The Chinese government has launched a 10-year campaign to cultivate more than 10,000 talented individuals in science and technology fields. It is an important move to consolidate a foundation for the country's development, says an article by Xinhua News Agency.

The project, titled "National Plan for the Special Support of High-level Talent", aims to support 100 scientists who have made breakthroughs in leading fields and have the potential to become "world-class scientists", according to a statement released on Wednesday after a meeting of the Central Coordination Group for Talent Work.
