Helping the public to understand science is the responsibility of scientists, and only when science is widely understood by the public, can it develop. The popularization of science should spread awareness of scientific knowledge and its resulting social impact, and in China, key groups should include teenagers, young adults as well as the elderly, as society is rapidly aging.

Over the past two years, domestic scientists have worked hard to achieve sustainable development goals through the power of science and technology. They have shared data with the world and promoted sustainable development through the power of data, which is the common language of human beings, and I think is also a form of knowledge transmission.

In the construction of our country's current international communication system, we must create a strategic communication system with distinctive Chinese characteristics, and boost the influence of international communication, the attraction of Chinese culture, affinity toward China, the persuasiveness of Chinese discourse, and the ability to shape international public opinion.

China has a unique skill set in terms of disseminating healthcare and technological advances, and of being able to disseminate the knowledge to people within China and other countries, which is important to scientists or doctors or even laymen. We can see how healthcare, public health and science news are becoming more accessible to people.

While telling the stories of China's science and technology, we should not only share the facts of science and technology development, but also speak of the human element in science and technology.
