"OECD’s data also illustrate China’s rise to become a scientific powerhouse over the past 15 years, and is now in second place, behind the US. The country has tripled its high-impact scientific efforts and now produces 14 per cent of the top 10 per cent of the world’s most cited publications."

First they say we don't produce scientific papers,
Then they say we produce papers but are not published in top journals
Then they say the quantity is too small
Then they say the quantity is a lot but the quality is lacking
What can they say now?

China to establish six new national research centers

(Xinhua) 07:51, November 28, 2017

BEIJING, Nov. 27 (Xinhua) -- China will build six new national research centers in a bid to transform the country into a leading power in science and technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology announced Monday.

The six are Beijing national research center for molecular sciences, Wuhan national research center for optoelectronics, Beijing national research center for condensed matter physics, Beijing national research center for information science and technology, Shenyang national research center for material science, Hefei national research center for physical sciences at the microscale.

The centers will be based on the current pilot national laboratories and discipline clusters, said Ye Yujiang, head of the ministry basic research department.

The ministry will speed up the building of the six national research centers and initiate new centers at proper time, Ye said, adding the country will initially establish a national research center system by 2020.

China has set the targets of establishing itself as one of the most innovative countries by 2020 and a leading innovator by 2030 before becoming a world-leading S&T power by the centenary anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 2049.

Lol, the more they bash, the more we improve, have always been that way. Contrast that with our argumentative neighbor.

then they will say results of most of these research papers can not be commercialized anytime soon. But if we make part of them commercialized, then they will say China is short eye-sighted and only interested in the projects that could bring immediate benefits.

To be honest, that's really a perfect logic system.

When it comes to belittling others' achievements or excusing their own incompetence, they will never run out of arguments, never.

China could catch the US in the next ten years.

When you look at the trend, there is a good possibility that China could contest the United States for world leadership in the most cited top scientific research publications.

In the ten year period from 2005 to 2016, the US DECREASED from 40% to 25% of the world's most cited scientific publications. This is a loss of 15 percentage points.

In contrast, China moved from 4% to 14%. This is a gain of 10 percentage points.

Since China is investing more money into science research and the United States is cutting its science budget, China could conceivably catch the United States within 10 years.

Trump budget seeks huge cuts to science and medical research, disease prevention | The Washington Post (May 23, 2017)
"The National Cancer Institute would be hit with a $1 billion cut compared to its 2017 budget. The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute would see a $575 million cut, and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases would see a reduction of $838 million. The administration would cut the overall National Institutes of Health budget from $31.8 billion to $26 billion.

The National Science Foundation, which dispenses grants to a variety of scientific research endeavors, would be trimmed $776 million, an 11 percent cut.
...
Rush Holt, CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, said a preliminary analysis indicates that the Trump budget would cut about 17 percent from the overall federal research effort. Holt, a physicist and former Democratic congressman from New Jersey, said cuts to research would have long-term economic implications."

Let's work hard and achieve better scientific success regardless of others succeed or fail. Success not conditioned upon others' failures is the most valuable.

I think, on per capita basis, China still lags behind many countries, but, a big country as China would not necessarily need to catch up small-population countries in per capita scientific production.

The overall size and the scale is as important as per capita production.

Doesn't matter your passport or language, as long as you have Chinese blood in your soul, you always uphold work hard in your daily life @TaiShang @AndrewJin @nature is @lcloo

Work hard is part of our culture
We proud of it and this is known by people from other parts of world

Well said. Working hard is a definite element in one's success. Chinese words is 吃苦，"Eat Bitter", or the ability to endure hardship.

Another element is 活到老学到老， meaning never stop learning new knowledge until the day your kick the bucket. People who stopped learning never progress, and will watch others passed them by, technologically and economically.

There are many other element of successes but the two above is enough for personal success in one's life.
