand in hand with universities, establishing venture funds, accelerating technological achievements into productivity, actively encouraging the initiative and enthusiasm of scientific and technological talents to start businesses, opening up various channels in terms of funds, attracting international venture capital funds, and vigorously supporting emerging technology enterprises to go public for direct financing. The Beijing Municipal Government even put forward the slogan of "Digital Beijing" to support the rapid rise of Zhongguancun Science Park. Although we know that Zhongguancun still has a long way to go to develop into a "Silicon Valley", it will not happen overnight, but as long as we realize the urgency of developing science and technology and the gap with advanced enterprises in the world, we will first be fully prepared ideologically. With the further implementation of the national strategy of "rejuvenating the country through science and education", Zhongguancun will certainly become China. At present, the whole world is waiting to see.
