Abstract: It is of great strategic significance to support some central State-owned enterprises (SOEs) which are the industrial leaders committed to build themselves into the world’s first-class enterprises. The purpose is to improve their original innovative capability and solve the problem that China’s key core technologies are controlled by other countries. The study points out that central SOEs face some problems at the present time, such as inadequate basic research capability and insufficient supply of innovative technologies. Those problems can be attributed to four reasons -- lack of elite scientists, inadequacy of stable basic research investment, lack of special basic research institutions, and lack of original creative achievements to drive basic research. There are four main factors causing those problems, such as tobe- improved motivation, unscientific management methods, restrictions from the talent system, and lack of freedom in cultural exploration. It is proposed that the governmental department should make greater efforts for guidance, optimize the performance-examining system, try to establish a fund for guidance, and optimize the auditing work. It is also proposed that the central SOEs should launch relatively independent research institutions, set up a flexible management mechanism, create the conditions to attract scientists, and bring about a harmonious scientific research environment.
