China's software and information technology service industry has maintained rapid development, which is an inevitable trend for China to vigorously develop the digital economy .
General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out, "Continuously strengthen, optimize and expand my country's digital economy" " digital technology, , digital economy is the first opportunity for the world's technological revolution and industrial transformation, and it is a key area of a new round of international competition. We must grasp Seize the opportunity and seize the commanding heights of future development.” Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen key core technology research, accelerate the construction of new infrastructure, promote the integrated development of the digital economy and the real economy, promote the development of digital industries in key areas, regulate the development of the digital economy, improve the digital economy governance system, and actively participate in international digital economy cooperation.
"The 14th Five-Year Plan for the National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China and the Outline of the Vision for 2035 " also proposes to create new advantages in the digital economy, accelerate the pace of digital society construction, improve the construction level of the digital government, and create Good digital ecology. It is necessary to strengthen the innovation and application of key digital technologies, accelerate the promotion of digital industrialization and industrial digitization, give full play to the advantages of massive data and rich application scenarios, promote the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy, give birth to new industries, new formats and new models, and enable the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. .
Software is mentioned five times in the "14th Five-Year Plan" outline. The role of the digital economy in the economy and society is to meet the growing information needs of the people. Software is a key part of the application of information technology. Software and hardware complement each other to form an information system. Abundant and low-cost software will promote the adoption of hardware and information systems. Hardware in the computer field is still dominated today by big international companies like Intel . However, the digital application scenarios of software are very rich. Even if companies such as Microsoft , Apple and other companies dominate the operating system, the software industry still has the potential to blossom. Digital application scenarios such as smart transportation, smart energy, smart manufacturing, smart agriculture and water conservancy, smart education, smart medical care, smart cultural tourism, smart community , smart home , and smart government affairs require the combination of software and hardware to form a digital information system . China's huge population size and economic size determine the huge market potential of the software industry.
The development of China's digital economy is still in its infancy, and the software industry will maintain a relatively high growth rate for a long time to come. In August, the production index of information transmission, software and information technology services increased by 8.9%, 7.1 percentage points higher than the national service production index. From January to August, the total profit of software and information technology service enterprises increased by 3.6% year-on-year, 5.7 percentage points higher than the profit growth rate of industrial enterprises above designated size.

From January to August, the R&D intensity of the software industry exceeded 7%, and the average R&D expenditure in the industry increased by more than 24% year-on-year. It is necessary to vigorously cultivate software talents, and cultivate software talents that meet the needs of the digital age in universities and scientific research institutions through the integration of production and education. To strengthen intellectual property protection , encourage software technology innovation and research and development of excellent original software. To promote the agglomeration development of the software industry, agglomeration is conducive to the diffusion of technology, talents and knowledge, and strive to build a number of famous software cities and software industrial parks.
